Recent Downfall

Richie, sorry to crash your post but you asked me in HxHD to try and get Jen back so I don't see why your here saying to everyone get over it when you haven't exactly yourself. I'm not going to get over Jen leaving in the near future because she was a honourable member.

Jen may have been an honourable member, sure she made some good posts but before she left she didn't post as much as what she used to. I don't think it's really fair to say that there isn't as much posts as there used to be because one person left that's just silly lol. Like Catz said maybe if the new members who posted in spam didn't get treated differently or sort of "pushed out" of spam then it would still be as active. Another good point she made was exam time so of course the forum posts will start to go down a bit then due to people starting revision!

Very good point, I used to use Habbox for just that , but there must be some good kids out there who will actually do their work right?

I think it would help if a our "lower" management team and DJ's posted more than once a week

Looking at the posting pattern of the last 4 years it goes like this:

January: Busy
February: Gets quieter
March: Usually quietest month of the year until the Easter Holidays (note: these are a lot later this year!!)
April: Usually picks up around Easter holidays (see above)
May: Posting usually stays consistent with April kinda time
June: Posting drops a little due to more nice weather & revision
July: Busiest month of the year.
August: Second busiest month of the year
September: Posting drops as people get back into routines and arent on HxF until 2am.
October: Posting increases a little bit
November: Consistent with October
December: Quieter.

The same pattern has been followed for the past 4 years and I think the same pattern will occur this year, however, HabboxForum was down for 1 week in March, if you take the average posts per week in March and add it to the monthly total, March 2011 was better than 2010.

As much as I like Jen, get over it. Speak to her on msn, I try speak to her now and then when I notice she's on msn but I don't continuously moan about her leaving on the forum, it's not like we can force her come back.

I don't post in spam any more because I just don't "click" with the spam community like I used to. When I do post in spam some people generally just cry about everything, even if I make a jokey comment there is always that one negative **** head that turns the thread. Fair enough people have their own opinions but it's the same negative people over and over again, if people keep crying they should be ******* banned, simple as. I just tend to steer clear of spam nowadays, it's not the same as before and I think I've just gotten to the stage where I just ignore people who are up their own arses.

Don't worry though the forum isn't going to die the stats will always be on an up and down scale and lets be honest the point of this thread is just to moan. Management should really make rules for feedback. If people don't have a suggestion on how to fix a problem it shouldn't be feedback, it should be a complaint. After all feedback is ones opinion on how things can be improved.

I know that might look contradicting but in fairness I'm just using a mirror to reflect the rainbow so people can see the gold beyond it .

It's spam, what do you expect? :| From what I remember spam was never some accepting loving bff community anytime between now and your join date. There's always been negativity in there. Plus your jokes do suck balls and you know it.

Agree with most of this but I do think the large amount of 'downtime' we have had recently has also impacted on the numbers of posts as if it isn't up members can't physically post. We are entering the phase of exams for everybody too so quite a few members won't have quite so much time until the summer holidays but that's quite normal. Also members come and go all the time and if it is specifically spam you are taling about then maybe more of an effort to welcome new members there would be a good idea?

I think we've been good tbh. Haven't been complaining when new members post there but I think they're all scared of me which is why there hasn't been a massive increase of newish users posting there.

I don't think they are scared of you, Stephen.

Then what are they scared of?

Then what are they scared of?

It can be quite intimidating in spam when users first post.

To be fair it is a bit silly to be asked to be accepted as a spam member with your first post, I know that from personal experience - anyone serious should make regular posts.
