What could Habbox do with/without?

[Inseriousity.]

well motm is more general, putting a spotlight on actual threads rather than members could improve thread creation or will at the very least reward people who are making that effort.

That's what MOTM is for though.

There'd be no point having SOTM then 'Staff member who done their job the best of the month' as well.

If they make good popular threads then that should have a major impact on their eligibility for MOTM award.

Obviously it's all at the discretion of the mods picking them.

but motm doesnt highlight that. motm has always been more general contribution rather than simply creating threads and I think we should do more to highlight those threads.

it's not like that example at all. it'd be more like saying:

x got SOTM
x got heavily involved with the dept event.
y had a good idea, we're going to go with this next month.

so x won the overall, general contribution but y is highlighted. similar principle but with interesting threads as the focal point.

MOTM is meant to encompass everything though.

I don't see the point in having an individual award for most interesting (most interesting to whom?) why stop there, may as well give out the most viewed thread, most active (posts) thread, funniest thread, and so on.

my other post got updated when I multiple posted btw.

Bring back Habbox mini games and HXTV!!!1!

What's mini games? And HxTV would be great if there were people dedicated to doing it. A group of us were going to do it independently a few years back to show Habbox what they're missing out on but it fell apart because people couldn't be bothered, and considering that was a group who had a personal interest in that specifically and no other roles I can't see it being a success with the current set of staff and their... dedication

Radio should focus more on quality than quantity. No offence to "DJ's" who stream, but I don't tune in to listen to music I don't like without something else to go with it. I also feel this was evident with the awards night show which seemed rather messy.

Yeah the awards show was a total shambles lol and I agree that normal shows should have people talking to make it more interactive and interesting, but for blank slots I think streaming is useful just so that we avoid hours and hours of silence

That's what MOTM is for though.

Thread creation =/= good interaction or overall worth though, someone could make a great thread with loads of discussion but not be actually taking part themselves past creation, which shouldn't then make them eligible for MOTM really. I'm not convinced that we really need an extra award added for making "interesting" threads, but there is a definite difference between that idea and MOTM. That aside, would be nice to see MOTM taking more things than post count into consideration

God knows how (when they rarely actually do) they come up with MOTM but I doubt post count is a large part of that or I'd win 98% of MOTM's for the past 6 months.

There's definitely is no need for more awards though.

I wonder how much months of VIP were given out per month in 2014

[FlyingJesus]

RNG for the top 5 posters, after taking out anyone they don't like

[Inseriousity.]

I never said anything about a VIP reward for it. It's just recognising the threads that create a discussion. as you say with MOTM there is no clear guidance as to why winners have been chosen (for instance ive never won it once and im amazing). and yes you could create a reward for all of those examples you mentioned but as the forum is more about thread creation and discussion I'd use that as the most important that we should give extra credit for.

or we could rework the MOTM system so that it takes that into account and there's an actual reason behind people winning MOTM?

[Inseriousity.]

still wouldnt be highlighting them though. the whole purpose of the idea was to shine a spotlight onto these threads.
lmao if you want to delay motm further by making them give a reason then dont complain when its late
