Unexpected departure from Mike, you'll truly be missed at Habbox! Bemused by Jade getting the position, I would have thought Samanfa or Rosy personally lol. Nevertheless I'm sure you'll do a great job, best of luck!

A credit to the team who perhaps isn't a people-pleaser but definitely knows what's right most of the time. A dedicated guy with some good ideas and should be sorely missed. A great team player, shame to see this happen :(

Mike, thank you so much for all your hard work, you've done so much for Habbox over your reign here. I've known you for like three years and you're such a great guy. It was fantastic to meet you in Cardiff and I hope we meet sometime again soon.

Just want to say that it is not because of what happened yesterday but rather a feeling I've had for a while that yesterday's events reminded me of. I have felt for a while now that Matt has only tolerated my presence as AGM rather than as someone he can trust and rely on. I'm stubborn and it just made me more determined to stay and prove him wrong. My stubbornness, however, would not ultimately be in the best interest of Habbox if the general management team aren't a cohesive team. Yesterday's events reminded me of that feeling and I decided it was in Habbox's best interests to bow out rather than fight. I stayed because I wanted to leave behind a legacy. I failed on that front so instead I remember the smaller moments that are largely unnoticed in the bigger picture but can make a difference. Instead, I will remember nurturing managers to constantly improve themselves and their departments, I will remember trying to get them out of their comfort zones, I will remember trying to get them to use their imagination, I'll remember interrogating managers on their decisions to ensure they've looked at it from every angle. The good times and the bad, I've enjoyed every minute of it.

I think HxSS proves there is still a lot of spirit at Habbox and perhaps if that spirit was channelled into more constructive pursuits rather than the bickering and moaning then Habbox will succeed because it does have the best community when it's firing on all cylinders.

Jade, on the other hand, has a close relationship with Matt (and that's needed) but is also not afraid to stand up for what she believes is right, she is creative, organised and not afraid of shaking things up where needed. She isn't perfect and she'll make mistakes but give her a chance.

I know people have been (and will continue) posting multiple opinions on me becoming AGM. I for one was surprised I was even chosen. I'd like to make it clear that I will do everything I can in this position and I completely understand that you feel there are other people more worthy of this position. It came as a complete shock to see Mike resign as I know he has been here for a long time and done so much for Habbox, but he must have had his reasons. I just hope that I can do him and the rest of Habbox proud, because I genuinely do care about this fan site and I always will do.

I should note I'm still trying to grasp everything I'm supposed to be doing now, but I'm trying my best to pick them up as quick as I can. The sooner I do that, the sooner I can put my ideas into place! Obviously for the time being I will be sorting out HabboxLive matters as well in order for a clear transition to take place for the management position but hopefully the majority of my time can now be spent getting settled into a role which I am very fortunate to have received.

Anyway, thank you to Mike for everything he has done and hopefully we will continue to talk and what not. I doubt very much you will be leaving the community any time soon regardless so that will always be a plus. And obviously thank you for the opportunity and I will do my hardest not to let anyone down.

A close relationship may work, but as soon as that's gone aren't you a little screwed. A few people have been speaking to me on Skype saying that they thought I'd have got it with the experience and dedication I've had throughout my 4 years at Habbox. Jade being promoted has come as a shock as well as your departure. However, rumour has it that I was next in line for the position previously and I haven't had a close relationship with Matt. I'm not bitter about it in the slightest, as it's been said there's a difference between being bitter and surprised. I love seeing a female in the GM team and I wish Jade the best of luck as I do to you.

I didn't hear any rumours about you being next inline? What am I missing out on?

I love how every time a change is made, no-one likes it. No matter what it is. If Samanfa, Rosy or anyone else got promoted most of you would have also moaned. Shouldn't she be allowed a chance, really?

But it seems the track record of complaints says otherwise. Every time something happens, there's people both for and against. I'm one who will wait it out and decide when they actually settle and we can see what they're actually like, as I know others are. Why so quick to judge a someone? Am I missing something?

I don't want to be negative towards jade because this isn't her fault whatsoever but I am surprised she was chosen. I think there are longer-serving and better candidates who deserved it a whole lot more. Some of the things I've heard, and even some things I've seen, actually make me a little bit worried for the future now.

