    Hobbas may of, but it's the age limit I was referring to. Back in the day the limit was 16 and they were encouraging people to apply, why?! Because the hotel was near empty, they needed a way to keep users interested. The general gist of being a Hobba relies on moderating the hotel, yep?! Sure. But the idea of having young users as Hobbas was to keep them interested and something to ultimately strive for. They could've quite easily only hired older Hobbas with the same result (maybe even more) but they didn't, it was young user interaction.

    As for the thread in whole, Hobba's aren't useless but aren't essential either, they may be in your eyes but not in mine, good day.

    Let's see how it goes from here..

    They still have the basic powers that allow them to moderate habbo and they still have the same duties as they did in the past. I don't know were your coming up with this "there only here to help new habbos" rubbish as thats not all there here for. They are here to moderate habbo aswell, they have all the moderation tools they need. They've been stripped of one or two things, most of which were not essential to them anyway.

    Although you've claimed you have no grude against hobbas you also stated "I'm sick of the inconsistent equilibrium of the bans I receive." Which suggests to me your views are biast because of a few bans you've recieved.

    Obviously Sulake see hobbas as an essential part of their moderation setup or they'd have removed them by now, yet on certain hotels they've started recruiting new ones. Would they do that if they had any plans to remove them in the near future? I think not.

    I meant Moderator as in those with Mod- type names. I'm talking about volunteers with the same amount of power as the "Mod-" people, not Hobbas who volunteer to "moderate" the hotel, just a little misunderstanding.

    Try checking a recent Hobba booklet for the "newb" comment. It stated there that their main initiative was to help those new to the hotel, second initiative was helping those being harassed. Moderators deal mostly with experienced players.

    They've been stripped of a lot of things, it's because of this that I doubt their effectiveness now, sad but true in my eyes.

    Nah I don't have a grudge. My opinion was bias but I never denied that, I have nothing against them, I just don't see them as a necessity. The bans made little to no sense, so I'm thinking something might be wrong, not launching an all out assault on all them. It's more of a "concern" than a "grudge".

    Essential? If they were truly essential the hotel wouldn't run without them, but you fail to see there have been times with no hobbas/all debadged and the hotel ran fine. They can be useful, but never essential.

    Hey, I don't know if they can be as effective with recent restrictions, I just don't know. Either way I can sleep well at night, life goes on.

    For the record, all that is directed towards those with Mod- names, not Hobbas who moderate the hotel.

    With these,

    Grudge = A deep-seated feeling of resentment or rancor

    It may showcase my dislike for them, but it's not an utmost feeling of resentment, I've pointed out Hobba's good points out in the past and my thoughts of those things haven't changed. Positive comes with the negative, I have taken an insight on both, and yes I'm still bias in this thread.

    I meant to say I have nothing against them personally, not nothing against them at all.
