Okay right, here is my rant.
First of all, micky.blue.eyes does not deserve Super Moderator placement. For the obvious reasons he is a rubbish moderator, and he is barely online. To back myself up with the rubbish moderator statement, well just look through all the infractions he gives out, i'd say over 50% are reversed.. There are PLENTY of people who deserve that place loads more than him, and three to anme are Nixt, Foxmoth & :Jamie. They are actually decent moderators, and this forum lacks decent moderators. You can ask all the forum, and I'm pretty damn sure the majority will agree with me.
Also, with ---MAD--- getting forum manager, well that's utter stupidity. He doesn't deserve smod, let alone administrator. He doesn't do anything, he is just there, and from what I heard he does one hell of a lot of sucking up. Now now now, look who else you have lost. Ostinato. Sorry but he has been one of the best Administrators Habbox has seen. You don't get very many people like him, he's really kind and everything, he's a really nice guy. That will be one of Habbox's biggest losses yet, and yet to come. The only decent SMods & Admins now are, Catzsy, Wayne. & nvrspk4.
Seriously, sort it out?

Thanks. It's not exactly often I make a thread like this, but it needs to be done really. People thought Habbox was going down hill when Dave & co left? Bah. That'll be nothing compared to this..
---MAD--- all you do is make the same post in every single welcome thread over and over again. Whatever you say, imo the members of a forum are always the best judge on if an Administrator is any good or effective, as it's them who get the effects.
What you say is complete rubbish, both micky and mad deserve there new jobs they contribute alot towards the forums

I sorted the technical side of things which A4Aowen didnt know how to do. I do not need to make a post in public to prove I do anything..just cause i welcome the new guys and dont post any where else does not mean I do nothing in the admincp or in staff forums :).

Thank you for being understanding. I simply copy and paste into a new thread. Only 2 or 3 are made every day, that takes 15 seconds!
Being admin involves much more than posting, most of the work is behind the scenes such as helping out users via pm, helping out mods via pm, making sure everyone is doing their jobs and off course making sure the forum is to top standards from the technical side.
Being an admin does not require you to post at all, I only do it to say hi to the new guys and gals :).

I have also resigned but this is because I rarely visit the Forum anymore.
---MAD--- is a great administrator. Just because he doesn't have you all on MSN and give out free reputation doesn't mean he isn't. He suggests new ideas, implements ideas from Forum Members and works his butt off to make sure the technical side of this Forum works, as well as ensuring that we have new Forums and moderators.
When choosing a Super Moderator we don't just say "Oh I like his name so lets have him" we go thruogh the moderator logs and see who has had consistently good ones over a period of time. Approval is then given by all of the Forum Management before the person even knows we've discussed them. The whole process takes around 3 days so it isn't as if we just hire anyone.
No one sucks up for their positions on HabboxForum, at least not to myself, sierk or 8Freak8. Admittedly people may be friendly with the names mentioned above but this doesn't mean they get the job anymore than anyone else.

I agree with 90 percent of that Ben
Although I can't say Mad does nothing, as he has seemed to do a lot: Skins, Vertical posting, chat's etc
Hecktix needs to go, he's bringing the site down, I have a screenie to show 8Freak8 with him just being rude to me
Nixt also should be supermod
Seacat never did anything recently though,although he did LOADS in the old days (Even though we don't get along)
Ostinato was a legend,and was always helping users in the teen forums etc

the bit about on msn and gives us free rep.. well wth? you don't see wayne & nvrspk giving me rep, and i still like them. so that's utter crap. and the bit about moderator logs must be crap aswell, because most of micky's infractions get reversed, and you can tell that Nixt & Foxmoth do a hell of a lot of work. &the end bit about no one sucking up, that's also a pile of crap, i've even been told by people they only suck up so they can get high position. i'm glad you quit.
oh and btw ---MAD---, the thing about msn is a lie, once i randomly added 8freak8 to msn and he accepted. i talk to him sometimes too.

