===== HOT RECS = HOT ART RECS = NEW POLICY =====

After much deliberation and prodding from many people, we have decided on a change in policy for the Hot Recs and Hot Art Recs.

Starting today, the dailysnitch allows recs from all fannish websites or social media platforms to count towards a Hot Rec or Hot Art Rec.

We now allow recs from:
– LiveJournal
– InsaneJournal
– DreamWidth
NEW – tumblr
NEW – twitter
NEW – Instagramm
NEW – FaceBoook
NEW – Wattpad
NEW – any other website or social media platform.

The recs need to be "real" recs as in, the reccer needs to state, in their own words, why they rec the fic or art. Just a "I rec this" or a collection of recommended fanfic/fanart is not enough.

The same rec posted on several platforms only counts as one rec.

For more information about Hot Recs/Hot Art, please refer to this post.

It’s a long journey from putting his foot in it all the time to at least trying to be a good one.
