Userbit Idea

[hah]

http://i46.tinypic.com/23u9zpt.png

Ive seen this on other fan-sites before and i think it looks real nice. For people who don't know what it is a replacement for the text system thats used at Habbox to show Habbo names, instead it shows a flag and if you hover over it the Habbo name is displayed and when you click the flag it brings you to the Habbo homepage of that Habbo. I think it only works on Verticle userbits.

And it wouldn't really clog up the userbit, you could hide location because i dont really know what thats displayed? lol When you can just look on their profile page, and you could also hide the blog part that is shown on the userbit. You could also get rid of gender from it as well lol

[Hecktix]

Brilliant suggestion Graham, if someone knows how to do it?

[scottish]

Don't really see the point as you can go on the persons profile and see it all anyways just more useless images/links on the postbit

[Jamesy]

Brilliant suggestion Graham, if someone knows how to do it?

It must be something similar to:


<vb:if condition="$post['fieldX']"><a href="habbowhatever/{vb:var post.fieldX}"><img src="images/country.png" /></a></vb:if>

(vb4 conditionals)

[hah]

But i suggested to get rid of some, and them four flags takes up the same ammount of space as the "Habbo Uk Name: _____: part does

[scottish]

If i'm in the habbo section it'll be because i'm trading and i'd rather see Habbo name: ______ rather than 4-5 flags for different hotels about something i have no interest in, if i was interested in their other habbos i'd go on their profile and see it instead of having to open another page/look at link to find their username

[leah]

oh it's graham LOL hiya xo

anyway yeah it is a good idea, would be much better to modernise the layout of hxf cause it is getting outdated. +rep if i can :}

[Immenseman]

rename this to clubhabbo too whilst you're at it

[hah]

Most people dont have their habbo name is that part tho and usually post it in the thread anyways...... you dont have to put a name in for every hotel, just the one you use and all it takes is a simple hover

edit; jake im trying to turn hxf into chf

But Hababble had this first and Habbcrazy? So not really copying clubhabbo :P

[jackass]

Please don't do this, it would look tacky on this forum, and I don't want mine or anyone elses userbit any more Habbo related!

[leah]

rename this to clubhabbo too whilst you're at it

CH aren't the only site to display habbo names and links to habbo homes etc...

[Titch]

very good suggestion graham, would look soo much better and makes forum look more moden!


Please don't do this, it would look tacky on this forum, and I don't want mine or anyone elses userbit any more Habbo related!

Its called Habboxforum for a reason, its based around habbo!!!!!!!!!

[jackass]

very good suggestion graham, would look soo much better and makes forum look more habboey!

Fixed it for you.

And it really wouldn't make it look better...

[Immenseman]

CH aren't the only site to display habbo names and links to habbo homes etc...

oh just seen ur post graham facepalm is for u 2

i would actually prefer that but then it could only be viewed vertically or w/e because it'd be dead ugly else and some people would have a panic attack if they had to change the way they viewed the forum

[hah]

Please don't do this, it would look tacky on this forum, and I don't want mine or anyone elses userbit any more Habbo related!

Maybe edit it so on a non-Habbo skin its disabled

Alot of people have their habbo name in there, and don't always post it in the thread... didn't say you had to put a habbo name in for every hotel but in the Habbo trading/habbo uk i only expect to see the persons habbo UK name not 4 flags or whatever with different hotels as theres absolutely no point when the current method is fine...

[jackass]

Maybe edit it so on a non-Habbo skin its disabled

True, but I use the Classic forum skin, simply because I hate the only non-Habbo skin we have.

[hah]

the Habbo usernames show all over the forum?

edit; bio, you might like the new skins :P and switch from classic

[leah]

Don't see how this is "facepalm" hunneh xD! What I said was true, although he used CH's pic he could of gone to other fansites and saw the same thing or at least something similar.

[Immenseman]

@leah can you not tell by his reaction it's called a j o k e

omg if you go into options and make the post bit go on the left, it's so sexy. the flag could go next to the online/offline badge the rep thing and report post thing, same size, would be perfecto.

[scottish]

imho habbo names should own be shown in the habbo sections

like runescape userbit is only shown in the runescape forum, same with xbox/ps3/wii etc

And titch, because its forum based on habbo doesn't mean every user uses it and alot of them don't so why would they wanna see even more habbo stuff on it? lol

[Jamesy]

Maybe edit it so on a non-Habbo skin its disabled

Ugh conditionals everywhere.

