News - Let your thoughts be heard!

No I don't but it's like rare values. I don't use it but it's a nice feature. I hope this thread doesn't make management believe news should close too.

Oh look, the typical 'I don't read news therefore it should be shut down' responses. You're meant to be saying what we could do to improve it. If you're absolutely not interested then there's really no need to post in this thread, really!

I have a few ideas but no time/patience to actually properly set them out yet.

Oh and it's hardly our fault if a HABBO fansite with some habbo ADDICTS post HABBO news after said ADDICTS have posted it on the forum.

whats with the attitude?
and i cant see one person saying it should be shut down

[orientalframe?]

habbox news generally doesn't appeal to me, it never has and that's probably because before it's even published you've found out on the forum anyway

Rare Values is staying.

I reckon v7 will fix that @xxMATTGxx;

Correct, writing articles should also be a breeze to the News Staff already. Well that's if they have any problems with the current system.

@Samanfa; yeah prizes would be good!!

I wish people would stop saying it's posted on the forum first, how would you know if you don't read it? There's a fair few that aren't posted on the forum first and if they were I wouldn't have got an extremely positive feedback PM about the current news on the site. Seriously, like Laura said please give us construcitve critisism.

I left the news department because I don't play Habbo and you made me post about habbo and not just RL... News would be more popular if you made it appeal to those who don't play habbo just a bit...

Good stuff so, I thought it was getting removed after that feedback thread.

some more competitions would be nice on it, rate the article maybe? im not sure if you already have that.
it would be nice to have more real life articles ( yes i know its a habbo fansite but still)
um also, do you have Room of the week?
like when someone goes out and rates a room out of 10 and stuff,

idk just a few ideas. some of them may be in-place im not too sure!

As a few others have said, it isn't as popular as it could be because people post stuff on the forum first (lala ) before it goes onto the Habbox.com site. I see nothing wrong with this, if a user finds something interesting and wants to post it as soon as possible - let it be. I'd encourage every news staff member to try and post stuff on the forum/site the instant they discover it. After all, forcing people to not post rumours on the forum is hardly fair is it?

I'm glad there will be a better reply system with V7^ I was going to bring that up but clearly don't need to :L. News is properly one of the most important features of the site/forum now. Considering so many people are pissed off with Sulake posting pieces of news all over the place, it's nice to see that it could be in 1 thread or 1 article. I also quite enjoying reading other news articles if I have to go to Habbox.com for some reason .

And yes @Samanfa; the news articles concerning competitions would be a great addition Enjoyed the Eurovision one.
