I think there were problems for permissions, as DJs should not be allowed to post new threads there. I quote you the following;

Quote:

---

your feedback and opinion on polls posted by Management in this forum

---

So yeh that doesn't seem right, as it should be that to the better development of Habbox as posted by management instead of DJs spamming up the forums with random polls.

But yeh, I'm sure this will get sorted :).

Don't worry, Lindsey didn't spam it up. :P The polls were moved there by forum management.

I do agree that there are a lot, and they aren't particularly relevant to the forum, but I guess that was the best place, rather than having it take up a whole page in the "Discuss anything" forum. I guess it's also nice that they turned it into a competition too, and it's also nice that Habboxlive are getting community involvement. :D

But wouldn't that defeat the whole purpose of the forum as per its description. Ah well :).

It was nice of her to try and get the forums more popular- so kudos for that, but I would say a couple of threads in the discuss anything is enough to do some form of competition etc., which would be perfect.

how many competitions do we have that the majority of forum members enjoy? Be honest, please..

Quite a lot lately, maybe you dont enjoy them but they have improved alot. Stop being constantly negative and childish. It doesn't make you look cool, it makes you look foolish. We both know what I am on about.

There was a variety of questions which must of been needed to make the Family Fourtunes game. :)

Yup they weren't necessarily based around the forum etc... But in order to make the Family Fortunes event Oli said it would be best suited in the Feedback Polls because more people would tend to vote, and we needed enough questions for each round, so that's why there is that many. Thought I'd clarify the reason for Lindsey as I did help :P

Maybe if you looked once in a while, you might find something.

Anyway, yeah, it's just a one-off competition that HabboxLive is hosting so I don't think it's much of a big deal tbh.

They were originally all posted in the Discuss anything forum, Oli thought it would be better for them to be put into feedback as there would be more votes or some other reasons which i don't know but i do agree they would be better there. Obviously if you read the thread you would realise the questions were there for a family fortunes event that will be happening on Sunday so the polls wouldn't be relevant to the forum or feedback. The reason there is so many threads i presume is there is a variety of questions. It's a one off doesn't happen all the time don't see a problem with it really :)

I'm sure Alkaz is a manager :S

How are you gonna play family fortunes with say 5 questions? I reccon theres enough!

i think if there was wayyy to many people wouldn't bother voting in them :P

HabboxLive staff were unsure where to post these polls (which they need answers to) so instead of scattering them around the forum in various places we decided that they would be better off in "Feedback Polls" as although they are not strictly "Feedback" they are Official Habbox Polls, so to me that seemed the most fitting place, so we moved all the threads into there.

If people read the promotional material, announcements, notice regarding these threads then you'd understand what they are for. They are simple polls that will be moved out of public view after the 4 day voting period.

Just to note the polls are to gather data for a game of "Family Fortunes" being run by HabboxLive

i do not care theres too many for me to even want to vote in, its effort, maybe 3-4 yeah.!!!!

There's nothing saying you have to vote, so if you don't want to, don't?

We respect there are a good few, hence the incentive offered to vote in them.

they're only polls, you only have to click, it's not like you have to give reasons for them. i don't see the problem with their being a lot :S

Nothing major, and I know Lindsey is Canadian but until the merge this is a UK fansite, so I think it would have been better if words were spelt the British way.. such as 'Favourite' not 'Favorite'

some of you are lazy. it doesn't take up too much space. i thought it was a good idea, getting the community involved can't be a bad thing. i voted in em all anyway, thanks for giving me something to do ;o

You know what it means, so why make a deal out of it?
And what has the merger got to do with anything?
So if it wasn't happening her spelling would be okay with you?

And this may be a UK fansite, but not everyone on this actual fansite is British... they are free to spell what ever they like... If the merger was to habbo.ca she wouldn't ask you to do this, regaurdless of this being an english fansite...
Catch a grip.

In all honesty, I think that's one of the most foolish suggestions I think I've ever seen on Habbox forum, ever.

I'm Canadian, I'll talk like a Canadian, I'll keep my Canadian culture while I'm here. If you don't like it, that's really just too bad :P

Actually she wasn't being lazy, and canadians spell it the way the UK spell it. When she was doing the polls she was using Google Chrome, which has an auto-dictionary. The auto-dictionary was telling her to change it to this, so she challenged her spelling and went for the Dictionaries version of the word 'favourite.' Little did she know Google Chrome is set to US-English by default. Doesn't mean she isn't spelling it's the UK way, it just means she didn't want to challenge the dictionary, and instead she challenged her own spelling....

