Default Feedback on the newsletter

OK people, the newsletter was discussed a bit and we got our first newsletter out.

7letters wrote this one and we will make this monthly i think. It is for Freerollforums and Texasholdemforums.

I mainly wanted it for the games and too get some members that forgot about THF and FRF for some time. When i look at the members who visited it looks like some old approved members and it also looks like kikolo and starlightcoast saw the newsletter and checked back in.

Any suggestions about what should be included?

league champions and some major accomplishments by members?


I just wanted to bring it up i really liked what 7letters wrote and i think it's a good idea to make in say monthly and when we have bigger games...

Well I guess my Spam Eater ate my copy cause I never saw it. Could you send another copy or better yet is there a link to it here on the site? would be nice to have a link somewhere.

we've been discussing this for a while in the staff room. we have waited a while because we want to do it right

in my opinion the newsletter should
* include any site news
* updates on upcoming games
* results of prevoius months competitions
* any special offers etc

if we do it right then we could also sell advertising spaces on the newsletter and use the proceeds to fund games

A couple other things that could be noted ( I know this part may be extensive ), for one maybe add in the acknowledgment of birthdays for the month. second thought that jumps out at me would be a little welcome message to new members and listing their names for the month. Another thing that could maybe put in there would be a specific post of the month or poster of the month.

Now I know doing this requires a quite a bit of work for just one or 2 people. What about having a group of specific members set up to put together the specific parts then once everything has been collected then whomever is going to be sending out the newsletter could just copy and paste everyones work into it.

P.S. I would not have a problem in helping with this seeing as though I am for the most part here all day. Just a thought.

I received it and thi is what I got:

Hi everyone,


Just to let you all know about the current games that you are eligible for
and on offer at www.freerollforums.com and www.texasholdemforums.com



The next games are at http://www.pokerrewards.com/referral...ff_id=aff64474

Games: NLHE
Monday 16th April at 5pm EST
- It's free to enter and has a $100 prize pool.
Monday 23rd April at 5pm EST
- another $2 buyin game - $50 added to the prize pool.
Monday 30th April at 5pm EST
-a special free entry $150 prize game for all those who played in the $2 buyins.

We've been having some really good games at PokerRewards so far and with the
site also offering free entry single table SitnGo's and buyins as low as
9c - it's a great site to build yourself a bankroll for free.


_______________________________________________



Throughout May we have another series of games at the popular site
http://http://www.junglepoker.com/index.aspx?ref=32582

Dates :
Friday May 4th - $100 Freeroll
Friday May 11th - $100 Freeroll
Friday May 18th - $100 Freeroll
Friday May 25th - $100 Freeroll
Friday June 1st - $5 buy-in; $50 Added to the prize pool
Time : 7pm est time
Game: NLHE

Beat that! If you don't make your $5 buyin from those juicy freerolls
- well-
ya just arent trying



_______________________________________________



We have some exciting stuff going on at the moment, including a new monthly
buyin 'Title Game' . Not only are there $$$ to be won, you get every post you
make branded with your ' Texas Holdem Forums Champion' banner.

The standard of play has been exceptional at our tourneys and we've had some
really fun games lately.

We currently have our League games running at:
www.texasholdemforums.com/pokerstars/ - Sundays
www.cakepoker.com/?t=344 - Saturdays
and also at http://www.pitbullpoker.com/poker/af...referral=20365 on
Wednesdays

If you havnt played at Pitbull before, they offer all our members a free $10
no-deposit bonus, so your first league game with us is entirely free!

Our last game at Pitbull had an excellent and disturbingly professional live
internet commentary from two of our senior members Mars and Rw.
It was great fun and all being well they will continue this feature. Sound good?

(ps- We heard you coughing though Mars)

It looks different now. In my mail I couldn't click on the links that started with www. only the ones that started with http. The vB code didn't work.

Members birthdays and new members aren't news. In a newsletter should go important stuff like upgaming games. I think the newsletter was good. And as Fonz said the winners from the leagues and what they won should also go in the newsletter.
