HxHD Changes

[Alex3213]

Yeah I was speaking to Roxy today and she reminded me of what Dan2nd used to do as manager
He used to have this guess the password game on where members would ask HxHD staff a question and we could give a clue towards the password.
Things like this, and quests and such could really work well in HxHD

Dan2nd was a fantastic manager on the community side of things and I hope to God HxHD management take a leaf out of his book.

There are measures in place to remove staff who don't pull their weight, in every department whether there is a ranked structure or not there are slackers, more often then not you find senior staff slacking because they class themselves above the others, I could give you numerous examples of this happening with roles such as Senior DJ, Head DJ, Forum Super Moderator, Expert RV, Head RV, and most importantly Super Staff

Trust me, this is where the slacking will start. Normal staff will have no goal to work towards so they'll just give up and give their bare minimum effort. I know that isn't how staff should act but it is and it's obvious. When I worked for habboxlive it was the exact same thing, when people got to head dj they gave up and slacked, then when a manager left they jump back onto the wagon to 'fight' for the position among other head djs. It's just going to be the exact same with the hxhd. The room is popular now because it always is when big changes happen. In a week or so I don't think the room will be as popular as you thought it'd be.

Couldn't agree more, a friendly, non-bias person always willing to take one for the team and help out users and really contributed massively to the community during both spells of his management.

If staff slack they will be fired, simple.

i think the reason jake is so upset is cus he's just lost his senior role in the team, i'd be annoyed aswell? otherwise the changes sound good.

For the sense that there is no senior role in hxhd under managerial, yes you could say that we are normal staff now. But as pointed out various times nothing has been taken away from our jobs. To make things appear in a different light, think of it that the normal staff were promoted to super staff and so forth the name has changed to normal staff.

I'm on my phone so I cant really quote as easy as I could if I were on a computer, but for the 'imagine this was a real life job' comment: this role is voluntary, we are not being payed. If we were payed and having only one role meant my wages were spread out, heck I'd be complaining too. However this is not the case. There Is reasoning behind this you know, having all staff with super staff powers means that the room is now much more efficient. In the old system if normal staff were in the desk and something which needed rights was required then ss would have to come in. The new system means we can work closer together and we can be much more efficient in how we progress as a department.

Wow, what great motivation. "Work or get fired." Seems more of a threat to me? I swear first it was loosing a rewarding user rank system and now this. Something wrong with rewarding users/staff?

Completely agree with your post actually
I wish I could remember everything that Dan2nd and you did as managers but I remember there was a lot and it was popular the whole way through!

If I work for a voluntary local fm radio, got a high position and the exact same thing happened I'd still be pissed. It's not whether it's voluntary or not, I imagine Jake feels "robbed" of his position. I know that sounds silly but take some time to think about where he may be coming from before replying. Again, I'm not saying he's right, I can just understand why he's annoyed.

That's how life works I'm afraid, work well - you get rewarded, we have various reward systems in place here at Habbox. If you don't work well you are warned and eventually will be removed from the job.
