General Management Takeover!

[Samantha]

Since it's now over I felt a feedback thread would be the best way to get member's opinions on it if they were there.

Unfortunately, my feedback won't be 100% positive and I think some improvements could be made next time if you do another one. Firstly, it seemed rather unplanned? I know it's a takeover, but I thought that you could have some ideas you wanted to discuss with the members, get their view on it and see the way forward - I think this is a must for next time, you really need to have the members get behind you. I know you can't reveal too much, but you don't really have to, questions could be as vague as what features would you like to come to Habbox, and be as specific as do you think this VIP is as attractive as this one etc. (the last one is poor so I don't expect that one).

The quiz wasn't too bad, quick and to the point, but it did seem like it was something to fill in the gap where no one was asking questions . I think members got an insight into a lot of things as least which we/they wanted! However, it was at the end what I really noticed, and I won't end on a bad note as I do have some positive things to say, but Chris? You said you were doing nothing to gain and keep new members really? As a General Manager that should be one of your main priorities, as if Habbox isn't gaining or maintaining new members then you don't have a job/volunteer job.



Overall, it was good to see you acting on feedback, actually allowing us to see what you're doing and what could be happening in the future. You got through a lot of questions although the room got raided. Hopefully though you'll take some of the feedback on board for future reference - I'd like to see another one though.

I remember there used to be a meeting for staff every quarter, perhaps this could be done for the General Management takeover or every couple of months? All the AGMs got stuck in tonight and were ready to answer whatever and they did, that's a start at getting to know more .

I kinda liked the fact there wasn't a theme to the questions and we could just whatever we want without being restricted to certain topics, was more interesting. Although I did notice a few times where people's questions were missed, but it was a busy room in all fairness

Oh yeah, I like that too! I wouldn't want it restricting - I mean if there's a break where no ones really asking anything they could suggest something/ask a question themselves. If that makes sense?

I feel like I missed a couple of questions there. The text was going up so fast for me and it was hard to keep up at times. If I did actually miss your question, drop me a vm and I'll answer it there

Some interesting ideas were brought up, some already in discussion now. The takeover will be a recurring thing, although I am not sure how often yet. Every month or two would be good.

I like the idea of the General Management Takeover and think it could be an extremely beneficial part of Habbox. Admittedly this one wasn't organised as well as it could have been but that's understandable as it's the first one.

I completely agree with Sam's point about General Management asking US some questions; this is General Management takeover, not a Habbox Community one! I believe the original idea behind the takeover was so that GMs could get some feedback on upcoming ideas as well as hear what the community would like to see done in general. More feedback on upcoming ideas next time please!

I arrived late so this may have been discussed before I got there, but was the topic of Christmas discussed? I was surprised there wasn't more discussion on what the community would like to see in the way of Christmas events. Recurring events can run dry and I would have thought you would want to hear some fresh ideas. Perhaps not though.

I was also shocked to see that @Wispur; did not have any plans for attracting and retaining new members. I'd like to see a plan put forwards for how we can attract new members. Even if it's as simple as popping into some other rooms on the client from time to time and luring people in through competitions, telling them about upcoming big events, etc. However that seems impossible as at least two of the three General Managers hardly come on the client at all. I think this is an extremely important part of your job and any excuses such as the classic "I don't have time" are pretty poor. Perhaps Laura can be slightly excused for not coming on as much as she is completely content-based and I do see Sho round a fair bit which is nice, but I'd like to see Chris start coming online more please. No excuses!

Finally, can we have a summary of all the things that were discussed in the takeover posted after each one? Some people may not have been able to attend for some reason but would still like to see the results.
