    Honest goodness opinion, what do these weekly arrows bring anymore? It feels like it;s the same thing over and over again: staff changes and two or three bugs fixed... XP codes aren't coming out as often anymore and the rest is copy pasted everytime...

    It is a way for people to see what has happened in the past week. As you said yourself, it shows team updates, bug fixes and occasionally provides XP codes. I don't really see why you have to make a point about it.

    I don't see why a whole post is made to copy paste it most of the time, and only add minor changes

    People wanted a weekly changelog.

    This is that.

    Ofc, I understand that, at the beggining it was great, I used to look forward, but now there's barely new things that I see that deserve attention. I'd suggest to try and give more in-depth on the updates and the works behind, or try and put more re-newable material then the same stuff over and over again.

    I'd rather have a weekly post of literally nothing than no communication at all. Take a look at Highlife or Lazertester's twitters: they haven't said or posted anything shotbow related in a whole year.

    Most official communication has moved to the main @ShotbowNetwork twitter account. I actually barely talk about anything related to Shotbow on my twitter - and i'm a much more active twitter user =p
