    I am all for scrapping banning members for small things. When Thybag was very popular and someone was generally being a little beggar, I PM'd them and reasoned. Seemed to work well for me, not sure why Habbox take the lazy, anti-social way of banning when you can solve more problems with a friendly, down to earth message. Looking at the complaints forum and even the feedback forums, I see AGMs and Managers talking to people as if they are working in an office, earn £50k a year and aged 30+.
    Exactly, it's forgotten that it's a Habbo Fansite and more of a big company.

    People who genuinely want to stay on the forum will take a hint when they are warned or see their posts with red writing all over them, its when they don't take a hint, get punished and kick up a fuss is when the system appears to have holes. Personally, I do tend to take the "lazy mans way" and put red writing on people's posts, but rarely use infractions or warnings in the hope they'll take the hint. If they do, problem solved. If not, they're clearly here to be a nuisance and should be removed.



    Speculation is a part of life, makes it fun The sun would be out of business without it!

    In all seriousness, if management posted threads to explain why people were fired, 90% of the time there will be people making threads saying "THIS ISNT RIGHT YADDA YADDA YADDA" which, to be frank, someone who has had to make an executive, and occasionally difficult, decision does not need. Decisions are decisions, whether they're for the good or not will be seen in the months following. If it turns out be a bad decision, so be it, its life, it happens.

    Personally, I think they should hire me as AGM for all the bloody hard work I put into articles But I like my little group, and I can't take more many jobs tbh, hence me being comps manager for a full week

    Compliment from Catszy?! I truly am honoured, you don't see many of them these days!
    However if people like you were to do detailed unbiased reports on the whole issue then I think it would explain a lot. Speculation and playing waiting games hurts HxF & it's reputation.

    I do hope management pick up on this post - it's very negative and infact more negative than my post about the ione Gifts. I also didn't write this up for HxF, it is based on the HHGS Reformal Plan which has already started anf is going well.

    I learned the hard way that caveats, technicalities, voting, etc is very very very hard to run on a forum. The complexity and interwovenness makes the system crash. I learned that with the council. And no, its not because they weren't given enough power. The Council couldn't function simply because of the complexity and the technicalities. All these restrictions and stuff would not work. I'm not saying that just as an opinion to shoot it down, I've seen it firsthand.

    There were reasons I had to make the council as complicated as I did, and I won't go into them as that's neither here nor there, but I can tell you that all the complications and technicalities definitely took away from the effectiveness of the council.
    This is a simple idea though. The council has no say in top management discussions, the council is held subject to what management chooses to do. True, management do and should have the ultimate final say but this way it would make it harder for management to escape the popular idea/motion. The way the council failed was sad, call me gloomy but I just knew it would fail & I don't think it wil get anywhere in the near future.

    They won't escape popular notions, I resurrect them from the dead in the council reports so they have to do it

    *Head hurts* I believe Habbox is a Forum and not a Country that needs a Government :eusa_whis

    We already have the Habbox council, so why do we need to go further into it and make it all complicated?

    Habbox is a forum true, however it's governed like a dictatorship. The council was a failure and is ignored by management, I haven't really seen any epic changes made by the council - which is rather sad. It also is simple, you have top management with one elected member of it.

    The council doesnt work imo. Nothing dealt with there turns into reality

    The council is a good idea and theorectically should work but when put into affect it doesnt seem to do much

    OMGZ DICTATORSHIP LOL. If you don't like it, find another forum. No one is forcing you to come on this forum. If you stick to the rules, you'll be fine, if you want the rules to change, work and get to a position where you'll be in a position to do so.

    It's only a forum.
    goodbye.

    I never said your comments in the Ione gifts thread was negative, Just my opinion and it's not even meant to be negative i'm just saying what I think and that happens to come across as being negative to you which isnt my intent

    You find out anyway, if you PM them or chat to the on Habbo or the chat

    I don't see why Habbox feel the need to hide such information :S
