The standard of Habbox events...

5 min break pls

I'm still of the opinion Habbo doesn't need help desks anymore, it does explain why HxHD is dying as there does seem to be a lack of demand these days. Judging by the responses here no-one particularly likes working there and they probably only turn up because they feel they need to, rather than an actual sense of duty. If HxHD was an animal you should put it down - keeping it alive is just cruel :P

hxhd has been more of a lounge than a help desk for years now. rename to hx council lounge and staff members council staff. sorted.

no [@]@kyle[/@] just no

didn't they reduce staff limit of hxhd to 13 or so a few years ago

and it was more active than the 21 staff there now, lol

when i was there over the last 4 months i did feel FORCED to go in to get my hours, it wasn't through choice. and i spent most of my hours on my own for like 4 hours browsing the forum with hxhd up in the background in case anyone came in (they never did).

Ok... this has gone off topic from events to hxhd... ANYWAY

I sort of agree with Kyle. Helpdesk's are not really needed now. Perhaps transform the Helpdesk into a lounge? idk.

hxhd to lounge has been discussed tons of times in the past, everytime its been declined, it will be declined again now.

I thought HxHD was a lot better back when it was given a more lounge-like atmosphere. It had the executive furniture, a staff area of just 9 squares and a staff limit of 12. The most active HxHD Staff were kept on during the change and I felt it was a step in the right direction towards modernising the department. Help was still given (and it was still considered a Help Desk), but it had the qualities of a lounge and that's what made it successful.

I remember a big deal was made over it at the time (Leah was the manager?) and as the management progressed (David and Shar), the staff limit rose without any official announcement. Now, it's back to where we started. We've got groups like we did back in 08 and it's clear to see that it's just not as beneficial as it was back then. The reason why management are struggling to keep staff active is because there's no reason for them to be there. It's a chore to do five hours, so why make them do it? Cut the staff limit so it means people won't rely on them as much to power the room's activity. The room should be active regardless of whether there's staff or not. Reduce the size of the staff area and focus on what's modern - and that's a lounge-like atmosphere as opposed to an unnecessary help service.
