Staff getting habbo bans

[Titch]

Seriously something needs to be done? there representing habbox on habbo yet over 15 staff i can count have been banned this week on habbo for acting inaproriatly, including 1 AGM, 1 Manager who were banned in the HxHD. Surely if you are in a Offical Habbo room and ur staff your behaviour should be imaculate, I notice alot that HxHD get bans for saying innaproiate stuff in helpdesk, surely if they are being banned they should be fired? its not a good example, several people came into helpdesk yestarday and mentioned that all they seem to see is habbox staff ban accounts now in hxhd, which is true.

Something needs to be done tbh, there ment to be representing habbox.

[hah]

but there e-rebels...

ye lol all account ar NAMEBANEDx454546

fire them all ;l

[Richie]

Leave them be.. there having a laugh its just the hotel staff being douche bags

[Meree.]

Hmmm, possibly. I think depending on the ban it should be decided between a warning and being fired. But sometimes people do get banned for no reason at all. Like some people who don't like one another report for no reason and get someone banned. I see what your saying though.

[Hecktix]

When I was HxHD Manager if you recieved a fair ban from Habbo it was 90% likely you would lose your job at HxHD.

I agree, staff shouldn't be getting banned on Habbo in official Habbox rooms, however staff do hand out some bloody ridiculous bans, so it would need fully investigating.

But yes, if staff do actually do something wrong, I believe they should be punished at Habbox too.

[Richie]

Personally I don't think its habbox's problem or responsibility unless its in one of the offical rooms. That's like working in a argos and going into ikea and start screaming abuse at people... your not gonna get fired or warned at argos unless management work in ikea.. if you did get fired from argos for doing **** in ikea that would be classed as "An Unfair dismissle"

See how I define matterzzz skilzzz

[dogboy123]

I appologised for what happened and that I got banned. However I didn't realise that habbo would ban me for such a stupid thing.

We know that these days mods can go abit overboard, but I still appologise for what I did

[The Professor]

Fully agree with OP, its the same as if news reporters were posting swear words on the homepage. They would be heavily disciplined if not fired on the spot, should be no different with this situation. Yes MODs can be a bit harsh but you shouldn't be anywhere near that line anyway.

All bans have been in offical habbox rooms.

So going on about caming in a teen game is acceptable ?

no, you broke the rules, your were banned, how do you fulfil your role as hxhd manager in desk now, you cant becuase ur account was banned.

The impression this is giving out of habbox too is stupid, walking into the hxhd and see nameBAN every 5 seconds isnt good, if i was new and saw that i wud think its a room full of rulebreakers and leave incase they tried to get me to break rules.

Yeah thats how I understood it when I was staff. A year or so ago hardly any staff were banned on habbo and if they were they did get fired? Now there are countless staff getting banned, and in HxHD too which sets a terrible example. What's worse is they make accounts like nameBAN which highlights further their ill behaviour.

[Inseriousity.]

I think it should be based on the frequency. If someone is getting constantly banned, they're a liability and should just get removed. I've seen a couple of [insertoldhabboname]BANBANBAN accounts and you just think what the heck?!!!

Also, depends on the job. A graphics staff member being banned isn't as bad as a DJ/HxHD staff member getting banned imo.

:o which agm has been naughty?!! :P

Roxy and ben got banned for talking about camming to eachother, which is against the rules and they are very strict on this atm becuase of pervs ect.

I was fired last year when i got banned, like leah said, habbox is going DOWNHILL and very QUICKLY atm and this is one of the reasons, ur making habbox seem like a douchbag site.

[leah]

Roxy's usually professional though and so is ben for that. I mean jokes are fair enough but when its staff getting banned repetitively you'd think action would be taken.

[dogboy123]

Roxy and ben got banned for talking about camming to eachother, which is against the rules and they are very strict on this atm becuase of pervs ect.



I didnt think saying, yay i got a cam would have meant I would get banned :S

[Sly]

outragous behaviour

[Hecktix]

I believe getting banned for talking about camming to eachother (appropriately) is OTT and Habbox shouldn't get involved.

But if people start getting banned for shouting inappropriate sites, inappropriate behaviour, racism etc, then Habbox should get involved.

Like I said, if someone got banned when I was HxHD manager there was a full investigation.

