Announcements

[FlyingJesus]

Any way you want it that's the way you need it any way you want it

Well some people are saying name changes are unimportant others are saying resignations are unimportant and others don't want events, etc.

If we had two seperate forums, one would be for "Important Announcements - Events Starting, Staff Hirings and Firings, SMod/Management Name Changes, and other random important stuff"

The other would be for Event Summaries, New Competitions, Staff Name Changes and...what else?

I'd class "Events Starting" in the second forum heh

I think if the forums were split, events starting and new competitions would have to be in the same forum in my opinion. However as different people class different things as important I really don't believe it is necessary. The occasional bump or stickying of the really important announcements should be enough and anyone who wants to read the events should really be able to open up the announcements forum and look over it. In any forum things will cover up other things so you have to enter the forum to check the most important threads - I don't really see any issue with the current system.

I was thinking more along the lines of:

"Important Announcements - SMod/Management Name Changes, and other random important stuff"

"Not So Important - Event Summaries, New Competitions, Staff Name Changes, Events Starting, Staff Hirings and Firings."

i think splitting them is a good idea, there's loads of times where ive gone to read an announcement, but im too late because its been pished back amongst all the other useless ones.
it should be split up like:
'Habbox forum announcements'
and
'General Habbox announcements'

where all the stuff about the forum, like staff name changes, new features, new rules etc go into 'habbox forum announcements'
and all the other stuff that no one really cares about, like new competitions, telling us events where a success and the like can go into 'general habbox announcements'

This is the best version of a split I think, because then people who don't care about competitions or Habbo or the radio or whatever don't have to see that stuff and can just get the forum news.

two things we agree on in two days.
what is the world coming to?

I don't really see a point in splitting the announcements up as it will require more work for us to see exactly what is happening.

The announcements help give a community feel to the forum telling us everything that is happening even if it may not be 'important' in your words but i'm sure some people like finding out what happened in the events , who won and such.

Pleased to see admin reading the importance of this thread, two separate forums is needed in my opinion. Of course all announcements are important, but some are far more important than an event that's already taken place on Habbo Imagine you've been away for a week, members want to be able to find any important changes that have occured while they have been away, and this will make it far easier to find important Habbox News/Announcements whatever you want to call it, that members want to be kept up to date on, particulary things like new rules, changes to the forum etc. etc.

I think that's a great split

I really don't see how this will cause moderators more work. Members cant post in announcement threads, so are you saying that by having another forum which is only viewable, that causes mods more work?

The announcements should give a community feel to the forum, and I can't see why another announcement forum would make it anything less. If anything I think splitting the announcements will benefit everyone, those members who do attend events on the Hotel and members who enjoy entering competitions on the forum, will benefit too, the thread created to announce these events will stay forefront, surely that's a good thing, isn't it?

To me everyone would benefit
