Habbos.net - Phew!

@ Mad,

On vbulletin default software installation you mean?

Yeah, all vBulletin forums are set to a cookie session of 900 seconds, unless changed.

@ MhzT,

Having timeout set to an hour just means that people don't have to log in as often

It's much easier to tick the "Remember Me"

Yeah one bad advantage is someone messaging them or replying to the owners thread and he ain't even online just the session says he is.

I wouldn't say we're misinforming anybody. Firstly, staff aren't concerned by numbers and are interested solely in content. There's no value in having 5 million posts if they're all non-constructive, afterall!

Having timeout set to an hour just means that people don't have to log in as often and it makes administration easier too. Much less time spent searching for people in admin cp... yes, I'm that lazy. We'd orginally changed it to see how we compared to another forum and after a positive response from our users, it stayed that way.

Habbos and HxF have very different purposes and audiences but I shalln't go into that, hehe.

Thanks for the comments.

Different audience I agree. Purposes I am not sure. I think both are forums to cover Habbo and other areas that interest Habbo users.

Whos to say what time is the right time to set it at. Maybe Habbos just wanted to know on an hourly scale as opposed to a fifteen minute one. I don't think users sign up specifically because of how many members are on each forum at a given time as long as their enough for a sense of community. Habbos and Habboxforum have very different purposes in my opinion, i use both for different things.

Yes thats true there is no "right" length of time or anything of that sort.

Ah right cool.

And yeah the reason we put it at 15 mins is due to messaging admin/smod/mod thinking hes there then ending up waiting till the next day when you could have pmed another admin/smod/mod that was active.

[CHA!NGANG]

Our staff team is a little smaller than yours so that's not really a problem. Our users know that the best way to get support is to ask on the boards and that's what they do .

Habbos is still more popular and it's a much nicer looking forum along with nicer members who aren't so rude to everyone.

Lol tom, divide habbox's staff list in 5 and you have yours

[Bobu]

um dis this a pile of **** lmao
there is no set rule on what the timer must be and i don't see the point why they need to "INFORM" anyone of anything it's their site they can run it how they please, although i do sense that you feel the need to "expose" habbos.net as you see them as a threat, face it, their forum looks better, has nicer members, and all the staff are on it. oh and let me not forget official on like every hotel

PLUS THIS DON'T GIVE SH....................'''ITTY INFRACTIONS FOR *** ALL

Habbos.net is no treat they get half the traffic HabboxForum does.

And yes, If HabboxForum sets their cookies to last 3600 seconds (1 hour) it'd be x3/4 the users on Habbos.net

Fact also is HabboxForum.com based on the UK hotel, Habbos.net is globally? and it's barely trafficked.

[Scarcely]

Meh, tbh this is the only forum I've got an account on and use (habbo)
I just always thought it was the most popular one..
What with being the main fansite for rare values.
