Was kind of getting used to the new ones, but voted for number 6, purely because I liked the shape and they're not so bright I guess so don't stick out as much and I had just gotten used to them really. The other designs are fab though so well done to everyone who made them! :) Just personally for me the old ones weren't quite stale enough for a change yet. :P

I think David's idea is really nice, and have voted for that. It's like the new ones we had but without so much colour which I think is great :D. I like Laura's circle idea, but because most people tend to have only 1 userbars. I think it could look a little out of place, and without text it might be confusing as to what's what :(. But they're all nice though :)!

Yeah I think you would because it automatically creates a line after each userbar, but how to get the userbars in a line and then create a new line - would that be complicated? I don't have vBulletin so I wouldn't know :P. It probably has been done before though.

if i remember correctly, being in a specific department usergroup as well as having vip/donator messes up perms, so everyone pretty much gets shoved in "habbox staff" and gets access masks to the correct forum

I looked around and people with just Habbox Staff Green usernames don't have a unique userbar, just 'Habbox Staff'. So each department doesn't get it's own userbar. Chris lies.

All staff usergroups have their own userbar. The reason you aren't seeing this is because the users you looked at have the Habbox Staff usergroup as their display group. If their department group was their display group then you would see that department userbar.

I've never seen a userbar for a department (other than forum) ever. Seems a waste that if they've been made, they're not on display.
And I'm loling that people are actually taking the -repping seriously, the names aren't even displayed in the poll?

Thing is though, if you change your vote to Laura's just because they have unique ones for each usergroup, so does option 6. But the way the forum is (for some reason) we wouldn't see the unique ones on either option.
Would have been nice to have been told that there were unique options available for Laura's and the original.

It can easily be done in term of making them less Rare - Just have to get Myke to change the way he does permissions. Although it would mean that only one specific rank would be shown due to the size of the images.

Indeed, but I doubt Laura's will win based on the information gave in the original post in the thread. There's a lot of variables in this poll, but ah well, not much can be done I guess. I wouldn't mind Laura's design if they managed to work out how the forum shows userbars and as long as they give you the department as you hover over them.

Indeed, but I doubt Laura's will win based on the information gave in the original post in the thread. There's a lot of variables in this poll, but ah well, not much can be done I guess. I wouldn't mind Laura's design if they managed to work out how the forum shows userbars and as long as they give you the department as you hover over them.

Unless Laura's design won? They're small enough?
I guess not, depending how many roles that person is in. But you have to remember the outcome of the poll doesn't necessary mean Laura's will win.

Laura's won't win. From the initial post you just think 'Too small and doesn't give you any information', but that's of course assuming you had only one per person. I'm certain it's between 1 and 6 going through the responses on this thread.
Of course, if 1 wins, we'll need another thread deciding which one of the three options to choose from...

If I were to choose based on design quality, I'd choose 3, 5 or 6
3 looks nice, but too "icey"
5 looks awesome but there's something that doesn't fit... maybe is the poor contrast between background and text.
6 looks so clean and minimal but I feel like this design can't fit the current forum layout.
The rest are kinda cheap tbh
But even saying so, I preferr number 6 ^.^
Out of topic question ¿How can I suggest some userbars made by me?

Thats it you got me. General management are in on it too, Matt has access to Jin and Sierk so used their accounts to vote too.
Whichever option wins will be fair and the results wont be tampered with. :P Results are going to be checked though just incase anyone decided to make accounts to fix the vote.

THE RESULTS ARE IN! *Dramatic music*
Design 1 ~ Con 20
Design 2 ~ mrwoooooooo 4
Design 3 ~ David 35
Design 4 ~ Laura 11
Design 5 ~ New 10
Design 6 ~ Old 35
So as you can see from the results its a tie between Dave's design and the old design. In the event of a tie we would normally do another poll or just go with the old option, however it seems some people decided to cheat and fix the vote with another account. For this reason we will be going with the new design.
Now I'm going to shut myself in my panic room and wait for the angry mobs to pass.

I don't think you quite understand, it's only a tie because someone cheated by using another account they own. So their vote is invalid and therefore that makes David's userbar win the poll.

A lot of the time they get contacted it about and then they have a decision of which account they would like to "keep" pretty much. Although circumstances could also make it into an instant ban - Depending on the scenario.

Well, in this scenario, to have another account created to alter a vote in a poll, does that not count as an instant ban? I mean, a regular user wouldn't really want to move to a new account they created just for the sake of a poll, would they?

24-01-2013, 12:58 AM
To be fair, the whole thing was a bit messed up from the start; like Will and Kardan have said, full information wasn't given about the different options, bullying/encouraging illegitimate votes was positively encouraged, there was bias (yeah I agree I played my part in that, seeing them on a skin like me and Dave showed is going to sway more votes) etc.
When I was first designing mine I asked Matt and Chris if they were viable and they said yeah, a lot of people who have posted in this thread have said they didn't vote mine because they wouldn't be possible to put on the forum (not that I'm saying I would have won otherwise, not at all).
As for the cheater, that's pretty pathetic, although it's annoying me I can't figure out who it is.
Congrats Dave.
