Another X rant - But hope X's read this!

[krazyhouse]

True.. what is the point of them using their powers in private rooms? Especially contests...

Soz i will press the disable overide button?

Think before you post!

[Kotu]

A lot of Habbo X's do not attend these kind of events regularly but there are certain Habbo X's that attend a lot of events, but from my own perspective, I think it's a positive thing for them to be there interacting and socialising with the community they've signed themselfs up to assist.

[Just-One]

Okay it's fairly obvious you dislike most, if not all Xs, and yet you don't seem to have a valid reason other than the fact we all have room override and most in your opinion abuse it.

When X-Fest took place which wasn't that long ago, in fact it was only July, it was important that Xs could enter the events taking place, to run these events. The Habbo community would be sure to complain if we didn't show up, right? Especially after hitting go many many times, imagine the frustration then? By the way there will be more events, but I can't say any more than that, and to remove our privilege would cause havoc for staff and for everyone involved no doubt.

There are things that go on in the background that you never see, maybe you haven't even thought about. Just because an X isn't in a public room X'ing doesn't mean they aren't fulfilling their role. So please don't assume that is the case. Since I became an X last November I have met hundreds of new Habbos, and in many cases have left the Welcome Lounge to spend time with a new Habbo in one of my rooms, where the atmosphere is much calmer, no flooders and fewer distractions. Whilst in my room guiding a new Habbo, more often than not someone will call in who may also want to ask me something or even want my help. All this keeps me busy and I could easily spend anything up to two hours or more in my room just helping. We only have to commit to 15 minutes.

Now imagine I had wanted to attend one of the recent events, and I had just spent two hours helping and guiding several Habbos, do you honestly think I shouldn't attend? We have the right to be players too. Would you honestly deny me the opportunity to take part in an event?

A few weeks back, I was in a trade room, I love trading and met a very obnoxious Habbo who shall remain nameless, who was abusive towards me for spending time in a trade room, this Habbo told me to get back to the Welcome Lounge as he felt that's the only room I should spend time in. What gave him the right to even think that's all I am allowed to do is beyond me, I didn't argue with the idiot as he probably had a pea size brain We are players, we have every right to take part in events around the Hotel in the same way as you do, we sometimes just have less time than you to do so.

Finally, if any specific Xs are abusing the privilege of room override then staff will be aware of it and they will be dealt with.

Before I forget, the last event I went to was Dance Trance, now wasn't that 2005?

Hey,

There has bbeen a number of posts since I last checked this out, therefore I have a feeling MissAlices posts sums up what everyone has said so I shall reply to this on (Oh lucky you ).

Well, to be perfectly honest most X's are my friends and I do like them, aswell as the Safety X's, however when I feel something is not fair I speak my mind. I don't hate anyone, and hating X's due to them having over-ride is a bit obsured

Regarding events, as I said, if you need to do X fest Emma should do what Callie did and issue a temporary VIP badge for private room over-ride, and public room over-ride should be the only permission granted. I see a number of X's have replied to this stating they do not goto every event, and as I said in my first post, I am not attacking the whole group as MOST X's are decent enough to be fair on all Habbo's and not abuse their position by going to every single event. For example, Missalice, Nymrod, and Kardan as they have clearly stated in this post, and I respect your positions and appreciate the consideration you give us all! (And I am sure I speak on behalf of everyone with the same opinion as myself), however there are also a number of X's who have been to every single event, one X said that no X has been to every single event, yet claims they haven't been to every single one too so I am unsure how you can base this on?

I understand Emma told users not to goto all 3 rooms with the famous celebrity in it, and thats great, however this streets competition is about gaining personal points and earning badges. Habbo's are unable to goto every single one, yet a certain number of X's do which is what I find absolutely unfair. They SHOULD be permitted to events, but they shouldn't abuse their powers (Which is what I call it) going to EVERY event. Going to one or two is not power abuse, as thats probably what a normal habbo who goes to the room 30mins before the event does, however X's going to every single one when they start, the other day an X went in 15minutes late.. its unfair and thats why I have brougt this topic up.

Barmi, your post is 100% true, and I think with Hobba's they deserved to be allowed to events as they worked pretty much all the time they went on Habbo and did a god damn more work than X's, and yet still Hobba's didn't goto EVERY event. They went to the odd one or two. This may not affect you, and hey its not like I am going to get sleepless nights over this either, I am saying my views because I feel it is unfair and think something should be done about it.

Regarding Safety X's, yes I agree with your community manager, Safety X's are a pointless group which X's probably were capable of doing themselfs anyway. Regarding someones comment about them not being able to work in the Safety Center, heh its never full and if it is full, then all they have to do is repeatedly press "GO" till there is space, which won't take long, and do what we all have to do! It is not an emergency or priority they are in there, because more than likely other Safety X's are there already helping.

