Staff Forums

[AgnesIO]

Our department has a staff thread and has done since before 2006 - I really cannot see any problem in regards to them, other than nit-picking. If we are going to regulate and create rules regarding staff spam threads, well that says it all really.



..and i'd put it to you that it was nice to have been given that choice.

It's not nitpicking, and if Habbox was still getting loads of posts I wouldn't have even posted this. Sorry that the RV department has the biggest spam thread - that is hardly my fault.

Do you have any better ideas to TRY to increase posting activity Dan? Oh wait.

To the OTHER dan (-danube-) I will reply to you later, your post was really good and made some good points - so I want to take some time, which I don't have right now to reply

trust me, the staff forums are nothing special and are as dead-er-er-er than the normal forum

Trust me. I know what they are like. Are you suggesting some staff just don't post at all?

the rv spam thread is so big because jake merged a lot of old threads into it also, its not just 40,000 posts of spam.

I know you said you just skim read now, however I did state that But there is still a lot of it.

Then again, it may have changed lately, I am just trying to help forum activity though..

My idea has been and will continue to be that until we have a new main site, the forum and Habbox in general will continue to decline. If you want more posting activity then get more users - in order to get more users you need a site which will keep them coming back.

Imagine somebody who comes on Habbox.com for the first time, they are greeted with a sub-standard site and will have no reason or motivation to re-visit.

The past few months we've seen a number of issues being blamed for Habbox and its troubles, from Habbox Live to the Habbox Help Desk and in reality it all stems back to the site. I know the site is apparently being worked upon now which is good - but I still stand by the fact that it lays at the bottom of most of the problems on Habbox today.

In the comps spam thread, there's only been 9 posts today so far. Myke's right, they're not that active

I think the Habbox Staff forum and the talk about anything staff forum could be merged. Other than that I think even though the department specific forums aren't always crazily active they still do serve their purpose and help the department function as it must.

Way to give me some ideas

Totally agree. The 'new website' does seem to be a lot of the same thing that happened with the rare values panel that took like 2 years to make (or more?) It's all when and good having the ideas, but ideas need to turn in to action.

It's currently being coded now actually. In the past work on the new version of the site has been piss poor because nobody bothered to work on it. That's not the case now though. It's beeing coded now although atmiddidly communication could improve between who's doing the coding and who should be helping and I'm working on that.

The only thing I'm coding right now is the site. I am quite busy with other things now which is why the need for a HxHD Assistant was necessary so that should give me more free time to focus on coding too. It's already functional though, a lot of tasty features just need to be added to it.
