    Not even joking on the first page I went to I spotted numerous errors I can't be bothered to read everything and point them all out because if the first page I saw is anything to go by then...

    FIRST PAGE I SAW - FIRST 2 PARAGRAPHS

    Sierk - Co-Owner
    Sierk is the original owner of Habbox and for almost 7 years was the sole owner of Habbox.com and all other affiliated sites. In late 2009 Jin became Co-Owner of Habbox.com and since then Sierk has been a silent owner in Habbox. (NEEDS COMMAS) Sierk joined Habbo in 2002 and joined Habbox in 2003 with its then owner, ex-Hobba Mizki. A while later after Mizki left Habbox and Sierk became the sole owner. For around 5 years Sierk played and (SHOULD BE AN) active role in Habbox and Habbo but since has become less involved and the day to day running of the site is now left to Jin and the team of General Management. (HOW LONG DO YOU WANT THAT SENTENCE TO BE)
    Jin joined Habbo in 2004 and later joined Habbox. Jin stayed at Habbox for many years as a site technician (ALL OTHER JOB TITLES ARE CAPITALISED) and was a relatively unknown person until the last two years or so within Habbox. Jin then became an administrator on Habboxforum and quiet (PLZ COME ON GUYZ) some time after became an Assistant General Manager for all things technical. Just weeks after being promoted Jin saw himself being put into the position of Acting General Manager whilst the current General Manager was away. No sooner had the General Manager returned, Habbox saw Jin become Co-Owner with Sierk. It is now down to Jin to make most of the big decisions for Habbox whilst the day to day running of the site is down to the General Management team.

    I had to edit so many SPAG errors when doing content because whoever did them a while back didn't pass primary 1 English and grammar school and needs a rebate.

    I have a striking suspicion that the reason has an affiliation with V6. But our lovely content designers should be able to add content to V6 in a matter of days now.

    I've never realised it was as big of a problem as it so clearly is. At the moment most of the pages on the site are being changed and updated to be a lot more sleeker looking and concise to fit with the new style of the site. If those kind of mistakes have either been there before we started doing so or if they've cropped up as a result of then I whole heartedly apologise for that. It's impossible for us to check and make sure every update which is made is totally perfect, obviously as every update is not prefect I'll be doing my best to ensure that it doesn't happen as much or at all in the future.
