Habbos.net - Phew!

[TopManTim]

HxF and habbos are very different. HxF is strongly a UK only forum however Habbos is internationally popular. It has a great community and always has events running. That's the thing I think HxF could improve on, it's events.


Edit: I don't see how habbos is 'cheating'. As it's internationally popular then users from say AU and SG won't really be on at the same times as the UK users which are currently online.

HxF has international members too though, and with Habbox World closing and the international departments from there coming over here, there'll be more. And HxF doesn't run events 'cos the site does, which Habbos don't have.

No I didn't and I still don't understand what it is lol

Basically the set time until you are removed from the online list after your last action. Ie if you look at this thread and do nothing else after 15 minutes, you will be removed from hxf online list. On say vbulletin.com, you would stay there for another 15 mins.

Yep, the default session is 900 seconds = 15 mins.

On vbulletin default software installation you mean?

Thats not what we are talking about. You seem to be supporting habbos.net when we are not attacking it only discussing session timings. It seems very popular because the users are kept on the online list for 1 hour therefore anyone within that our that visits the forum remains on the list.

In regards to events, our events are advertised on www.habbox.com - our parent site. Hxf is a sister site to Habbox.com.

Not cheating but rather misinforming users that don't know about these things (maybe even Habbo staff who are not vB experts?

Theres no need for you to come and start arguing. We are simply discussing this maturely so please do so yourself.

Whos to say what time is the right time to set it at. Maybe Habbos just wanted to know on an hourly scale as opposed to a fifteen minute one. I don't think users sign up specifically because of how many members are on each forum at a given time as long as their enough for a sense of community. Habbos and Habboxforum have very different purposes in my opinion, i use both for different things.

[MhzT]

I wouldn't say we're misinforming anybody. Firstly, staff aren't concerned by numbers and are interested solely in content. There's no value in having 5 million posts if they're all non-constructive, afterall!

Having timeout set to an hour just means that people don't have to log in as often and it makes administration easier too. Much less time spent searching for people in admin cp... yes, I'm that lazy. We'd orginally changed it to see how we compared to another forum and after a positive response from our users, it stayed that way.

Habbos and HxF have very different purposes and audiences but I shalln't go into that, hehe.

Thanks for the comments.
