Do something BIG Habbox!

[MKR&*42]

Magazine gonna need a lot of people to help work on it as last time people just got lazy which is why it failed ultimately. It's a good idea if people do actually committed to it :}

I wonder how much the wiki cost? I doubt it's a lot but a bit lol. It does have 6k images on it. I don't even know if that's a lot either.

There isn't a cost to the wiki - Not sure why you think there would be unless you think each Habbox site has it's own separate hosting package?

The Wiki doesn't take up a huge amount of space and seeing as we have tons of room on the server then it's not that much of a problem. If I remember rightly we have the following hard drives (2x 1TB and 1x 120GB SSD) and I would say we use around 32GB for files/system, 23GB for databases and 23GB for website files.

I'm I just speaking to a wall?

If Habbox don't include rares in V7, that's one less thing to focus on when there's site coders. Surely there's loads of people willing to work at Habbox fgs.

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

So why don't we just scrap every department and keep only one, then it'll much easier to focus on just one thing.. I think you're missing the point. This thread is about how to bring more people to Habbox. Scrapping Rare Values seems to me like one less reason for people to come to Habbox?

Anyway, as already mentioned by @Bertie; (never thought I'd be saying that!) the results of the last survey actually showed a considerable interest remains in the Rare Values section of Habbox and the uses go far beyond LTDs and teleporters! Have you ever tried choosing the right rare to invest in? Try doing that with just the marketplace, where all you can see is the last 30 days of values. Habbox on the other hand provides a lot more information and goes back over a year (and although we can't see it, the graphs can go back since the beginning of v6 if I'm not mistaken as I remember someone extended the graphs for a short period of time recently to see the Thrones value over that 3 year period), and I know I'm not the only one that finds it extremely useful if not interesting too. What about all the items that are not listed in the marketplace? There is currently 2646 items listed, but on Habbo there's in excess of 4500 items - that's over 2000 items on Habbox Rare Values that you can not currently find through the marketplace.

Having said that, I have no problem with another survey being done if that's what people want to see. But my question is, why Rare Values and not any other department? Is it just because you'd like v7 to be released quicker or is there more to it? I'll also just add that for the past 20 months the Rare Values department has set a new record for that month on the amount of values updated, with almost 3000 updates since the beginning of this year despite the relatively small department. If anyone wants me to post the graphs then just ask .

Getting rid of rares could result in v7 faster which means more interest in that site which means more members. But don't worry, it's not your fault you've been fixed with the worst department.

I don't want HxR but I think it's pointless but that's just me.

So the only reason was to speed up v7? @Recursion; said a few pages back that scrapping Rare Values right now would have no benefit . But anyway, what makes it 'the worst department'?

[FlyingJesus]

A survey asking Habbox users if they use Habbox is not really proof of the necessity of a defunct department. It is essentially, as your post really shows, a museum; s something of a fossil myself I am well able to to recognise such a thing

I don't know the stats for each department but rares seem to be the least used department. I'm not sure but it's down near the bottom.