Okay..
Ostinato = Absolute legend, tbh, when i saw his thread in the staff forums, I was totally..shocked:( Tbh, I reckon he should be Forum Manager..He's such a good asset to Habbox, And he's a top guy, helps the users and is really a great guy to know..He deserves to be recognised for what he's done!
Okay, I have 8Freak8 on IM, I talk to him, But I am far from suck-up..I even have Seacat, Who I talk to aswell..No where near suck-up I can guarantee.
Catzsy, Wayne and Nvr are amazing, Catzsy SHOULD be admin tbh, and I reckon a majority of the forum agree..Nixt for Super Mod, as He's amazing, I doubt that all the spam crew + everyone that knows and is friendly with him will not be biased and say he gets it cos he's a nice guy, he should get it because he does his job, he's a top dude!
I must admit that the forum has gone a wee bit down-hill recently..It just needs lifting up..

I think Micky.Blue.eyes deserves a super moderator job.
I see things you don't, like the work he puts in, the willingness to change the way he is working (something I sure as hell can't do), the amount of work he does.
Reason you don't see him online that much?
Well, do you actually go searching for his name?
I know for a fact, he lives +1 hour from UK time, when we're finishing school, he is likely to be on here and helping out with moderating.
I know for a fact, he's defiantly 1 of the longest moderators we've had, not in this current spell, no; but he has worked as a moderator before.
And he is also very level-headed, which (i'm not saying anyone else isn't, but since he's the topic, i'm referring to him), is quite essential for this role.
and the only reason i'm going to mention M.B.E, is because noone else has really stood up for him. :)

all well and good, but he isn't online no where as near as much as all the others, and doesn't put in as much work or effort as much as the others. this isn't a personal vendetta against him or nothing, but the best person should be picked for the job. and i will stand by that.

I'm going to have to disagree with you about the bit about ---MAD---. He is a nice guy and I'm sure he does alot of work. I don't see why you are so bothered about him posting in the introductions forum, is he not allowed to do that? He chooses to do that in his spare time, I don't really see why it concerns anyone else.
Don't take this the wrong way, all the admins are pretty nice people. Ostinato did deserve the position as much as MAD, but its really not your choice is it. He is a really nice guy, but its not like the management hire people depending fully on their personalitys.
At the end of the day, you can't do anything about it.
I don't know micky.blue.eyes so I won't comment on that.
I WAS LYK THE BEST SUPA MOD
anyway, MAD does alot from what I hear from 8f8.

i wasn't moaning about the welcome thing, i was using it as an example. and i know this won't do anything, but it's a hell of a lot better to express our opinions than being kept quiet. but i still feel that ostinato did deserve the promotion a lot more, he had been assistant forum manager before ---MAD---, and tbh i don't even know why ---MAD--- was made assistant forum manager, when ostinato already was, and he was doing a brilliant job from what everyone else could see. and i know it's not up to me, but i'm one to always say how i feel &what i think.

I can't comment on the Super Mods, the 2 new ones were decided by A4AOwen before he resigned and I don't have much knowledge on who is best. There is still one to come. A4AOwen gave 3 nominations, and we chose 2.
The new forum Super Mods are actually on a 2 week trial.
MAD definately does deserve Forum Manager, I can promise you that. I don't say things unless I truely believe it and I am certain that MAD deserves it.
As for Catszy, Wayne. and nvrspk4 we're aware of them being good and they've not been forgotten.
We're also aware that the moderators seem to have more problems than in the past. Until today A4AOwen and Ostinato have been in charge of moderators so new management might change this. MAD was not allowed before now to deal with moderators, only technical stuff. This may explain why you think he does nothing.

you do know that making A4AOwen forum manager was a massive mistake? he barely knew the forum rules let alone how to handle a forum. also, you never actually stated in the announcement they are on a two week trial. but i still think, well i don't think, i know, that nixt, foxmoth & :jamie deserved that trial a hell of a lot more, but meh. and well tbh, i do think that rosie wayne and nvrnoob does get forgotten, nvrspk has been the longest serving administrator, if i'm not wrong? and he's still classed as the 'little admin', which i see as unfair. also, i don't see the reason why he isn't allowed to handle with vip features and update them, he told me. i see that as a little unfair. but tbh i don't think anyone will change my mind on what i've already posted. they can prove me wrong, by all means. and i will apologise. but i'm too stubborn to change my mind on who deserves what.

