One of the risks if a forum was to be created. The forum would just be pointless if it's going to be dead within weeks or even a month really :(Quote:

Maybe the system could be changed?
Like on Habbo you earn achievements for like logging in everyday, maybe we could base it around something like that. Maybe loosen it up a bit, as i doubt we'd have anyone who'd logged on every day for 5 years. But you know what i mean, think of different ways to reward the more dedicated users.
No one is going to take them seriously though. If they're practically unknown, then they will remain so. The extra features won't really boost their ego, they'll be considered a nobody :PQuote:

That is a REALLY long time to remain on a habbo forum, heck, a lot of us don't even play habbo and still come here. I still think that people who have been here longer should get some benefits similar to those who post loads.
Although it would be nice, I can't understand how a system like such can be put in place. After all, you already get rep power and ultimately VIP so what more can you give them. Oh and you've also got the six forum awards!
It's difficult to award things on forums, because what realistically can you reward them.
You keep going on about benefits but what realistically can you benefit them with. I don't think you could use user ranks are they're used to help promote posting rather than represent registry date.
Also the fact they're staying shows the forum must be doing something right, a few years ago there was nothing!
Giving rewards for actual time spent on the forum might also be a good idea as it would encourage people to use it more. The more rewards for more things the better i suppose :P
I don't think you got what i meant, i was only really using logging in as an example. What i meant was, it shouldn't SOLELY be on how long you have been a member of the forum for, it should be a factor of it but other factors should be included too. Because if we brought in some new features then there would have to be a way of defining who gets them and who doesn't and i think it should be done on a variety of factors, rather than just how old their account is. I mean i joined in 2007, but i left for around 2 years at the end of 2008, so i've really only been active on the forum for about 2 years in total, but yet my account is alot older. There are others who have been active since the day of their account was made. This is what i meant by bringing in other factors, as getting special features for being dedicated to Habboxforum should be a really hard thing to achieve but still kinda be achievable. It needs to be really exclusive, or there is not point in it.Quote:

I don't think we should let avatars and signatures get any bigger because it's going to get to the point where they are so big that they are just in your face and annoying. I'm sure we can find some more rewarding things than that too!Quote:
