Habbox Productions/Shows - What went wrong?

[Immenseman]

Jake you're forgetting that Leah knows people better than they know themselves. I made that mistake yesterday when I told her I didn't like someone and she made a point of noting that I don't know them - I was pretty sure I'd seen enough of them around to make an opinion but apparently I was much mistaken there, thank god she corrected me.

Silly me :eusa_wall

[Hecktix]

Would just like to say that its hard for nvrspk4 to be in the desk at peak times due to the timezones and stuff like that, he comes on quite late so if he turned up there wouldn't be many people there for him to talk to. Which is expected at like 3am when very few habbos inhabit the hotel :8

Fair point.
Nevertheless, a presence of General Management on Habbo would be good.

Unfortunately that can't be helped


oh & leah, I assure you MAD did not use Habbo around the time of Habbo Big Brother - this was near the end of MADs run as GM.

It's like with HxHD, clearly it was affected by the lack of need for Help Desks anymore and something was changed to coincide with this.. now look at HxHD - it's quite successful.

it's not successful, it's only ever staff or the regulars that are in with jakes occasional egfs and even then it's just petty little arguments or the annoying little ***** with that come in to bum each other, for serious.

I used to love productions but i can see what Leah and Jake are saying i don't think i would want to sit around for an hour watching people fool around.

what? i can sit in hxhd for an hour and that's exactly what i do, watch people fool around.

Glen-powers now productions manager. (Posted February 14th 2008) Glen-powers resigns from Habbox. (Posted March 5th 2008)

2 months my eyelash.

And let's not forget this.



I have nothing but negative memories of you as a manager. There was constant favouritism and some ongoing arguments within the department. Let's not forget the time you told Gjay to "read the effing script" and got banned for doing so, and I think that upset Gjay and some of the other staff. I reported you for that, and I got promoted from tree to prince - score!

lol i knew someone would bring up that last link. It has nothing to do with what you're talking about, does it? It's not really fair to use stuff against someone when it's nothing they're talking about. If he was worthy enough to be manager then why shouldn't he have that "title" ??. There's always gonna be favourtism wherever you go, it happens in hxhd atm. Someone says something you'll get a "stop being rude" when the other person is the aggressor, it's stupid. I took screenies of some staff swearing 'cause i'm sad like that and obviously it isn't acceptable from a manager but no offence to Leah, she had a racist term in her tags :X not having a go at you but if you're gonna hold that against Oli it isn't fair

There are events every day, HxHD, HxL will have party rooms for its shows.

and it's the same old people that come to them, same people who win. & thank god about HxL getting party rooms.

Thanks David
I know I ran Shows well so PriceTags stop criticising it, there was no 'glum' feeling in the Shows Department.. well apart from that time Vicky-Lou ran it for me for a month...

right lol you THINK you ran it well, maybe vicky-lou felt she ran it well too? no-ones allowed to criticise you but it's ok for you to?

Everyone has favourites, you can say you don't but you do. If someone called !x.xJakex.x! made a thread in feedback with an idea and the English and written communication was crap and then MissAlice made one with the same idea in fluent English people would listen to that one a lot more because she is a respected member of the forum. Merely an example.

I agree staff do have favourites on here but that's from all the bum licking that goes on. & if anyone denys any bumlicking too there's examples in loads of feedback threads with just "i agree" or "exactly" not mentioning names but it seems as though some people are only friends with others as they're the only people that will defend them all times. If you dunno who i'm talking bout then forget it but it's so obvious, the few people I can think of that will go against what their friends think because they disagree is you (not bumlicking, it's true), flyingjesus and geraint. Usually if someone goes against me I have this massive crowd that will jump in which seriously irritates me because then it looks like i'm the ring leader of everything that happens, as for staff when I said I didn't like the idea of Leah being Manager or whatever it was I got called a "*****" by one of them on msn which was probably fair enough but what ever happened to freedom of speech

I think the main problem has been highlighted by Jake.. and I think the problem highlighted has been a problem for Habbox for a while. This problem being that 90% of the time Habbox General Management don't use Habbo - I don't really blame them afterall they have a lot to do and of course are doing it off their own back. But sometimes they just don't understand what's going on which is a bit of an issue sometimes.

if you're trying to say they don't know what's going on hxhd, you're right. There's arguments and some of the staff are really ignorant. Some of them hardly ever go behind the desk to help and if anyone asks for help the staff are always be right back or probably just can't be bothered

You mean cus now the current owner goes in there a lot its alive n kickin?! That kind of pattern

because they don't half bum lick her.

The only people I see in HxHD a lot and I'm in there daily are:
Josh
Leah
Joe

There are others like me who are in there daily but I'd hardly say any one else is in there loads.

