Moderation seems to be a massive issue on Habbo

[Dopiefreak]

I would like to see some variation of the old Hobba scheme re-implemented. Something similar to Player Moderators on Runescape. With a community as small as Habbos (compared to other games), it would bridge the gap between Sulake and the Community.

The reason Hobbas were removed was due to security, as a hacker who gets access to a Hobba had a lot of power. The way round this is to lower the power the Hobba's have, the same as Player Moderators on Runescape.

With the above being a free solution it would seem like a no brainer, but I am sure Habbo have thought about something as simple as that, and have their reasons

I did bring this up in the Newsbox thing on Wednesday i completely agree.

I think this whole thread misses the point. Sulake is a business. It has been pointed out their profits are up. Also been pointed out their customer support is undoubtedly worse - you wait around 14 days before hearing back. They don't care though because their numbers aren't dropping, they are making more. The only way this will change in the future is if and only if their profits take a hit.

Yeah, it's been 2 months for me -waiting to get an email back.

Well, I have been receiving emails recently with links to a survey asking if my request has been resolved, whether it was answered in a timely manner and if the response was clear, etc. Maybe things are looking up?

If it ever did get brought back, Sulake are going to give them like 1 power - to enter rooms when full XL

Although, it is a good idea to bring it back. I was never a part of Habbo when they were around >_> I only joined 1 month after eXperts ended , so I missed out on everything fun pfft.

I'd rather have guides back tbqh. Or Mods that would actually go around the hotel talking to people.... not just stand in a doorway and be silent, I think someone referred to them as 'Silent Stalkers' or something xL

We can only hope that Kitano is a nice hotel manager - But he prob. doesn't know what Hobbas are, he didn't even know who Ludus was :S

where are you getting this crap from :S

A website, I will try and find it - but I found it via 'stumbleupon' months ago. So... I'll try :S

I don't doubt that the website said it, but I can't believe anyone would think Habbo could match website traffic like google, ebay, wikipedia, youtube, runescape.....etc.

I might have meant 'websites with the most accounts' then. I don't know - I've confused myself, it might be users. All I can remember, is that Google and Youtube were 1st and 2nd. Wikipedia was like, miles down the list because there's only 15,000,000 acc's on wikipedia compared to the 230 million on Habbo.

I'm still trying to find the site, stumbleupon won't take you to the same site twice though which is just -_-

* K I think this was the order. Google, YouTube, Skype, Msn, Habbo, Gmail... then Idk the rest.

Runescape has 150 million accounts registered.
