Reward System

[AgnesIO]

I've never fully understood why members do not stay. When I look back to when I joined, I remember associating myself with members of staff and being involved with the Help Desk to keep up to date and chat. Perhaps Habbo based staff should be more talkative, and forum staff more personable? How you would do that I don't know, as it's never really been a problem but somehow it has become one :/

As I have said a lot over the last few weeks, the DJ's are probably the worst for not posting on the forum. This is a problem in my eyes, as they are the most popular department. New habbo users would love to join if they had the chance to talk to their favourite DJs.

I'm sorry you thought I was harsh but I'm not going to sugarcoat what I think either. I do think it's unnecessary. I think it'd be much more worthwhile to have more staff posting. I think to get the newer members posting more, they'd need to see their Habbox "role models" - the DJs, the managers (basically the people they interact with the most) - and that would require an attitude change.

This really sounds like a permament posting competition under a different name.

Maybe not, but you don't need to target me over it either. I don't care if you slam my idea down, I do care if you make it personal to me though.

Giving Newbies 2 weeks VIP, could cause some hassle. As they are allowed to close their own threads they could be making a mess opening and closing their own threads and opening threads that have been closed by MODS.

Well if they did then they would get told it is against the rules but it is highly unlikely. Also they would not get it until the end of the month - 100 posts in a month so spamming wouldn't help them.

i just don't see the point in this, you shouldn't have to be bribed to post yaknow. and if people DO need to be bribed to post here then maybe that's not the community habbox needs anyway.

No the new promotion iss not meant for that ( if that is what you are referring to). Some people are just shy of posting - just an encouragement. Like a BOGOF! Try is and see if you like it.

If users don't want in to make people spam, why not just offer it to members for their first month of being members? For every x posts (after making lets say 100 posts) they can get a reward. I don't think that would be ideal, but at least then you couldn't accuse older members of spamming - after all an idea like this is more to get people coming back, rather than making 5 posts and leaving and not to keep people like me with 10k posts.

I think that is the idea!

What do you mean 'I think that is the idea'?