[leah]

I didnt think saying, yay i got a cam would have meant I would get banned :S

exactly, bans like this are silly and people shouldn't be punished. Plus this is the first time roxy and ben have been banned. However, there are other staff who are more rude and get banned more frequently.

[Immenseman]

I actually agree with you 100% Joe. There is a fine line between getting banned on Habbo here and there and acting like some staff do on the hotel, especially within rooms that represent Habbox. When I was a manager, I fired people for how they behaved on Habbo in Habbox rooms because they have a duty to represent Habbox and by swearing and being an e-rebel isn't the way to go. Obviously, if you get banned here and there, that's to be expected but constantly acting like idiots and thinking it's hilarious when you get banned is a different story altogether.

[AgnesIO]

Staff should behave in and around habbo, especially in habbo rooms. It should be how it used to be - if you swear twice in 10 mins or so you are out.

[Sly]

i look up to staff n they r settina bad example :(

[scottish]

Staff being fired for being banned is just stupid, if you say 4 lines in a row habbo will give you a two hour ban for "disruption"

in 04/05/06 bans were almost always fair now their just randomly given out so firing someone based upon a habbo ban is just completely ******ed.

Also if the members are banned in non-habbox rooms it doesn't matter as its nothing to do with habbox.

[Smits]

FIRE ANYONE WHO GETS BANNED>

[Immenseman]

He's not saying that. He's saying staff who are constantly misbehaving within Habbox associated rooms, which does happen should be dismissed or at least warned. They have a duty to represent Habbox whilst inside them and they're failing, miserably.

[scottish]

there representing habbox on habbo yet over 15 staff i can count have been banned this week on habbo for acting inaproriatly, including 1 AGM, 1 Manager who were banned in the HxHD

list the 15 pls.

i remember 3 members, ambzz. dogboy and roxy, both roxy and dogboys bans were unfair and ambz's ban wasn't in HxHD so..

[Titch]

list the 15 pls.

i remember 3 members, ambzz. dogboy and roxy, both roxy and dogboys bans were unfair and ambz's ban wasn't in HxHD so..

I am not going to sit here and pick them out becuase its unfair, they know who they are,and if there managers want to knwo they can always pm me.

[scottish]

No where near 15 staff have been banned, if you don't wish to say their names publicly tell me on msn or pm me otherwise i'll just assume this as another lie.

[Sly]

ppl in authority shud behave themselves omg

[luce]

Yeah when i first joined if i got banned on habbo i would have been fired for sure but now it's like anything goes in some cases. Although habbo ban people for stupid things now

[Dinosaurawrr]

when i was staff and i got banned off TruthfulLove i got a ban for standing in my habbo room making it look christmassy
i was there alone and yet got a 24 hour ban?
staff ARE supposed to be setting a example and should get punished for there behaviour if they show everyone there allowed to do what they like and get banned on habbo then there setting a bad example about habbox and therefore its up to the managment wether they get punished.
for example having a laugh not upsetting anyone thats fine
abusing somebody not so fine.
if they get banned for doing nothing wrong and get punished by habbox too thats a bit unfair but how to managment know that they didnt do something wrong or did? they dont x

[Calvin]

Well, I doubt they would have been in Habbox rooms or someone would screenshot it and send to the manager. If they wern't then it's nothing to do with Habbox.

[Nixt]

If evidence can be presented that a member of staff was banned for a valid reason and their behaviour was grossly inappropriate (certainly not for minor bans, or bans that most people consider pointless) I do agree that action should be taken. I have noticed myself that members of HxHD staff in particular have banned names, and I have seen some outrageous behaviour in there. Not an example that should be set, and I agree that it should be cracked down on.

[dogboy123]

We have now come up with a solution to deal with banned HxHD staff. Thanks for bringing it to our attention :)

[GommeInc]

It's most certainly Habbo at fault, not the Habbox Staff. Habbo is just a shambles lately :P

[Nixt]

We have now come up with a solution to deal with banned HxHD staff. Thanks for bringing it to our attention :)

Are members not able to be informed of this solution? Not pressing you, if it's secret or whatever that's fine - I just find in my experience, it's best to keep the members up to date on the things you have done as this reassures them something will be done :).

