Managments decessions (Removal of certain staff roles)

[nvrspk4]

I think management pulls a bit of an apple, removing something because it's 'broken' or 'unneeded' and then reimplementing it with the words 'Revolutionary'.

I've seen some features introduced around Habbox recently that have previously been rejected, you may say that management is getting better at accepting ideas, it isn't something that comes from a six month turnaround, it's just management being inconsistent with ideas and it is coming heavily from the fact that management is changing hands so often. Then you come up with the fantastic idea of having a frequently denied requests thread, what's the point in that if management are going to turn around in six months and implement it saying it's their idea.

I'm confused as to what you're saying a little bit, but I *think* you're saying that management disagrees with ideas and then later on decides they're good ideas and implements them?

If that's what you mean, I see the reevaluation of ideas as a good thing, when compared to the alternative of them never implementing them just because they're stubborn about staying with the "no".

Yes, but it makes your idea of a frequently suggested ideas thread... pointless. But it's also frustrating that management can't keep the same decision for more than six months.

So you would rather they just kept a system that was not working just so they could be seen as 'consistent'? Personally, I would rather see a system evaluated and then revaluated and then if it doesn't work management having the understanding and flexibility to realise this and change it.

I'm confused by this thread. Since when was it bad for Management to be human? :S People make mistakes and they should fix them. If Habbox removed the Senior Staff positions, and reimplemented them when there was a decline in activity, then surely that's a good thing? It's one of the only times you could consider the management here "human"

The last I checked the "frequently asked" ideas thread wasn't being implemented, because there were too many things wrong with it. One of which was the fact that ideas aren't flung back and forth that often for ideas to be considered a hindrence. It was just an idea afterall that came from the idea of the swear filter being an optional feature, and that idea doesn't turn up as often as we would think

No, I'm referring to ideas that were rejected six months ago and then management decides one day to pull it out of a hat.

By that logic we would get nothing done at Habbox. Not everyone accepts every decision every time one's suggested or made and that includes members of management. I think you would be complaining about a lot more things if in the past an idea was rejected, and the management team were incapable of realizing that rejection was wrong or outdated. I would have said the ability to acknowledge this as such as well as being active enough and committed enough to implement these ideas and try them out were good characteristics of a management team.

Surly you're not suggesting that HxHD be left as it was whilst it was known by management that it was within HxHD's best interest to make additional changes. Also to capture the gist of the idea of this thread it would assume that the management team of Habbox is everlasting and even has a crystal ball to determine what will be successful and what wont be. Sure changes are based on good logic but that doesn't give them a 100 percent rate of success. Often things work, sometimes they don't. If they don't work then they will be changed back, to something else, or more often to the middle ground which is the case with HxHD where although the staff numbers have been increased all staffmembers (non trialists) are allowed rights. HxHD is now in a scenario somewhere inbetween how it used to be originally and how it was after recent changes. It's likely much better structured in the end due to this but would never have gotten to this stage if the community members of management were more like you're saying and refused to look at past decisions, or ideas.

It seems like you have a very specific event that's pissing you off...care to share so it can be addressed? Or if its not specific, then some examples?

Without giving the member credit you mean?
