Anyone gonna miss the newsletter?

Huge waste of time, and to be honest, I never knew there was one still :/ Fansite Newsletters always flop, especially when there is absolutely nothing to talk about. The Announcements forum serves this purpose, and information comes flying out immediately. A weekly newsletter is too late, and will contain too little.

no because it was crap and boring

Non-existant anymore

Anyway I won't be missing it. After reading the first one it was just huge and frankly, couldn't be arsed reading it all (and that was the feedback given I see previously, and it did improve by second 'issue').

Secondly, I didn't see the point in the newsletters, because on this forum there's all those announcement forums stating all these changes.

Oh and as said, it probably is better to discontinue it to focus more on other things to do with Habbox.

It's not that a newsletter was a bad idea, it's just (without trying to be rude) whoever did it didn't do it very well.

If it was designed as a modern web page rather than a 90s-esque giant scrollbar on a white page then it could easily have become popular. If it was like a comic book layout (panels) and fitted snugly onto an average screen (without much scrolling), and the text was small but varied in font and colour with good use of images etc, it would have been much more appealing.

Yeah but to be frank there just isn't enough going on. I remember 8freak8 posted one which was personal and gave people updates what was going to happen in the next quarter of the year. So there were only going to be four a year (although I think he only ever did two). They were good. So if Sam or whoever the perm. GM is going to be wants to do 4 or so a year then yeah they'd be read by more. Either way I don't really care.

[leah]

not really, don't think anyone really cared about it.

I think it was a nice try and a good effort on inrequents part, but I guess we've just had to learn through trying that it hasnt been the best idea in the world.