On the other hand, thanks for your work Mike, I know you worked hard and everything, and I know you were dedicated. I never felt like you particularly liked me or anything but I really respected what you did (apart from when you made silly decisions ok). I've always thought you'd do a great job as staff AGM, because Alex said, you're not always a people-pleaser, but you still deserved the role and made some fantastic decisions. You will be missed, and you've definitely left a legacy.

and why didn't you go through the right methods to get this sorted out? Why leave it until now to bring it out the dark? Maybe you did say things, I don't know if you did or not; but if you didn't, then your point is kind of invalid as that would've most likely taken a part in the decision? Again, I could be wrong.

Then let that be your reputation. If you want to complain about something (that's complaining in the complaints forum or via PM etc. I should add) then so be it. It doesn't make you a whiner, it makes you someone who has been affected by something and has needed to make a complaint about it.

or you think jade didnt deserve it like she hasnt been here long compared to other ppl
she i think she deserved it anyway
RIGHT OK
GOOD LUCK WITH IT JADE
U'LL DO FABULOUS i hope
just pls dont go trying to make the habbos on your screen drink ;)<3

I think mainly the reason most/I'm upset about this isn't because I think she'll do a bad job, but that only people who have a reputation for being nice etcetc should get a highup position like that. Take 'bob' for example ;) Bob's continuously rude to people for no reason at all, he will go out of his own way to make you feel bad and he has one of the worst attitudes possible. You won't be seeing Bob getting AGM or even senior in a dept, but then you see Jade getting the position...
That's just my opinion anyway.

Jeez some people tonight have been so immature and acted like ***** who can't grow up... *yeah, they've behaved worse than I ;) *

Good Luck regardless, I think you may surprise people even more than you did when the announcement was made. I just think a quick decision was made, but that's all do not get disheartened by anything though. I will never say whether it's a good or bad decision, as I believe that anything you're given, whether it had been you or even me just go for it, the worst you can do is not do a good job so you step down or resign, isn't it? Not really the end of the world!

I think the hate in this thread is going a bit out of control towards Jade, not only saying this because she's my manager/ex-manager but also because she has done so much for the community (think of how many giveaways and things shes hosted with her own stuff) I'm not saying no other managers have done community based events but she has done a lot. Habboxlive was in a hole, now look at it over 50 or so DJs timetable is fully booked most days and most of the DJs (that I've heard) are decent. Everyone has arguments and hates someone in life lets admit it, bringing that into this thread isn't really necessary at all, perhaps you should make an effort to get back in her good books so she doesn't hate you?

Some people think others are more deserving because they have been here longer and I respect that, however putting-down others because she was CHOSEN is not the way to go about this. Jade will do a great job I'm sure and she is definitely fit for the role; look forward to seeing how Habbox progresses with a new AGM and seeing how the community interaction changes.

Some may not agree with the staff changes and some do but hey just be proud of who you are and that you were chosen for a reason Jade. I know you will do great in this job as you are a very hard worker and always willing to help when you can. You will do wonderful and I have no doubts =].

I know you can do just as much as Mike did for Habbox for all these years it's just you need to give yourself a chance. Every day you will grow and suceed and I know you will make Habbox proud!

As for Mike, I don't really know you much but I know you have done many things for Habbox and I wish you the best of luck in the future. I hope you will come and visit us once in a while Mike? xx Always follow your dreams.

Some of the people in this thread aren't as innocent as they are making out to be. We haven't actually had any complaints of anything that some of you mention. So how do you expect anyone in high enough management to know these things if no one tells you. If you don't think HabboxLive has improved then you must be blind. Jade and others have worked very hard towards that department and has certainly shown dedication. Since a lot of you are unhappy to see Mike you go then maybe you should also respect that his suggestion to replace him was also Jade.

Come back in X amount of months if she's doing a bad job. But don't just all jump to conclusions for the sake of it.

