Overiding Xs Cannot Play In Events! // Also no weddings Tonight

[MissAlice]

Some good points Alice, but I think that what most people don't agree with are the privelidges that allow guest room over rides.

Surely, if there is an X event (when they are most likely to need the over ride for guest rooms) then they could just have a VIP badge?

I'm not convinced VIP badges is a way forward, if anything Habbos would be quick to complain that X's cant be kicked. Something else for the community to complain about, yes?

It's also a lot of hassle for staff in my opinion. If X's are running an event that takes place in guest rooms, should only those taking part be given VIP? NO. We all know that things go wrong, you could be running an event, when the hotel goes on maintenance or an X doesn't show up for whatever reason. At that point you have to call on another X to lend a hand, I've been in that position and have been very grateful that an X had no problem getting into the room to help the event go with a swing. Messing about with giving badges just for events wouldn't work in my opinion.

No Wedding Tonight


Not Surprised About That


The Hallway Riots Worked Tho

yep and i created them

I'm glad Lost_witness has did this, it does give x's a fair chance, without abusing the over-ride power, I also believe that the new selections of X's were MOSTLY bad, due to poor application layouts, I mean a 400 essay explaining why you deserve to be an X hardly shows that you have the potential to help 100s of habbos each week..
There's a few new x's I won't mention, that I feel strongly that they shouldn't be x's.
Since redtiz left, the X program has gone down hill, 0rca needs to enforce new testing methods on applicants to show their skills in helping, not their english writing skills!
The over-ride power is for emergency uses, in such cases as full welcome lounge, safety spa, habbo gardens, or X event rooms, the X's powers should be limited to a certain extent to ensure all habbos get a fair input.

Having an X program was a mistake on its own. It is separating those who "think" they can help versus those who "know" they can help. Limiting those who feel they have the dedication and time for it.

Also, picking "popular" or really well-written applications to be a potential X is damn right low and unacceptable. I feel that even the most popular Habbos can't provide the same assistance as the ones who are not popular and were around long enough to know right and wrong. I feel that to be insulting because the "connection" between the staff and yourself gives you a major boost in the applications which enables you to be accepted but be nothing then a power abuser.

As for the over-ride feature, that is a crappy feature and should have never been introduced because it is only ruining the best part of Habbo - FUN, oh wait, Habbo never intended fun, it was supposed to be money-based for everything. :eusa_wall

[Minstrels]

On the contrary, the X's do host events, once in a blue moon. Hey, why not just enable their room override every once in a blue moon!? Wow, logic > Habbo! Yeah the idea of just those rooms being overriden is good, however they won't do that, since they don't have the power to (yet).

The X system was doomed to fail by the way they put it out, but they can recover it. Mind you, they'll probably drop it once they've realised it was a failure just like the Hobba program.

You saw me standing alone...

I totally agree, and also Habbo strongly points out that X's get no rewards what so ever, and are 'volunteers', most people these days apply for the attention, badge, and over-ride. IrJen, Rivalry, JustEm, CHA!NGANG, Boxiel, all had strong bonds with staff, which I believe helped them throuugh the applications, the layout of the applications should be changed, and the new x's should get examined on their so called "Xing skills"

Yes, but that's also saying if you want to be a X give bad attitude towards staff and don't be friendly to them, but also being a friend of a means that staff member knows there ability and skills so they dont really need to be tested on ''Xing skills'' Although the idea is good, but they shouldnt be judged on there friendship or just generally knowing them they should act like they didnt know them but at the end of the day that is hard.
Put this situation in the eyes of the staff members, getting complains and not knowing what to do one way or another they are going to upset some type of people and its hard to come up with a way to resolve this.

Being a friend of a staff is like "Yeah, this person doesn't deserve a prize, they cheated.", "Let's go make a game room, give me some credits and I will host it." and/or "I want to be a Habbo X, help me out."

If you normally watch how people talk to staff, you could tell they are there just to get closer to the opportunity of becoming something or getting something. They get closer and closer each time.