I've never forgotten Catzsy, I've suggested her for things in the past it's just never really happened. I have noticed that she takes a proactive role in spotting problems and things which don't make sense.
I don't know if nvrspk4 would find this offensive, but I've never really got the impression, until tonight (because everybody is telling me so), that he wanted to be a forum manager because I can't really recall a time where he's shown much interest in changing rules, creating rules, pointing out moderator issues and so on. However I do know now, because everybody else has told me. As for VIP, I have no idea what that's about - I think he's allowed to change things, I think him and Wayne. just do different jobs regarding VIPs.

yeah not a full admin yet, and he's one of the longest serving admins in all? well except from the obvious; sierk ect.
I say catzy for Admin :)

I made a few mistakes at the start but then I grasped it and then before I knew I lost it over a runescape auction and loads of other petty rubbish LOL.
Habbox needs more decent mods, that could actually then go on to be Super Mod and above, it's ok talking the talk in the application, but whether thats shown in the job is differant.

i think their trial should be looked into in more detail. i also think therre should be people [higher up mods/smods] who actually watch the trialists specially when they are on trial, make sure they don't slip up and to guide them.

Whenever a new skin comes out there is thread after thread after thread of "Lovin' the new skin!" and "What skin do you use?" etc.
---MAD--- is the one who sorts all of the skins out (along with the graphics staff obviously). He's the one that makes the forum look outstanding, not exactly the same and default as every other forum, so maybe you should take that into consideration.
Also, as said in one of the other replies, sucking up to 8f8 or sierk will get you nowhere, if anything, it will put them off you, because they are probably seriously sick of suck ups trying to get there foot in the door with the top dogs of the forum.
Also, I think that Mad's posts in the Welcome Forum are just what is needed, to link new members to rules and things if they have not already read them. This encourages them to read the rules, therefore knowing what they should and should not do, and the consequences if the rules are breaking, encouraging them to obey the rules, thus creating a healthier atmosphere on the forum.
With regards to the Moderating/Super Moderating aspect of your 'rant', I have to say I completely agree with you there. I know that now I have said this, Micky and several other people are going to hold a grudge against me, but what you said in your paragraph was true, I honestly do believe that Nixt, Foxmoth or :Jamie should've recieved the job, although it is not really my place to argue with decisions made in an area which I am not involved in, so I will close on that point.
Rant over :)