I actually rather like this, images could also be easily skin specific by using {vb:stylevar imgdir} or whatever it is.

And non habbo-like icons look nicer than "Habbo Name: xxxxxxx". At least to me, but then I like icons :eusa_danc

[luce]

it wouldn't suite this forum like it does to Ch which is where i thnk you took that from lol because we have better skins then them it would look tacky :D!

[hah]

They aint even Habbo icons? they are flags? nothing to do with Habbo lol....... Habbo usernames will show on any skin so i dont even know why that should be an issue bio/jamsey lol?

[Jamesy]

I was agreeing with you graham, that flag icons are not habbo-ish :)

[hah]

ohhhhh sorry then :P

[The Professor]

Yes, add icons for twitter, msn, facebook etc while you're at it, all the cool forums do it. Make a PSN/Xbox/Wii logo show up in the relevant forums, who cares if it looks tacky its what all the cool modern sites are doing :D

[hah]

i only suggested it because its a Habbo forum...

[jackass]

i only suggested it because its a Habbo forum...

Not just Habbo.

[Black_Apalachi]

rename this to clubhabbo too whilst you're at it

lolololol i just said that to you basically. idc if you were jokin tho ;l

[scottish]

people grow up and out of habbo so less members play it, forums like club habbo from what i believe majority of the forum use it, habbox is aimed more at a mature audience so generally older people who don't wish habbo all over the site

[Jamesy]

The flag icons show less habbo than having "Habbo Name: xxx" in the postbit.

[scottish]

I never said they did? i just replied to the statement someone else made

[Alkaz]

I dont like it, not many people bother with them things on their profile and thats just going to clog it up even more. They should concerntrate on retaining new users and not pretty much pointless features like this.

[Sammeth.]

I'll be honest it just looks like changing things for the sake of changing them.

[hah]

or else changeing something to make it look nice?

[Black_Apalachi]

I'll be honest it just looks like changing things for the sake of changing them.

this.

focus on things that habbox needs please. rep was the first step. congrats. now move onto one of the many things people have brought up over the past few weeks which will actually make a difference to the forum.

[hah]

Im sure if someone else suggested this you would have agreed with them :)

[scottish]

The fact its a pointless feature doesn't mean a member of management has a problem with you or something?

I'm sure you were the one to say about twitter and that got implemented, i guess he just let you off that once? :rolleyes:

[The Professor]

I'll be honest it just looks like changing things for the sake of changing them.

Its trying to make the forum look like it hasn't come out of a 1970s sci fi film. You could say that about new skins, forum reshuffling, anniversary rep, toenails, I could go on.

[hah]

I dunno, how it is now looks alright to me, not exactly gonna make it look like its come out of a 2010 action movie.

You could say that about all those things, but I'll still say it about this...

[Jamesy]

Sammeth, I think it could work nicely on the new skins, at the very least the non-habbo ones to remove the word "habbo" from it (those icons would look sexy on the nh-light methinks).

What Alex said, there's no reason why little things that take the best part of 180 seconds to implement but produce a nice result to modernise our image can't be done.

[Sammeth.]

Well lets look into implementing it when we move to 4.0

[jackass]

They should just be displayed in the Habbo section then. :(

[scottish]

yeh i thought that was already done ^

cause when your looking at a thread in discuss anything you're not exactly bothered what their habbo name is :P

It should be displayed in like HxHD forum and Habbo forums

[GommeInc]

rename this to clubhabbo too whilst you're at it
Pheww, not just me noticing this then? To be fair, they got alot of hassle in the past, but they seem to be doing alot of things right now (CHF).

[Black_Apalachi]

Im sure if someone else suggested this you would have agreed with them :)

I'm sure I wouldn't have. I generally don't even pay attention to who the author of a post is unless I'm responding to them directly as opposed to just an opinion on something in general.

[Blinger1]

Maybe its just me, but if a 'lesser known' or 'popular person' (just using you as an example, drakeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee eeeeeeeeee) suggests something it isn't really taken into consideration by most of the forum, but when someone 'popular' (say missalice) suggests something, then everybody jumps onto it like a fat man on KFC.