[scottish]

i'm sure what happens in ^

If its not habbox room then they are warned and told not to do it again (Verbal warning not departmental)

then if its in a habbox room its taken more serious so im assuming departmental warning or in severe cases fired


I think the first bit is stupid, imho as habbox is voltuneers what they do outside habbox rooms should be up to them, then when in official habbox rooms, hxl parties etc they shold be behaving.

[Mr-Trainor]

Personally, I think that if it was a FAIR ban given out on Habbo, then it can be dealt with by the staff members manager(s). If it wasn't a fair ban in the first place, then I don't think anything needs to be done really.

[dogboy123]

If HxHD staff are banned for something in a non Habbox room for something serious they are just told to be careful.
If HxHD staff are banned for something in a Habbox room for something serious which they did or for a long amount of time they are fired.
If HxHD staff are banned for something in a Habbox room for a short amount of time for something small e.g. saying "I HAVE A CAM" then they are told not to do it again and get a minor warning.

[Richie]

I agree with scott for once.. its none of habbox's business what staff do in non-official rooms..

[dogboy123]

at least you've done something about it, you always take what's said and try to act on it, well done! :)

It would be nice for other managers to follow in his footsteps cause it's not just HxHD staff that do it. I'm not mentioning names but one DJ had [INSERT NAME]BANBANBANx3 as their habbo name ;l

[scottish]

I agree with scott for once.. its none of habbox's business what staff do in non-official rooms..

init, as voltuneers their whole habbo experience shouldn't involve habbox, if i was hxhd staff and went into say trade city it's nothing to do with habbox what i do in there or any other room out of habbox's chain or rooms tbh

I agree with that, but in hxhd, hx events, the rvr desk and dj parties staff should set an example.

would you like a slap hun? :eusa_ange

[Mr-Trainor]

I agree with scott for once.. its none of habbox's business what staff do in non-official rooms..

I agree. If anyone does anything 'bad' in a non-official room, then the Habbo mods can deal with it.

[scottish]

I agree with that, but in hxhd, hx events, the rvr desk and dj parties staff should set an example.


would you like a slap hun? :eusa_ange

yeh i agree with that but outside of the official habbox rooms and parties they should be free to do what they want without the involvement of habbox as honestly habbox has absolutely nothing to do with them outside of said rooms, so giving someone a warning for their behaviour which has nothing to do with habbox is far from motivating.

[hah]

LOL, at the "warning one" ben put his ban reason in that :P

[dogboy123]

no idea what you're on about graham :eusa_whis

and it was me, matt roxy and david that came up with these, not just me

[Immenseman]

yeah, they're good rules you've set out ben, glad you've acted quickly and actually doing something :)

[Titch]

no idea what you're on about graham :eusa_whis

and it was me, matt roxy and david that came up with these, not just me

Any news on the other rule we spoke about on msn?

[Sammeth.]

In official Habbox rooms we do act on this a lot. I cant remember the amount of times I had to warn someone about their behaviour in official rooms. However its always dependent on the situation I guess and not everything warrants severe action to be taken. As Garion has said if there is clear evidence of misbehaviour we always do act upon it.

[Immenseman]

Yeah, I guess it's just not being reported because generally speaking it's minor staff who are constantly doing it, especially in HxHD, like others have said.

[dogboy123]

Any news on the other rule we spoke about on msn?

I wanted to imply it, but I think stopping the staff doing their job is wrong, they already get warned which we think is enough

[hah]

ban them from hxhd if they are bad ;l

normal users get banned from the room but not Habbo itself so they must be behaving worse ;l

[Immenseman]

I remember when I was HxHD staff and I used to get banned here and there I didn't tell anyone lol in case I got told off (a)!

[Titch]

See personally i think (however ben doesnt agree) if there main account is banned for watever reason they should not be aloud behind the desk on clones ect, becuase you dont know who they r, cus there not on staff list and doesnt look good.

Its there own fualt for getting banned so therfor there own fualt if they can do they job.

[Immenseman]

I agree with that, Joe. By all means go in the desk and still help on your banned account, shouldn't be behind the desk imo :)

[scottish]

When people come in for help i HIGHLY DOUBT they look at every sticky to see who each staff member is to then ask them questions, they just ask for it, so whether or not their on sticky doesn't matter

also hxhd stickies are often not updated alot such as ban ones etc i think luccy. is still on staff sticky when she resigned so......

