What do you like least

It's controversial I know about the HxHD vs lounge debate but I've switched sides completely over the last two or three years. Now I'm all for a lounge as no one can exactly argue the Help Desk is succeeding at the moment :/. And it's not like the help aspect could be forgotten entirely either, just advertise it as a lounge. No help desks are popular anymore! Honestly how many users are really looking for a help desk anymore?

But OT the thing I dislike most about Habbox is the massive amounts of negativity. It sounds really stupid and I just kind of assumed it happened on all forums but honestly I've joined other forums and Habbox is the worst when it comes to passive aggressiveness and sneaky, spiteful bullying. Obviously I don't really know how anyone could begin to fix that but I do think loads of people- and I'm definitely guilty of this myself sometimes- behave so horribly on here I can totally understand why no new users want to stay. And it makes me very angry that the people who post "it's dead" and "RIP Habbox" in Spam, or put 100% blame on (general) management in Feedback for the low activity levels are often the same people who are so nasty (even if they think they're joking, new and normally younger users will not see that) to the newbies. Just my two cents.

Been going on for like 15 minutes, no one actually chats shit in the room to be honest, it's just calm and just chat tbh

Whenever I go in rooms like that it's always people asking for noooodz and c@m etc!!

Put 18+ on a room and it'll get full because all the 14 year olds turn up to be totally rebellious. It's never anyone with anything useful to bring to the table and definitely not people who want to be part of a fansite because they think they're 2kl4skl

Quite a while back I brought up changing it into a lounge instead and just having moderators rather than Help Desk Staff, could always put "help" in the little tags, but I know it wasn't really an idea everyone agreed on at the time :P

I do have to agree with @Empired; about the negativity. It is quite heartbreaking when people can be so nasty and seeing newer members leaving over it.

Changing the room name from 'Habbox Help Desk' to 'Habbox Lounge' isn't going to make 20+ people start coming in constantly.

I'm wondering if it'd be worth trying both, at the same time. See what people decide they like? There isn't a way we can report which one is winning, unless it's clear but least it'll clear this up once and for all

I agree. I'm not personally a beacon of positivity myself nor claiming to be a seat but Habbox certainly does have a generally negative aura about it and I think it can be quite off putting - if that's somehow changed in the past couple of months I apologise :P

don't agree in the lounge

the habbo community is toxic and habbox is probably the least toxic of the lot and thats saying something lol
