Current state of affairs at Habbox

[FlyingJesus]

Overall, since I got AGM or in that list?

As AGM obv since that's what was being discussed. No need to include things like reports since that's just basic details of the job, I'm talking about positive changes that were/are above and beyond the normal management roles that you signed up for since clearly we need someone who's more than just a placeholder

I would say that I didn't imagine the achievements system like that.Instead of awards/tokens, it'd be tasks/tokens. Completing singular tasks gets you tokens, you can spend in the token shop. Completing a 'set' gets you a bigger reward (credits, VIP). So starting from scratch wouldn't mean you'd have to reset tokens to zero, it'd just mean that everyone would start from the same page. I think the only realistic exception to this can be something like post count but that's more because it'd be a practical nightmare to make a note of everyone's post count when the system started.

Achievement System

I would like to raise some questions/points in regards of the achievement system you would like to see that has a similar style to how games such as Runescape work. At this present time we have "Awards" and "Tokens" - The awards just give you a badge on the forum and nothing else. There is no connection to the tokens or a point system.

But in games like runescape (I've never played but played similar games) once you have completed an achievement you would gain some sort of XP that would get you closer to the next level. Now we would be able to do that if we combined the tokens system into it as well. This is only an example so don't shoot me down for this crap example but say one of the achievements was:

• Post 5 Threads across HabboxForum

In my head I have it so if the user completes that task, they can go tasks page and say they have completed it. This would be checked to make sure they have and then would be approved. Would we still continue with an award and give X amount of tokens? Or just gain X amount of points to go up the next "level" sort of speak.

Maybe a combination of both depending on the achievement could get you the award badge/icon & X amount of tokens.

Now I think Mike said about starting it from scratch and if we did that, that would mean all the current tokens everyone has gained would be reset to 0 if we went down that route. As I think it would probably be silly to have tokens and another sort of tokens/XP system alongside of it if we didn't use what we already have installed.

The way RS works, and the way I imagine working it on the forum is that you would get a small reward for each task, so for the forum it would be tokens, and if the task is harder they would get more tokens. Then when a set of tasks is complete (E.g, all 'Events' tasks or all 'Forum' tasks) they would gain a larger lump sum reward.

I think Kyle Inseriousity. mentioned earlier about a unique user title for completing all tasks, that would work well. Not sure if you could also have something where it shows which task sets you've completed on your userbit as well.

Personally I wouldn't scrap tokens, I would have tokens as a side reward, but instead of having a 'View Awards' on the userbit, simply have a 'Achievements: 34' instead.

It was mike that mentioned completionist userbar. Matt I think the idea is that awards would be replaced by this

Okay I get you both. I think we would be re-using the awards plugin as it is at the moment but changing it around so it makes more sense with achievements. Unless there's a specific achievements plugin that can work in a similar way. Do you still want images associated with them such as: http://www.habboxforum.com/images/aw...es/debates.gif or scrapped with just complete text on the page.

[Inseriousity.]

It might be nice to have a small image representing each one or you could do it so that each set has a distinct image. The Habbox a little H, comps coins etc. If there are 30 tasks a set, 10 in each difficulty, then that's gonna be a lot of achievements for that awards page.

I'm just trying to think of a better way that users would be able to see them with ease and can easily say they have completed one which can then be approved.

At least I do reports lmao, some were shocked when I did .

Planned and ran a fansite event.
Helped plan a fansite event with another fansite.
Attend fansite meetings although I'm not an official rep.
Plan awards/run them and help make the room, Laura helped a lot with this so this is borderline.
Helped fund some events ran by departments if they needed it, as opposed to asking higher GM.

A few others that are in completion:

Bringing back official rooms.
Organising HxEE.
Reforming News.

There are some other things, but they'd probably fit into what a manager should already be doing, more off occations when they didn't thus I stepped in or when managers needed to discuss possible changes in the department which I allowed/denied. Not trying to big myself up here, as I know it's not a massive amount, sorry about that!

[Inseriousity.]

Yeah I think using that page is the best way. It'd just need to be advertised properly with new users so they know that it's there and there's something for them to aim for. Looking at the awards page, I'm not sure how/if you can alter it exactly but if it's the same layout used then an image for each seperate task would look more appealing.

Just had a thought about proposed system. In rs when completing task set you get a stat boosting item or something that gives a special feature. Same can apply to this. Completes all elite forum tasks? +10% tokens when posting aeons forum. That sort I thing you know. Don't know how award system would work in this feature but worth a try I auppose
