Just got the email. Finally BBM's gonna start earning through stickers!
Loading it up now, will post as soon as I install it and buy some stickers as well!

This one fixes the annoying default to sticker selection panel when you tap on the emoticon icon while composing a message.

Can somebody explain that sticker crap to me. I'm not in the Beta Zone and just don't get the idea behind those stickers.

for Blackberry to make money off of BBM. I'm not saying i like the sticker feature because i really don't :P

But i've grown to realize that stickers is easy money for an IM client.

Why are Messaging Apps Selling Stickers?
Asian Messenger Line Made $58 Million in Q1 2013

They are just turning BBM into a cash cow with advertisements and stickers

Have you used Facebook or Line Messenger or Viber?
If so, you must have noticed those big graphical smileys, those are called stickers.

I don't think BBM is closed beta. BBM isn't listed as available or eligible under programs?

nope it's closed just like BBM 2.0. Most of us, even the very active ones aren't getting the beta..

Yes obviously it is closed, it is a Beta, can't be open for general release.
If you would have participated in the list maybe you'd get in as well, like a year ago

Yes and it's so irritating, I wonder as to how they select their "private beta testers" since some hardly participate in discussions and surveys yet they get all the new apps!

They need a good mix of skill levels to truly test any potential sticking points for the general user base. If they only allowed those more "active enthusiasts" that like to click everywhere and explore, they could miss some usability issues that someone who doesn't poke around would encounter (like... never having noticed that there is an "HQ" request button). Granted it's already biased since people voluntarily join beta zone... but after that then it's probably mostly random.

Well there is a difference though between a Beta and a Private Beta, cos not every Beta tester is invited for Private Beta participation

I've got the new beta installed, not a fan of the stickers, I won't be buying any.

I just signed up to the beta in beta zone, not sure but I think z30 users got priority for the beta.

Not sure if you are trying to fight me on this but I've been a member on beta zone since 2009/2010. I've been active with everything they have done with being active on their forums as well.

I think it's more of a randomized closed beta in beta zone. But thanks for the snarky comment after I answered someone's question

Whatever you want to call it, if you're not invited, you cant get it.

So closed, private, members only, exclusive, random, magic, whatever.
