The standard of Habbox events...

Dunno why you've said you don't get what the problem is when you've stated it right there lol, the problem is that if nearly everyone at an event is already a member/staff of Hx (which has always been the case in events I've been to) then there are no new people or general public being introduced to us as a community.

---

The problem people are saying is that too many staff go to events, but I dont think that needs to be dealt with, instead focus should be on bringing new people in. Even when staff do go to events, there is still always plenty of space as alot are held in 50 people rooms, so I dont think that staff attending are to blame for the public being introduced to the community. In the end when staff/djsgo to events, thenumber of people in the room increases = popular room, and people coming in to play.

I think it would be pretty pointless if there was some sort of rule enforced about staff not being able to attend events, after all we want to get Habbox event rooms as popular as we can, the main reason being that it would attract new people into the community. I've noticed in the past few months that the number of events and the number of people attending the events has definitely improved and if you want this to decrease, go ahead and stop staff from coming to events but I don't think it would be beneficial for either of the two departments. I know that quite a lot of the people attending the Habbox events are staff but there are also some new people that come along, which are then introduced to the site and the forum. The only way which you can introduce new people to the events is by getting the room popular so it appears on the navigator. There's more of chance of new people coming to a popular event then a room which doesn't have a lot of users in.

[@]@Inexorably[/@] - I'm sorry about what happened in the event earlier, this is something that doesn't happen a lot and we don't want it to happen a lot either. If you have any further problems in the future just let us know. It would probably be best for you to provide screenshots too. :)

Wouldn't the bit in bold be hard to do, given that new people may feel discouraged? You would feel like you've walked into a Habbox Staff Meeting :P Plus you have the issue of space. It does need to be dealt with, because the space staff are taking up could be taken up by potential new members. You can't ignore the staff problem as you have a space issue - the room limit.

They shouldn't be forced to not go or be actively discouraged, but I think staff should know that these events aren't just for them and be polite enough to sacrifice their space in the room to others trying to get in. Besides, the Help Desk could provide extra space. You can advertise that in the event room description as well as the natural influx of people entering popular rooms in usually circumstances.

tbh that really just proves that there are plenty of staff online usually, just not in the desk :P glad to see you've got them in there now though, sounds like you're carrying thedepartment by yourself at the moment lol

I'm just trying to make it fun for people, even small things like chatting. Too often staff are silent until someone needs help and the lodge is some sort of psychological barrier, people forget they can converse to people outside of the staff area. I'm gonna do some quizzes every night next week or something if people want me to. I did part of the quiz earlier and people enjoyed that but I guess that was for the VIP as opposed to the great hosts.
