Bring Back HabboxTV

[Lewis]

I was like 12

you can't leave me on that cliffhanger, make the next episode

I'm not against giving it a go but personally I think Habbox needs to improve as it is now before bringing in another department. Not that I'm saying Habbox is bad or anything but it's not as big as it was when I joined in 2010 and throughout 2011 and maybe even 2012. 2013 just wasn't a good year and Habbox kinda went into a slump. I think it's doing so well right now and it's on its way back up to the top. I just think we should just keep going in the direction that we are going and then, when we're ready, throw in something like HabboxTV to mix it up

what's to say this wont help improve? if we get some good stuff up on the site it might bring interest from other client people

If it was done these days, the quality would have to be much better, and personally, I think the interest would be there if it was done for the forum and about people on the forum, rather than a Habbo soap type thing. I think it was wixard that managed to create those flash things that went down well?

I don't think the quality would be an issue at all as long as they were entertaining in the writing - people love things that are horrendous, as proved in your next sentence about Tara's flash things that were made from a "type words here" website

Yeah it could improve the site I understand the point don't get me wrong. But I think the current departments needs all the attention from GM as they can without them trying to set up something new

[FlyingJesus]

idk, if HxTV was done well and not with the same writing "quality" as the news department it could give Habbox an edge that other fansites don't have. We used to be the place to go for rare values but since no-one except the rare values team cares about that any more we could really do with a new gimmick

[Yupt]

I'm sure there were plans for this not long ago, or at least lots of support if not actual plans

This is often the case - so many plans, so much support, little outcome.

I don't think this is the case with this idea, I was talking about it only yesterday and plans seem to be moving along nicely. HabboxTV was briefly revived when Sammeth. was in charge of the Productions department and the reason it died out was that the work involved in it is immense. It could fall into that trap again but Habbox needs something unique that distinguishes them from other fansites and while HxTV isn't a unique idea, it is something we can show off. Yeah the videos aren't going to be winning any Oscars any time soon but it'd be good to show them off and the odd series might actually gain some sort of a following.

oh crap wrong account LMAO

[FlyingJesus]

Back to my point about it not being run like news

[Jurv]

they can leave it to the department managers, it's what they're there for!

i can't imagine general management making any major changes with departments anytime soon so something like this would be cool

[Judas]

oop lmao

Well I just went searching and it turns out I've been asking for HxTV to come back since 2008, I was 13 LMAO.