I hope I have answered most things in this post, didn't expect to be writting an essay on a Saturday night.

I hope you understand my view point, I respect alot of X's are fair and do a damn good job at it, but many do not, especially the Safety X team as a whole which the X team could manage themselfs anyway.

I think its acceptable if they wait untill the room is full, then nobody really missed out on a chance of getting in.

But, if they get there straight away, thats unfair because there place could be taken by someone who dont always get into events, and X's will only have to wait, what seconds? to go in.

Re-read my last post as I explained all this. I think they should goto events, but not every single one which they have been doing or entering 15mins late.

Sorry this made me giggle a little what if I just spent 2 hrs working on some of my college work does that earn me the right to get a cool badge to have room overide? nope don't think so the fact is YOU made the choice to spend this time helping which means if you were a normal Habbo it would have been pretty much impossble to get in to the event now I don't really take part in events but you have freewill if you want to spend your time helping people thats fair enough good on you well done ! but if this means your late for an event oh well ..

To wrap this up you seem like a nice person who cares about other habbos but seriously next time your late after helping lets say 10 habbos for 2 hrs or what ever times those habbos by 100 thats how many habbos are waiting to get in while you just click once and get in first time however I do think Habbo Xs are a good idea and I have seen them do some good work !

p.s oh yeh I agree with Just-one

Why thank you, you seem nice too

Well I'm glad I made you giggle

But I think you missed something, I don't abuse the privilege I have, I haven't been to one single event this year, and there will be many other Xs who can say the same, room override is a small perk we have, which isn't to be abused.

But at the same time, please don't forget we are players too, we are also entitled to take part in events, and if that means entering when the room is full, I don't see any real harm.

[bo$$]

Wow.. Alot of debating going on here x]

But heres another Noobie way of looking at it:

Say [in real life] your a homeless person and theres a big lineup outside a shelter. So there you are waiting and waiting, when finally your near the front. But then someone who is OBVIOUSLY better off than you, just walks into the place and takes all the remaining food and clothes, and leaves you with nothing...
Would that be fair?

I know that has NOTHING to do with Habbo but I think it's kindof the same thing.. Sorta.

Also:

Say your trying to enter some kind of event [such as .. I don't know.. A basketball shootout or some other sporting event] .. and your [once again] waiting in line to try and get a chance at the grand prize, when all of a sudden someone just comes out of no where, and go in front of EVERYONE and enters and wins the prize. Would that be fair after you just waited to enter and then someone who didn't even wait five minutes just went in and won? Personally.. I would probably be pretty angry. And these kind of have SOME relevance to this situation..


AND BTW... If it sounds like I know nothing about what I'm talking about.. Don
t flame me for it =]

Just-One,

Callie spent a hell of alot of time on the hotel in comparison to other staff members, this is most likely why she opted to hand out VIP badges to people to help with events such as the slumber party. Has it never occured to you that staff have better things to do with their out of work time as appose to sitting infront of their computer screen giving and retracting VIP badges?

Giving out badges and then taking them back is time consuming and staff already have tasks to be getting on with, sadly there is no superman (or woman) within Sulake and they would have to do this out of work time. Many of the staff don't wish to do extra work, it's like you coming back from work and choosing to program for your Spanish company. The fact is that X's already have the ability to overide and although you may obviously be against the fact, Habbo Staff / Sulake aren't going to change it if it means they save time and can get on with their real jobs.

Giving out VIP badges would only aid another argument, most likely that X's would then have 2 badges (VIP & X) as appose to just 1 badge. This would be "unfair". James, stop spitting your dummy out and that goes to anyone else who doesn't like it either. Nothings going to change and even if it were to, you would only have a hissy fit.

If you read my post, I didn't say you were abusing and said some X's were doing this and that I appreciate you don't.

You remind me an awful lot of someone who I speak to on MSN. Anyway, X's VERY RARELY do events therefore giving out certain users VIP badges and retracting them is hardly any work, think about how many emails they have to send emails and bans they send, adding 20 badges and removing them is hardly going to cause an issue to do once every 6 months. Sulake have already got hotels with over-ride in just public rooms, so there is deffinately reasons for those hotels to have it, and as the NL X said it was due to competitions and them not requiring the tools. If NL can do it, so can UK. I don't think anyone would mind X's getting a VIP badge once every few months for a speciail event, as it is required and will be removed.. at the moment its like you having a perm VIP badge which is unfair in competitions, read the guys above post about the football line scenario which is exactly what this is.

Don't accuse me of being a baby Easo, your the one complaining about me ranting too much and its affecting the Safety X's reputation. As I said, it would be much fairer being a Public room over-ride only, so why would I have a hissy fit if this happened?

I think your just upset Easo that I bring up good points which threaten the thing you abuse the most.

PS: Next time you want to pretend to be a newb, don't set your referer as Easo, kinda gives it away!
