HxHD Changes

That's how life works I'm afraid, work well - you get rewarded, we have various reward systems in place here at Habbox. If you don't work well you are warned and eventually will be removed from the job.

I would love to know what these rewards are, because the only ones I can think of now are RVROTW/RVROTM and MOTM. Elsewhere most systems have been revoked.

In January I announced that I would be revamping staff reward schemes, the first move of this was to ensure every department had funds to reward staff in a staff of the month scheme. Due to other priorities around Habbox this is the only reward offered universally in all departments however this will change when I get time to draw up some policies. Some Department Managers take it upon themselves to send their staff congratulatory PMs when they have done well - not for anything specific but something important, this is something that should increase around Habbox.

Promotions are a nice reward but they are not a necessary reward. Jin spoke to me a few weeks ago about some things giving staff out-of-habbox awards, it's just a lot of the time these things take time to develop. Staff Rewards and Praise has always been something I put at the top of the list of importance in keeping staff happy here at Habbox, HabboxLive has just been revamped based on a system of management to staff feedback becoming more often and HabboxLive has improved rapidly, there aren't many options for promotion in HabboxLive (i know there are senior ranks but they dont get given out very often in comparison to how many staff, aiming for promotion would be a very long shot), hopefully this is something we can implement to all Habbox Departments.

So from what I can gather, you're revoking all these motivational policies without actually having drawn up news ones. To me these policies were working fine and the Help Desk SS staff did their jobs well. PM's are hardly a reward, to me that was a little motivation technique which you should give out no matter if the staff are doing well or not.

The fast that some departments still have senior ranks and others not shows that this can not actually be put in action for departments universally anyway. RVR's and HRVR's remain very different and the ERVR was kind of a learning curb for when you graduated to HRVR. And given that most RVR's do get promoted provided they stay, it works.

That is very motivational for staff as well as within HabboxLive feedback PMs which can tell DJs good aspects about their shows which they do actually really appreciated. Simple things go a long way!

Different managers have different motivational/reward structures in place. Perhaps this could be standardised but personally I think that's boring.

on topic though, I agree that the community getting involved with hxhd is something that should be welcomed with open arms although scott's right, there is the tendancy for these things to start off well then people falter so fingers crossed it'll work out well

I can understand why he's annoyed but the majority of people don't have a song and dance over it. What I was having a go at him for was the fact that for all we know the normal staff who have now got these powers and were probably feeling good because of it could now be feeling they don't deserve them, Whig isn't a nice thought. I probably wouldn't comment if I didn't have the same rank as him prior to this aswell.

I'm just worried about the fact that rights are just going to be given out now that there isn't any super staff.

Like you're giving new staffmembers rights out like they're candy.

What? How is that practical at all? It'll be easier for hackers/trashers to get in and wreak havoc.

HabboxLive is a perfect example of it scott, the feedback Head DJs and HxL Management give to HxL DJs is tremendous and you can read through a feedback PM and then listen to the DJs next show and from reading the feedback PM you can see how they are taking it on board and improving it.

Ayd, there have always been reward policies in place at Habbox however they have not always been utilised nor emphasised. I have been Assistant General Manager (Staff) here for about 4 months I think and my aim is to make the staff experience at Habbox more enjoyable within each department individually, the reason it may seem some departments dont have reward schemes is because each department needs individual reward schemes to benefit their different types of staff.

I remember when I was at news, if there was a superb exclusive article, that someone would write meticulously, then I would send them a congratulatory PM and even offer them some free VIP as a reward and that was really motivational. We always tried to motivate staff and it shows in final outcome and dedication, people genuinely enjoyed themselves and felt part of the team.

Selection will have to be much more rigorous shannon.
