Lol dream on if it's a Habbo thing, we do these things ourselves nowadays.

LMAO. Who is setting it up? Who initiated contact between the fansites?
You will find out more details nearer the time. It's an external event in which Habbox and many other fansites are taking part in. :)
I can confirm/say that ClubHabbo has jotted down a Habbox- ClubHabbo fansite event in Feb.. Otherwise, I can't see the rest of your points happening in current time.
They'll just try steal each others listeners users and so fourth.
I chose this fansite because I liked some of the staff members, and had friends who used this forum.
A co-operation changes nothing. If anything it risks the site with more users losing them to a fansite with fewer users.
Er no...lets not.
Firstly - Staff swap...HABBOX staff are HABBOX staff for a reason. They earned the job, and they WANT to be here. CLUBHABBO staff are CLUBHABBO staff for a reason. It MAY work with (no offense intended) smaller departments such as graphics etc. - sharing graphics and what not - maybe rare values (if Clubhabbo got them..) sharing their values and what not...but it WOULD NOT work with HabboxLive.
I am actually offended that you've suggested giving away a job I had to work hard for - to someone who may be completely substandard. Tonnes of people WANT to be Habbox DJs - but how many are...30? I am not saying Clubhabbo is bad, but the standard of Clubhabbo and the standard of Habbox is completely different, and in my opinion, Habbox DJs are of a higher standard - so that would actually completely destroy HabboxLive - with less good DJs (if they were swapping) and raise up Clubhabbo - because they had all the good habbox DJs.
Big "fansite events" are not a new idea...I think a couple of years back Habbo did a huge competition for official fansites to earn points in competitons etc. Just after I joined habbo - it was what got me into fansites. Fansites playing against each other would be fine - maybe running joint events on occasions - fine, but I don't think having combined events will work EVERY DAY...
And basically, as others have said, it would just become a bitter competition. What started out as a joint thing may become two bitter rivals - using an example:
Everton football club - The coach and players joined together to form Everton, but fell out and the team moved to a new stadium and left the coach without a team. He started up Liverpool and they became bitter rivals, always vying to win supporters and matches.
That's how it would be - it may start of nice and jolly, but it would soon break up and just become a match of who could get the most listeners/forum users/events participators etc.
Personally I think fansites should come together more. Habbo are not doing any of them any favours and it'd be a much bigger driving force to advertise as two or three than advertise as one.
I also think a staff swap is a funny idea and think people are overexaggerating. It wouldn't be the end of the world if staff swapped for a week. The staff would probably be under so much red tape from the inevitable rules to avoid trouble that they probably just get a week off! And it'd be optional, not like you'd be forced over to another fansite!
There'll always be that inner competition that makes fansites want to do better than one another and that's natural really, nothing will change that but users decide which fansite they want to go to. The same way they do now whether fansites work together or not.