A credit to the team who perhaps isn't a people-pleaser but definitely knows what's right most of the time. A dedicated guy with some good ideas and should be sorely missed. A great team player, shame to see this happen :(

(wow feel privileged mike)

Just to add onto what Alex has said, not only is he all of that, but he's the most honest, caring, trustworthiest, smartest, funniest, wisest, and sweetest guy you'll ever know. He has helped me through a lot throughout the years. If you also need some advice, he's definitely the man to go to as he gives some great advice! Not only was he the best AGM, he IS the best best friend and best boyfriend. :) Thanks so much for everything you have done and for others you have been a big help with Mikey - you have made an amazing impact towards them! :D

Anyways, well done and good luck Jade!

Also like y'all Brits say ~

Hold on, you try running HxL and tell me how one cannot be dedicated to run it for such a period of time. I don't get some of the immature comments in this thread. Obviously some things are skewed to some 'rumours' or bias. Give the girl a chance, then judge.

Well done Jade and best of luck in the role :).

Also shame to see Mike go, he did have Habbox at heart, despite disagreeing with some of his actions. Best of luck.in the future buddy :).

Chug!
16-08-2013, 07:22 AM

Looks like HxL is going to die then. In my opinion, Jade should have stayed at HxL - forever engaging in comments about how much work that is, surely Assistant General Manager is much more work, as-well as HxL stuff. No hate to Jade, I just think it's a bad move.


Nevertheless, good luck. I guess.

Jeesh, you go away for a day and come back to this.

Mike, you were brilliant despite the issues which you state that you faced daily. You were actively improving the Habbox Community and building towards our future. I think the pure success of HxSS so far in terms of numbers of new faces joining shows just that.

I also think Jade is a great choice - unexpected, yes - but a good choice! She certainly isn't afraid to experiment and for anyone to say she hasn't improved HxL dramatically is ridiculous because she has changed it from top to bottom. I'm really looking forward to how she gets on with the role and works with Matt and Myke.

Best of luck Jade! Thanks for all your hard work Mike :)

If it wasn't against the rules I'd have shown you the Skype conversations.

Thinking about it, it may have been nice for someone to have received it with experience in more departments as again I know Rare Values still has no experienced AGM. However, I do believe Jade will be the one who will learn about the other departments, unlike various staff in the role previously.

I never said they should be in it, but the department, before Chippiewill; actually did something it was stuck in 2010 as no one knew how to work it or sort out David's code :P. It doesn't matter whether it's an active department I don't believe as there could be a lot of work behind the scenes, I don't begrudge an active department getting it either though as both could work well regardless of activity. I agree that the manager should be active though.

i feel like i was very negative last night and want to say good luck to jade, i think she has done a hell of a lot in the year she's been here and good on her, but i do think that there are people here who have working as hard for longer who seem to have been completely bypassed in this decision. I'm sure there's a reason they weren't considered, and I hope it's not what it seems to be.

Think everyone should let the girl have a chance in this role before you judge anything that is going to happen. As Tom said, everyone always moans about ANY change at Habbox and it comes across as rather childish.

Sam, IMO you are coming across a bit bitter and defensive on the whole matter because you think you deserved it and continue to post about how much other people said you do. That doesn't really matter, your chance will most likely come. Like I said in staff forums, I could say I deserved it from being with the staff team since 2007 and on habbox since 2006 but I'm not, because it's irrelevant and jade had probably worked hard for this chance.

I know a lot of jobs in habbox come from people being close to management, but aslong as they do a good job, then who really cares.

Give jade a chance :) she's a lovely girl from the chats I've had with her in the short time I've known her from speaking on Skype and I wish her luck.

I'm sorry, but honestly you couldn't be more wrong if you tried. I never expected the role nor will I expect it in the future. I'm also not bitter in the slightest, I am glad we have a female finally in the GM team as it will be nice to see a different stamp on Habbox. Defensive when I'm called a liar, which I think everyone is if someone has a wrong judgement of them.

A close relationship may work, but as soon as that's gone aren't you a little screwed. A few people have been speaking to me on Skype saying that they thought I'd have got it with the experience and dedication I've had throughout my 4 years at Habbox. Jade being promoted has come as a shock as well as your departure. However, rumour has it that I was next in line for the position previously and I haven't had a close relationship with Matt. I'm not bitter about it in the slightest, as it's been said there's a difference between being bitter and surprised. I love seeing a female in the GM team and I wish Jade the best of luck as I do to you.

