    That is the most baseless comment of the year.
    He does care about it. Just because he does not post does not mean he does nothing. When I was staff, he used to keep in touch regularly with all Smods/Managers. You have to realise that he is a grown up man with a job. He takes care of Habbox behind the scenes. If he didn't "care about it", this site would have died many years ago.

    Also Jin does post quite often, maybe less now considering his uni has restarted and has the Help Desk to take care of (well the room), and fix all the problems with the site.

    nvr, however, should post more often.

    But the problem is, when you are running a site at Admin level, it becomes very hard to post regularly in discussions. I have owned many popular forums with 40,000 unique hits a day, and the amount of work required to just run the site is unbelievable. I rarely had time to read threads which were not in the feedback/complaints section.

    So the thing is, I can't really blame the Admins as I understand their position well as I have been in the same position before.

    The biggest mistake people make is that they think running a site is easy, but believe me, its extremely hard.

    I posted lots while I was a department manaja . I don't blame nvr and Jin one bit though for not posting outside the necessary forums as their workload is immense. The same would apply for other members of the forum administration. Would be a nice treat to see a few words from sierk once in a while though .

    one of the main reason he is still here is because he pays alot to keep it up and running. If he didnt care why would he pay so much

    I highly doubt this is the case, why would a 25+ year old man run a Habbo fansite that he doesn't post on and it losing money? Use your noggin - it's not logical. Ad and donator revenue keeps it running.

    That will not cover it, there aren't that many donators and although the guests cover their costs via ads, we members post threads and such which needs far more CPU and takes up more traffic.

    I know plenty of owners in similar situations who care greatly and pay a lot of money yet do not have the time to help out with things.

    Far more CPU? I assume you mean bandwidth... I don't know whether you realised but Habbox changed servers a while back to a 'bargain' server if you will and if Sierk is paying for this site then he truly is... weird. Anyway, I imagine ads and donator gives them £50/100 p/month if they're implemented correctly etc. That's enough for a cheap server.
