    Its hardly a lie now is it :rolleyes:

    Did I say Jord did nothing wrong? no He was rude and its fairly obvious, Although other people troll, He shouldnt (defiantly not being a moderator) Although It hasn't stopped moderators and higher doing it previously I wish he hadn't of done it.

    My debate skills (yn)
    btw I dont have GCSE's :S obviously failed at reading in our last argument

    Well yes actually it is a lie, regardless of what emotes you post

    You may not have said Jord did nothing wrong but you were suggesting that it wasn't important and he shouldn't be vilified for it, which boils down to the same thing really, and yes I will certainly call your debate skills into question when in one post you slanderously attack someone and then go on to say that bickering and fighting each other should be stopped - if you can't even hold your own position for a single post then you kinda lose all credibility.

    Congratulations on starting another pointless tangent of useless conversation in order to try getting at me though, it's quite impressive how you keep doing that in threads that might otherwise be useful. I would actually like to see something done though, so if you don't mind I'll leave you to play with yourself over just how intellectual you are while I get back to an important point in the real discussion

By having the "comments" sections link directly into the forums (perhaps by having official news threads that can only be made by news staff) it would mean that
    1. People might actually read news articles surely not
    2. Discussions about news stories would be more in depth
    3. People wishing to comment on such things would become members of the community in doing so rather than just a passing figure
    4. There wouldn't be pointless duplications of news reports as there currently is when there's a 2 paragraph report on the site and a 5 page discussion about the story on the forum
    5. People using the main site would be interacting with the forum users, broadening the community


    On the topic of news the articles could also do with some proper editing so that there aren't entire articles written in bold with commas, after every, other word,

    Sorry that I can't work 50 hours a week and work for Habbox too.. It will happen to you too one day I never really login to Habbo though you're right.. but neither did L1C If someone decides to remove my maze to be replaced by an active user, I don't mind. I built my maze for others to enjoy not to pee people off

    I will read the rest of the thread when I get time! Looks like a corker

This isn't Habbox's fault - when the game itself brings its own rare values (effectively), naturally fansite rare values will be given less of a main stage.
    We did a survey in February if I remember correctly to get some feedback as we are always searching for ways to better ourselves. It was pleasing to see that 75% of those surveyed use our service which is great. The survey also gave us a lot of feedback which I have noted and am working on fixing. Although a lot of the improvements are for V7 (which explains why it is taking so long because I compiled a humungous list of coding requests because our system is so out of date).

    To be honest, the best way to value them would be marketplace value - "tax". Maybe as an idea (no doubt for v7!!), Habbox could have a "Suggest Rare Value" button, with a simply form people can write in? Obviously don't pick up those values like gold leaves, but for some values it could be of great use. That could then be used as a "thanks for submitting a rare value. Please sign up to www.habboxforum.com for exclusive leaks of new habbo rares.. (etc etc)"
    That sounds like a good idea and it's not hard, I wouldn't have any reservations about that as it is simply a link and it would promote our Rare Values Suggestions forum too

    Whoa this got busy

    I know this has been said so much, but the problem is Habbox has very litte (not no) unique stuff to offer compared to other fansites. There are a few features that would boost Habbox above, but they simply aren't being improved enough;

    Rares - Please value expensive rares/supers, ltds and teleports only. Unless a large portion of that 20% traffic being for RV is due to searches on normal furniture items, I see no point and would rather keep it as a furni database.
    News - find someway to have it connected to the forum as someone said earlier.
    Events - everyone else has pretty much said what I wanted to.

    Can't really comment on hxl cause I dont tune in that much.

    There are opportunities that habbox simply aren't taking up though - Puhekupla pretty much dominates in 'upcoming habbo features' although sometimes it's posted on Habbox before there, HFFM + TH dominate events & whichever one had a sub-forum for news reporters probably does better off in news. I think both of those sites have a higher listener count as well. Habbox is only really left with trying to improve forum events or focusing on stuff involving Official Habbo Quest/Game answers. Don't see why it hasn't been suggested that there be some form of widget on Habbox.com that provides the answers to latest quests in habbo or stuff, I'm sure that would interest quite a few users considering a) those threads seem to be popular on the forum and b) the 'Answers' group on habbo.com is screwed now cause of no forums.

    From our survey of course people principally use it for that but people also use Habbox as a reassurance because there are so many rigged values. For example, I often see recoloured classic rares that have gone up by 70c because of a rigger and people need something else to go on.

    Regarding the UI, I did ask for the V7 to have a better UI but that will be done without question I'm sure. I do agree it is slow to search and hard to navigate atm.

    We have discussed the furni database idea for a while now and when I became manager it was a time when values were less used because of the MP, hence why I introduced the Furni Editors to make sure furni is up to date and added. A lot of people use Habbox as a furni database as there aren't many others but people also use values, maybe not for all furni but some. I know norm values aren't needed but now we do them, it seems strange to do only some furni and not the others. With our V7 update we will have pages for staff to see Furni not recently updated so we should be more up to date. We will put more emphasis on rares/supers/seasonals etc although we don't really report on norms anyway because the values stay constant.

    -----

    If there are any other issues/queries/suggestions, feel free to message me - Although most improvements will come with V7

    Ah, looks like things around here never change. I can't really comment because I never go on any fansite or forums anymore. But from a quick glance it seems HFFM has improved in activity, not the opposite way round.

    Thus, to say that it is impossible to improve Habbox is stupid. Looks like HabboxLive is doing alright, it could do more and when I visited the perm shows page, sadly I saw none. Also, the actual HxL website looks like a bad nightmare and needs upgrading or merging urgently. Listeners seem not too bad and have improved under Jade. However, I believe HX can still hit 80 + listeners at a regular basis, there just needs to be some fun things advertised clearly, and of course things like perm shows. Also, can we not have these stupid alpha, beta groups listed out on the staff list; sure, have it as your groups but I'd rather have DJs split into UK, International/ North America + Oceania (1 section) on the staff list. Finally, there needs to be something figured out with the high turnover of DJs, it's been a problem for about a year and a bit with 20 DJs coming in and 20 more quitting and being fired, which is really bad! However, I congratulate Jade and Ms. Woodsy for holding it on the right track- keep it up look forward for even more improvements .

    If news (and I don't know this seeing as I don't check and cba to check) still cannot get its act together and get articles posted quite quickly, then yeh close it down and replace it with a bot. It's been like this for a while, so it's silly to keep a department that posts articles 3 days after everyone else has done so. Now don't jump on me, but if all you're doing is rephrasing articles posted days earlier on the forum or by Habbo, then there really is no point. I understand staffing concerns, but in that case have a news feed replace people. It's a shame, but there's no point dragging it on, unless there are substantial plans or efforts going on to turn that around.

    As for the said moderator who said that Habbox is doomed, I'm surprised that you even have a job here with your attitude and your smug comments towards new members is the last anyone should expect from a moderator. I don't see how you can possible defend this "strong opinion" and still believe in HX to stay in your job. That's sheer hypocrisy.

    No as I have seen this at another fansite a while back and nothing changed. It`s nice to see someone who cares about Habbox just as much as I do but making a thread. They can simply contact an administrator maybe and give feedback or something. There is no use to make threads after threads about this situation which it won`t solve anything as you can see with all these users and staff posting. Question is what will this thread do to solve the activity base? To tell you the truth only the user or staff decides if they want to be active. Not making threads about Hey we should make sure everyone is active.

    You have to realise those who are not active are adults who goes to university and don`t have to the time to make events for Habbox or any fansite they worked at! Sad but true.



    Be careful what you wish for!
