I would rather the news reflected the news reporters thoughts in a mild tone than a news reporter appear as an un-opinionated robot... It's a good article, hopefully more like this would follow![]()

Opinions are good. As long as it isn't I THINK THIS, YOU ARE WRONG. BITE ME. it's good.

Just seeing any news is good in my opinion because we did have a time when we were going weeks at a time with nothing at all.
I am not a fan of publicly criticising an individual but some people like to give it so deserve to get a bit of stick back. :eusa_whis
In my opinion, I was a News Reporter at Habbox before and I still criticise some of the News Reporters today. When news like this is posted, and it's repeatedly being done then there is obviously a bit of negligence going on here. To me, it seems like e5 has the potential to be a good News Reporter, but his spelling & ways of how he's presenting are awful. When I was a News Reporter, I knew that there were guides on this in the News Forum, and I don't think he's read them. I also used to get feedback on my reports, and I think that still occurs but with e5, he needs more than just feedback. He needs a tutor on reporting properly.
All the content is there, and it's all fine and dandy. It's just the way he's doing so, is really bad. I also noticed that he's had the "Start using emphasis" PM, by how many things have been bolded in his reports. How he could've gone in reporting, is writing about the Bench, and giving it a description along with the price. Same with the other 2 items. Then he could've went onto finding the images, but he screenshotted them. Personally I think screenshotting furniture is a bit horrid, but whatever gets the job done.
The personal note he's put, I can call him many names for but I wont. No one likes your personal opinion of things, they just want (FU ASHLEY!) straight news. A sentence like "This unique looking furni would be a great addition to all guest rooms!" is appropriate, and gets the same message across. As for the spelling, that is why I used to reccomend to trialists to use Microsoft Word, or a spellchecker which could be downloaded for Firefox (if you use it). As for the nouns, they'd come up as fragament (or w.e) errors.
There's a bit of constructive criticism for ya!
PS. I love hurting your guys eyes with this fontsize. Makes you actually read the post thoroughly...

I agree with the bold when I was assistant HxHD manager I used microsoft word while doing reports as I'm terrible at spelling and grammar so yeah I'd reccormend using that as wellIn my opinion, I was a News Reporter at Habbox before and I still criticise some of the News Reporters today.

I’ll be a story in your head, but that’s okay, because we’re all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know. It was the best. A daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I always meant to take it back. Oh, that box, Amy, you’ll dream about that box. It’ll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand-new and ancient and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would had…Never had. In your dreams, they’ll still be there. The Doctor and Amy Pond and the days that never came.
Exactly. I'm fine on speelin and grammer so it's not much of a problum for me. Give e5 a break... I do find his reports attrocious, and I have ******* about them like you lot have, but there's a better way to go about it.
