We have to try and accommodate for both new, young members and those older ones who have been here a while, that's why we do also have competitions which are admittedly sometimes cringingly basic and silly.

    Genuinely interested to know what you think as any feedback can be used to better the department.
    honestly I'm not the greatest person to ask for feedback on comps as it's never really been something that has interested me unless other elements (namely drawing or a chance to have a pop at habbox) have been involved. I didn't mean any offense, I think it's a great department and it caters to who it needs to in different ways, just that the alliteration and general theme of competitions aren't my bag.

    No I haven't taken offence don't worry hahaha, I just enjoy feedback because obviously it gives me something to aim towards. You would have really enjoyed my University of Habbox competition, asked you to create a course all about habbox, I know a few people used it as an opportunity to rinse a few people and departments. I enjoy controversy. You might enjoy the current Habbox Awards competition too which is out at the moment.

    Also if you love being able to have a "pop at habbox" or its users, you're REALLY GOING TO ENJOY an event I have planned for the next month or so.

    Thanks for the suggestions

    To be honest, I think Articles, Graphics and Content should all fall under 'Content'.

    One of the things with merging departments I find is that how would the poor management run it? It'd practically double the work load.

    Not if you merge events into comps since no-one hosts events anyway and comps staff always seem to be at the few that are put on

    Indeed, and I think people always forget this. The only reason it works in other fansites is because they're "forum events" department is far, far smaller than our Competitions Department.

    Oh yes, guides would be a great idea. I've had a few people come up to me in the past asking how to do xyz, but it's hard for me to say since I basically learned by trial and error over the course of what, 9 years now? I know that the staff aren't experts, but creating basic guides (enlarging, recolouring, putting your Habbo in an official image, basic shading and texturing) would be a good way to get people to be interested. Perhaps even try and get @oftenMiceElf; to assist since he clearly has an interest in assisting and has . Or perhaps even other people who post graphics, like @MakeBelieve..; @GregSegesi; etc.
