Habbox can be a bit unfair.

[Whale]

Not only me, but many others were attending the vault event. I was in the queue line, when I disconnected! I come back to find out the entrance is closed?

Now, I wasn't one of the ragers, I mean, its just a game. But there some folk in there.. Just raging their heads off!

I can agree, its a bit unfair, but its fair at the same time..

Its unfair to the people with laggy radio, or the people who disconnected, and sometimes its unfair for someone that is a just a few minutes late.

But yet, its fair, in an aspect. Everyone had an opportunity to participate and possibly win something! I guess theres just some unfortunate people out there.

what are you trying to point out here then while saying it's fair and unfair at the same time?

Exactly. Its fair to some, the fortunate ones. But at the same time, its unfair for other people.

[Inseriousity.]

I am actually aware that the entrance was closed and will be looking into why. Even if people are in the queue and don't get a chance to play, they should be given the chance to watch so I agree that that isn't very fair. As for people disconnecting, that isn't really the host's fault. In fact, my computer just crashed in the SNQ. It's annoying but it's not unfair to say 'sorry you have to rejoin the queue'

I don't think its unfair that they came late to the vault or got disconnected tbh.. We try and make the vault as fair as possible and if you had any idea how hard it is to DJ, run the vault and access prizes then you would have some understanding of the real difficulty with disconnecters/late arriver's.

We can't please everybody at everytime, and what @RemelKiid (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=60296);, @BAMitsKristyy (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=80424); and @Glitzen (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=3079); do is amazing stuff. the vault is closed at a certain time due to the amount of people in the room btw

We cleared gave 15 minutes warning on air before closing the entrance to The Vault. The Vault entrance was closed to avoid new people entering The Vault with only 15 minutes to go which would have resulted in them queueing up and not getting a change to play.

Rejoining the queue, I'm completely fine with. You're right, not the host's fault for Disconnection. But for someone to come back and find the gates closed? That's the unfair part.

[Grig]

I see your point. However, you disconnecting isn't our fault at all, so no complaints there. However, saying that, there needs to be a smoother way in getting in, people should be allowed in to watch even if not to play.

So not as big of an issue, but there are still a few faults here and there that I'm sure can be flattened out by the next time.

There are people in events up until they close. It is made clear to them that this is the last event and some of them choose to stay. The entrance should have stayed open and if people wanted to watch then they would've been given that option. :)

Sorry, I still see it as Unfair. I mean, I understand its only a game, I'm not gonna get mad or anything, but, to some people, they will take it wayy to far. The ragers in the lobby for example.

whale can you stop contradicting yrself omg.

i think the vault is pretty fair at the moment, there are a few things that could be tweaked for example the radio lag problem. maybe you could have a couple of the code words in-room or something so everyone gets the clues at the same time rather than people having a slight advantage, but i don't think it's majorly flawed in any way.

perhaps instead of closing the entrance you could change the wired so when people enter they see "this weeks vault has ended but feel free to spectate" then you can allow people to make their own choices and leaves no room for argument.

Who is contradicting themselves? I'm not. I agree with your statement, But before you go off accusing others or judging, think about what your saying first.

i can give you at least 5 examples within this thread where you have contradicted yrself.... are you for real?

[AlexJRiley]

I got into the keyword box to play, disconnected but i'm not having a hissy fit. Get over it.

I think that's a bit unnecessary? He's not having a hissy fit is he?

[Empired]

I think Bethie's idea of letting people in to watch but not play the actual game from a certain time onwards is a good idea. I can see there's the crowded room problem but the more the merrier, I say..

[Mollie]

Habbox can't really be responsible for peoples lagg or disconnections.

Everyone's going to have a slight bit of lagg on the radio, but that can't be helped. It's just unfortunate.

Regarding the disconnections, maybe they should look into a better connection or closing down programmes or something idk.

It's pathetic that people are raging about it, because there's nothing that this fansite or habbo can do about it.

[Vause]

I think if you knew what hard work and effort goes into the Vault you'd see it from a different side. We had literally days of planning and trail runs for this just to make sure it was perfect. I'm sorry you didn't get a chance, and hopefully this won't stop you attending in future.

[jasey]

'The Vault' is a totally generous thing that is done by the Habbox Staff that takes a lot of work. People are putting their free time and money in to making this happen and they are clearly interested in making it as fair as possible. It is a great alternative to playing something like 'FALLING FURNI WIN 8 RARES'. Be appreciative that it even exists.

[Kasabian]

I LIKE TURTLES.

I didn't get into the event either.

awkward.

yeah me too how unfair

[Samantha]

I went as Pigperson; told me he won 20c so I went to the entrance and found it was locked, I wanted to watch as Inseriousity.; mentioned which I think would be good.

With the volume of people in the room why not have someone manning a teleport in the entrance that will only allow people in when it's not full so even they get chance to play or at least watch. Also when people play in the vault do they have to go in the entrance again or do they just go to the back of the queue? If they just go to the back of the queue in the room then I feel that's an unfair bit as many more could be wanting to play. Not saying the vault isn't a good idea or anything and not saying that I'm not appreciative.