Not bitter? You come across as if you've just been beaten to £1,000,000 by your enemy.

Isn't she now the community AGM? In which case, RV people shouldn't even be considered as it isn't a community department.

Lmao, this occurred to me - as if they have to make serious decisions.

18-08-2013, 09:08 AM
Okay as i haven't had a chance to comment on peoples posts.

Firstly, i really do love how people are judging Jade because of what they have "heard" about her being ******? (which i must add is NOT true).. people are forming an opinion when for one, some people who have commented haven't really spoken to Jade or not even giving her a chance at her new role.. she hasn't been given a proper chance, like many have said either way people would have something to moan about whether Jade or someone else had gone up. All im saying give her a chance and let her do what she wants to do, i know she will do fab.

Secondly, she has worked her butt off for Habboxlive and Habbox in general and thats what is needed for an AGM role, dedication which Jade has. (That's not me saying that mike didn't or any other AGM doesn't because they all do)

anyway O/T: congratulations Jade and thanks to Mike! xx

18-08-2013, 09:34 AM
I love how some people congratulating her are clearly terribly bitter but are trying to hide it (with little success, I'm afraid).

Let's all just step back and give the poor girl a chance. She's been AGM less than a week and everyone is already attacking her for absolutely no reason at all. Sure, if she turns out to be a bad AGM *which I highly doubt* then everyone is right to complain, but seeing as she hasn't actually had a chance to prove herself at all yet, I am totally confused as to why everyone is crying....

So anyway, congratulations Jade :)

Samanfa; -Danube- actually went from RVM to AGM (Staff) and then later changed to AGM (Community) I'm sure. Idk about any before that though. But yeah idk why Rare Values is considered a community department tbh, we have to use Habbo but that's about it - we don't actually have to like.. engage with the users like other depts such as events and help desk. But yeah, Dan could be the only AGM to come from RV although idk for sure :P.

Rare Values is a community department, that may change in the future, but it has been for years.

Name me the last three community based events that the RV department did, without looking in staff forums and searching for posts about them.

At least you agree with me that rare values are not a community department anymore;


On the list we do have their real name and their Habbo one as I don't agree that RareValues is a community department anymore

If you are going to make claims, it would probably be worth checking your previous posts - the one I have just quoted is just 4 months old |-) After your evidently bitter performance in this thread, I would be surprised if you ever make it to AGM (and I don't think from memory Habbox make people who aren't even department managers AGMs...)

Why would I check my old posts when I never said I agreed to it being a community department, that was from four months ago you say and it's still a community department now.

Without looking I remember doing Speed Dating, but the others that Will made were Habbox based, I still agree it should be a content department though.

Also, you're entitled to your opinion, but I don't and didn't feel bitter, nor will I. I was surprised as was many and if it came across that way it wasn't intentional, if I was bitter I would have expected the role, but I didn't even consider myself. It feels lile I'm repeating myself a lot, but that's due to people accusing and not reading what I'm saying.

I technically wasn't a manager when I was offered AGM. Ultimately it's the best person for the job and despite her flaws, Jade does have the qualities that a good AGM needs. Officially, RV is a community department and it is only limited by its lack of imagination if it thinks it does not need to interact with users. More broadly, I define RV as the trading department, they're part of the trading landscape and they should do everything in their power to get involved with that subculture of Habbo.

I was just about to give you as an example haha, I have mentioned it numerous times that it's no longer a community department, but unfortunately it never did get changed. The person who does work on it, not including the staff is a content side staff member, so I think the shift may just give a different outlook on the department and make it worthwhile.

Although I believe Mike will be a massive loss for Habbox I am a firm believer in change. Good luck though Mike, you did some great things for Habbox and I'm sure you would never be forgotten! I don't really know Jade as she joined management after I left the team but I'm sure she will be great! I remember becoming News Manager and a lot of people weren't too convinced, however, I pulled together with the team and we made some great changes and developments. As someone previously said, it's a fansite and it's meant to be about enjoying yourself, socialising etc - sometimes I think we need to remind ourselves of that. Good luck to Jade I am sure she will do a fantastic job! :)
