cba to read it (I think this is the official Habbox staff view on most feedback) but asking me to write it all out for you...
Essentially it just requires that news/articles that go on the site be posted as threads, and then the main text - or a headline and small summary if not - be put on the main site with the clickthrough "read more/comment" type link sending people to the thread. That way more people will see the story as it'll be viewed by forum members as well as the 5 people who read them on the site (who will then actually be part of the community and not just passers-by), and there is also the opportunity for proper discussion of the story which doesn't tend to happen on the site. Staff would only need to do the same as usual in terms of actual writing, it's just 5 seconds difference pasting it into a thread first before the main site article is placed with the link
Yeah, basically what I said without needing to read your posts. It is 1am, I am tired so I don't have to go reading through posts/threads i I don't want to :P
I agree, another forum does this... Are you saying that full news report should be posted on the forum? Or part news report then a read more/comment link that links to the article on the Habbox website?

but seriously the events are dead. my sig a while back was hx rooms vs hffm rooms and its like that always? does the events management change anything? nope the assistant manager gets a screenie on th one of chance where a habbox event has 30 people lol. maybe instead of taking screenies you could advertise could be improved help them improve!
same with rooms. people see ugly habbox rooms and thing priz is pixel furni!!!!!!!!!!!!
MY EVENTS AND ROOMS WHERE TH BEST IM SORRY BUT I REMEMBER ALWAYS GETTING 40+ in my rooms because i cared lol
Edited by e5 (Forum Moderator) - Please don't post names of people where it could cause an argument or be seen as targeting a user.
First game of current event just started at 20 past, last event was the same host and didn't once mention Habbox even when asked what rep was. Not heard him say it yet this event either, even at the start it was just "ok were starting". Complaints near enough every day and we get told that things are happening, just behind the scenes - somewhat redundant when it has no effect whatsoever on the state of affairs
Will probably get slated by every events person for saying this, but nothing is happening at all. Events is doing so poorly because most (no, not all) people are not trying hard enough. I complained massively a few weeks ago about how events need to be varied and not the same old "bingo, ff, fridge game, don't roll a 6" every bleeding day and minus one occasion where the only useful senior+ removed 3 bingo games (there were 3/4 booked to be held over the course of 6 hours.....), variation is rarely reached ever.Quote:

However, I do agree a large amount of them don't advertise or remotely try and encourage people to join the forum or interact with them (no way.. talking to people and encouraging them to use Habbox services?????? :OOOO).
Won't "backstab" too much, but it doesn't help when 3 out of 4 members of senior/management barely communicate.
Is this the host that said Hffm twice before habbox the other night lol!Quote:

Recently DJs have been putting more effort in and this week the radio has been up for 158 hours out of 168. They really have pushed and quality is slowing being pushed to improve as well. Its one of them things now that we have a well structured department we can make the necessary changes. We are currently sorting out weekly shows and approaching people who we feel can do them to help the community side as well as doing events/hxstarz and what ever else we can based on giveaways/win a rooms etc. Listeners have improved, by no means where I feel they should be but they have improved. It is a matter of pushing and continuously putting in hard work to get what we want.
Like Hayden said we do advertise as much as possible. But a certain amount of people don't do that unfortunately and it is really disheartening. I try to do as much as I can for events and my event from tonight shows if you go in you can get not only the numbers but a great community feel as well. I just think that people need to work on providing 1) a great community event which is entertaining/fast-paced 2) rooms that don't look like something chucked up in a bucket and ultimately 3) just a damn good event. I think more needs to come to allow for this though I genuinely do. And I'm going to keep saying this but events as well as HxL needs a better international side who are willing to work and provide a great support for this!
I was in a Habbox Live room today, think it was a giveaway and every 5 seconds a user was advertising Habbox, which was good to see.