[dogboy123]

I agree with that, Joe. By all means go in the desk and still help on your banned account, shouldn't be behind the desk imo :)

But we'd rather that they go behind the desk, than they dont go behind someone comes for help sees nobody behind then leaves

[Immenseman]

Then what is the point on them having their habbo and forum names the same? What's the point of the staff stickies?

[Titch]

Then what is the point on them having their habbo and forum names the same? What's the point of the staff stickies?

well said, its like me turning up to work and saying my uniform got taken away by police, can i still work? i wud get told to do 1 and go home.

[Blob]

well said, its like me turning up to work and saying my uniform got taken away by police, can i still work?

Yeah I agree, it should just be a warning.

[Immenseman]

It doesn't set a good example either, seeing behind the desk HotelUserBAN or whatever. It's like police getting arrested, pretty sure they wouldn't keep their job :lol:

[Titch]

Yeah I agree, it should just be a warning.

what lol?

[scottish]

well said, its like me turning up to work and saying my uniform got taken away by police, can i still work? i wud get told to do 1 and go home.

is that the same job you quit habbo to do yet your on habbo every day still?


HxHD isnt your job irl, hxhd dont pay you to do it lol..... you don't get banned from real life then go into your workplace.... habbo isn't real life.......

Stickies are there to help people know who is and isn't staff same with forum name, hence the HxHD forum bit.. when people come in in need of help they sure as hell don't check the stickies they check if any staff are active behind the bar then ask a question, if 20 people are sitting about the room and no-one in the ban the chances are they'll move onto another help desk.

[dogboy123]

Well at the end of the day, staff are there to help. If you're not letting them behind the desk just to punish them then thats completely wrong

[Blob]

what lol?

They should just get a warning, not have their rights to be behind the desk removed.

[dogboy123]

They should just get a warning, not have their rights to be behind the desk removed.

titch is saying the opposite :P But yeah, everything Scott said I agree with

[Blob]

titch is saying the opposite :P But yeah, everything Scott said I agree with

Oh lol.

Sorry <3

But yeah, it should only be a warning, but possibly your right to be behind the desk removed if you are rude to someone when you are behind the desk?

[Seatherny]

If they get banned, I would fire them. If they arent setting a good example, they shouldn't be staff. If Habbo banned them for something, it must be serious. Give them 7-14 days to get it reversed. If they don't get it reversed, fired.

[Titch]

No i just believe if your on another account becuase yours is banned you shouldnt be behind the desk, its unproffesional.

and edit: sav, well said.

HxHD staff are there to help others :S Its a "help desk". If members of the help desk get banned, and sit behind the desk with {name}BAN, no ones going to take them seriously.

everyone knows habbo bans for pointless reasons, i'm pretty sure a previous hxhd staff member advertised habboxlive.com and got perm banned? thats hardly fair in firing a person over a ban like that...... different in 04-07 as bans like 99% of the time were fair and not just random, not most of them are unfair.

How is it unprofessional, a new person who has no idea who anyone on the hotel is isn't going to come into the room see someone (for example ambzz. now on her account booket) and say "OH YOU MUST BE AMBZZ. YOU'RE BANNED nvm i dont need help from you !!! anyone else help me?" they don't care who the hell it is aslong as they supply them with the help they need, whether the person has been banned 80 times or 1 the persons not going to know.

And this is hardly a concern tbh, 3 people in the past few weeks have been banned, not as if theres LOADS of them.



@Saurav - obviously they're not using {name}BAN accounts.

Hence give them time to appeal it. If the ban was unfair, habbo will unban the person. Anyone who says they reply slow are blatant liars. Everytime I have contacted Habbo over the last year, I have had a reply within 3 days. Most of the time its been within 24 hours.

since when have habbo appealed to bans that fast? never.

Majority of people wouldn't dare phone habbo so the appeal process would take up to a few months for habbo to finall sort it. Ask Supernic. i'm sure it was habboxlive.com she advertised and got permed, first appeal they said she had to contact at a later date as it was just after the ban then it took about a month or two to finally get unbanned... so yes it DOES take that long.

