Sociale has a new section in the News: Gossip. The stories of the room, told by the members: who was seen with whom, the funniest moments in the chat, what happened at the events and in the games, the news nobody tells you. And from today you can write it too.

How to apply

  1. Open Join the team and choose Gossip writer. You need a free Sociale account (at least 7 days old).
  2. Tell us why you want to write, what you would write about and add a short example of a gossip.
  3. Send it: the Main Owners of Sociale read every application and vote.

You get the answer in your notifications and in your support request. Gossip writers are part of the Sociale team, like the DJs of Sociale Radio: you find them on the Staff page, and they have their own group, SOCIALE GOSSIP, in Messages.

What writers get

  • The Gossip Writer badge on your profile, with a special Gossip photo frame and profile cover you can turn on if you like.
  • Sociale Premium for free, as long as you write the gossip: all the Premium perks, with nothing to pay.
  • More badges as you grow: First scoop with your first gossip, Gossip reporter at 10 and Gossip legend at 25.
  • Your name on every gossip: each one is a real article in the News, signed by you.

How you write a gossip

In the feed tap Publish and choose “A gossip for the News”. You get a full editor: title, summary, cover photo, bold, italic, underline, colours, lists, tables, photos, GIFs and YouTube videos. You can also add a poll that readers vote right in the article, and the card of a member. When you publish it, you can share it in your feed too.

Under every gossip everyone can comment, even without an account: it is a place to talk and to debate.

Free, but never vulgar

We want Sociale Gossip to be a free space without censorship: you can tell what happens in the room, say your opinion, share rumours and tease in a friendly way. We do not cut a gossip because it is uncomfortable or because someone does not like it.

But free does not mean vulgar. In Sociale Gossip there is no place for:

  • insults, vulgar words and bullying;
  • sexual content or sexual claims about people;
  • private data: real names next to usernames, addresses, phone numbers, screenshots of private chats;
  • serious accusations invented about someone, and anything about minors.

Right after you publish, our moderator reads the gossip, and the Main Owners can take down what breaks these rules. The same rules are valid for the comments.
