I agree!!
Well done content designers :D
oh and about HabboxTV, is it starting again or is it just like a flashback?
It is extremely pleasing to know that you like it. Hard work and effort has been going into that section of the site for quite some time now. :) Thanks very much for sharing your appreciated feedback.Quote:

I've reported one in the "Report Content Errors" thread and also, you should add MOD-UK to the moderators (who've left) section. He died in december 2005!Quote:

If I could inject some constructive criticsm, I think there is a bit too much personal opinion in there for what it is intended to be, which is an informative, encyclopedia style article. For example:
Quote:
Habbo seemed to be turning more and more money orientated as it expanded.
Having seen that, it might be an idea to run it through a spellchecker to make sure. But on the whole, it seems a lot of effort has gone into it, nice job :)Quote:
I personally prefer the old stlye (spelling mistake that I didn't actually notice before :P)
EDIT: Also the pictures of the catalogues are linked together when they should be seperate :)
http://www.habboxforum.com/showpost....12&postcount=4
just updated my post with added history. :P I'm surprised you guys forgot about those!
I tried!!! Those dates obviously didn't come up on archive.org :PQuote:

The events list doesn't mention every event, I was going to include RAF4U but couldn't get enough information - could you fill me in if you are so desperate for it to be mentioned :P I know it was different staff having groups like Jenova and some other stuff.
All errors mentioned so far should be fixed soon - when I've finished my work :P Any future ones, please can you post which page it is in.
Thanks for reporting those errors, we'll aim to get them sorted out ASAP. :)
I just watched the first episode I made my my how embarrising... lol
More than alot :P Working on it every day for over a month is hard work :( Especially with 3 weeks of that being Easter Holidays... meaning I'd stay up til 2/3am working on it :PQuote:

LOL I could list every single action in RAF4U, i could practically replicate the event. xD
JENOVA - Lost_Witness
GENO - Dionysus
RIF - Impetuous
TEA A - Helkat
KOSMIC KITTENS - Glitterkat
Sponsored by RAF4U, 5 staff members made teams in which Habbos could recruit themselves into, and help the daily operations like you were in your own team. The event was mainly for team structure however some teams could be identified from the Habbo Games back in the Jibbi days. Events were such team games as 'Capture the Flag' and 'Kick wars'. In the end, RIF won the event & finished officially in September 2005.
------------------------------
Halloween 05 was also where FRANK conquered the hotel. That was quite significant.
It might also be worth mentioning the update to the pods that .no got at V7, I don't know if they still have them but they looked pretty nice at the time. An updated pod is still available for viewing on one of the catalogue pages, I think its accessories ;)
And also you mention iced benches in the into to the furni page, but don't actually have a section about iced. But I'll stop picking fault now, its not fair :P
Thanks sir ryan :)Quote:

Catalogue screenshots of every catagory could be a good idea... Your choice though. You could find them on this forum quite easily with the amount of traders aha. -DEEjAy- was also a Hobba last time I checked. You're missing out the # section ;) Johno might be good to include in the staff part also, since he is the international technical director (or sommint) but he is staff on Habbo! :P
The eXpert lists is at least 7 months or more out of date, also they are referred to as staff, which they are not ;)
Standard X's are on probation for 3 months, not 2.
colmc is also responsible for X's alongside 0rca :)
Otherwise I think it's excellent :)
The information given in FAQ on Habbo is very out of date, so not your fault :)
I think by when they're included under staff, they're volunteers under Sulake and do have some role in the company's operations. I wouldn't call them employees, but they are sort of staff. Just they're not recognised as such. I'd keep it as it is to avoid too much confusion really. The last X announcement wasn't too long ago, so you could probably search the Habbo archives and retrieve the names to add to it.Quote:

