As you all know there was a thing a few weeks ago about Sulake letting off even more of their staff (ediootti etc..). It seems today puhekupla has discovered a bunch of other staff who have also been fired, check out this list:
Juhah - Ex Staff {Apr 2011 - Dec 2012}
Kiukku - Ex Staff {Mar 2007 - Dec 2012}
L-Mike - Ex Staff {Jan 2012 - Dec 2012}
Poutapaiva - Ex Staff {Oct 2008 - Dec 2012}
Teemup - Ex Staff {Dec 2004 - Dec 2012}
Dionysus/The.4th.habbo/Kitano - Ex Staff {Oct 2001 - Dec 2012}

No! Not Kitano omg!!!
Nice move, Paul :l
Fired? Are you sure they didn't just leave because of what Paul has done to sulake? I'm quite sure those long-standing staff members wouldn't have just been gotten rid of, they probably all wanted to leave.

I'm probably just being dumb but why did all this happen? Cost-cuts or what?

Looks like the start of a sinking ship to me. It's upsetting to see a game that played such a big part in my childhood has gone - so many good memories from Habbo. I stopped playing properly around 2009/2010 as the community went down the pan. You can go on now and can't talk to anyone in any rooms... there is nothing interesting going on anymore.

I guess that's the realisation of the 2/3 job cuts they spoke about. Firing/getting rid of some of the staff members that matter. Call me dumb but surely if a Community Manager is coming back why on Earth did they fire Kitano? Found someone cheaper?

Doesn't prove anything. They could of left out of protest because of 2/3s of the workforce being let off, and rightly so seeing as the problem is with Idiot LaStupid at the head of the company. When the metaphorical poop hit the fan it was Paul that should of faced the axe, not the hard working employees and the very customers he offended - some of which were strong characters in the business and the community.
Habbo should just close - it's an embarrassment and soon people will be glad to see it gone. Real Habbo died years ago. This piece of steaming dog faeces isn't Habbo - it's something Paul forced out and made a total mess with.

As was pointed out in another thread, there is no way that Habbo is closing. It is Sulake's #1 product and they're still making a profit off it. Therefore they will keep doing their thing and we will disagree with them but keep playing anyway as there aren't too many online alternatives that are as sophisticated as Habbo is. Besides we have friends that still play habbo and we're a community of our own basically and as long as our friends are still playing, so will we. Just a few thoughts. Obviously Paul needs to have a reality check and see that Habbo should not be just about the money as it should be a community first and a business second, but in the real world that is not the case and it never will be. As far as people being fired goes, the muting scandal cost them a ton, they lost members and there were other financial drawbacks, now looking at the economical side of things, when a business is losing money they have to reduce the staff. Don't get me wrong I think that it's absolutely wrong for them to fire such well known and dedicated members of the Habbo society and they should really take a closer look at their staff list, but with the firings there are also new staff hired and new who knows, maybe they will try and balance out the crap that Habbo has become.
PS. Do not quote me on any of the stuff i've said. It is purely my opinion and the way i understand these things.

You just want Habbox to go as well don't you? :P
That's a shame he's gone, but I bet it wasn't a firing (sounds like they've done something wrong!), more of a reduction in the workforce to save money.
Such a shame, Habbo won't last much longer the way it's going!

Wow Dionysus? things must be very bad. But then there's always the possibility that he's taken voluntary redundancy.

I'm pretty sure there is no staff from before merge working at sulake now. They've seemed to fire every staff member that knew what habbo is really about, if there is no staff members from old habbo how can we expect habbo to go back to the old times?

Kitano, 11 years wow. Dedication and then gets fired, such a shame.

FREAKIN 2001 OHMYGOD. No hope for habbo now, honestly. Will miss the awesome sopabox sessions Mark used to host

There's one from before the merge and that's Puffin isn't it, didn't she work for the Canadian Hotel? She has done a lot for both Paul and Habbo in 2012 like the Habbo Council. Is it Puffin or Fozzie lol. I only remember as after the merge the UK and US managers weren't there.

There are a lot of staff from before the merge, but they are mainly global staff.

Problem with Habbo Hotel now is that the people who are running the show don't actually know what we want. like we use to have surveys every so often and they'd be questions for new features etc. what we'd like to see on habbo in the future. the community games were an actual community rather then just something youd go off and do on your own, you could feel the season all around you. now its just another reason sulake have money thrown at them by the users of the hotel, nothing really to celebrate the season. its not unique anymore, meaning habbo. its too.. i dunno. big for its boots?

KITANO! :(
that's bull.... they should fire paul and bring back good habbo plz
Dionysus/The.4th.habbo/Kitano? same person? i didnt know he was Kitano ;s
Very shocked they would get rid of him tbh, hes one of the oldest members of staff remember him on .co.uk then he left to work at HQ.
And yeah Paul has damaged the company, im suprised they havent asked to leave ;s
I remember when Dionysus used to programme the bots in public rooms lol so everyone could see.

Oh I thought the OP wrote them like that to say they'd all left but been there same amount of time. I didn't know that either.
I agree with you, if that was me, I'd leave as soon as it wasn't about the community anymore, it's more for the money and yes it's a company but to gain the money you need users.

Why does everyone blame Paul? You guys make it sound like he is in charge of every single decision ever within the company.
Firing Dionysus is a big mistake, he was dedicated and the only Habbo whom really knows anything about the game.
Add to useless bans people are getting at the moment and I can't see Habbo getting any better.

same difference. i spoke to him in november and he said he did not want to leave but he was not sure whether or not he would have to. i am sad he has gone, he was just nice to chat to.

I wanted Kitano to stay for sure, and Katharina to go.
