The close friend turns out to have been hacked, the link is a habbo stealing one, and the person gets hacked.
Then because of that, the user is fired.
Seriously? You would fire someone who behaved, was good at there job and worked very hard, due to one simple mistake?
I'll respond to this more in-depth when I get home tonight, but since most peoples' anti-dismissal arguments stem from scenarios where staff members got hacked from clicking links that was not the case in the recent firing of Ouft.
I'll have to agree with Matt.. Let's put in a scenario..
So, Matt Garner is off on Tumblr like he is a lot (if he isn't let's imagine) , and he happens to click on something that allows the person to access not his hxf account but the habbox.com account. Do you really think he'd be dismissed by Jin for such a thing like that? After all the time and hard work he's put in to get general manager, would he be fired for something he had no control over? He can't exactlly re-apply to be general manager, same as Lee, after long ages of hard work cannot simply go back into the role he was previously in.
Sure, this issue with Lee has created a security hype over Habbox as a whole but surely it isn't his fault this happened.
When Habbox itself is hacked or a security breach ever arises, why aren't General Management fired?

Well this is interesting. The whole firing business appears to have come out of nowhere.. :P I do think it was just a rule someone made up on the spot after someone was hacked and it just stuck without any official recognition or announcement.Quote:

The rule has been in place since the early days of me first working at Habbox and most likely even before that, so it's not like it's been made up on the spot in recent months or anything like that. But threads have been posted a number of times within department forums that if you are ever hacked and damage is caused, then there is a risk of you been removed from your Habbox roles. I feel the handbook should be updated to include that, as it has been a rule for quite some time now.Quote:
