i didn't argue the fact there's nothing new, i'm arguing the fact that people complain there's nothing new without generating any ideas and expecting everything to be done for them.

That's true. More communication in all departments need to be encouraged and less arguing within departments. Staff should stop complaining and try and find new ways of doing things and putting forward ideas and managers should always reply and acknowledge them and if possible, find a way to use them. That's pretty obvious stuff but communication seems to be lacking.

[@]@Haxo[/@] that's a poor excuse you can't say that without trying?

Well isnt that why we have Jess and Scott...
I do have an idea that Habbox use to do... But i doubt it will be aproved.

well no, not really. jess and scott are there to approve ideas, organise the staff list, make sure everything is working, discipline they're not there to single handedly brainstorm habboxlive and tell you exactly what to do and when to do it.

the managers are people who have shown dedication by generating ideas in the past and proving themselves, not people who are told to do the job of 30 others.

I completely understand that.
However, talking about regular habbo topics wasn't specified.. Just "a 60 second voice clip of your DJing to the application."


Also - I apologize if I came off as "WELL I APPLIEDZ WHY DIDN I GET IT?!?!". That wasn't my intention at all. I understand that not everyone who applies will get the job. It would be a little more comforting if someone would reply with a no, and maybe something that person can do to make their app better?

hiya, in regards to yr last point we do receive a lot of applications and to go through them one by one and give feedback would take a lot of valuable time that we need to be spending on pushing habboxlive up.

but maybe it's something we can look into for the future when resources aren't maxed?

Just want somewhere else to read them other than the habbox site as. Anybody remember the habbohut teen magazine? Probably not... but it was really quite good! Here's a link so you can see how it worked:http://frankenteddy.deviantart.com/a...sue-1-61414807
I'm sure Mathew's gossip column could be implemented there too :p

lol that's extremely cute. Looks like a lot of fun to produce...

I have no problem with current users going to events, that is what they are there for. but when half of the room like you say is habbox staff members and 9/10 of the other half is current members it doesnt really leave much space for potential new members to play. bigger events with more notice (aka not the host posting on the forum 2 minutes after the event was due to start and wondering why their room is empty) would give room for plenty of users to participate.

Also @ all events staff - don't rely so heavily on the holodice for your events. Bingo, higher or lower, pod race, "don't roll a 6" (didn't this used to be a way to scam people at giveaways to get your room popular?) to name but a few. Look at some of today's events:

Show Hide

Games of chance are good fun every once in a while but when the majority of events consist of the host/player rolling a dice to decide their fate, it gets kind of boring. More events that require at least some degree of 'skill' please? [@]@Mathew[/@]

During the Summer, we generally ask for events to be held in the larger rooms which accommodate for 50 players. Throughout the rest of the year, I don't really think they get busy enough where we're in a position to worry about people not being able to get in. There are times when I do think Habbox is running just for the sake of keeping staff happy; in the sense that the amount of staff far outweigh members. Whilst some would say this signals failure, I do think it's quite nice that so many people want to help out in keeping the site running. If that means that we have to host events just to increase staff morale, I really don't mind. Yes we need to try and get new members, but we just can't neglect the current staff and members.

I remember posting a thread last year where I asked which games people prefer. Strangely enough, people were happiest playing Bingo, Falling Furni and Pod Racing amongst other traditional games. We can look in awe at other fansites with their original events, but if the majority of users here at Habbox prefer good, traditional games, then I don't think it's a major issue. That said, variety is a good thing which is why we do try to make sure the same event isn't repeated within a few hours.

What I mean is, event managers should be hosting events (I never see [@]@jurv[/@] hosting one sorry if you do) whereas Mathew does one every once in a while and covers them.

lol getting cheeky aren't you!!

The Head DJ for group 2 should sort that out then. I remember when I was Head DJ, we were responsible for creating events and stuff for our timezone as part of our job description and the group 2 Head DJ should be doing exactly that.

Nah you should help out and host events and what not, as well as relaying your ideas to your Head DJ and radio management. But essentially if there are no events, then the group 2 Head DJ should start sorting stuff out, getting DJs together and promoting their assigned timezone.
