I really do like this, makes a change for it to be in a bigger room. Also allows the desk to be used for events over Christmas. I kinda have to agree that its not like a regular help desk style. It was changing into a lounge-design after all..

I woudn't be suprised if it's advertised by Habbo somewhere either.

Hmm i like the layout, i just dont like the fact its in a big room but its a really good layout :)

I dnt like big rooms but I think its just change that I don't like, but it does look kwl u cant say it aint, plus scott wen u get banned from the desk u can hide behind the big crimbo tree.

Alkaz designed it, its bloody awesome. Although I still think a smaller room would have been better but Jin disagrees as it will be used for many Habbox Functions.

I took a empty room pic of it last week so its better :) Here it is.

Wait, isnt events for the EVENTS department? :S So make hxhd ugly so you can steal events from another department, lol.

Yeh, i agree with scott about if i went in there i would thing its some chill room or something it looks nothing like a help desk.

Also at the lounge thing its hardly a lounge as their increasing staff numbers again and increasing the size of the actual desk, like when sammeth owned it and it got changed to lounge staff was capped at 12 i think and the staff area was liek 4x4, it then got changed back to normal and the staff was increased again, so basically it was announced as loungue as the lower staff/are but now thats undone so...

unfortunately this isn't a joke, jake.

and darkenemy i dont get banned from hxhd m8 plus hoteluser has HC so can use chooser.

I think it's a really good design but the fact of a big room is when someone is being rude you might not be able to hear them if you're on the other side of the room. :P

I really like it though :D

Immenseman
04-11-2009, 06:27 PM
i'm just saying it because i've used hxhd for years. big room has just ruined it completely. it's a help desk not a habbox function room. end of.

hah
04-11-2009, 06:30 PM
why does Alkaz get to do it :S:S

think the manager should do it :S

also yeah dont like it, Look at yourhabbo rooms.. should be taking a few tips from them

Jin owns the room and because Alkaz is a great room designer? The room looks great but its not ideal as a Help Desk.

LMAO scotty. I love Joe and all that but it's like we can't criticise the room because Joe made it?! It's not like he's one of the people who always win the room competitions etc. Anyway, the room is nice. It's not a help desk.

CHA!NGANG
04-11-2009, 06:38 PM
Don't like it :( Well I like the room, and it's a good design but just don't like having a big room. Oh well I guess it's clear now that it's definently not a Help Desk anymore, more of a chill room :P

leah
04-11-2009, 06:40 PM
although it's different, I love it. It has aspects of old hxhd which are familiar and the blend of outside and inside looks really good too, well done Jin :)

hxhd staff can only moderate one side of the room if your using 'say' ;)

and its nice, but too big.

Inseriousity.
04-11-2009, 07:08 PM
I like it, nice little 'ice rink' style thing. :)
Don't really mind about the size because for me, it's always been a lounge (then again now that old Habbo's gone, I'll probably need help. new habbo is just all over the place).

edit: still no cola machine though... I will be victorious one day...

You're more than welcome to critisise the layout. It is currently the winter theme which can easily be adapted to christmas and then back again after that period. Obviously, like people have said already its for events and with so many big events that people want to hold in HxHD its not always possible. Now this year it is possible and I know Jin has already said that after this layout, it will go back to the small room again.

And for the people saying about its for events blah blah, you dont know what HxHD might have instore?

Immenseman
04-11-2009, 07:18 PM
well generally help desks don't have things "instore" habbox has quite an apt events department to keep the habbo users happy.

Alkaz
04-11-2009, 07:21 PM
But each department are encouraged to hold events and competitions. In a larger themed room it makes it easier for all to have one main central place.

Calvin
04-11-2009, 07:37 PM
also, whats the point of a huge room if half of it is closed? (the gates for the snow thing are closed and hoteluser won't open them!!)

He told me its closed because if someone talks it doesn't show their bubble. Still what is the point of it being closed. :(

HxHD should have events like quests which LINK TO ANOTHER ROOM.

Every other past manager has managed to do this, make their own set of rooms stick a tele in the main help desk and people who want to do the quest go there. It's not hard, really......

I fail to see why they have to make a huge ugly room to do what previous managers achieved in a small nice room.

04-11-2009, 07:46 PM
I like the room and think its an alright idea to have it big. It doesnt suit it just because its never been done before I think, thats why its a bit wierd. But over the Christmas period all departments pitch in with events, as we like to get quite a large number out there to give everyone more of a chance to get to one. I do think its quite silly to close off the gates to the snow area when there are staff in the room that can easily walk out of the staff area to moderate. But they've gotta do what they've gotta do.

