I don't think you've been negative at all, personally. So there's nothing to worry about. But like you said, administrators have the final say.

I think it looks untidy because the thread names are sticking out every four or five threads and it looks all over the palce.

In regards to the prefixes, I see where you are coming from in terms of why the WoW forum needed to be readded however everyone should consider that the prefixes are still been tested across the forum to see what sort of use they can be. In my opinion they can certainly be of use to some extent within subforums or in forums which need a little bit of structure to it without requiring lots of subforums to be added. I do agree that they should stand out and be used to make things more structured but not untidy and unless it is done correctly I agree it can look messy but that is why things are being tested. I think it is worth waiting to see how things play out with the prefixes and I'm sure an appropriate decision can be made in regards to where they play a role within the forum. :) For example their use in International News and Rumors is definitely worth while considering to separate US/CA/Other hotel news and rumors as separate subforums are not really needed within the forum but it is nice to make it clear which hotel a thread is related to when it is posted.

Also in regards to people being banned for "voicing their opinion" although the individual case will be looked into, considering this when we look at the bigger picture in regards to the rules - no one is every banned for voicing their opinion on matters if they conduct themselves in the correct way. People attempting to continually rub negativity into the forum either deliberately or not by going out of their way to explain why everything that is done is done in the wrong way and having a lack of appreciation for the efforts put into the forum by staff as well as being rude and bad mannered deserve to be banned. I'm not referring to the individual case you are talking about as that would have to be looked into specifically however on the whole there needs to be a line drawn between what is suggesting things and having a level of "freedom of speech" on how the foruma nd site are ran and what is simply rude and taking advantage of the fact that we spend time listening to feedback, considering what people say and try to provide the best services we can to members.

Why does it take this long to test things within Habbox Forum? Usually they're done quickly if whoever's behind the changes has passion in what they do... Maybe there's a lack of it?

It has now been tested. WoW forum was returned, the rest is remaining as prefixes for the moment, with the Habbo International forum probably following closely, shortly.

How are you going about with prefixes? Because currently the small text next to the thread title doesn't work at all, it's unwanted mess really. All other options seem to revolve around them being messy really, by: changing the colour, making them bigger and bolder or the use of images. I don't think it's just me who sees the current prefixes as a mess :P

Before you make these changes to prefixes I think you should unban Naughtynemo and Neversoft...

It's really frustrating making me go through all this trouble when I really have done nothing wrong. I actually took the time to read the thread that stirred all of this up earlier and now I can see why Nemo was banned, although he deserves a caution at the most because he is not constantly negative, but what I said compared to what he said is nothing. Nothing at all, yet we warrant the same punishment. I really don't understand their reasoning and methods. I also noticed that Jack said he wasn't allowed to post negative things as he had been warned that it would lead to a ban. If the management thought I was constantly negative, wheres my warning? This further proves that I'm not constantly negative at all and I was banned because of one measily sentence they didn't like in my post where I said they always have to be right and we always have to be wrong. :) I also read Forum's thread in the 'Ask the Forum Staff' section titled 'Negative Rule'. He asked if we're not allowed to be negative in general, or just negative to staff. He got some replies.

"The people that have been banned have just had constant negative views about Habbox and the decisions they make."
Thats not me then, as I only complained about the anime forum.

"Basically, if the majority of your posts consist of a negative attitude, then you will be punished for it."
That doesn't concern me either. I'm a constant help in the Anime, Movies and Nintendo section and a happy person in general.

"The type of punishment, for example; caution, temp ban, perm ban etc depends on the severity of your negativity."
I said one little negative thing and recieve and permanent ban? I'd hate to see what happens when you're actually constantly negative...

I really do wonder why I am banned. This is a massive mistake and I hope management (or MAD, whoever) will realise that and right what is wrong. By the looks of it though, I'm starting to wonder...

Is my ban being looked into or what. I used the contact us thing yesterday, still no reply.

It's only a 2 second job to changing someone from the banned usergroup to the member/VIP member group, it does make me wonder where all these workers disappear to, loads of other forums have their staff eager and ready to work, because of the passion they have in their job. Toot sweet!