I think she publicised it a little, and Sulake took the bait and bought the project seeing the potential in it. I can't remember if Dee & the 2 founders of Sulake were aquainted with eachother during the formation of Habbo Ltd. but I know that Sulake had no part in it for quite some time, until they decided to buy it. She never gave up the company, she just sold the project fully.
Sulake also purchased IRC Galleria in 2006(?) for a fee. It was the biggest IRC channel in Finland so they thought, OO LETS BUY IT LOLS. =P
What was the other game they made? MiniFriday was it? MiniMondays? Magic Mondays? I REMEMBER IT SORT OF. It was the mobile version of Habbo...
http://www.minifriday.com/
BAM!
I think its really good but have a few things for you.
The biggest thing involving the police has to be when sticky666 or whatever he was called was jailed for grooming a 12/13 year old over habbo and then met her in a real life hotel.
Habbohotel.co.uk was used and then it went to habbohotel.com and then back to habbohotel.co.uk
If you want to know more about daisy chase up 8freak8. im sure he knows her in real life. Daisy and jibbi did come back doing something for habbo not so long back but not sure what.
we used to be able to send console messages to the email account registered on habbo but this was removed because scripters could send messages to anybody and not just the people on their lists.
I remember when you had to click on the furni to trade and then on the person you wanted to trade. if the person had rights for all in their room it was easy for you to drop your furni there by mistake. I am pretty sure it was 1 item for another instead of the trade box but maybe i am dreaming lol
The aloa vera i didnt think was in the catalogue until it was a 25 cred rare but i do remember habbo saying dont trade for them as they were going to be deleted because they were scripted. after some time they were still about so ppl started trading again and then habbo deleted the lot. They then released the rare aloa vera of today which was much better designed compared to the scripters version.
The chessboard from the gamehall was scripted and people were trading for them but once you had one unless you were also a scripter you could not trade it on as you got errored without a filter running in a scripting program. You could have these but you couldnt drop them in a room. habbo later deleted them all.
I will think of a few more bits.
http://www.habbo.co.uk/home/UKeXperts
This group page is filled with information ;)
I must also say habbo make a big think that experts and the same with the hobbas were not refered to as staff or working for habbo etc else they could end up in big trouble over employment law.
Thanks for the feedback everyone, very appreciated. A lot of time and effort went into both the HK and Hxtv pages.
Do continue to post any mistakes such as typos or even incorrect information here. Content team will be checking this thread regularly and make appropriate changes where necessary :).
On the Doctor Who page Dalek is spelt wrong it was either a mistake I made when i put it on the HxTV website and they copied it or they just made a typo erm twice :PQuote:

Habbowealth Games was March 2006 as it matched the Melbourne Commonwealth Games. Also when I joined Habbo in July 2004 there was currently an olympics type events with teams like Jibbi Jabbers.
If I see anything else I'll point it out.
the 2004 one was most probably the Habbo Games then. That relates back to the RAF4U thing I said about. ;) I loved Hacker tbh... well good.
"Weird" was an ex hobba and isnt mentioned
and the bit about catalogue history, both images link to the new 1
thought id let you know
;)
Also, there was a whole alien invasion theme during Halloween '06 which lead to the release of the new rare, the Alien Aircraft (Fog Machine)
was it not the alien artifact? lolQuote:
Originally Posted by Bomb-Head

And those aliens were known as FRANK. I doubt you lot would remember. There was also a faction called 'Dark Piers' who was fighting to combat FRANK. That however, was invite-only. ;)
What do you mean by Catalogue Screenshots? I shall at the # section tomorrow, along with those Hobbas in that section i can find. Johno probably won't be added but I'm going to re-think the Staff Page about how some staff are shown - those who have left the 'Habbo Team' and gone on to the 'Sulake Team' and whether or not they should be included.Quote:

I just went by what was written on the old Habbo Knowledge pages for the Aloe Vera :P I was convinced you wrote cheeseboard :S I was going to add these images soon, the chessboard, mode column etc.
Thankyou :) Shall update that page later on.Quote:

Wow awsome job guys!
It's a great improvement to the old one which indeed was superb : https://habbox.com/hk.htm
Anyway a few things,
I swear it was apparatus and aapo who ran Mobile disco not sampo and Apparatus went onto become the first hotel manager for Habbo Goldfish (.fi) and the temp manager for the UK (Proven by screenshots orignally on the sulake site).
On the staff page you are missing quite a few Hobbas such as Petardo , karlos101 , Sunshinecutie and others in this group: http://www.habbo.co.uk/groups/4016/id
You are also forgetting Jokerrr (may have had more r's , not sure) which was the original Hobba account for the current Sulake techie, Johno.
Also the actual first celebrity hotel visit was by The gorillaz who did a hotel wide tour on almost all the hotels during either 05/06.
Not sure if it's missing or not but some other events took place were the Always salon comp, The gforce or w/e it was called event where people did' charity events' and Budy ended up winning , The Conextions competitons in January 06 which was a extremely big teleport maze quest and the Habbo talent show which took part last year.
You may also want to have a section on scripting that took part in the hotel such as the Kutakala furni , aloe vera , pods and so on aswell as talking about Sonicmouse and what happened when Dionysus went onto his account for an Halloween event.
A bit off-topic but you could make an Habbox history which acutally talks about the Habbox sites and all the staff and so on.
It might also be worth noting that the always salon badge was the first new badge to be seen since the hobba badge :)Quote:

Ooo just checked Habbo Knowledge, they're using an alt that was ripped from one of my alts previously :P
Habbo Knowledge is starting to give me a headache... That's alot of information in there :S
well done, i enjoyed reading it, even if i dont use habbo anymore
There's supposed to be, its supposed to be a repository of all knowledge :PQuote:
