Can we get more token shop items?

[Lewis]

Can we get more token shop items? I don't know what but it'd be nice to see something new, whether it's habbo based items or forum based. Maybe some new VIP colours, forum features, small bundles of norms. Something good and interesting!

On another note, we should definitely be able to gamble tokens :(.

[MKR&*42]

Yeah tbh I think it would be nice if there were a generic set of icons (displayed next to coloured usernames, like the current easter egg ones) that could be purchased to go next to your name. Obviously dont have too many and make them look decent but thats jus an idea

i agree there shud be more things in shop

[lemons]

i wanna be able to buy the pastel colour vip for longer than 2 weeks

[KingEvan]

restock on the gbs mk

[Mr-Trainor]

I suggested a few games which would be regarded as 'gambling', but seeing as that's now against the Habbo Way it'd probably be a bad idea to implement them. But that depends on what game it is and how the Habbo Way is worded though.

[Kyle]

yes and I would like some stats on how many people have spent tokens - how many and on what xxMATTGxx;

That'd probably mean recreating every VIP/Donator subscription for each icon that you sell and making things quite complicated tbh :P. Unless there's an easier way but I don't think there is?

[Daltron]

i like the idea of purchasing icons for our userbars or different coloured stars or something :P

While this is a super cute idea, Luke is right. The Easter VIP with and without the egg were two different user groups. For
this to be possible we would have to make a new user group for each icon on each colour if you get me?

I think the gambling thing would be fun but it might be a bit dodgy since Habbo have cracked down on their gambling rules.

But it's a free currency, you don't buy tokens. Surely it'd be fine with sulake?

You know, now that the lottery is banned, maybe a token lottery would be a good idea. You could pay a certain amount of tokens for a ticket, with a maximum of 20 tickets or something to buy. It'd encourage more posting on the forum to earn tokens and so on. Maybe the prize could be the amount of tokens overall spent on the said lottery, or a habbo prize. Or just something!

It's possible without usergroups by using profile fields.
Edit: Or even just template edits.

That's a good point. I don't think it'll encourage people to post more unless tickets are quite expensive but it is worth thinking about.

[Zak]

i don't even know what the current rewards for tokens are :P

[Mr-Trainor]

http://www.habboxforum.com/vbshop.php :P.

[Yawn]

only interested in credits

but yes id like to see who has accumulated the most tokens of all time (not just existing tokens that havent been spent)

[Mr-Trainor]

yes and I would like some stats on how many people have spent tokens - how many and on what @xxMATTGxx (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=1020);
You can hover on items in the shop to see how many of each item have been purchased, if that's the kind of stats you want :P. Based on that I put this together:

*The bottom should probably say total tokens spent rather than received.

For more specific stats we'll have to hear from Matt or another admin though :P.

[KingEvan]

ooo yes that would be so cute!

That would be awesome

[Kardan]

Token lottery would have been a good idea pre-ban, everyone buys a ticket for 100 tickets, winner wins half the pot.

[Hannah]

Yeah, I'm with everyone else with the token lottery. I think it'd be a great idea if there was a way around it :)

[GoldenMerc]

token lottery so i can put 9k down i dont want them

[scottish]

transfer them to me

[GoldenMerc]

transfer them to me

no marry me

[scottish]

gay boy.

lottery is ok.

[Kyle]

a lottery for tokens is technically allowed ye?

[FlyingJesus]

restock on the gbs mk

I would be pming @xxMATTGxx to restock on those gbs in the token shop if i was @dragga
lol

That would be good yeah, decent enough incentive to participate without any real risk and then it also keeps the total amount of tokens pruned back every so often which will save like idk £3 worth of free stuff but even so

[Kardan]

no marry me

**** goldenmerk.

[Lewis]

woo, some want my lottery idea lol. I'd definitely love to see it - whether you win a certain amount of tokens, VIP, habbo furni or whatever!

[Reality]

I think more things should be added into the vBull shop, like Hayden suggested like little icons to get to next to your name.
Just things that make the token shop more popular!
Also like Muck's idea, selling lottery tickets or something through the shop if the lottery ever becomes available again.

[Lewis]

hello, I'd still like to see a token lottery :(

[-:Undertaker:-]

Icons and the lottery sound like good ideas.

Wouldn't it be good if we had some cheap non-Habbo skins made that cost a lot in tokens for you to be able to use?

Another idea: maybe set up an exclusive club with badge & other features for a very high amount of tokens? Habbox Illuminati or something. :P

[Chris]

It's funny you should say that about the skins. Someone else suggested the exact same the other day :P I actually have an interesting idea for that so maybe we'll make use of it.

[Phil]

-:Undertaker:-; By icons do you mean the little icons next to the names such as the ghost and Easter Egg?

[scottish]

I would rather a raffle than a lottery, at least one person would win then instead of most likely no-one win.

Just do something like, 200 for a ticket, if over 20 people enter, add 10% tokens to the pot or something. If under 20 then just whatever people paid.

making users pay for skins imho is a bad idea, non habbo skins especially are more likely to encourage people to come on more when they're out and about (maybe even a slight bit, but still point stands).

[Chris]

It wouldn't be paying for the skins as such, but rather earning them through certain tasks.

[scottish]

Still, non habbo skins are something that's going to encourage people to view the site when out and about rather than when they're alone. Making it anything but given away absolutely free is a bad idea imho.

[Chris]

They certainly wont be bought with tokens. Just wait and see.

[Inseriousity.]

50c for avenger skin. dont like habbo anymore? dont want your uni/college/school friends to laugh at you? cough up. lololol

[Chris]

I like your thinking :P

[-:Undertaker:-]

-:Undertaker:-; By icons do you mean the little icons next to the names such as the ghost and Easter Egg?

Yeah those, or anything else if there's another way to do things.

One cool feature i've seen on other forums is where you can have a little flag icon on your location, we could introduce that as an extra feature?

[scottish]

can we have a scotland flag or are we forced to have a UK flag

[Kyle]

i would buy this along with any other permanent aesthetic features like (as a crude example) sparkles on a postbit, larger signature/avatar (file/dimension) size, etc.

[-:Undertaker:-]

Have as many as we like, I would use a St Andrews flag (as I do in real life on my flagpole) during the week of St Andrews Day.

[Phil]

I like the flag idea, I'll have a look to see if that can be done

I can tell you now though that the icons next to the names or the option to buy sparkles won't be happening. This is because you can't just stick an icon next to a name. A whole now user group will have to be created and with all the VIPs, donators etc and because of this you would need like twenty user groups alone for one icon lol. That's why we generally only do one colour when releasing an icon

[scottish]

Pretty sure you can edit it on a user by user basis rather than solely through usergroups.

I don't have a copy of vb4 to test though.

Perhaps its a feature on vb5, but I don't believe it is on the version we are currently using.

[scottish]

Do you still have a test forums?

[Chris]

Nope, it broke months ago after the sites went down.

[Chippiewill]

It's doable, just requires some minor template edits and some custom profile fields.

[scottish]

Yeah, so it's perfectly possible in vb4 :P

[Chris]

It's doable, just requires some minor template edits and some custom profile fields.

If you would be able to get it running for us then that would be appreciated. :)

[Phil]

If it can be done I would be all for it!

[Chippiewill]

If you would be able to get it running for us then that would be appreciated. :)

Sure.

[Chippiewill]

Sure.

Bump.

[Phil]

Would that imply that it's sorted? :o

[Chippiewill]

Would that imply that it's sorted? :o

That would imply that I do not have the access required to add profile fields or make template edits.

WELL THAT'S AWKS!!

Only the other day I was like "Hmm is that happening" :P
