Should HabboxForum introduce an awards system?

[Immenseman]

Yeah, they should defo be under post bit. If there was a link I wouldn't even care, nobody really would. It's like a half people pleasing measure, we'll give you them but won't show them publicly. People are only going to try and collect them to show them off, you might consider that as sad or whatever but it's true. They should be by post-bit, even if that means making you view it vertical or whatever CHF is.

I don't know where the younger thing comes from. Their most active users are older than most of us. Ok there are a few people who are ancient flyingjesus, sergio, jin etc (a) but like SkaterChu is 18+ and so are a lot of their active users (who used to use HxF in like 2006).

I know their staff are 18+, that's irrelevant though. The site and forum both seem like they would visually appeal to younger people and the from what I've seen, the average user of the forum seems younger than that of Habbox. This isn't a criticism, because obviously it's a Habbo fansite and it matches the audience of Habbo itself. On the contrary, it's a criticism of Habbox because the root of our problems here is the fact that Habbox's average users are stuck at the mark Habbo was at a couple of years ago. But now Habbo's users are much younger and Club Habbo looks to have catered for this which is why something that looks good or works well for them, won't necessarily be the same for Habbox.

Edit: I agree people will want to show them off, so displaying them on the posts is probably the best idea. I still vote for in the bottom-right of the signature as the best method though and the row can grow across the bottom of the sig. Think about if you display the maximum amount of information in your postbit, then it will look major-cluttered after you've only got a few rewards. Once the row in the sig is filled, a link could appear to take you to their profile where they can all be seen. Unless it could be made scrollable?

Yeah but everyone just seems to think CHF is full of younger people and aimed at younger people when it isn't really. The youngest people I've seen on forums are all on here. There are 11/12 year olds on here. Yeah, Habbox does need to try be more visually pleasing but that's being worked on.

Maybe I'm wrong then, but I'm also basing that opinion from me trying to use Club Habbo myself. I've tried to get into it on a few occasions but it never gained my interest (and that's even though I already know several of its users and workforce where as I came to Habbox not knowing a soul).

Previous post expanded btw.

They should be smaller in PostBit but full sized on Profile.

[Immenseman]

That's because you're established here. I would imagine I'm one of the only people who post on both on a regular basis. They have more active discussions on there and more active members. Here, however I'm just more used to it and some users I've known for years and it's easier to talk to them on here

[Black_Apalachi]

I know what you mean, but surely if I could establish myself here when I was much younger and didn't know s single person, I can do it there? I mean like you say you're one of the most active members and I know you, and I know Ryan and various others.

[Immenseman]

Because you're not young any more and already have 8k posts and 7 rep power.

[Pigperson]

They would be good but make them small and in user info bit Don't have too many either otherwise it would just clog it up.

I don't much care, if you create them then you'll have a bunch of people on the forum who NEED EVERY SINGLE AWARD TO LIVE and some that will cry if you don't. Weigh the differences and go with whatever.
