V6 User Idea [2]

[AgnesIO]

Another idea for V6..

Perhaps allow the competitions department to run competitions on the main website as well? I know most people who use Habbox.com are Habbo players, many of which do not wish to sign up to the forum.

A simple 'Competitions' page - which is only viewable to Registered members, could have competitions posted in it. To enter it would be a bit like a survey format of a question, with a box and a submit button - essentially it would be the same thing you have on here, just would be another feature for Registered users - you could even have it so the same competitions are posted on there, as are posted on the forum if you wanted to?

We have a competitions widget that tells people which competitions are open on the main site. Not sure if it's default like the events widget is.

I think competitions should remain on the forum tbh.

Fair enough, was just wondering if it might help keep people coming back as registered users.

Obviously if you don't think it would help, then that is also fine

I really like this idea!

[Jsoh]

i think they should be on the website deffo , will probably be more popular and will attract people to sign up on the site too. whenever it's out of beta stages obv

Totally agree, something I've always thought was a good idea. Having competitions on the site will attract people onto the site and keep a lot of them coming back!

Hmm, the thing with that is that upon choosing a winner you'll have to have both up and it'll be really, really confusing. Although it'd be nice to have features on the site, like Mike I think it'd be more worthwhile to enter competitions. If they see "competitions" on the default design, they'll think "ooh" and sign up if they see ten comps like at the moment. After all, I don't get why people would sign up to the site if it's no more advantageous than a forum?

The problem is at the moment, there is no reason whatsoever to sign up to the website - so just thinking of ways to get people - I am sure there are ideas in the pipeline, but you know

I think he means competitions solely for people registered on the site - which is a good idea. I like it

Yeah you're right there's not much there at the moment but there are some good ideas coming up that will plug that gap imo.
