I really enjoy this new idea that Laura has posted about! Reading these posts on day to day activities gives me more of an idea of what Habbox staff go through to keep the forum running like a fine tuned machine. It also answers all future questions that I would have before applying for a position within the forum/main web site.
Have you read any of these? If so comments on the idea?
I also agree that this is a really good idea ( ignore the bias considering i'm also working very hard on it with laura!)
Was finding it super interesting for example reading the moderation one I wrote, and it really answers questions I had about forum mods :)
Would be nice for management and general management to do a unique one at the end! :) Good idea I think.
I totally agree with you!Quote:

I think it would probably work better if the people writing the articles weren't just news staff who happen to have jobs in other departments, but the concept is nice
That's very nice thing to say, Habbox staff work really hard making this site the best it can be and it's good to have their achievements recognised in this way :)
Since joining the forum and becoming active once again I have realized the amount of effort and dedication these people give to the forum. Everyone adds a special touch to something they do. This is why I think it's a great idea to show a high level of appreciation to anyone who is a staff member.Quote:

Only 2 of them have been News staff so far, and I asked every manager to get volunteers. Everyone who is doing it was the only person to volunteer in their department, so it's not like I've specifically asked the News Staff. It's kind of common sense that the people who are accustomed to writing articles would be the first ones to volunteer though!Quote:

I don't read news that often but I'm finding these really interesting and enjoying reading them :)
They are quite interesting and give you an insight on the lifes of other Habbox Roles.

"original" means first. I fail to see how me correcting YOUR error means that I made the original error? I would not be able to edit anything if I supposedly made the first error.Quote:

I didn't see the originally bit, sit down.Quote:

A good/decent SPAG is needed, a perfect standard of it is not. You know full well I don't type like that on the wiki and I certainly don't speak "like dis ye bruv" in reality. If you see SPAG errors on pages I edit, go ahead and correct them... I have to endure you complain about it constantly to me. It's usually only minor stuff which is still understandable. I never said you consider yourself perfect, just that you follow "perfectionism".Quote:

No I wouldn't say you were on your high horse as I always think I'd use it in the wrong situation lmao. I'm not trying to argue because to an extent I agree with you. I don't always go on about SPAG on the Wiki to you and mostly when I do I joke about it (and I have edited it before). I'm mainly on about other things anyway.Quote:

OT: I'd like to see a General Manager, AGM etc one like someone suggested :).
These are really interesting, fantastic idea!
My only complaint is that this one is a different font size to the others:
https://habbox.com/#!/News/article/1498
Yeah I think sometimes that occurs if we've copied it from somewhere else (although it does change randomly sometimes too). The negative side of it is that the default size isn't even on the editor (which is 11.5) thus when that occurs I have no choice other than put it at size 11. I'll sort that out soon - we usually check when they've been published to ensure they look ok though.Quote:
