I guess that could be automated. My idea was that if getting something like 3 or 4 Popular Stories per week ever became a common occurence, that you would have a dedicated story promotion day, like making one announcement for all of them every Sunday. But the current influx of stories into the Popular Stories board is just a bit of catching up of what should have happned naturally over the last 4 or 5 months. So it feels like a lot right now. Just sort the stories in Public Stories by rating once per day and see if there is anything above 30. It's really easy to check.

Thank you!

Automation van be dine too, but takes coding and also risks removing the nice personal touch from mods and admins.

And we got our first Popular Story of 2026!

By the powers bestowed upon me by the phpBB forum software I grant @Darinost the title of Accomplished Writer for reaching a reputation of 30 on his story It Takes a Village. Congratulations!

I'm happy to be the one who sent your story over the threshold with my rating. :)

No surprises here. @Darinost writes solidly smutty material that keeps readers and characters properly engaged (for better or worse in that last group).
