We're now looking into implementing a email newsletter.
This could be a Habbox Gossip like Laura / Mathew used to do, we may incorporate competitions into it also to get people involved, emails will be sent out monthly.
So in other words, we need help in what you'd like in this, so we're giving 20 tokens per valid individual idea into this.
This email will mainly go to people who haven't logged in after 1 year, although we'll give you the choice if you'd like to be in this also :)
Thanks
Ross
Post it on the forum too I want to see it.
Idk if gossip would be any use for people who haven't logged in for years tho..
Prob include latest habbox and habbo news
Information about upcoming events that we have planned throughout the year, e.g. HxSS.
Maybe give them limited offers if this is possible I dont know if it would work, (ie. We noticed you haven't visited us for a while, we would like to offer you 1 weeks VIP as a welcome back) I dunno but something along those line aha! As i say might not even work.
I Like the idea of competitions on there, little crosswords etc. Defo Habbo news to be on there wether its latest furni line or latest competition that habbo have running.
I would like to get this newletter too aha! Sounds fun!
Personally I think straying away from gossip would be a good idea as older members won't really be engaged with all the ins and outs - but a few little bits would work!

for me it might be nice for a little staff update bit
you know how there used to be the piecharts and stufc
just doing any big updates too like blahvlah resigned /is now manager
i alwhays miss the updates :(
upcoming events too would be good
maybe dont just do over a year ago tho people who recently quit might be more likely to come back
a lot of hxl djs who quit like 75% of them will return at a later time @despect; if they received the newsletter they might be like ooh
sorry id this doesnt make sense im tired and sent from my phone
There is still a pie chart of staff changes every month in my Staff of the Month threads, just so you know :)Quote:

I like this idea!! It could include the next large event and an exclusive VIP that only returning members can claim from the email. That would be cool.
Yeh that idea never works, saying log on and PM me for a weeks VIP. Need something to make them interact more in all honesty.Quote:

I def think that if you're putting the effort in to do something like this then it would be worth making the highlights of it publicly viewable on the site or something as well as going out to inactive email addresses :P wouldn't have to be anything huge or in-depth (could look a bit daunting if it was anyway) but sounds like a nice little addition to proceedings. Obv don't add in the whole "we miss you!" message or whatever on the site
This could be cool.Quote:

So we could technically have like a "Monthly" or "Weekly" time hop so whenever the newsletter is sent out it could be something like, "Weekly Time Hop Week of May 30th" 2015-2005 and each year something that happened on or around May 30th would be documented.
It's sort of what @Samanfa; had said, but give it a twist..
No no, it won't be a generic boring thing. The way I'll be doing it / Laura will be doing emails and stuff isQuote:

Habbox.com and a few other sites will have opt in box's if you'd like to be included on the email.
Problem is, we can't just email 70k people with a newsletter every month, the IP would get blacklisted, it'd cause a tonne of problems so we need to do this quite smart.
