    I HOPE NOT ;'(
    I like this idea, but it would be total carnage. AND SEEING AS IM THE ONLY MOD IN ENTERTAINMENT NOW, i'd be exhausted trying to edit everything. I was getting pissed of last night, and that was only one edit, it takes AGES to edit stuff!

    A moderator is the same as Articles Staff, Rare Values Staff and Competitions Staff etc, they're the same as all staff so you can hardly use the management "payment" to back your case up. Firstly, because moderators aren't managers and secondly you shouldn't do it for the praise but for the enjoyment or to pass your free time. If you get annoyed then obviously being a moderator wasn't the best job for you.

    Not really, Moderators are more important and get criticised for what they do more than any other department on Habbox. They are incharge of looking after the community and therefore are in more contact with the community than any other department on the site (because obviously a forum department is bigger than a site department in terms of what you see of Habbox). There has to be some amount of praise in the job you do, constantly being criticised for your actions won't exactly make you happy... Which therefore means you won't find as much enjoyment and will therefore mean it's a waste of your free time If you get annoyed, then you talk to your boss (whoever that is) and see if there's a way of changing the error. You are allowed an opinion on what you do or how something is done, as long as you back it up and aren't incredibly rude and belittling about it.

    How on earth is the forum bigger than Habbox.com :S Let me just use Rare Values Reporters as an example. Thousands of people daily go on habbox.com just to look at rare values not much else and don't use the forum. Just because you use the forum often and maybe not the Habbox Site as much you can't assume that everybody does the same because the truth is they don't. There will be people who just check articles, there will be people who just use the forum. All staff are in the same level, unless they're senior/super staff or what not.

    Hardly, because Moderators are pivotal to the site, additionally, Articles don't get slated for writing articles, which takes less time than moderation

    Dj's get thanked by listeners

    RVR's only have to report on what they see in the hotel.

    Moderators do their jobs, and a lot of the time for at least 6 hours a day, and just get **** off the members.
    PM me for help.

    Because forum moderators directly work with members and users, while no-one knows which rare value staff did what value and no-one really cares. If a value is wrong, the whole department is usually criticised, while if a moderator does something, obviously the one moderator is to blame unless it appears that the moderator was given orders by a guide, then the whole department is criticised.

    It's common sense and kinda obvious the forum department is larger than any other department on Habbox. They're seen more, they're discussed more, they do more work as far as members can see and have to keep to more rules and regulations. The only departments getting close to interactiveness with members are the articles and news departments. Coldplay seems to understand it too, moderators are called upon more, while an article staff member just has to write an article and leave it be, same with most other departments. The forum department have to be on alot, look after alot more things and do alot more things. Kinda obvious

    As someone just said to me, you're taking a "typical AGM view on everything."

    If you think RVRs don't get a lot of hassle then oh dear... They get it 10x worse than Moderators. I can say that after working in both departments for quite some time.

    If onde moderator gets criticised then a lot of the time they actually deserve it for not thinking before they make a decision. Like I said I think I can make quite a decent judgement that other staff get just as much hassle as Moderators because I have worked for a number of departments. Sometimes I see DJ's getting singled out, in fact I see it more than I see Moderators. If you're method was right then surely the HabboxLive Team are the most essential to Habbox because they run a whole site by themselves.
