HxHD changed into a lounge?

[Alex3213]

What do you mean by a lounge though? :S

Which is exactly what the help desk except for you can mingle and be helped there.

I think people's anger is more aimed t the fact the department has a fair few staff members, who do nothing and are there for one thing and on thing only. Power.

That problem has generated to the point - the staff aren't needed, so why have a help desk? They were '2006' era and hardly anybody uses them now.

Even the desk is changed into the lounge staff will be needed to moderate the room for the same reasons I've stated that Management shouldn't need or have to.

HxHD is a lounge, except it has a little area where staff can sit behind. And if you're saying staff are always inactive, PM HotelUser? And as Alex said, there will still be users needed to moderate the room even if they do change it into a lounge.

But as I said, what do you mean by a lounge, just change the name?

DEPARTMENT (so let's not start talking about Oli who is not a department manager) imo should have rights in HxHD and be around there.

And HxHD staff are supposed to be able to 'help' people. The fact that many of the staff don't should mean they should be let off their jobs at habboxforum.

HxHD used to be needed. Not it isn't - HxHD staff are not needed. Don't worry though David - you could always be lounge manager or something

Anyway I know it isn't being changed in to a lounge just giving my thoughts anyway :L

In my personal opinion Oli is a Department Manager as he is listed on the (Assistant) Department Managers list, and controls his staff. I do think if HxHD still is a Help Desk, help must come first. HxHD is still needed because there are still people who do come in: and if all the staff can go onto that safety aspect then it's needed even more. My thoughts also.

TO EVERYONE WHO WANTS A LOUNGE:

What do you mean by a lounge? Remove the staff area, what?

As Oliver will tell you because it's no secret, he is a department manager, in the sense that the forum is a department and he manages it. He has no jurisdiction over any other Habbox departments, just like nobody else has jurisdiction over his department.

AND if you dare say that this poll is not a real representation of what the people want, because HotelUser said something like "not everyone who visits HxHD knows about the forum or the poll", then you should create a more public and advertised poll to see what the public truly want.

I think it's bad that management get say over the people. It's our community?

We're not listening to the people?

It seems like the room's pretty popular right now. Perhaps we're not listening to the people you want us to listen to

This is exactly what I was trying to get at!

I said to myself I wouldn't get involved in this because people who have no idea i.e. Skizzling are replying pretending they've used HxHD for more than 6 months but whatever. It's a hard decision. I think it should stay as it is. HxHD is part of Habbox, it's part of Habbox's history - it has been there since 2004 or so and never 'died'. It has been up and down. I think the things you have to remember are:

1) It is busy at the moment and has shown no signs of declining in popularity... "don't fix what isn't broken" - cliche I know.

2) Forum users who don't use the Help Desk aren't representative of the HxHD users - most people that use HxHD won't reply here.

3) You can use HxHD as you want. I use it as a chill lounge, as do a lot of others. You don't have to require help to go in there and chat.

Keep it as it is.

Please look at my joined date, if you could actually count then you would notice i've been here for 2 years.

You can use the Help Desk how you want it. So if you want it to be a lounge room, then have it like a lounge room. If we said "Yes", not much would change. A name change? None/Small staff area? Less Rules? Most or nearly all want a lounge because you did not like how you were treated for breaking rules and also complained how the rules were strict compared to other fansite rooms. This is why HxHD is currently going through rule changes to make it more better and less strict for you.

Great, listen to the people then. We want a lounge, but you just don't listen.

We did listen and we thought otherwise. There is no actual reason to change it fully to a lounge with the reasons explained above and the reasons other members have also explained in this thread against it.
