    I'd suggest that as Hxhd staff you should create a habbox account yourself if you want to be able to assist people properly. What they have to do next is all outlined on the page and is essentially nothing. Though signing up to habbox does seem a little pointless unless you're asked to do so as a staff member.

    Would imagine so, don't see any reason why people would need an account

    last I remember registration was disabled for like 3 years

    will contribute briefly

    - Forum
    - could do with dedicated staff members that are capable and display initiative. moderators should participate within the community more, this department has gone from the best to the worst in a few years after a few successive managers have refused to bother doing anything other than administration or get involved only where they are told to do so. when forum is dead (which it is almost always these days) the arcade is where people go to - put some more effort into that.

    - Comps
    not a department that interests me. competitions are babyish and replies to them mirror that. nice to have there.

    - Articles
    getting better, need proper proofreading that isn't just correcting spelling - hire an editor or something capable of rewriting articles with a good premise that are incoherent. conversation starters are a nice addition, hope to see more.

    - Help Desk
    too many staff that don't know what they're doing or how to entertain community. single most asked question is how do i become a citizen and outside of that many staff are out of their depth. needs more ipad support and some knowledge of furniture. also noticed that lately staff are technologically incompetent, don't know how to do basic wired things and don't know rare values other than "i'll just check habbox". need more hxhd staff with their fingers on the pulse and less with their thumbs up their arses.

    game area in hxhd would be nice, same as dj area. design is too dark.

    - Radio
    hours are low, djs are becoming more and more incompetent. awards show was unplanned and a mess. miss weekly shows, would like more themed shows and more interdepartmental work.

    - Content
    no comment as i have literally no idea what this dept contributes to habbox other than writing wiki pages but not keeping them updated

    - Rare Values
    could be dispersed into various other departments. trading and furni experts in hxhd, content writers with passion for history in content/articles. slightly redundant but not completely if the reforms go well.

    - Graphics
    great department, agree with dbgtz about staff not doing anything in forum. back when we were active in the graphics forums we would see staff and lots of other users who made things almost weekly in order to improve their craft. would like to see some pixel art or photoshop guides that aren't the classic how to draw a sphere - how to enlarge a habbo is one that i made a while ago and it inspired a lot of people to give it a go. think the image i posted was of a Lert enlarged, that tutorial is long lost tho. image packs would be cool too, different facial features or hand positions etc.


    - Events
    advertise outside of habbox. weekly events r kwl.

    Agree 100%, the staff members atm are not dedicated and either cba doing their jobs or don't have the time to do their jobs effectively and it makes the forum one of the worst run departments on Habbox when it's by far the most used and community-facing departments.

    Moderators should (if not already) be given the option of which section to moderate and pick one that they're actually interested in. Having moderators who don't actually post in the section is a bit silly. They should also be encouraged to post some threads etc to keep their section popular.

    Arcade - at least game wise - is down to Wispur but they still have every opportunity to host tournaments, offer rewards for various different criteria and actually organise the categories.


    - Comps
    not a department that interests me. competitions are babyish and replies to them mirror that. nice to have there.

    Similarly I don't use competitions, but it's nice they're actually putting their neck into the Arcades and recently had a competition for a game. More forum events please!!

    - Articles
    getting better, need proper proofreading that isn't just correcting spelling - hire an editor or something capable of rewriting articles with a good premise that are incoherent. conversation starters are a nice addition, hope to see more.

    Agreed with proofreading, I've noticed quite a few mistakes and I don't look for them it's just something you come across (don't hate @lawrawrrr; I just have a keen eye for detail).

    Would be nice if articles staff actually replied to their threads though, it just seems a case of Post and bail from what I've seen.


    - Help Desk
    too many staff that don't know what they're doing or how to entertain community. single most asked question is how do i become a citizen and outside of that many staff are out of their depth. needs more ipad support and some knowledge of furniture. also noticed that lately staff are technologically incompetent, don't know how to do basic wired things and don't know rare values other than "i'll just check habbox". need more hxhd staff with their fingers on the pulse and less with their thumbs up their arses.

    game area in hxhd would be nice, same as dj area. design is too dark.

    Too many staff in general, why do they need 18 staff members?!?!

    They do seem to be younger people or fakes (act about 12 claim to be 28) who have no idea what they're doing if I'm being honest, surely as help desk staff it would be better to hire older people who have experience on the hotel. Not people who have accounts created a month or so ago..

    I'd completely agree with the new iOS Apps, it's a commonly asked question 'how do I do x on iPad/iPhone' and the answer is always I don't know I don't have an x device.

    I remember when people used to have to actually answer questions to get a job and have thorough understanding of at least basic safety. Now even that's rare to find amongst staff.


    - Radio
    hours are low, djs are becoming more and more incompetent. awards show was unplanned and a mess. miss weekly shows, would like more themed shows and more interdepartmental work.

    Awards show was just disgusting, but I don't listen to the radio other than that so no idea.

    - Content
    no comment as i have literally no idea what this dept contributes to habbox other than writing wiki pages but not keeping them updated

    That is what they contribute, editing wiki.

    - Rare Values

    Seems unlikely given laura just posted job openings for RV dept.

    Have no interest in graphics or the section but seems like a department that needs to calm down as it was only them who got riled up over the Content Week.

    also, with regards to HxHD

    Since when were staff so actively allowed to break the rules?

    Over the past few weeks I've seen countless Senior staff members as well as Manager and others avoiding the filter. Surely they should be setting an example...

    Don't worry this isn't one of those immature manager moments, taking offence and responding accordingly - just wanted to ask what you mean by babyish? If you mean the competitions themselves, some of which being somewhat basic - we do have more complex competitions where more thought-out entries are required too. We have to try and accommodate for both new, young members and those older ones who have been here a while, that's why we do also have competitions which are admittedly sometimes cringingly basic and silly.

    Genuinely interested to know what you think as any feedback can be used to better the department.

    @scottish in reply to you wanting forum events - something larger scale will be taking place soon which I think lots of people will be getting involved with. I am also in the stage of planning another graphics based forum event with Drew, we are in the midst of working out the details at the moment. There is also an experimental event (quite excited/nervous about this one) aimed towards the current community that I will be doing when an appropriate period of time opens up! There's a lot planned for the next few months and it's all just a matter of finalising and then working out just when we can fit it all in.
