Hey Habbox Community!
An exciting feature that Articles is introducing today to bring a better community based connection between Articles and the forum.
In my feedback thread (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=817807) back in December. I had asked what you all wanted to see done in terms of the Articles department, and one feedback made me really think.
Still up to raising awareness I think. I rarely see articles posted on the forum anymore and I really think this should be mandatory. I do not visit habbox.com EVER. If I want to listen to HxL I use habboxlive.com because hx.com is so laggy for me (also the whole layout is disgusting whilst hxl.com is pretty) so I won't read articles unless they're on the forum. Please continue to encourage all writers to post on the forum x And if they won't maybe post them yourself but say Written by: Bikini or whatever brad?
I'll say it again and again: forum presence. Encourage all writers to have signatures related to the department, come up with activities that really get the community involved rather than just reading and then clicking away again (the Advent Calendar was an extremely good idea for this reason IMO) and don't be afraid to get rid of any dead weight. I'd rather see a small amount of good quality articles than a larger amount of mediocre (née boring) articles.
I don't read articles on habbox for current affairs that I can read about elsewhere. I like the personalised articles that have been posted on the forum, particularly by ripieoono or w.e, because they actually encourage thinking and promote discussion. More engaging articles that we can't read just anywhere pls
With these feedback replies I quickly thought of ideas (with the help of my Senior, Krazybethw) on how we could be more present on the forum. Thus the creation of;
http://Habbox.com/text/44/conversation+starters
This is still sort-of new to the team, but expect to see conversations being brought up by my team within all parts of the forum!
I'd like to thank everyone who had commented in the Feedback thread, and I encourage everyone to keep doing so as it will only allow Articles to become a much better department!
Thanks again,
Bikini