And why do you care about spelling, English has evolved, a lot of people use slang in the UK which isn't used in America/Canada, and they don't care, they learn what it is, and just accept it. So don't just flame Lindsey over how she's spelt a word because of a stupid dictionary setting, i like you Jen, but seriously..... (Jen this isn't mainly aimed at you, mainly aimed at ANDROID ;))

I only posted the polls as Dinasaw said, because of a Game show marathon. I thought it would be a good idea to ask for your help, but after the complaints I got, I guess I should of done it by myself? Because I didn't want to be bias, and make all the top answers from me,

This is fairly rude, and I'm offended on this comment, It doesn't matter that I'm Canadian, I spell Favourite the UK way, but I wasn't sure the way you spelled it, but thanks.. ;/ And your comment is like saying , GET OUT THIS WEBSITE IS NOT FOR INTERNATIONALS !. I'm sorry to say, but it is for everyone, when the merge happens, what are you going to do? comment on everyones misspelling.. ;/

also, about the polls, I had to think about random Questions, so the game wasn't boring ect. I did 20 questions because if one poll wasn't enough results I would have many more to pick from. I did not have permission to post in the thread for all the people are wondering, Oli offered to move them into that thread So I would get more results.

I'm sorry, but I have to be on Lindsey's side on this. I'm also international and I spell favorite like so < It's not that I'm lazy, I'm actually offended that you called me lazy. It's just that it's the way I have spelled it my entire life. If you were on a US fansite I'm sure you would spell favorite like "favourite" and no one would care. It wouldn't make a difference to anyone, so why is everyone all upset about this?

And I'm sure that having the polls isn't changing anyone's life or making the forum bad at all. Lindsey needed help for the Gameshow Marathon and she did what she thought would be best. It isn't 'spam' because it wasn't pointless.

So what if I spell things different? Don't like it? I'm sorry but you need to get over it. ;/

I don't know who you think you are but here in the UK we warmly welcome foreigners so you have no right to tell people how to speak, if you have a problem please just keep it to your self.
So if ne1 wnts to spell diffrntly let dem be cos we don't care ;)

Just because this is a UK fansite that doesn't mean people have to spell words the British way. Who actually cares how you spell the word 'Favourite' :S

You misunderstood her post, she was talking about the people who said there were too many polls
LOL mike, "catch a grip", classic! :D

I voted in them all, didn't take me that long to do either.

So you're all pretty much arguing over the way people from outside the UK spell different words? Who cares if this is a UK fansite? We're all human beings and we have a right to use this site, if they want to spell words how they please then let them do it. There has been international users on this site for years and now you feel like you want to tell them to get out? They can't exactly change the way they speak and spell things. American, Canadian, British whatever - who cares what we spell like, can you understand what it says? Yes? Well shut up then, don't argue about it.

I'm talking about the people who kept saying that she was 'spamming' up the polls. Spam is something that is pointless and that is repeated over and over. These polls were not pointless, although they were repeated. They all had a point. I'm mainly just upset that people are sitting there telling me how to spell certain words simply because I live in a a different country. It's stupid.

TBH THIS MAY BE A UK FANSITE BUTTT HABBOX CATERS FOR UK AND INTERNATIONAL USERS.
WHO CARES THE WAY INTERNATIONAL USERS SPELL WORDS LIKE FAVORITE OR FAVOURITE OR HOW EVER YOU SPELL IT. THE POLLS ARE GONNA BE USED FOR AN A RADIO EVENT SO YEH *REMOVED*. AND BTW THIER NOT LAZY THEY CAN SPELL THE WAY THEY WANT

Edited by Nicola (Forum Super Moderator): Please do not be rude to other forum members

Habbox may just support a UK fansite at this moment in time. But that does not mean users from around the world cannot join up and work for the website. If they wish to spell like they spell in their country, then it isn't a major problem. Everyone makes spelling mistakes, we are not all perfect after all.

There may be many polls but there is a reason for that. You do not have to vote or view for them if you do not wish, it's not going to happen on a daily basis. Like it has been said before in this thread it's a "one off".

Also Does this mean that, after the merge were allowed to post words that are from our country? ;S , because that is what your saying..

what the ****?
i was being sarcastic when i said +rep to android. i'm not petty enough to care about spelling. i said the ones talking about there being too many polls were lazy and they didn't have to do it. i thought maybe the "i thought it was a good idea, getting the community involved can't be a bad thing. i voted in em all anyway, thanks for giving me something to do ;o" part would show i thought it was well done, obviously not lmao..... have canadians ever heard of sarcasm:S

Woah sorry for causing offence :l just my opinion - so am I allowed to speak spanish everywhere now - was just saying my opinion, which last time I checked was allowed..

No lindsey, the reason I mentioned after the merge is because habbox will be international.

And whoever thought jen wasn't taking the piss needs help.