Martin
04-11-2009, 07:48 PM
There are some people in the "Icey" bit now, but the gate is closed. How come they are allowed in there. :(

coz hoteluser is a scammer and said last person to stay in there wins a prize :eusa_whis

then closed them

Might be a good idea to tweak the design and move the staff area more to the left or bang in the middle of the room.

scottish
04-11-2009, 08:11 PM
or make a wintery small room removing the 60% of the room that isn't used and closed off.

Not all HxHD managers have had Jin make the room in the past and have spent so much time working on a layout. Things have worked in the past, but why is it so wrong to change and try new things? If this dont work AT ALL then obviously there is no reason not to go back to the old way but if it proves to be a good way for events etc in the desk then why not?

With the Autumn/Halloween layout, everyone HATED it at first because it was so different but it soon died down and people actually liked it. No one is giving it a chance to settle in and see if it works.

Chippiewill
04-11-2009, 08:24 PM
For some reason no ones posted a mahoosive version so I couldn't see what it was like properly :/

It actually looks quite good in big mode tbh and does look like a help desk

Alkaz
04-11-2009, 08:26 PM
Also with the idea of moving the desk, it would be quiet hard, if you look it is actually meant to be a house (desk), then a garden (events area) and then a road.

wish my garden was that big... :(

Ignore the creative side of it and think about the practical advantages of having the desk in the middle of the room?

Alkaz
04-11-2009, 08:31 PM
Seriously, stop being so negative. Give it a go, Jin isnt going to just cave in and change it. The more you moan the more determinded he will be to keep it because thats all it is, moaning, no contructivity.
Thats not the point of being able to make it work, the room was designed like it was for its purpose.

Stop moaning at others for moaning alkaz when you are moaning yourself by doing that! You should of thought about this situation before releasing to public and fixed it. I am sure with your "SUPER DUPER" creative skills can re-do the room.

P.S Wheres my habboween furniz now hxhd layout changed?

Alkaz
04-11-2009, 08:37 PM
Why is everyone saying I have super room making skills :S
Even if we were to change the desk, people would still moan as its not up to there standard. To be honest, I think credit should be given to Jin for trying to give us fresh layouts every so often. I remember the time when nvrspk owned the desk and it got I think one layout change in like 18months. In the time Jin has owned it, there has been two veriations of one design and a new one.

Hate to go against the trend but I like it (slightly OT but that big mode for big rooms is pretty cool, why couldn't they have had that when I was on :'(). Actually having space for events is good for both departments and yeah it's laid out really nicely. The only questionable thing is the BBQ, is that there for a joke? :P

No one said he has "super room designing" skills. Please stop trying to cause an argument. The room design is great, it's upto Jin on the room size so if you want to flame someone, flame Jin and not Alkaz.

P.S Wheres my habboween furniz now hxhd layout changed?

Once again, no one has said that Alkaz has (and Alkaz has not claimed to have) "SUPER DUPER creative skills". All he has done is tried his best to help Habbox. People would have moaned if it was just a normal non-themed help desk all year round. Now that they get themed rooms, they moan once again. The thing is, most of you don't ever visit HxHD anyway ...
I have always been against the idea of a big helpdesk, but don't flame Alkaz for it.
And I think your habboween furni is still in :Jin:'s account. I hope that answers your question as to 'where it is'.


Yep Joe designed the Habboween HxHD, and I must say he did a pretty nice job! :D

Yep and its bloody amazing. I love that room. I might recreate it (obviously with his permission if he gives it to me).


dont know to many people who close there garden of :S

Most people close their garden gates :)

Yes the big room is not really ideal for a help desk and I disagree with the idea of hosting competitions there but theres nothing we can do now. The chances of the room being changed are extremely slim. Just post your opinions and I am sure they will take it into consideration after the Winter season is over.

If you dont like it, please dont post 'its ****' post something constructive so we can try work on it as we want to make it as good as possible.

The issue with the door closing was that from the staff area you cant see what they're saying, we're trying to get this sorted asap so its all fine :)

Alkaz designed the desk along with me and jin, yes he did most of it but we all chipped in so stop whining at him and again post sumit constructive so we can improve.

Oh and halloween layout was amde by a few of us.

Having the desk in the middle would be quite good. I know the Habbo Mall has a nice desk area on the back wall in the centre - this might be a good spot?

Or, why not go totally different and go slap bang in the middle of the room with space all around? :)

First time I've seen it and I think it's a very nice room. Closing off the events area is fair enough when it's not in use, but then again, doing so just makes the size of the room unnecessary. This could be done in a seperate room for use as required. However as it's only for the Christmas period, I think it brings a pleasant change and is great as it is.