I have also resigned but this is because I rarely visit the Forum anymore.
---MAD--- is a great administrator. Just because he doesn't have you all on MSN and give out free reputation doesn't mean he isn't. He suggests new ideas, implements ideas from Forum Members and works his butt off to make sure the technical side of this Forum works, as well as ensuring that we have new Forums and moderators.
When choosing a Super Moderator we don't just say "Oh I like his name so lets have him" we go thruogh the moderator logs and see who has had consistently good ones over a period of time. Approval is then given by all of the Forum Management before the person even knows we've discussed them. The whole process takes around 3 days so it isn't as if we just hire anyone.
No one sucks up for their positions on HabboxForum, at least not to myself, sierk or 8Freak8. Admittedly people may be friendly with the names mentioned above but this doesn't mean they get the job anymore than anyone else.
I know for a fact that MAD is a very brilliant admin and does alot of the technical work. he deserved admin > and now forum manager. Hes a very-active person. he doesn't live in the UK and when most of the people commenting now thinks "he doesn't do anything" - its because you are in school. hes ofton online from 9 i the morning till lunch if not later. Therefore thats why you proberlly don't think he is active.
that was mostly becayse A4AOwen hardly knew the rules of the forum, let alone how to run it. but ok i take some of what i said about you back.
the bit about on msn and gives us free rep.. well wth? you don't see wayne & nvrspk giving me rep, and i still like them. so that's utter crap. and the bit about moderator logs must be crap aswell, because most of micky's infractions get reversed, and you can tell that Nixt & Foxmoth do a hell of a lot of work. &the end bit about no one sucking up, that's also a pile of crap, i've even been told by people they only suck up so they can get high position. i'm glad you quit.
oh and btw ---MAD---, the thing about msn is a lie, once i randomly added 8freak8 to msn and he accepted. i talk to him sometimes too.
Gary, was staff here ages ago, he was a news reporter. he had previous knowledge of the forum and its rules, he was in the News team with Coolmandan6 - who was his partner with wonderworld theme park.
I believe he did know all the ins and outs, however since he resigned as news reporter alot of members joined, sometimes being rebelious so and so's and then sometimes not. He has had Management experiance, and Admin experiance as he had a vBulletin forum for WWTP.
Not true i use the whole of the forums, a mojority of my posts may be in the runescape section but thats only because i happen to play the game. And if you have a problem with any of my infractions please feel free to report them
Needless to say - Dan (Legoman) had been a moderator for the longest - i think he desserved the s-mod job.
Again, Dan lives in the UK but he is mostly on in the mornings as he works at a themepark where he lives in the afternoon ; he then has to come off most of the time because his brother (Joahh) wants to come on. ;)
all well and good, but he isn't online no where as near as much as all the others, and doesn't put in as much work or effort as much as the others. this isn't a personal vendetta against him or nothing, but the best person should be picked for the job. and i will stand by that.
i believe, if i remember correctly - micky moderated the games catagory if not just the Runescape forum. i know you dislike that forum therefore i doubt you'd see his actions. :)

i didn't say dan didn't deserve the smod job, i never once mentioned him? :s and well i got told that gary hadn't a clue with the admin stuff, and this was by someone high up. they told me he didn't have the foggiest in what he was doing.
edit: thank you pixel, and now you can't see that pixel is just sticking up for his mates because i don't actually think he's like that. it does go to show how much other forum members know, and feel about who should get the promotions here.

and mad does do alot of work, I was in the graphic department once, he's actually very very active in that category, as it runs for the whole forum.. The whole graphic team helped him make the halloween skin, they made the buttons and stuff, and he made the skin.
and tbh, I also agree of nixt being a good choice [even though he isnt.]
micky's alright I suppose, he was good in the forum he modded.
I hope someone like -legoman-, catszy, nvrspk4, or wayne become the asst manager.

I think perhaps this is all a bit hasty. They haven't had a chance to prove themselves in their new jobs yet. Surely we cannot assume anything at the moment? Mad is a gr8 innovator who could bring loads of positive things to the forum amd Mickey is an excellent mod who has been missing a bit lately because of holidays and stuff. There are some other great mods who I'm sure would have been in the running such as Nixt, Jamie, Jimi, Foxmoth and Xzuno to name a few and I hope their turn will come :D Dan -legoman- is a great supermod who spends long hours and works tirelessly for the forum.
I am very sad that Ostinato has gone as I hope he might have reconsidered.
Wayne and Nvrspk4 are both brilliant at the jobs they do and I agree if they want promotion, they thoroughly deserve it. There are also a couple of ex mods that were excellent that it would be nice to see back but at the end of the day someone has to make a difficult choice. They have made it and I think people should now wait and see how they perform in their new positions.

ok i agree i was a bit harsh about mad, saying he did nothing, but i still feel Ostinato deserved it a little bit more.. also, as i've said before. i never once mentioned -legoman- in my post, but ok lol. i just feel that there are plenty more moderators that would fill the shoes of a super moderator a lot better. i don't really blame ostinato for resigning.

30-11-2006, 10:18 AM
I'm going to have to disagree with you about the bit about ---MAD---. He is a nice guy and I'm sure he does alot of work. I don't see why you are so bothered about him posting in the introductions forum, is he not allowed to do that? He chooses to do that in his spare time, I don't really see why it concerns anyone else.
Don't take this the wrong way, all the admins are pretty nice people. Ostinato did deserve the position as much as MAD, but its really not your choice is it. He is a really nice guy, but its not like the management hire people depending fully on their personalitys.
Thanks for that :)

Yes its true, whoever is made forum manager will definitely receive complaints because of the large audience at habbox forum, its impossible to keep everyone happy however upper management have to make sure they make the right decisions for the long run :).

