Unfortunately we've been told that we cannot host giveaways or win a room's etc. when there are events on as they take priority

That's a misunderstanding. I meant avoiding clashes during big events. so habbox lottery, saturday night quiz and [insert new weekly events coming soon here]. Vice versa, events cant book at the same time as the big hxl events like the balls, the award ceremonies, the rare giveaways etc. but a win a room during a game of ff? Not a problem (and vice versa, an ff during a win a room, not a problem).

unsure how lottery is a big event...
SNQ really isnt a big event ether, Although a lot of people turn up to it. It shouldn't be classed as a big event, big events are like HxSS etc... Don't see the problem with them clashing anyway really

cause if you focus on a win a room and advertise it all over the site then the poor event host is going to have next to no-one turning up, then people show up and see a habbox room with like 2 visitors and think the sites dead when in fact they're all in the other room etc

I'm defining big event by 'rarely done' rather than 'wahoo firework display'
Habbox Lottery, once a month. SNQ, once a week. Falling Furni, lots of them. Because they are rarely done, I see no reason to split the attendance when it can easily be avoided.

Oh I understand! The way I've been told by many users (not just yourself) it seemed that if we wanted to host such events we would need to book. It's also my understanding that before we had permissions to book events on the timetable as thats what one of the HxL department told me. I understood that it would be unfair to the events department because I'm sure compared to fallin furni and bingos people would much rather giveaways, win a rooms and events such as those. Thats why I assumed that the split in people was not recommended?

Coming back to the fact new people aren't welcome, you're so right, I was in an event the other day on a clone due to it being HxEE I came in on that name - I got told to shut up and **** you just because I said I didn't know how to play, if I was a new person I wouldn't stay for that. I remember the same happening to me at a HFFM event and as you can see I'm not at HFFM.

Attitudes have changed, people should be wanting new people to join and not drive them away, this isn't aimed at anyone I just thought it would fit.

Team DJs up with events staff. When an event is being hosted make sure the DJ knows it and directs people to it rather than "come dance with me in hxhd loal ". Let hxl staff book events on timetable too tbh and if it gets too much then restrict each staff - hxl to 1 event per day and events to 2-3.

Kinda unrelated but I was in an event yesterday (higher or lower) and a bacon struts in rolls the dice and gets a 6. People from the line (including habbox regulars!) start shouting HIGHER HIGHER HIGHER so the girl confirms and says higher, rolls the next dice and gets a lower number.... OBVIOUSLY. The host - despite not even attempting to explain the rules properly - says the usual "plz ex.it without dot". WHAT? No wonder people who attend events don't sign up to habbox, they're not there long enough to find out about it!

Exactly - Was these normal members of Habbox saying these things or staff?