Ben is in there a lot and he's the only one i see even offering help.

seeing as you were too busy playing habbo big brother or something at the time then you don't know when ---MAD--- came in or not, he had a spell where he would visit the desk regularly, he even had his own casino.
It's always busy, thats like saying theres only 3 most of the time when that most certainly isn't the case.

so you're trying to say MAD only came into HXHD when habbo big brother was on? because that wasn't very long, convenient timing then


anyway i don't really know anything bout productions. I remember a show ages ago and i remember it being realllly popular, the entrance was usually on red even when people were in the main (if i'm thinking of the right thing). But when actually inside it was out of control and it just consisted of people being stupid and getting kicked from the room, but when nvr was there it was "well behaved" (except the odd rebels..). I'm not sure his exact position then as I wasn't using hxf at the time but it does kind of show that a bit more authority figures or being more strict i guess is needed for hxhd and would have been for these shows? Like Oli and Jake said, it would be a good idea if more "important" staff were there (and weren't acting immature ) to overview things and would keep some people under control
Like you say, habbox would be pretty crappy without their rare values so i guess that kind of shows it's important to have habbo involved more (well it is a habbo fansite) so the shows would be a good idea, worth a try and if you're saying it started failing maybe you just had the wrong people in charge?
or i could be on the completely wrong tracks here

[FlyingJesus]

There's always gonna be favourtism wherever you go

God I hope not lol

if anyone denys any bumlicking too there's examples in loads of feedback threads with just "i agree" or "exactly" not mentioning names but it seems as though some people are only friends with others as they're the only people that will defend them all times.

Exactly, I agree. Wonder who does that though strut wid big brow

Most of the time if I do see staff there they'll be afk, and if not they're just having conversations with regulars. I saw someone ask a fair few times earlier about "pixels" and what that's all about, and no-one helped her. Worse than that, I saw a certain habbo hotel user who's HxHD staff racially abusing some guy just because he was talking about the injustice in Palestine and he happened to disagree

[leah]

Well in that case it'd be useful probably if Leah was actually talking in there ever and not just afk dancing

This has deviated somewhat from the original discussion, let's move back to productions because I want to see more of Jack's hilarious posts

Tom, you're never in HxHD so you can't say i'm always afk dancing, I go in there a lot and spend some time looking at msn or on the forum. I never go behind the bar inactive, didn't realise that I was meant to be in the desk staring at the computer screen at all times, my mistake.

nice to see the hxhd manager come across nice and mature :eusa_clap



yes i would rather scroll something along then move the mouse and click a button. babe, you're making no sense especially when you don't know my laptop. i'll take a pic if you want :rolleyes:




if you had the capability of reading you'd understand i said they were the only three who were in there for hours. yes, scott also but i was under the impression he was banned. not that it actually stopped him due to the lack of control you have in hxhd.

Firstly, me immature? really? :rolleyes:
Also the fact that Scott returns to the desk after he is kicked everytime has nothing to do with the staff's control, He is kicked loads but he doesn't give up and it gets tiresome clicking his pixel, then kicking him and repeating this process over and over for sometimes hours.

also Jen, The desk is more social than for help now, if staff are ignoing people then i'd love to see evidence of this as it shouldn't be happening, I haven't seen this though. Staff are also entitled to being away aslong as they don't do it when behind the bar.
I hardly think agreeing with someone is "bum licking" maybe some people raise points that others were going to post so offering support really isn't bum licking.

You are immature.

And no offence darling but I'm sure it's not too hard to deal with Scott.. it's called PERSERVERANCE. It's not hard to press a button.

Ask Pleke... I used to kick him from HxHD constantly for HOURS. And I have no patience whatsoever so if I can do it you can :S:S:S:S

[leah]

Resulting to name calling now? :S
How can you possibly know? You've been in the desk twice in the last week and tried to get rehired? :S I and many others have kicked him for ages and it gets tiresome and he does not give up, im sure he would agree that he doesn't give up. But im sure scott and pleke are exactly the same person so would give up at the exact same time and all.

[Inseriousity.]

Test:Tube:Baby, 2 managers before Sammeth took it over again, was going to do a 'Little Red Riding Hood' and I did some of the script for that. It was actually quite fun and I think it would have interested people because it was given a twist to it (Little Red Riding Hood was a chav, the wolf was an emo... hehe, my idea. It's a modern take of it and has links to youth culture). That's just my opinion though and Mrs.McCall clearly didn't agree because he didn't go ahead with it. I suppose it was fair enough. He'd have had his reasons and there's no point crying over spilt milk.

HxTV was then going to be resurrected and I wrote a script for that. If I'd have been able to film it, it might have worked but unfortunately, the workload for that department was huge (writing script, filming script etc) and there was just no work being done by the HxTV staff so that went under. Productions closed with it.

As for HxL and HxHD, I can't comment because I hardly listen and go ask for help so yeah... best to not look like a total prat

It's not calling you... it's just saying the way you spoke to me was clearly very immature.

I've been in the desk every night this week, and i've seen you twice, just like you saw me twice. I'm not going to start saying omg leah is never there because i've only seen you twice, because I'm not in there 24 hours a day so I cannot comment on your attendance as you more than likely are there when I am not, same goes for me.. I am there when you are not.. so don't tell me how many times i've been in HxHD cause I think I can count.

Also, Scott & pleke are not the same person, and pleke used to bring tens of clones in.. and we managed to deal with them sufficiently.

You should be able to enforce your bans, if not they are absolutely pointless and you aren't doing your job properly in that respect.

[leah]

They are enforced but we can hardly stop people reloading constantly and loading clones can we?
