Because important announcements get hidden by unimportant ones.

I mean i doubt most people on this forum could give two poops if the Hx event had a good turnout, or if theres a special show on etc.

Where most of us need to see the proper ones (forum downtime, updates, etc)

For the reason of utter crap being posted on announcements i rarely view them as its a waste of time as the majority of it is 5 new people hired and 3 events had a great turnout with 2 stickied threads.

I view habboxforum.com as just the community of habbox.com, not as a separate site.I agree that the success of the events isnt something that should go in announcements (lets face it we probably will never see "fallin furni a great flop!")

But events should be on the announcements I believe they are actually what causes them to be noticed more. Considering its also a Habbox event why should it not receive more publicity than other habbo events on our forums.

I think you are missing the whole point of this topic jin, and as management you probably know more or less what important changes will be announced, so you need to view this from a members point of view and not from the position you hold at Habbox.

I totally agree with you that all announcements should be posted in Announcements and no one is saying they shouldn't.

What we are trying to highlight here, is that there are threads which I and other members consider to be of greater importance, threads that include changes to habbox.com and that does include the site, forum and radio, because these threads do have a tendency to get buried and you only need to be away a couple of days, probably less before that important thread gets buried even further amongst every other announcement made. Splitting announcements would give all round benefits, providing there were two types of Announcements. One for announcements that should be read, and the other for those that could be read as in my previous post.

Also, no one wants to deny the Articles, Competitions, Events, HxHD, News or Productions Managers, the opportunity of posting what's important to promote habbox. We just want a better way! These departments wouldn't suffer if what's been proposed were to happen.

We aren't demanding anything here, we are simply asking for some way of improving the announcements to be considered, which should benefit everyone.
