[David]

Bethie I believe.

The 'fame' debate is stupid. It's a legit word used in TONS of professional organisations, done on achievement and dedication, now how many fans they had.

No it is not a stupid debate, especially in this context.

If I go "OMG THIS CELEBRITY IS SO FAMOUS!!!!!!!! YOU MUST HAVE HEARD OF HIM." and you go "Nope, never heard of them before.", then are you going to classify that person as famous?

Just as in the case of Habbox ",Jess, deserves to be noted because all of her work in X and how much she helped out in Y which led to Z = immediate fame" vs "well no... ,Jess, only did X which wasn't anything major... so she doesn't deserve to be noted as famous at all".

Call it "Hall of achievement" or "Dedication", or better yet scrap it. I'd love to see how many people would get into the Hall Of Fame purely because they've been so dedicated by sitting in a department for over a year.

Yes, it is a stupid debate. You're being pedantic over nothing; there are lots of Hall of Fames all over the world. It's using a popular phrase rather than it being exactly specific.

A hall of fame, wall of fame, walk of fame, walk of stars or avenue of stars is a type of attraction established for any field of endeavor to honor individuals of noteworthy achievement in that field. The meaning of "Fame" has changed over the years, originally meaning "renown" as opposed to today's more common meaning of "celebrity".

Jrh -. Years later Jrh2002 returned to Habbox as an Assistant General Manager until he resigned several months later. He has been a large donator to Habbox but now has no dealings with any area of Habbox.I'm 99% sure he returned originally as habboxlive manager then Jess became joint manager then he went onto being agm.I also don't understand why undertaker is on it -He helped shape the features of Rare Values and helped provide accurate and quick information for avid Habbo playerIs that not just a rare values reporters job?

Back then no it wasn't - as a Rare Values REPORTER you only noted down values you saw whereas with him being the manager actually updated them.

It's not a stupid debate. Using that definition you give, it is clearly the part about something being a 'noteworthy' achievement that is subjective and remains open to interpretation depending on where people set the bar of something being 'noteworthy.' Creating some form of objective criteria to judge people on a Hall of Fame that'll be accepted by the majority therefore is likely to be impossible. The thing about professional organisations is that the people in said organisations are paid to just go along with whatever senior management force on them.

Also Warren and GM who said it should be scrapped, why didn't you say that before?

And please define what accounts towards "noteworthy achievement" for me? I'm sure "managing to stay on HabboxForum.com for 8 years" would be a 'noteworthy achievement' to a select few, but do they go on this "Hall Of Fame"? Managing a department for a year might be "noteworthy achievement" but does everyone who has accomplished that deserve to go on there?
