Department Managers

[Sharon]

Making a load of threads today ;)

ANYWAY, I think Department managers should be allowed in the HxHD Desk bit.
So if someone had a question Example: When are Competitions Staff applications open? Mike should be around the desk with an answer?

Shazzy.

I personally don't think this is neccesary. For starters the Managers do need to go in the desk more, but I think they can go outside of it. But we'll see what others say :), I may just be thinking that it is something which does not need doing.

[luce]

yeah i don't see why they should have to go in they are busy and the staff in the desk normally work in another department anyway :)!

I should be allowed access to the dj panel, also mod powers everywere on the forum, oh also be able to change rares. Department managers are for their department and being behind the desk in HxHD isn't part of it. Not a good idea in my opinion. Cause then we might aswell let department managers be able to do any job they want.

You don't see Minkiest helping out Garion run his department and I think letting managers into the staff area in the help desk would be kind of the same thing. There is no need for it and for a lot of questions, if the desk staff are good enough should be able to direct people to pages on Habbox.com or Habboxforum.com to give people answers they are looking for i.e. Job Opening's page.

[hah]

thats like saying garion should post rare values.... no

if this is the case why do agms have to go in :S

shrug

[Alex3213]

Because AGMs do manage a great deal of the site, whereas a Dept. Manager only brings across one department whereas the AGMs (Idk about MattGarner I think he just looks over it all) cover about 3 or 4 departments.

They can help out other departments so that's why they come behind the desk sometimes. :)

[hah]

i dont see why the site agm should need to go in lol?

or staff manager :S

[dogboy123]

or staff manager :S

They don't need to, they want to. They're higher management so theres no problem.

[Alex3213]

In fairness I agree with Graham, Roxy is the only one who should go in the area, and possibly Matt.

[Nixt]

thats like saying garion should post rare values.... no

Why not :@!

In all fairness I see absolutely no need for this, if someone was querying a forum thing for example I could just answer it in the normal area, and I have done in the past.

or staff manager :S

It's not like the staff manager is the head honcho of all the HxHD staff or anything:P

[Sammeth.]

To be fair I rarely go behind the desk myself, and I think some AGMs do just to dance with other staff members :P But yeah this is hardly a pressing issue, if management choose to go in the desk and get asked a question they can answer it from where they are. Their position within the desk is not exactly integral.

as someone said before, you wouldnt see him posting rare values.

i'm just playing devil's advocate here

[Charlottay!]

isnt that the point of the ask the staff forum? so staff dont have to be in hxhd all the time invading in on another department. they can just direct them to that thread and ask the relevant people

Erm.. HxHD is Habbox's public room and Dept Managers are encouraged to show their faces. I'd hardly call it invading another department. If we restricted it so only HxHD staff could go into HxHD the desk would be a lot quiter, seems as most desk regulars are staff from other domains.

Those asking about why AGMs should be allowed in, because they have a fundamental role in charge of Habbox and need to be publicly recognised figures.

[Ajthedragon]

I like the idea, I also think Rare Values staff should be allowed in the desk, and get rid of the hideous RVD.

[Seatherny]

Department managers can still answer questions from outside the desk bit...
