I fail to see the point in adding this to the forum,
if people want to chat on the forum:
SPAM FORUM

If people want to have instant chat:
HXHD

I don't see the purpose in this worthless redundancy that is *such an issue* to moderate in the first place.

[@]@xxMATTGxx[/@] the majority in the list (cameron, logan, shaz (ithink), abi) are for posting images.

Agreed with this.
Although, if people want an 'instant' chat and don't use habbo, then install flashchat or something with a link in the navbar.

Loving how the GM has stopped by this thread and addressed the issue of random bans (albeit in a "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S HAPPENING" way) but STILL said absolute bugger all about why this was even added against all proof that it was unnecessary and potentially damaging to forum activity

Okay guys. I have unbanned everyone because either they are for posting images, or because of a rulebreak near 1 hour 30 minutes ago. You all now know of the pictures rule (which you can't do anyway) and all other forum rules apply including the no more than 3 lines at once rule. So any bans from now on shall have a perfectly valid reason.

I said in the shoutbox I will remove it if someone buys me Habbo VIP! But I guess that won't work but I also stated that I no longer like the shoutbox in the shoutbox a few minutes ago. I doubt someone will get me the VIp so I shall remove in the next few minutes.

I'm also incredibly concerned if Scott was even made aware this was going to happen, it seems like a lot of things are being done to the forum lately that he's not being informed about.

To be honest it was his and other peoples ideas to bring it to the forum in the first place. The only thing I can remember that he didn't know about was that dual game thing.

Which there is no use for anyway. When the novelty of it wore out after the first week or so, no one uses it anymore :P.

What did I miss? :P It seems there was a shoutbox for a few minutes, I guess all the evidence it would not work overwhelmed a trial run of it? I thought you all learnt last time that shoutboxes simply do not work :P

No point it will never get used and it will just make the forum lagg

I don't think it will be a good idea, like others have said it will slow down the forum. If we had more users it might work.

I would like to see it on certain nights which I think is the plan. Not 100% however.

The decision lies with Forum Management. I would like it to be tried a bit more :)

Why? How many times does an idea need to fail miserably before people work out that it's just not a good thing to keep pushing for?

one would hope forum management (being the sensible people that i know scott + brandon are) saw how much of a disaster it was and just laid the idea to rest. or left it for the mods to use.

What I don't get is why management get to push through their stupid ideas when they're met with resistance but they stonewall us on our own suggestions.

Two words: Power complex ;) Give it time and they give in, it took them about 4 years to finallly allow all abbreviations unless they are directed at someone to insult them.
