    You could argue that the dragon was placed in the Pack as a promotional increase.

    But the thing is your complain about the dragon if the dragon has to be moved where would you put the red gothic fountain as it was not released for 25 credits before it could therefore remain in the gothic section?

    I never said whether I think the jade dragon should be normal or not I see reasons for why it should as well as reasons for why it shouldn't.

    Not online very often

    as much as i think it should be normal it obviously isnt gonna be. take the scripted pods. they should be super rare like the army chair but it aint. i really dont know whats going on here. luke mentioned it super rares are rares that havent been available in the catalogue or have been accidently released. supers are not based on rarity so that means old ecotron and the trees are categorized not super.

    loyalty now thats different, it aint rare at all its no better than catalogue normal in the sense anyone can get it at anytime for free. at least with hc and payday you actually pay for it.

    with regards to the values most are reported on the report rare values section and if a value is made up then theyve done it. honestly someone CAN lie to say a rare is more than it actually is they and someone else could make it seem accurate by making a trade screenie so really you have to trust the person giving the value is being honest.

    as much as habbox try to give exact values they never will prices change daily which is why the value changes every few days. like ive said before they are market values not max not lowest but medium. some people think its exact but they are gullable it IS a guide. like on habbo i dont sell for loss someone says to me the value im like i know i want profit

    There is nothing to 'win' - this has been the policy for years. A promotional section will come one day, and I do want it as it would seperate PayDay, Habbo Club and so forth much better and put an end to this. However we do not have this section, so the orginal point still stands; the rare goes into the section where it was last released in.

    ON-TOPIC - Ryan tells me he wants a promotional page but none of the technicians know how. So we have to wait for a new rare values panel. ;L
    That is what I have been saying all along.

    also whoever said rare values aren't categorised (super, normal, etc) on the rarity, wth?

    RARE values kinda gives away that its valued on the RARITY of the items, not how it was released with other items in the catalogue, or in its own section? rofl? bit stupid if you ask me.
    If you knew anything about it you would work out that if me and my department at that time had fixed values, then nvrspk wouldn't of hired me this time around would he, not forgetting the fact he supported me when it actually happened. That poll that was made was made with the permission of the former General Manager, who later told me when I asked why he wasn't being finished off aswell his reason was because 'he was in a higher position than me'. - the simple fact of the matter is, if I had done anything wrong then I wouldn't be here now. I don't wish to go on about this all the time, but if anyone is blaming me unfairly then I will defend myself.

    On your final piece, that has been Habbox policy throughout the years including when pieces such as the White Maze Barrier and so on were released in promotional deals under a section, they were put in that section and not normal rares. If we did place items based on how rare they were (which no other international fansite does as far as I know) then we'd have trouble with owners constantly demanding rares move, disagreements 24/7 - not worth it.

    The policy has worked fine over the years and still does.

    take the scripted pods. they should be super rare like the army chair but it aint.
    When I decided to add these to Habbox back in 2006 I also thought these belonged with the Chair in the super section, having looked into it I found out that they had actually been on sale on purpose back in the past, whereas the Chair never was on sale, on purpose or by mistake. The Pods and Chair are in their correct sections as it stands.

    I got bored after the second line tbh.
    I think there should be a promotional page aswell...
    [In quote to what someone said in a previous post]
    For all Habbo deals and Promos such as Ukash etc

    it woul;d stop all this.
    I think for the moment, until a promtional page is made, The jade dragon should be in normals.

    I am in agreement with the wacky weekend items (jade dragon lamp, red gothic fountain, power globe) to be in the Normal Rares section

    I'm not fully against this, however it would mean looking at items such as the Disco Lamp and the Maze Barriers and seeing if they too also fit in there, as I am pretty sure one or two of the Maze Barriers have been released in deals similar to the Jade Dragon Lamp & Red Gothic Fountain.

    Edit; I have just looked into the Yellow Maze Barrier and it was released in a deal similar to these it looks like; http://www.habboxforum.com/showthrea...barrier&page=3 -; if this is the case, then it would mean the Jade Dragon Lamp, Red Gothic Fountain, Power Globe, Disco Sign(?) & Yellow Maze Barrier moving into normal rares until a promotional section is set up.

    No.
    The yellow road barrier was never released as to be called a rare.
    And the road barriers were released at 10- 15c per during the big streets off boba quest line a few years back.
