What irritates you about Habbox

[scottish]

If you could only pick one thing (may be hard for some people!!) what irritates you (the most) about Habbox?

[Chris]

The fact that people refuse to accept change.

[j0rd]

The fact that people refuse to accept change.

How people leave and return jobs

LMAO even if i wanted to idk if I would be allowed.

[Reality]

Probably the amount of stupid feedback threads made... {bertie}

[lawrawrrr]

Hypocrites.

[Samantha]

Some of the cliques that make threads about a personal joke which we can't get or find funny because we're not in with them.

to be fair we've all done it with volvic, sharpies etc though :P

[Samantha]

Oh yeah, true LMAO. I don't mind it, I might just be a bit nosey ;).

Two things:

When people resign from a senior position then return to the same position, I understand no one might be suitable, but you could just keep the space open until someone is (unless it is urgently needed).
When people resign from a job for not having enough time then go get a job for requires a lot more time than the other department.

[Richie]

When a department is discussed and staff members come into the thread "I DO THIS THAT THIS AND THAT, ITS NOT MY FAULT" when its not about them it's about the entire department.

[Alkaz]

Probably Samanfa;... haha just kidding x

It irritates me how long eeeevvveerryytthing takes to be implemented/changed/updated, unless of course there is a massive debate in the feedback forum theb all of a sudden things can be done almost instantly.

[Bloop]

that you find out your opinion isnt valued {bertie}

[-:Undertaker:-]

My pet hates are the incredible ******ness that now goes on in the staff sphere and has for a few years (never used to be like that years ago) especially among many of the girls via Skype as well as the desire of some people in staff to make a molehill out of everything, ie demanding department reports that are the thickness of the yellow pages. The disease of tedious and pointless waffle that forgets that this is a Habbo fansite and not a FTSE corporation..

[Evanora]

how most of the users here are sheep and can't formulate their own opinion without it being shoved down their throats by their "friends"

also my dear friend deathday being banned !

- - - Updated - - -

also overuse of the following words:

legit, like, omg, om, lmao, LMAO

typical habbox sentence: om i legit just fell down the stairs and like broke my ankle LMAO!!

[Matt]

How seriously people take it. It's a habbo fansite but they treat it like the real world.

How easily offended people get.

How ****** it can be - at times it turns into people backstabbing others and laughing about people behind their backs

[Brad]

Two-faced people.

And the ones who take the fansite a little too seriously..

Also, I would say when people spell in "text talk" or those abbreviations for words that they could easily type properly...

[Bloop]

oh **** brad my bad

lack of like system.
dunno i'd say the numerous reboots of a v7 project but that's more comical than irritating. managements refusal to hire a professional?
pretty much done though right so dunno again.

How people don't understand the idea of choosing ONE thing that irritates them about habbox and lists a whole load of things instead ;)

jk jk

This really. Blame-shifting pisses me off so much. I would respect someone much more if they were to say "sorry guys this was my bad, I'll fix it for you now" than "IT WAS HER NOT ME SHE'S THE ONE WHO DID EVERYTHING"

[Brad]

Totally did this. ;)

OT: I'd really like to see what this thread's purpose is.. If it's in feedback, is there a solution to the things that are irritating people? Or is this just a way that we can be passive aggressive towards individuals?

[A]

the fact that everything is dragged out over weeks and it's really **** what's changing lol.

lmaooooooooooooooooo
the office politics. Ideas not being pursued because of the people pursuing it rather than on the idea's merits, just one example.

[Kyle]

ignorance to often very crucial feedback if it isn't framed positively

non deviation from rigid thread structure and the inability of many users to form a reply that hasn't been created already

people that think they're hilarious but are only funny to about 1.3 people

stubbornness, ignorance (in "arguments" or debates within discussions)

when people post OT: and contribute the same thing they posted originally or when a post containing OT: immediately alerts mods to "off topic" posts and they go on a frenzy for their logs.

[dbgtz]

The focus on quantity over quality of posts. Don't get me wrong, **** posts are fine but people spamming the same poor quality thread every week which they also cannot seem to formulate their own response in the original post and feel the need to reply 10 minutes later to their own thread is just a bit poor. I'm probably guilty of doing this myself at some point, but it's still poor nonetheless. As far as I can tell, the only area where quality is rewarded is in the debates section.

nah what bothers me is when people constantly complain that there is nothing on the forum and they're bored then when people make threads, they're not quality enough and people are back to moaning. yet the same people never create their own discussion and post in the threads anyway.

in the same line, how people think this is anything more than a habbo forum and that rules should be followed to a T, where people should post the way you like it and only when it's something "quality" when the audience is targeted at young people. it's not a debate forum. it's not a forum where you have to post only quality posts. these sections are there for threads on anyone to post pretty much anything, so that's what you're going to get.

Not quite sure if you were aiming that at me or not, but I will say I don't think I've ever complained about the forum being boring :P When I say discussion, I pretty much mean a thread where I could actually reply to someone's reply without going off topic which you can't do in a lot of threads. And when I say quality, I suppose I meant effort which is arguably a reason people don't bother posting in certain areas of the forum so they're just dying but I guess the only real solution to this is a more active userbase.

[j0rd]

oh also favouritism in management. forgot about that

[Jurv]

how boring and dull it has become! some people are too serious and offended too easily x x x

[IzzyUhh]

People are two faced

Like when I was manager I had plenty of people talking to me and nobody talks to me now, most of the DJs deleted me

Just proves they were basically after somethingg

[UnrealGoffEmo]

The fact that people refuse to accept change.

Some - but that is only the minority (v small at that) like in any walk of life) or School etc

My main thing is why don't loads of ppl return - here used to be mega when I was lurker (yeah it's still busy) but the members who seem active aren't as many!

[Landon]

The fact that some people can't lightly take advice from a superior. '
For instance, if a manager were to ask that [blank] happened on [blank] dates, some staff members rebel and become angry. :P If you can't take a request, might as well resign.

May seem very direct as to what I said and very unreadable, but you'd understand if you were me. :P

[mrwoooooooo]

the rules, they're outdated.

[Zak]

When management go about it like Habbox is some sort of business when in reality it's a fan site ran by kids (and always will be?)

Why so serious

[Landon]

Zak;
Professionalism should still be practiced, even if it's not a business. :P

[Phil]

the rules, they're outdated.

How?
Why do you think that?
What can be done to improve them?

[David]

how to improve the rules? allow referrals to other forums.

a12 probably doesn't need to be a rule either tbh, coders could fix a limit for that.

No difference between trialling in 4 departments and being staff in 4 departments, it's the same workload...

[scottish]

well trial is more workload as you're proving yourself, once you've passed you can just half arse it from there (as majority of the staff do)

but I agree, staff should only be allowed in 2 departments if they apply for a third fire them on the spot no questions

dirty <insert another fansite name> coming into hx and taking our jobs

I expect the same from a trialist as I do from normal staff - it might be harder as you're learning it but in pretty much every department it's fairly logical and anyone with half a brain cell can figure out how to do it VERY easily. You pass your trial by doing the job, no matter if you do 4 times the minimum or barely the minimum.

Years ago, you could only trial in 2 community departments at once. The rule sort of phased out as it was a bit pointless.

lol don't even think it was just community. nvrspk told me off for doing 2 at the same time once and they were both content depts (news and articles). It is definitely pointless though

Oh wow, I remember when I was Events and Rare Values in 2009 that I couldn't join anymore, didn't know it was content as well, but it might have been before my time that :P.

[Phil]

At that time Habbox had more users therefore staff. It wouldn't really work these days