Maybe it's because people like MissAlice usually suggest useful ideas that will significantly improve the forum.

[Blinger1]

or perhaps everybody prefers them/thinks its better because someone older suggests it.

How does this not improve the forum? It does. Everybody says (including me) that the skins look terrible, these will help make it look better.

[Black_Apalachi]

MissAlice's recent suggestion: Improve the welcome new members receive.
This would have a long-term effect on the forum as members who feel welcome will be more inclined to stay on the forum.

This idea: Change the Habbo Name profile field to world flag icons.
In some people's opinion it might look better.

Like I said, people such as MissAlice tend to suggest ideas that will have significant long-term effects on the forum community.

[Blinger1]

Like I said, people such as MissAlice tend to suggest ideas that will have significant long-term effects on the forum community.

Sure it does, but other lesser known people (no offense to skizzling and a few others) suggested that we change the mobile skin (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=621173), which would 1) benefit current users of that skin; and 2) by satisfying current users it has the potential to also retain these members, which habbox does rely on.

Three or more threads have been made about the skin one and nothing has been done, one person makes a thread about welcoming someone and everybody jumps on it like a poor man on money.

[Black_Apalachi]

OK I'll try to explain this again. The welcome thread issue relates to improving the community in the long-term. Changes to the skins are merely to please the few people who won't stop whining about them. Personally I think the current skins are perfectly fine as they are however anything to improve the treatment of new members is pretty much a priority.

Can you honestly say that this (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=621218&page=3&styleid=62) looks good?

You must have missed my point. These threads have been asked for for about 1 year (at least) and almost nothing has been done. This problem has been around longer then new members leaving.
One person (missalice) makes a thread and BAM! its done instantly, other people suggest something and then its like "hmm, well, ummm... we COULD do something... hmm".

I've suggested a new mobile skin to Jin and the other content team.

[Black_Apalachi]

I dunno, I haven't viewed it on a mobile (I was referring to the normal skins). Cba repeating myself, just re-read what I said about the differences between the actual suggestions until you understand.

ANYWAY, I don't think changing 'Habbo Name' to [flag pics] is extremely necessary but whatever floats your boat ;).

[Blinger1]

I dunno, I haven't viewed it on a mobile (I was referring to the normal skins). Cba repeating myself, just re-read what I said about the differences between the actual suggestions until you understand.

Yep, you should re-read what i wrote about how retaining members is just as important.

Maybe something will be done, finally ;)

Yeah he's posted it in the Site Project Manager so infrequent and Jin should see it soon. Oh and Sammeth.

Although we may have to wait until vb4 to get it done - depends what the green names say.

I didn't want to highjack this thread, I was just propving my point to Sargent

[hah]

Missalice suggest that the staff post more, this was suggest in the "forum going down hill" thread and it was ignored by staff... but when Missalice posted it...

So their is your example gone Sergio

[Blinger1]

oops, can't +rep you again. I've +repped you for something else in this thread anyway.

[Immenseman]

ya all blates copyin me with the example of alice

it's true that if an older/more respected member suggests something, it'll be considered more than a random. i did bring this up in my thread last week or whatever. however, that's just the way it is. if the prime minister was to say something he'd be more listened to than the man down the road

[Blinger1]

I only said missalice because of what happened the other week. ;)

[Black_Apalachi]

The moral of this novel is; whether you believe they would be useful or not, little flag icons wouldn't be very fitting with the current skins. Although, perhaps a poll would provide an insight into the views of the whole forum?

[hah]

i dont see why you need to poll everything? The GM said he was looking to implement this into vb4 so thats that?

[scottish]

because if a GM and the original poster of an idea loved one and every single member who posted (say 30) said they didn't it would seem pretty stupid to implement something no-one would like.................................. duh

Not masses recently but if you go back a few years...

Aren't these new skins done yet? They're not meant to take more than 1 or 2 months :S

[Immenseman]

No time to dwell. To add, I don't remember anything major since I've been a member and I'm pretty sure I've been a member for around the same amount as time as you.

They're waiting until they update to a new version of vB or something, probably means more to you than it does to me :P

Did Jake's comment about 4.0 also come into the equation? :P

[Jin]

As mentioned previously, waiting on a stable-stable version of vB 4.0 as with early editions they tend to update the version frequently. There is already plans for 4.0.2 sometimes towards the end of this month and between gold and .2 the css is changing slightly though it hasn't been specified what exactly.

