Hx Room Idea

[beth]

i wouldn't use it (mainly because i don't play habbo) but i think it would be a very good idea for new users.
if habbox still has a trade room (does it?!?!) there could be a link to that on the rare value pages too.

Sort of but Dans doing something with it, and when its open its not very busy

I picked all the trade room the other day. We got it really popular like 6/8 months ago did my a Roxy but then we just lost interest with it, it's a really hard thing to keep popular. I had that room for a year and basically ALL my stuff was in there, so i've taken it down. I'm building something new, but i doubt my new room will have ties with Habbox.

oh, well it was just an idea to get it more popular really ha, but if it's gone then no point. just thought it would raise some business if people could check their values and then click a little picture LIKE *** TRADE ERE XOXOX

I really like the idea of a button to link to HxHD on the site, and will talk to Oli and David and see if we can get it sorted! It's our main official room on the client, and I agree it should be advertised on the site more and new users made aware of it as much as possible. Shouldn't be too hard to do really.

EOs are advised to book their events days or even weeks in advance. This means they would either have to think about what room they'd be using upon booking (which is absolutely stupid because nobody should be expected to plan what room they'll be using that far out), or get back to us nearer the time of their event. If they tell us just before their event, they'd have to tell us exactly which event is was for (as many have multiple), and I daresay some Organisers would change, so we'd have to edit it.

It's a brilliant idea, don't get me wrong, but it's just so impractical. Perhaps if we were having 2 or 3 events a day then sure, but we're having a lot more than that lately and it just wouldn't work.

Surely if they were able to update it by themselves on the site if David was to make something then it would only take about 10 seconds to copy and paste the link to their room just before their event?

I personally think that's a good idea like Calvin said

EOs aren't allowed to add their own events to the site, forum etc for a couple of a reasons.

One is that the event might not be suitable or permitted. For example two of the same event or a banned event (even though atm this is only Cozzie Change)

Another is that if they were to put events up on the site no one would be notified and it would be organised inefficiently with who got the time first, who's allowed that etc. etc. whereas a group of 4 who can edit it is far more reasonable.

In addition, it'd be foolish to give the whole department EOs only moderation rights for both the forum and site. They can be abused easily and "what about just the site?" I hear you cry, it still means the SEOs have to add them to the forum and it makes it so complex.

I don't know if this has been suggested, but also a button linking to the Hxl current party room would be nice

This really. We don't want to be handing out permissions to everyone, and if people are booking stuff at the same time/lagging out/confused over booking etc it just creates a big mess. Having experienced people sorting out the overall booking experience (Management and Seniors) makes it far easier for things to be sorted, and there's also the issue of trust etc. In regards to being able to click on events rooms I personally can't see this happening- due to a number of the reasons posted above. It's not really been an issue before, and whilst it would have been handy, there are so many events per day/events organisers etc that searching names becomes a habbit after a while.


In regards to the HxHD link on the site, I've spoken to Oli and it was originally meant to be on the site but it seems wasn't included with the release. I will speak to Oli and David further about getting something sorted soon.