Yes I agree, I was surprised everyone jumped on micky.blue.eyes so quickly, he was only just announced. Give him a chance, I am sure he will prove himself worthy, if not, it can be changed ;)!

You are the bigger man by taking things back, its not an easy task and I can tell you for a fact, very few people do that on this forum ;).

It tends to be my headache, yesterday I was exhausted. I am quite good at choosing managers, I've only ever regretted one manager decision, and I reversed that when I realised I got it wrong. I think I've made the right decision by making MAD Forum Manager. Ostinato also deserved to be Forum Manager, but MAD just cut it more.
As for Super Moderators, I think that will be solved over time.

A lot you do not realise how much work some staff do behind the scenes, you may not of saw MAD hiring the forum moderators and doing all the things you expect from a forum manager but i have known him to be a hard worker and he probably did a lot of behind the scene stuff, plus when i worked here i knew forum staff would have to do one hell of a lot of work to keep this place running, you may not see what they do but they do alot! It use to take hours sometimes doing work each night and that would be a few of us spending hours working on here not just one admin, it would be the whole team and none of you probably even would of noticed, and i am sure that is probably the same with these admins.
Some of you need to give them a lot more repect than you do, as sometimes i think they are to soft on some of you and should ban your butt (nearly forgot i cant swear)!
And it really is not nice when you make posts saying "blah blah shouldn't be admin/super mod"...especially if they were just hired, this simply will wind up the staff, you should just PM 8freak8 or someone with your views in a polite way, if a few of you do it then i am sure it will be noted and something will be done if not straight away then maybe in the future.

threads like this are important for getting our (the members) view of things across. sure things wont always be changed but its good to let the managers know, then if it does go wrong we can feel better seeing it go wrong when we warned them.
i personally felt that Ostinato should have got the promotion rather than MAD, even though he is fantastic at his job it just doesnt seem fair.
i cant comment to much on micky as i havent seen him moderating, but im sure he deserves it.
being a super moderator is a lot of work and forum management have high expectations of you, when i was a super moderator there was a lot to do, you had to be on top form, if they didnt feel you met the bill then you were removed. simple as, lots of super moderators tend to resign over time as they feel its too much. dont really blame them.
i think that nvrspk is also rejected a bit, i know he wants to be forum manager but he just cant seem to get offered it.
but best of luck to them in their new jobs.

1. i've already taken back some of what i said about mad.
2. you can swear, just not avoid the filter...
3. i'd see that as rather two faced, why not let them know? then others can say their opinions, members opinions should be valued a lot more than what they are.

Some people complain that some moderators give a lot of infractions that get reversed later. So far we have never registered which infractions get reversed. We are planning to start recording this from now on, so that we can see which moderator's infractions get often reversed, and we can work to improve this.

