   Very good.! Something in a similar format may be useful for new users to teach them to use the tracker.

   One thing I learned about was the free draws at Jackpot Joy. I’ve always avoid JJ in case I got in to spending money

   Very good I thought. I have a friend who is 68 and I was thinking this would be very useful to her because she wants to join, but finds it a bit confusing to use the site as she is a beginner. Distance doesnt permit me to show her very clearly. This would help her a lot and a great way to get people such as her and others involved.

   Thanks for the comments

   Using video to explain the tracker and other features on Loquax is definitely something we would like to do.

   I really liked the video, it even got my daughter to shut up for 5 minutes.

   Its a good idea, and I’d watch another one.

    Straightforward and simple-a nice approach to an old favourite…very useful for newbies I would guess.

    gets the thumbs up from me. made a change as sometimes you tend to just skim over the newletter and miss stuff.

    well done, i would definately watch another.

    Looks good to me. What were those photos that kept popping up on the bottom of the film?

    The photos are just YouTube stuff

    Really enjoyed that! The forum is all I use on Loquax (don’t shout at me!) so it would be great to have your guidance looking around!

22. 
    silverbird said on November 8th, 2007 at 9:09 pm

    I’ve got to say I really enjoyed it. It was great to get some guidance on parts of Loquax I haven’t ventured into. I liked listening to your voice too, Jason – very calm and soothing!

23. 
    DarthPenguin said on November 8th, 2007 at 11:00 pm

    Great idea – shame it took so long to download and that’s on 10meg broadband so heaven knows how people without such a fast connection actually managed to watch it – left it downloading – came back and it was back at the start again and it wasn’t “downloaded” at all – tried direct on YouTube but no luck….. 3rd time it crashed my browser so I’ve given up.

    You Tube is getting terrible lately for download speeds, how big is the file?

    Thanks for the video newsletter Jason. I thought it was great and will be a very useful tool for newbies and loquax regulars. Keep up the good work.

    you should be able to watch ok as is – been no problem viewing

    bikerjoe said on November 9th, 2007 at 3:14 pm

    Really enjoyed it Jason. After spending hours researching answers, checking T&Cs its really nice to be able to just sit back and watch, as i too only skim over a lot of the newsletter, i assume because i spend a lot of time on the forums, the newsletter wont have much new to tell me, just goes to show i was wrong!

28. 
    taryn70 said on November 9th, 2007 at 4:07 pm

    Thanks Jason
    This video newsletter is a great idea. I agree with the other posters it would be very good for new users and technophobes, it is an ideal way for them to learn the basics, and to guide them around your site.
    Well done, lets see this as a regular feature.

    sandra63 said on November 10th, 2007 at 11:54 pm

    I enjoyed watching that – didn’t know you could enter jackpotjoy comps without forking out first so will definitely go and have a look there now. Looking forward to the Loquax comp. Thanks for yet another great idea.

32. 
    sherieann said on November 11th, 2007 at 7:06 pm

    Very good idea, well done. I think it is very helpful, I wish I had this type of news-letter when I first started comping with Loquax.

33. 
    teddybear2 said on November 13th, 2007 at 12:04 pm

    I enjoyed it too – very informative!

    Brill idea, works well

    Polarbear said on November 16th, 2007 at 1:36 pm

    Very good, i hadn’t even realised it existed till i read the newsletter but yes i quite enjoyed it- what a great idea- and you “sound different” to what i imagined lol- ok i’m not sure what i thought you would sound like, lol- but that was done very well and you could get a job as a tv presenter /voice over/newsreader with such a smooth clear voice.

    To be honest i never spotted the link to the vide news letter because its tied up on the front page in the “link” to a holiday to St. Lucia and as i don’t really enter holiday comps, i just ’skim read’ the Holiday & St. Lucia part so i think it might be more noticable if the news letter link was seperated from the St. Lucia (or any future) other links if you see what i mean? (and i only spotted it now as i was double checking to see if it was shown on the loquax front page before i made a suggestion that it was and then i saw it already is. IYSWIM)

    Great… I love to see a video for the tracker too, that would be really handy Thanks!

    ifif68 said on November 17th, 2007 at 1:26 am

    It would be nice to know – before clicking – how much time (and megabytes) we are about to devote…

    Very informative, though.

40. 
    jason said on November 17th, 2007 at 10:55 pm

    “It would be nice to know – before clicking – how much time (and megabytes) we are about to devote”

    Are you not just able to click “play” and watch the video streamed straight in or are you having to download the whole thing?

41. 
    djbrammer said on November 23rd, 2007 at 5:53 pm

    Jason, I just clicked on the play arrow and watched it fine without downloading it. I think it is a great idea and really enjoyed it. As others have mentioned one on how to use the tracker system would be great.

    PCnurse said on December 14th, 2009 at 1:05 am

    I second what polarbear said about your voice Jason. You sound like a pro and a lot younger than I expected you to sound lol.

    Great idea especially for lazy people like myself who don’t like reading too much. It is a great way to sit back and listen to the latest goings on and be in the know this way is excellent for pointing out the latest and greatest that’s going on in the Loquax world of comping.

    Would this be replacing the way newsletters are sent out? Do you intend in keeping the text format newsletter? or is this still to be decided?

    Maybe there could be some kind of member rule which only members who has over 100 posts (example only) can get this kind of newsletter. This would be ideal for keeping the other forums copying links e.t.c all top tips and new comps can stay exclusive to loquax. Maybe if not that then some kind of exclusive member newsletter for Loquax regulars only. Means more Loquax winners . Just an idea!

    Great way using videos on all the Loquax ‘need to know’ info. This is just an example. There could be different ones like ‘Getting the best from Loquax’ with all the extra’s included like discounts, codes ‘Tracker info’ u2u comps. A basic one on making posts would be a popular one for newbies and an explanation of what the extra buttons are for.

    100% thumbs up for me.
