The Hive Newspaper

[Nightblade]

There were plans for one,an issue came out,but then it stopped.Anyone knows the reason for this?

 

[-Peper-]

Because the people who didn't interested at it said it sucks.

 

[Tleno]

Yes, TWIF got to sad and dissapoint when some people were completely unconstructive and kinda even offensive, I mean that was a first try, and a pretty good one for a first time, but some people just yelled it's not good enough even for a first try.

Oh, also some newer people such as Skycraft just didn't like the Funny Pages comic because they didn't knew who is Mecheon.

So I don't think you'll see it anytime soon unless TWIF will get hit by a newspaper and inpiration and motivation to make a newspaper will get into his head.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Or someone else have motivation. I still love Rui's "newspaper". It was awesome.

TWIF newspaper was okay, it just needed some improvements. It was fine for a first try.

 

[Tleno]

Rui's newspaper? You mean the Hiveworkshop Newseller? Oh yes, it was awesome. I wonder why they don't make it anymore.

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Yea that was something I enjoyed reading.

A few moderators and some users wanted it closed down to avoid sparking flamewars.

Although yes, the non-supporters were offensive, they still provided sound criticism, whilst most of the supporters gave unconstructive 'good job man' comments.

 

[Tleno]

True.
Well yea... I mean, the rant part and whatever weren't that useful or whatever, it kinda made the newspaper look like yellow press... I think that if TWIF or whatever else is going to make a new newspaper, it should be more like that old Twif's newspaper.

or maybe because the funny pages were not funny pages
don't make excuses then believe them yourself

 

[Tleno]

Yea, they weren't that funny, true. But quite a lot of people fun them, you know, funny enough for a first try... I mean, we didn't had enough of ideas back then... since it was a first try we didn't knew what would be more funny for people.

What is the Hive Newspaper?
I'm too young and dreadful to understand the old ways of this site ):

 

[Tleno]

Search in the Site News section. You should find few Hiveworkshop Newseller or whatever issues.

Honestly more often negative criticism is more constructive then positive criticism

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Yeap. However negative criticism won't work always as some people just can't take it.

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

People who can't take it are normally the people you never see improve (/me points to DA)

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Yup, yup. Agreed.

Isn't like the best criticim like the one that stay neutral but points up all the pros and cons? Pardon for going off-topic...

Lol yeah, but it's not as fun as insulting and putting down those who are trying to put in a decent effort.

Matter of sizing up your recipient. Where as some guys would favor a pat on the back, some can't take criticism unless it's a kick to the rear end.
