Nonsense

[HotelUser]

As Oliver and Jin addressed elsewhere Shar was more than entitled to returning into position that she did, and that if she had chosen not to resign she would have been entitled to keep the position. Additionally it is, again, none of your business who is promoted but the business of general management and in the case of Nicki forum management.

I know it's in need of help. But surely she could have returned as a normal moderator.
This is like the Shar thing all over again.
But I did go back on my word, I do say Nicola is the best for the job at the time being.
And if we are arguing about this, then we should also be arguing the fact that kelly-Mate returned as a Trade Expert and not normal staff.

I agree with this on some level, but I don't want a forum I use to be controlled by bias individuals. I'm not saying that's the case here, but in my opinion, we are allowed to give our opinion on staff changes.

By moaning you are simply hampering the effort to re-build Habbox

Every decision made nowadays gets a moan. Nicola is great and someone with experience is much needed especially now. You can moan and moan, but really this isn't a new phenomenon and they can hire the hobo of the streets to be GM if they wanted to.

Completely agree.

More SMODs is a great thing. It means that Forum Management have more time to focus on the department itself as well as finding new ways to improve the user experience rather than having to make up for lulls in staffing. It makes sense to have more people with greater responsibility to allow the management more time to focus their attention. For example, in News, we have Senior Reporters who are there to help with any issues with reports, fix images, check up on trialists etc. That gives Martin more opportunity to focus on stepping News up a level.

It makes sense. I don't see the issue.

Edit: I also think that people seem to complain when something doesn't go in their favour. If, for example, Robbie had gotten SMOD I doubt as many people would complain (this is due to Robbie's popularity) and, as much as I like him, I don't think it's fair.

Hiring Nicola back as SMOD just makes sense, they're low on moderation staff and hiring her back as a standard moderator would be a waste.

Why are there now four super moderators with just four standard moderators, it seems completely unnecessary and over the top, I know there's a shortage but it basically defeats the point of having moderators in the first place.

Unless of course you're planning to open moderator applications (Again..)

Edit:

There's also management who often moderate, so you have essentially more people promoted higher than moderators than there are moderators?

you literally argue for the sake of arguing don't you?

a) Yes
b) I was highlighting that there was a problem, but there just wasn't any point in not hiring Nicola back.

you don't highlight an issue by bending to another opinion as soon as this other opinion posts. you just make yrself look like a ****.

No, it stops me from looking like a stubborn douche?