[Sammeth.]

Woah woah woah, this thread is moving too fast for me, but the rule has always been that community department staff have to have their forum name as their habbo name and that they CAN'T go behind the bar in HxHD until their forum name matches their habbo name and thats been announced. HxHD Staff on clone accounts to avoid their ban shouldn't be behind the bar until their forum name matches. Thats always been the rule, and Im sure Roxy remembers when she was forced to stay out until her name was changed many moon ago. Sorry to be calling you out publicly Ben, but its wrong to be letting staff on clone accounts behind the bar. Totally.

Thats kinda stupid for 1 day bans or so but yeh i understand like 30day bans etc

Titch was saying if you get banned, you shouldnt be allowed in staff area AT ALL not just until your hxf name is changed, like completely out until your habbo main account is unbanned which i completely disagree with and evidently do others.

[Seatherny]

no, i just ment that unless ur name matched the one on stickys/forum name, u shudnt be behind desk.

[dogboy123]

Wow, sorry I didnt realise

if its say a 1day ban, then they just stay out of the staff desk and have to deal with the public area

if its longer then their name will be changed to match it for however long their ban is :)

[scottish]

Oh, the way it was worded was like; person gets banned shouldn't be allowed in staff area full stop until ban is up. nvm about hxf name etc.

so yeh nvm all my posts then

[-:Undertaker:-]

Habbox should stay out to an extent of what staff do on the hotel, unless its outright hacking/scamming or something related to Habbox.

[Seatherny]

I believe the Habbox Help Desk Assistant Manager has been banned (or it seems by his Habbo Home page).

Habbox should take strict action. These habbos represent Habbox on the hotel and shouldn't get banned - especially Help Desk users.

Our department doesn't tolerate our staff being banned for legitimate reasons.

Unfortunately for lack of better words the moderation on the UK Hotel is lame, and mods miss a lot. Nicki, Amber, Ben and as of tonight I, were all been banned from HxHD for totally lame reasons when we were staff. In the case of me just today, I was talking to Becca on whisper in HxHD and I told her I loved her, they thought I was some sort of stalker or something and I end up banned for a week. I wasn't talking dirty or doing anything sexual (if I was doing that would raise other concerns about me being staff). I'm being told HxHD is on their frequent room check list (wouldn't surprise me, we as staff report a good 5+ users a day), so we see a lot of bans anyway in HxHD.

Just like we cannot rely on just moderators alone to moderate the help desk, we cannot swear by every ban the moderators make. Although when staff are banned we do look into it. Plus, at the least, the help desk staffmember still has to go through the humiliation of getting a temporary name change on the forum (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=625815), and having everyone know that they're banned:P

If HxHD staff are banned for something in a non Habbox room for something serious they are just told to be careful.
If HxHD staff are banned for something in a Habbox room for something serious which they did or for a long amount of time they are fired.
If HxHD staff are banned for something in a Habbox room for a short amount of time for something small e.g. saying "I HAVE A CAM" then they are told not to do it again and get a minor warning.


That looks good, although I'd amend the 1st to state that repeat/regular bans should result in being fired no matter where they are as it will affect their work ability and is hardly making a good name for Habbox. With that addition I'd suggest it be taken up by all departments that come under "community" here, as it's not just HxHD staff who are prone to being banned I'm sure.


HxHD isnt your job irl, hxhd dont pay you to do it lol..... you don't get banned from real life then go into your workplace.... habbo isn't real life.......

I had no idea...
On a serious note though, volunteer workers still have to abide by rules wherever they are and whatever they do.


Well at the end of the day, staff are there to help. If you're not letting them behind the desk just to punish them then thats completely wrong

I know this has been cleared up now but that post suggests that anyone turning up "to help" is allowed behind the bar :P

If they're wanting to go in with a temporary account would they not need everyone to know anyway?

Oh of course everyone would need to know, I'm just saying it's embarrassing for people to know:)

I'm sure the staff should be allowed to be human like

Indeed and it seems they said something that was misinterpreted. I am sure they will be very careful how they choose their words in future. Both are great staff and I am sure Sam as GM will keep an eye as he is vastly experienced in the community area and it's his area of responsibilty. Mistakes happen and as long as people learn by them surely that's all that counts in my view.