Ben got infractioned for changing micky's name so you will be as well
He changed my name to an offensive name.
I think Micky.Blue.eyes deserves a super moderator job.
I see things you don't, like the work he puts in, the willingness to change the way he is working (something I sure as hell can't do), the amount of work he does.
Reason you don't see him online that much?
Well, do you actually go searching for his name?
I know for a fact, he lives +1 hour from UK time, when we're finishing school, he is likely to be on here and helping out with moderating.
I know for a fact, he's defiantly 1 of the longest moderators we've had, not in this current spell, no; but he has worked as a moderator before.
And he is also very level-headed, which (i'm not saying anyone else isn't, but since he's the topic, i'm referring to him), is quite essential for this role.
and the only reason i'm going to mention M.B.E, is because noone else has really stood up for him. :)
Thank you. :)
I WAS LYK THE BEST SUPA MOD
anyway, MAD does alot from what I hear from 8f8.
He is continuassly suggesting ways to update the forum etc...
You were indeed a great smod. :)
but when :Jamie was a super mod before you all complained because you thought he shouldn't of got the job. Now you're saying that he should be one.
Exactly what I was going to say.
Micky.Blue.eyes dosn't deserve it he gives poor infractions
I only gave you 1 infraction and it was a fair one, so you can't judge my infractions.
To all the people who say I'm never on line:
I am. I sometimes use the invisible mode but I can't anymore as I'm a super mod now. I haven't been on line much last week because my internet was down for 4 days, if you are judging my activeness on the previous week you obviously don't know what you're talking about. :)
If you judge my activeness on the amount of posts I make then you might think I'm not on line very much, but modding has nothing to do with the amount of posts a moderator makes, I was often busy taking care of things, but I did post a lot in the graphics forums, I've helped a lot of people with their alts, but there are many threads with alts that don't need help or the help is already given by other people, so there is no point in posting the same tips twice.
To all the people who say lots of my infractions get reversed:
Yes, when I first started as a mod I was a little too harsh and quite a lot of infractions got reversed, but for the last 6-7 weeks (no idea how long) almost none (if any at all) got reversed, why? Because I learned to give infractions in a better way. So you can't say most of infraction are reversed because I also check the "report infractions thread" and I don't see many infractions of mine being reported, and if they are they're not reversed.
To all the people who say the infractions I give are rubbish:
Most people who said this are the people who are angry because I gave them an infraction and it didn't get reversed.
Most people don't even know my and the work I do so I don't get why they've posted in this thread.
I work hard and put a lot of effort in moderating, some people might not see this, but that's not my problem, the managers did, hence why they've chosen me to become a super mod.
The runescape section how ever does suport me and they think I'm a great mod, you might think they say that because I play runescape too and they like me, but even the respected people (no offence to the other runescape players :p) think I'm a good mod and they stuck up for me when I got fired the first time I was a mod.
And MAD does deserve to be the manager, you've no idea how much work he does behind the scenes.

they both deserve their jobs, i think the main cause of this rant is jealousy, mad has done nothing but work his butt off since day 1 so there is no doubt he should have the job, remember we only see what we want to see in a member, i dont care if you guys call me suck up..again but im just speaking the truth
micky.blue.eyes also deserves to be s.mod he does do his job very well just because he gives infractions, lets get over it, its his job lol
this is what i beleive, but hey everyone has there own opinion

All These people are doing a great job! if they won't i don't think Habbox will be still up becuase there will be loads of bugs which carn't be sorted out.. If we didert have MAD What will happen? We need these Super Mods there Class there Always Freindly. If you resive a Infraction Don't think it's personal you might have of broke the rules.. Like in micky's Sig
"Infractions given by me are not personal, just me doing my job."

Yeah, I have put that system in place already and is in trial. See thats something the public didn't know about..infact no-one did..only admins/smods :p.

Yes but to be fair -Lava- that was the old way of doing it and mods were doing them and its only recently that smods have been dealing with them have gone back to warnings and Mickey is new to the section.
Also he realised that then and asked for the infraction to be reversed when
he didnt really have to. I made a mistake in the same day with you and sometimes we all make mistakes. Its when people refuse to admit it and not do anything about it that its a problem.:D

I think Mad is a great Admin. I have seen him do loads of work on this forum and keeping it in shape. I have got to admit though, I have barely ever seen any posts or anything from Micky.blue.eyes.

Answer is below:

And something I want to add: When we give infraction you normally used to automatically get an pm notifying you got an infraction, it changed and I didn't know that at the time I gave you an infraction (like most mods).

Guess we don't visit the same forums, it would be stupid of me if I for example post in the web design forum because I have no knowledge of web designing. ;)

No-one seems to have mentioned this, but surely the best forum managers/admins/smods are the ones that dont get mentioned. The ones that aren't noticed. Thats because the majority of their work is behind closed doors, and to be noticed would mean that they aren't doing it properly. For that reason alone I thought mad was the obvious choice. I also personally thought that Ostinato was a good assistant, however the thread he made when he wasnt given F-M i thought clearly demonstrated why he wasnt given it.
