Not being harsh or anything, its a forum so we're debating our point of views in a friendly manner :) ( I hope the feeling is mutual from your side too! I've noticed many users get uptight when you just tell them "No, this is what I think")

Perrrrrhaps but I'd say the hotel grew more currently than before, they've changed the over all performance and running as well as the GUI! I believe rollers were released around Callie's time which did give a lot of lag... ESPECIALLY the first frigging day! Was a nightmare as I remember... anyway sticking to the subject... Script programs became more popular because I can't remember but either OB(Full name not listed with obvious reasons) or someone released coding.. I forgot but someone released the coding and it became easy for people to go "Ooo looky at me! I can code a program to script habbo! Even if it does the same thing as the others I can! See! Lets all make scripted photos but let people use MY name and MY program coz then I can be 1337!" Which was I think the same time the creator of fake logins released his code for the entire web coding and a tutorial(Okay he released it first and then someone slipped the code for scripting programs).... he was a nice friendly guy! :D Never spoke much to him/her but observation wise he/she helped alot of people and although he didn't intend it to be used too badly it happened and not only did scripting but FL's started flooding the habbo market. (FYI for those who aren't too sure... Fake Logins are VERY VERY much different compared to Scripting...)
Not sure but could anyone answer if the worst scripting happened in Jibbi's period? I know coloured and erroring stickies was possible in Callies period.. I think coloured stickies stopped towards the end of callie or when LW started... can't remember.

You're on a fansite right now? Callie is certainly responsible for what fansites are today, she began honouring the official fansites and their owners by attending their events, giving them exclusive news and giving them rares and letting them become her friends. She also had the Fansite drop-in and regular Fansite Weeks. These factors encouraged people to make fansites as they wanted all these 'royalities'.
Like I said, don't go to much fansites I've only ever used HXF for trading, this thread caught my eye :P and once in a while browse at the new pixel furni... just sticking to updates once in a while regarding habbo. I guess that Callie might have done that not sure so I can't comment much I'll have a no comments on this one.

Contradicted yourself there, you say that Habbo's determine the value and then blame Habbox for the throne rising. And also how can Habbox help ruin Habbo when you say 'there is more to habbo than trading and its a Hotel Managers duties to look at those as well as trading'
You can't thank Lost_Witness for releasing new rares, that's down to Sulake for making the furni, when Callie was manager they didn't have the range of furni they have today. Lost_Witness has only began releasing 'new' rares in the past 2 years anyway, before then he did have new furni at his disposable but preferred to release super rare's or recolours.
.
Sorry didn't be too clear on this one.. my bad... when I mean incharge of trading I mean regarding scams,etc. But yea, I contradicted in the point of making new furni.. woopsy sorry forgot that Sulake does that too.
I'd very much still blame habbox RVR for the throne increase thats almost hit the 70 or 80 mark... forgot which. I think its ALMOST 80.

She was the one who began all the interaction with Habbo's though, it mostly works well hence why Lost_Witness has continued the regular competitions and events in the Hotel. Badges came around at the end of Callie's time at Habbo but Badges along with super rare's being given out are what started sucking-up and we can blame Callie for this.
By the way I forgot to mention this regarding competitions, LW's competitions rock :) Oh and the incoming of the Idea agency which I think he might have approved... its not only giving a chance for kids to join in but also a slight insight on dealing with common adolescent problems. (No I'm not supporting LW, just stating my opinion).
I'm quite certain badges started recently... Weren't the first badges Room Raider (Visiting xx no. of rooms that don't belong to you) and shiz? Especially because I remember a quote on someone saying "Bucho told me that the new button is something to keep and eye out for!" well.. something along the lines.

Hmm I disagree, I'm not that supportive of Callie though my posts may suggest otherwise. Like I said, she was a victim of her own success and she's responsible for all the sucking-up etc, did that really make Habbo any better? The hotel wasn't as much back then but I personally think it was better and you'll find a huge amount of people who agree.
Suckups always existed through out history no matter what :P
I find alot of people saying "The old hotel was better" not with supporting facts but just to be part of the "We're old skool and we're cool" campaign.
Quite frankly, recently only did I find with the rapid release of new varying rares that people are accepting the "New Management".
ALSO! Bucho and LW .. well Bucho mainly tries to be an ice breaker and joke around alot. Maybe I never paid attention before or something but I'd say that the new management and staff are more communicative with players? (Flynn 5000 or whatever and that guy that made christmas decorations and a video on how to cut a piece of paper and glue it together.. don't ask me names!,etc)
For the record by the way... on the lines of scripting.. PLEASE don't quote or think I know much about scripting.. I'll flat out admit I just read on things doesn't mean I know how to or can do it! I could probably be wrong on SOME things!