We also need to port across our customizations, hacks and test the product so no we aren't taking a head first approach as the foolish people would do.

[The Professor]

Do we have some sort of timeframe for this? We've been hearing about this VB 4 for a few months now! :)

Why does it have to wait until vB4? If the coders here can't simply grab data from a profile field then return it in fused with an image taking up a few lines of code then there's something up.

What is the point in changing when the skins will be obsolete in a couple of weeks or so?

What is the point in changing when the skins will be obsolete in a couple of weeks or so?
What is the point in not doing it now when I've just given you the code?

[Jamesy]

Probably making it fit into existing skins needlessly when as they are they are fine. Any changes like that may as well be implemented into the new skins rather than wasting time editing these ones.

That's what I don't get. It takes literally 10 minutes to create the fields (if you don't have them already, I think you do) then paste that into the postbit_legacy template.

I don't think something as simple as this shouldn't be done because of vB4. I've just added an on/off feature for certain postbit items on CH and we'll also be upgrading.

It makes the user content and happy, so why not add it?

[scottish]

From what i've seen in this thread more people disagree than agree (didn't count exactly just from what i remember) so it's not reappy making the users happy? :S

Not everybody wants it, so whats the point in adding it. If added in vb4 the development team can implement it properly into the new skins while also allowing the user to turn it off and on again, depending on what they like. (Not saying this is actually happening). Why add it now if we can implement it later on the new skins and make it actually look nice?

I don't like the userbars here, but I put up with them and I guess a lot of people like them.

I don't like the stars here (the things by your name) but I put up with them.

I didn't see, and I don't care, about the amount of people that said they wanted it. I merely visited this thread, noticed the idea was from CH and **kindly** showed you the code we had.

Problem?

[scottish]

Yes because you can't get over the fact they said no.

Clearly they don't wish to implement it at this time, so get over it.

[emotional]

Why can't I get over it? I couldn't care less, I only visit this forum a few times a week and don't really post. ;s

I don't care whether this implemented or not, I simply helped you out by providing the code should you want to use it. You wouldn't see other fansites doing it.

[GommeInc]

I'm guessing vBulletin boards do not upgrade smoothly, or is the userbit as mentioned in this idea like a hack which will not upgrade with vB 4.0?

And why are you having a go at emotional? He's only sharing his ideas in a mature way, he doesn't appear to be for or against the idea, just suggesting a way to do it if Habbox were to make it happen, which isn't a bad thing :S

i dont see why everyone is moaning so much at a few images that take up the same space as the current system.......

i think they should only show in the habbo skins tho

[Blinger1]

I chose all skins because ifthe non habbo skin is **** again then I'm stickin to a habbo one =\

yano that means you want them on the new skin btw? :P

[Blinger1]

Yep, i'm saying, if the new skins non-habbo skins are average i'll probably stick to a habbo one (and i don't play habbo anymore). Oh yeah, any non habbo light skins coming?

[Jamesy]

Yes. It's a light blue and grey one.

[Blinger1]

ehh, =\.. i do hope its a nice shade..

[Black_Apalachi]

I'd vote 'Yes - Just Habbo' but I'm not sure which skins are considered Habbo skins. Is the Retro Blue?

[Chippiewill]

Yes - Just Non-Habbo
What on earth would be the point in that?

[hah]

dunno :lol: ask jamie.... he added it

[Jamesy]

What on earth would be the point in that?

Sorry, at the time I was just thinking everything should have an opposite :P

[hah]

I'll be honest it just looks like changing things for the sake of changing them.


Sammeth, I think it could work nicely on the new skins, at the very least the non-habbo ones to remove the word "habbo" from it (those icons would look sexy on the nh-light methinks).

What Alex said, there's no reason why little things that take the best part of 180 seconds to implement but produce a nice result to modernise our image can't be done.


Well lets look into implementing it when we move to 4.0

Just kinda proves a point that some peoples ideas are over looked because they are not a "well respected member"

[Sammeth.]

Since when is Jamesy a well respected member :S It is a change just for the sake of changing them, but theres no point in doing it now, if we do do it (which I never said we would, I said we'll look into it) it would be for 4.0.

[hah]

you can turn them of btw

when you install obv

[Pyroka]

its a good idea, but theres no point. habbox has always been styled in a certain way, changing that sorta ruins the habbox feel. we dont want to go trying to mimic 'other fansites' *COUGH CLUBHABBO COUGH*

theres no need for it.

[Rixion]

I like this idea, since it is a habbo forum.

Don't hurt his feelings :( I respect Jamesy :)

They're not Habbo icons, they're just flags.

[hah]

But its displaying Habbo names :)

[Immenseman]

but we can display them already

[hah]

but they look nicer :'( and you could display all your Habbo names in the same amount of space it takes to displays just one

[Pix]

but they look nicer :'( and you could display all your Habbo names in the same amount of space it takes to displays just one

but we have to hover over it and we are lazy ppl :(

nvm this lol wrong thread, was for badges one :lol:

[Black_Apalachi]

Does anyone even use that many hotels? I bet there is a very small amount who use multiple hotels compared to the amount that only use UK.

[dogboy123]

I think it looks ok, but I think a small image of your habbo cause i remember hababble did it and it looked quite good

[scottish]

Hell no ben, people want less habbo related stuff not more.

[hah]

less habbo on a habbo based forum?? you play habbo everyday do why do you want less

[Immenseman]

tbh most peeps on here make out they h8 habbo and play it

i am PROUD

[scottish]

Because when i'm on forum i don't want habbo avatars everywhere, believe it or not alot of people don't play habbo :S so not everyone wants ya lil pic or some crap sitting in the postbit

[Immenseman]

the majority of this forum play habbo. people need to get that illusion out of their head!

[scottish]

what was result of that poll a while ago about ppl playing habz.

[Immenseman]

more people play than don't. admittedly was a while ago.

[Barmi]

I'm in favour of flags rather than the current line of text, but on the grounds that it's a useful visual change. (Not because it's any more or less Habbo related, or that it's change for the sake of change, whichever conservative moron said that...)

On a related matter, no poll can escape the fact that this is a Habbo related forum. Take MacRumors Forum as an example: just because there are more general categories featured on it, it does not mean its users would stand free of ridicule if they asked for less Mac imagery... even if said user had moved back to PC. The same goes for any game or hobby themed forum.

Heck I don't log on Habbo often, but I'm old enough to not give a damn what people think about a browser window I might have open. The truth is it's a Habbo forum. Those who have issue with it should either suck it up (like the rest of us), or log out for good.

[scottish]

poll results/link 2 poll results pls

"Current line of text" is more useful as you can see the habbo name without having to go on the page/hovering over it if you have status bar enabled, i'd much rather see a persons habbo name written out then i can easily add them to friends list or whatever if i'm trading etc than a link to another page which i'd then have to find the users name...

[hah]

he never said there was a poll, he said if there was one...

if you click the flag it brings you to the users page where there is an add as friend button? or all you need to do is hover and type it into the box on habbo (which you have to do with the current one anyways)

[Immenseman]

there was a poll. results were hidden. i was agm and mad told me. it's in forum poll forum probably, results will still probably be hidden. people who post here might not use habbo but people who use gxf/games/habbo/trading often do

[Black_Apalachi]

Graham which Habbos do you play?

[hah]

all them, but i dont see why that has anything to do with the thread when we already have the fields for the names of other hotels, its just making them look nicer

i said there was one.. not everyone has status bar on so can't hover over it... and not everyone uses the same browser for everything so wouldn't be logged on habbo in same browser = inconvenience.

so no results existed publically..theres alot more sections than just the 4 though and not everyone who uses gfx/games does as alot are runescape members and various other games or are addicted to xbox/ps3 now instead of habbo :)

[Black_Apalachi]

lol why don't you want flag icons for all of them then?

thanks ^

in all honesty i couldn't care less about habbo skins, as i don't use them :P but no-habbo dark skin i'd prefer seein gHabbo name: ... as its more convenient.

[Immenseman]

point proven -rep.

anyway the poll in here shows 50;50 atm, no point changing. well not 50;50 but the poll is stupid because why would you have habbo flags on a non habbo skin lol

34% don't want them at all
34% want them on all skins

i don't see how it's helpful but then i don't really care either way, won't be losing any sleep

Aren't flags just flags? Calling them Habbo flags is a bit misleading, or do you mean having the userbit information that shows what country and Habbo the user users? :P
