yes congrats @Daltron; !
congrats! especially daltron since he's on here. had a look through some of them.
choi has got some nice rooms, and seems like he builds out of leisure.
matt2205 only saw a wired game which was kinda cool but nothing to write home about.
bored_1 i couldn't find any rooms with furni in, bar one which looked like a junk room.
daltron i remember his habbox game room which was nice, had a couple of other cute (though small) rooms.
hawaii5.o i couldn't find any rooms, but apparently he used to own the saw, which if i remember was well done.
no offence but theres about 3 people in there that can't build for ****
never seen bored_1 or daltron build a single room, looks like they have been added based on recommendations alone.
BAW slowly morphing into another flop elitist circlejerk like RBI
good luck

None are no where near as good as what you'd expect for a BAW member. They should be elite, not "oh that rooms small and cute"

nothing special whatsoever. all small and not ideal at all for mass consumption as BAW is supposed to be. smaller rooms are much easier to make look good.
see my basement room, everybody recommend me for BAW
http://puu.sh/8TSKV.png
actually now that there are steps i can edit it
here's bored_1's best room
http://puu.sh/8TSZz.png
honestly, it's like fansites, guardians and any other special group. the loudest voices and the longest tongues get preferential treatment and are allowed to produce things that others could do better.
wonder how much of a say jendro got in this. doesn't seem like a lot.
@Jendro; are u happy with these mongs tarnishing your name
For all those criticising me that is fine, you are entitled to do so as I have in the past with season 1 BAW members.
During RBI I was contributing a lot until the elitist grouping became apparent and staff recognised my efforts originally. I was also recommended by several people as someone easy to work with, generally positive and staff were happy to approach me and give me this chance.
My rooms are small because I am not rich, obviously I will be building bigger rooms under the strict guidance of Jendro who I expect will be teaching me a thing or two anyway.
I look forward to being criticised more as I understand a lot of people are not happy with me being picked and that is fine. I hope I can do the Habbox community justice.
why is it that users are being cherry picked from the RBI team when this BAW was supposed to be moving away from that. we're going in circles, let some new blood have a go!
not being rich is fine and I know the feeling but the problem here is that how are other users that haven't been part of building groups in the past supposed to get into this group. it's weird. idk
not doubting that people will rise to the challenge but this group will most certainly be spearheaded by the one or two users who actually do build regularly.
yeah this is true. lot's of people can be creative and yet not have a lot of furni to show it off but good luck to all builders

if someone is crap with room designs when they're given stuff to make then surely staff will see this and replace them
they wont thoughQuote:

Good luck matt?
So wait BaW members are voted for by other BaW members? idgi :S I've seen some v.nice rooms from Jendro, Hawaii and Daltron too (i don't know the others). Not everyone is able to keep a room once they build it for a specific purpose or whatever and have to sell furni first before working on another room, so i don't think you can judge just based on the rooms they currently have.
baw members are picked out by jendro i presumed, though what daltron has said makes it sound like staff may have pushed for him to be part of the group.
it'll be hard to validate each member as these are all group projects, i personally didn't have a problem with the rooms built previous anyway as i'm not a great builder. what i will be looking out for is bad maze design, be it wired flaws, game design, creativity or little things like short queues.
though we are not entitled to it, i think what a lot of us want is to see the reason behind the picks, be it room screenshots or ideas provided. sadly a lot of user created stuff on habbo is all done behind the scenes now, it pisses people like me off who have no clue (or maybe a bit of dignity) of how to go about getting staff approved projects. i'd have liked to see jendro go on forums like this and on the client advertising for proof of what we are capable of.
however maybe i'm going about it the wrong way, and that opportunist people like me shouldn't be the ones to help. people that spend their time on habbo creating rooms for fun should be picked out first, there is no good way to go about it.
as far as i'm aware, jendro is allowed to submit people who he thinks is capable of being a member and then possibly staff do the rest.
well I didnt know a habbo player decided on the rest of the team
what a load of oh-youre-my-friend-and-i-like-you-bollocks
well done guys!
Even people who haven't built quality rooms in the past still have the ability to do so. The nature of Builder''s Club enables people to express themselves. Obviously someone who has to buy furni with credits is 9/10 times going to design a room inferior to someone with BC, who is able to purchase unlimited furni at no cost. I won't judge until I see the finished products.
Well done to those who made it into the group :] I would have loved it! Mabye another time :p
Hey!
First of all, I'd like to welcome the new team :) Although it's completely different from the previous team (given that I'm not familiar with some of the new members yet), I'm sure we'll be doing fine! Because the previous team set a high standard, we'll have to aim higher! Nonetheless, this does not mean that we have to work in an elitist way. Perhaps it would be nice to have some of our projects more out in the open, so that everyone can give feedback - with, or without the 'BAW' badge.
And indeed, I can give mere recommendations after I get a preliminary list from staff, but it's staff who eventually decides.
Thanks guys! And feel free to give more thoughts about the BAW project! It's far from perfect, and I'm very open-minded :) Let's hope that those who are in control of the project are as well. (For now I know we can't make the groups bigger either, we've already tried with the previous team. Nonetheless, external people are always welcome to help out!)
Jendro
Disappointing that the majority of members don't seem to have any rooms currently that you can visit to see how they build! guess we will just have to wait and see!
i disagree. frankly, if you dont make rooms then you dont like building. if you dont like building, you really shouldn't be in BAW. i hope the new team works out and it isn't a repeat of the old team (where certain members did nothing at all).Quote:

Welcome guys! Look forward to seeing so great rooms, once again. :)
Guys i would like to put it out there. Who would you like to see in as a BaW member?
All i see are negative comments about the new ppl that have picked.
Just curious to see your thoughts.
Also what would you say would be a fair way to pick new members?
I think i got BAW because of my limited involvement with RBI. I think i made RBI for my old Help Desk, it was pretty good, but not that popular. It got me into RBI. IDK how else i got accepted, i didn't know anyone from the previous team really, so none of them would have suggested me. I never asked nor applied for it and the first time i spoke to KitchenNinjette was when she emailed me to offer me a spot on the team. I am looking forward to using the features BC has to offer to show off it's possibilities, and see what we can make out of it. I do have a lot of empty rooms, but they haven't always been empty! sorry, but i am poor so i have sold all my rooms for creds for HC. I hope my contributions will speak for themselves. Going to be a good season for BAW!

And before people come in with "well we cant afford to make build builds" - Well, that's unlucky then isn't it? You obviously don't have a passion for building like BaW members should. If you have a passion for it you could easily spare £10 or so to get a few credits or even builders club? It's not that much money for something you like doing, so theres not really an excuse.
thanks for shedding some light on how people are picked though, i don't think a lot of us realised that the majority of the decision is done by staff. shame because i still think the staff's view of the hotel is very limited, and people like jendro are more likely to know/look around the hotel/fansites to find good examples of room making.
can you post screenshots of someQuote:

totally agree. if you can't make a good room on your own, i don't see how you can work well in a group. instead of picking seemingly random people, Kitchen should ask people to submit rooms to show their skill. it seems crazy to me to pick people for a room building group without first having looked at the rooms they are able to make.Quote:

Also why is it staff picking? I think since they have intrusted Jendro to be like the "lead builder" he should get to pick his team and then if he picks someone staff utterly hate then they can veto him.Quote:
