my fabulous idea

HIII

basicallyyyy i think to attract more people to hx/hxf you need to do something that no other fansite has... hard, yeah, i know. BUT i think you should make a 'teen corner' on habbox.com which is essentially where forum users come from. in said corner you could have numerous guides and advice articles. for example:

+ are you getting bullied?
+ so, you think you're homosexual?
+ why exam results aren't everything...

there are tens and tens of articles that you can post which will be relevant to sooo many of the people who use the site. i know (TEMPORARILY FORGOT HIS NAME) scottish guy who loved xtina used to do some teen help thingies and they were actually really good. i know i loved reading them.

obviously you can link them to the forum if they want to discuss anything as well as link them to helplines of professionals and all that. it would have to be done dead proper but could be good imo!!

Ostinato used to do something like this. Although I've no idea how much of an audience it would attract these days.

Don't see the problem in it. Worth a shot.

there are already forums/sub-forums for those topics unless i'm misunderstanding


anyway do you have your own fansite anyway jake? why don't you apply these ideas to yours

yeah that's his name. i mean on a much bigger scale though. he did one a week or maybe even fortnightly. dedicating a whole space for this to be updated regularly with tons of articles on problems teens can face. will be hard work for like two weeks writing them all but after that they're there forever and could potentially interest a lot of people and attract them to the forum to discuss them. this is something that genuinely interest me and although i know i can't be staff (lol) i would happily write some and send them to matt or whoever to use! obviously if they're good enough... which they would be cuz i can basically write like a genius when i wna ;l

jarvis - have them on habbox.com - not hxf
no i dont have a fansite

I like this actually, it could work, could even be something to say "Need advice with your own problem, you can post it on HabboxForum and get advice from our members" or something

yeah, could easily advertise the forum into it... "want to discuss this somewhere where you can stay anonymous..." etc

I actually think your idea of just having members' interest could work. Although I'm not suggesting the News Reporters to write this (because ofc we're meant to report, it's not articles all over again), I think Martin would be a good person to sort of manage the section. He's management for the writing side of content and I'm sure he has a few extra hours. Then members' could PM their article and they'd get full credit (or even a reward) along with their article produced. If everyone is doing it then I think it could work as it would be from different people's perspective.

Could work but deffo let people be anonymous lol

It would certainly help to open the Habbox door to people other than just Habbo players
