I have no idea why, but I also have no idea why he can't be brought back. He even shown me a PM from MattGarner which said that there was a mistake in rehiring him as a trialist a month ago, and his trial was revoked. They didn't give him a reason, and given that he's done all of the above for Habbox, surely he would deserve one, or to have never had the trial retracted at all.

thanks lol

I got a job at habboxlive not to long ago but as soon as I passed my trial I left just due to the fact that it was dying, people had their own 'little groups' for ******** and it just wasn't my cup of tea. I dunno if its still the same but yeah :P.

Some of these things come from above General Management (from what I've heard).

If every manager were to do that, it would actually make many departments much better.

*-*comes 2 ya reskue*-*

Yeah, Jess was a massive pain in your ass I never heard the end of it when I was AGM under you (ooer) and she continued to be a pain when I was GM. When I say pain I obviously only mean that because she was so forthright with her views and incredibly supportive of them and wouldn't just let them go at the drop of a hat. And although I say pain, again, I would more often than not say she was one of the best managers at Habbox because of it. She stood up for herself and what she believed in. I agree, if every manager were to stand there ground and have their departments best interests at heart then I think departments would be a lot better off in the long run.

Afterall, HxL is the front runner in terms of getting people onto Habbox so merging both together will do them both some good. The Radio can just say "Go to Habbox.com" and Habbox gets some extra attention. Best for both of them. The arguments against it don't really exist,as HxL is hardly "large" and "Hx" won't take over unless you have done something to the website that makes the radio re-load when you load a page (or just use a pop-up, though that's a bit lazy and untidy).

Well that's speaking in the current, remember that at the time we were still getting 300 listeners and a wide variety of HxL content. Hence why I'm a little more supportive of the idea now ;)


And thanks Sam :P

Hope to see some of your ideas being implemented Jake, they all sound good. :)

Sorry for the short reply, I've replied to the main community points for now but I'll hopefully reply to the rest a bit later:

• Merge HabboxLive and Habbox
I agree with this. HabboxLive is not as popular as it used to be and I think merging the sites could be a step in the right direction, especially with v6 as the Habbox site will be a lot more interactive.

• Get well known Habbos to advertise Habbo in their rooms
A while ago I contacted the most popular casino owners and they agreed to put www.Habbox.com in the room description and in return we'd advertise them on Habbox.com. It worked for a while however a lot of casino owners then changed accounts / rooms and didn't add Habbox.com back into the room description and when I asked them if they were still interested / started asking new people if they were interested, I basically got ignored (:() and had to start going through other people which is where it started to go wrong. I am hoping to re-launch this soon though and try it again from scratch.

• Put teles in the most popular Habbo rooms and create a Habbox mall type thing – link to HxHD too.
I started to create something like this except I called it Habbox Central instead. The basic idea was to create a room which all Habbox rooms could be linked to but it could run itself too and be more popular than a simple room full of teles which is similar to what you were suggesting. It's not quite finished yet though.

• Allow Jamesy or someone else who can do techy stuff the same access as Jin or enough to be able to fix things.
I think Matt definitely needs to have more power to be able to sort server issues, unban people who've been ip banned for getting the wrong password, more control over v6 etc.

• Don’t blame current management – the signs were there for a while.
Too true, shame they chose to ignore the ones who warned them though.

• Habbox (site) is more important than Forum – get working on that.
Again, agreed. It's the one which brings in the main hits, they then sign up to the forum from there.

• New material for Habbox – teens corner, persuade Jin. What else?
/
• Merge HabboxLive and Habbox
Could work I guess but I don't use them so /

• Get well known Habbos to advertise Habbo in their rooms
/

• Put teles in the most popular Habbo rooms and create a Habbox mall type thing – link to HxHD too.
/

• Ask popular foreign Habbo fansites (habbotimes) if they want Habbox to be their UK based forum.
/

• From now on only choose management who are dedicated, powerful, interact and actively use Habbo (being known is a preference – yes shallow but does undoubtedly help).
Agreeable.

• Allow Jamesy or someone else who can do techy stuff the same access as Jin or enough to be able to fix things.
Agreed, Robbie could also help.

• One new forum skin. Slim. Neutral colours. SMALL BANNER. Cute. For teenagers.
ikr

• Allow people to hide rep/join date/post count – reset rep? :O
I like this.

• Mass unban
Woo Minstrels returns.

• Email all userbase
If we have the choice to opt out.

• Be more lenient with rules / scrap all rules apart from use common sense
I like this, warned for pointless posts. Get more lenient punishments for calling some a ****.

I think it's also a big advantage that he posted them in a very intelligent way and the discussion has been on the whole very constructive and positive *cough*. I've made many posts about my opinion on how to make feedback effectively, and Jake is a great example of someone who knows how to do it (the only issue is that sometimes he blatantly chooses not to do it that way :P)

I think if these ideas had been poorly written then it wouldn't have the same effect. Although, my sentence structure does get very lazy in certain paragraphs. However, I think you address another problem. There is a way of getting what you want / getting heard. I know it because I have been here far too long. New members don't. Is there anything that can be done to give their voice/views a bit of an amplification.

Even if it were popular you could still merge the two together. Habbox is a single entity, so HxL, HxF and Hx need to support each other as they're run by the same people and all interact and carry the Habbox banner. So a special webpage on Hx for HxL like you get with many companies e.g. BBC have their Radio page look different to the rest of th website, but keep it on the same website so all Habbox content is kept in the same place. It might stop people complaining that Habbox and HabboxLive are out doing each other, when there should no competition. It's like the English Football team battling themselves to win a World Cup :P Obviously the same cannot be done with the forum as there is a limit to what you can edit, unless you have HabboxForum open up in a section of the Habbox website (www.habbox.com/forum) with the banner cut out to avoid an overload of images, and keep the habboxforum.com domain so people can see it as a single website like we do now, so you get two ways to view the forum with one making the Habbox/HxL content viewable to people just browsing the forum and as we see it now, banner and warts and all :P

I think that makes sense at least, would make Habbox.com unique seeing as ClubHabbo have a seperate website and forum, while Habbox gives that option AND a quicker way to view the forum in whatever website designers call the tables that open up other websites to view.

Why isn't this kid in charge?
Oh and bananas ;)

I agree with everything you've said, specially merging hxl and habbox main site
