Do something BIG Habbox!

[Kyle]

there's another thing.

if you're going to do something, do it. most decisions are treated as some gormet meal, left to marinate in their own juices at room temp. for 2 weeks and then just thrown away or implemented poorly. see: hxl/habbox merge.

Why is coding an issue for a magazine it's just images surely

I'd actually like to see to attempted again to be honest. I think it could be done

[Drew]

is there a list of competitions hosted by departments other than comps that are still running? can someone compile 1?

to be honest it could still work without coding.

Graphics is currently doing Monthly Graphics Competitions, if that's what you're asking for?

I had a look at the HabboHut magazine today and they did it with Flash, but I think it can be done with HTML5 and jQuery much more easily. If we do go forward with the idea, I don't think the responsibility should just be passed on to Graphics, News or Content. I think every Habbox department should play a part in it, and non-Habbox staff should be allowed to pitch in too.

Yeah every department should be able to pitch in because each of them should be entitled to their own page(s) but im sure how non staff will :S?

Possibly allowing them to send gossip (Habbo screenshots), letters to the editor etc. to someone in charge of the magazine, and they can pick a few good ones to put on it. Just a few ideas off the top of my head

• Achievements system is definitely a good idea but to me it seems like something that'd be for the existing users rather than persuading new users to join, but tbh I'm not sure I completely understand the concept anyway . I guess if there's a selection of fun tasks involved within the system then it'll be a reason for people to sign up though.
• As for v7, I Agree with the point that when it's ready I'm sure it'll be great and hopefully come with a selection of new features and functionality. Shame it's taking so long though, and more importantly it's a shame that it seems to be Rare Values that's holding it up .

Speaking of Rare Values, I think since the Marketplace never happened we should definitely be thinking of other features that can be added to the site to make a big impact. I don't know what's planned front-end to be honest, but for Rare Values it'd be nice to see an updated version of @-Danube-;'s whole market concept which was turned down for v6. Turning the main categories in to markets could definitely be something that gives Rare Values some more functionality, with a wide array of statistics available for all users.

e.g. for each of the main categories (e.g. Classic Rares, Ice Cream Machines, Pillows, Branded Furni etc) there could be information on the overall value change on every item overall, ↑ 4.3%, and then listening the items which have made the biggest increases/decreases as a % of their base value which could be set as 1 week ago. And on the Rare Values homepage it could flick through the different categories, as well as having 'Rares of the Week' a bit like what @-:Undertaker:-; chooses in his Rare Values Weekly, but would be based on which items have increased the most based on the change as a % of their base value.

This may all sound complicated, but if done correctly it could all be displayed simply so that it's easily understandable and it'll help make the Rare Values pages more dynamic imo.

habbo already shows you increases, decreases, number of sales for the past week. it will be much more accurate than anything habbox could ever produce, im sorry. you need to accept your department is not needed beyond ltds and teleports and stop it holding up v7

I worked on the Habbohut one for a brief period, was good and well put together (when it worked, it rarely seemed to work for me). With the news department in limbo at the moment, it would be good timing to put that in place. Don't think the department needs a manager to get that into motion.
