Rule Change Feedback

[Phil]

this could've been tackled by allowing -reps to remove green display points. You can't really police what people find rep worthy.

While I see what you're saying, people are still getting +rep for being rude, bullies etc. which is just encouraging them.

THIS IS SO IRRELEVANT TO THE THREAD

PMQs have nothing to do with Corbyn (well he's involved in them now I guess) they've been going for hundreds of years PLUS I had this name before he was even elected was just waiting until I was back to post it

ps thanks i'm doing a series of my habbo in high-art settings whenever I have time

[Inseriousity.]

lol its not irrelevant. i added 'and now no personal attacks' so its about the rules (im fine with it although that sort of thing happens more on Habbo than the forum and more difficult to police).

I meant crowdsourcing the questions to the public and getting people to send them in which is what Corbyn did on Wednesday's PMQs. it was a terrible political joke really

there's nothing wrong with that, I doubt someone's going to say something rude in order to get rep.. and it's the users right to rep what they find rep worthy

There's nothing wrong with encouraging it? Okay?! So if someone made a hurtful comment towards you, it would be okay for them to be rewarded by other members via +rep?

yes that's their right
you can't police what people think is worthy of a +rep

you shouldnt have been removing them unless they were reported by the user that received them

I do not understand you lot sometimes, this has been brought up by members many times before

"Accusing others of breaking national law is not allowed: defamation and libel will not be tolerated on Habbox, and any serious claims of a member breaking the law of their country or that of Habbox's base (the United Kingdom) should be forwarded immediately to the General Manager, lawrawrrr who will assess claims and take it forward with the relevant authorities if necessary. Posting "evidence" of claims without first speaking to the General Manager may result in an infraction or warning, or further (if your post is defamatory or libellous). Such laws include (but are not limited to):"

makes me think the forums a bit of a joke tbh

I can bet almost everyone on HxL is breaking copyright/piracy laws, please forward this to the relevant authorities.

hell habbox used to host the illegal executable for SAM Broadcaster until an incident many years ago.

yes, and if I made a hurtful comment towards them I would be fine with the rep I receive.

yes it was mentioned we should change the +rep counter to negate -rep to avoid that issue, not remove the rep ;l

A1. Respect other forum members ~ Forum members are to be respectful of others at all times. Bullying and victimising will not be tolerated on the forum and attempting to cause arguments among others is not permitted. Disagreement of opinions is often the main source of arguing and therefore any comments or insults that directly offend a user on a personal level will be removed.

Isn't this the point of debates, I can see "you're completely wrong" turning into a A1 warning/infraction

A2. Do not post inappropriately ~ Habbox Forum has an audience that includes younger members, and as such all content must be suitable for those members. You must not post images, videos or links with inappropriate content like gore, nudity or any topics deemed offensive. Mildly inappropriate content (never anything rated 18+) is allowed where sufficient warning is added into the post and any image or link is placed within a badspoiler tag. The final decision on what is or is not inappropriate is at Moderator's discretion.

The rule states that but summary of changes states you need badspoiler for anything 18+, so what is it, 18+ with badspoiler or never anything 18+?

So we can post annoying as hell spam popups and rick rolls again?

A3. Do not avoid the forum filter ~ Mild swearing is allowed on the Forum however is limited to certain words. Click here to see what is and isn't acceptable. Purposely avoiding the forum filter is not allowed and adding single letters so that users can clearly recognise what the filtered word is (such as "t***") is an example of this rule break. Any swear words that are used to attack or insult users will be removed as a breach of rule A1. Users can turn off the forum filter by following these instructions: (UserCP > Edit Profile > Edit Profanity Filter).

You shouldn't include instructions in the rule, you should have a 'Click here' similar to the Click here to see what is/isn't acceptable.

A4. Do not accuse others of scamming or hacking or any illegal activity without evidence ~ making baseless accusations leads to arguments and often members being targeted, as well as being illegal itself in many countries. We do not allow you to accuse anyone of hacking, scamming or activities which break the Habbo Way without legitimate evidence. All evidence is to be submitted to a Super Moderator or member of Forum Management before being posted. If evidence is not provided or deemed to be fake or insufficient then any posts or threads regarding that topic will be removed.

Accusing others of breaking national law is not allowed: defamation and libel will not be tolerated on Habbox, and any serious claims of a member breaking the law of their country or that of Habbox's base (the United Kingdom) should be forwarded immediately to the General Manager, lawrawrrr who will assess claims and take it forward with the relevant authorities if necessary. Posting "evidence" of claims without first speaking to the General Manager may result in an infraction or warning, or further (if your post is defamatory or libellous). Such laws include (but are not limited to):
Paedophilia and child sex laws
Copyright law
Pirating software and files
Revenge pornography

Already said this rule seems stupid..

A5. Do not post private details or information ~ We do not allow you to post private information about yourself due to security concerns. Disclosing any information about another forum user without their consent is also not allowed. This includes:
Private messages relating to Staff issues or details regarding staff-only matters**
Private conversations where no consent from all parties is provided (both from the forum and / or other platforms)
Images / videos of the user or links to a page where an image/video of another user is located (this includes social networking sites, facebook, myspace etc)
It is also not allowed to give out the personal details (specific address, phone number etc) of anyone, forum user or otherwise.

** Information regarding warnings, infractions and/or dismissal reasons are deemed confidential and will not be disclosed by Moderators or Management. If recipients choose to share details regarding any disciplinary action, then the confidentiality is considered broken and Moderators or Management are allowed to share information/comment on the issue. Additionally, you are allowed to post pictures of yourself and use them as your profile picture, avatar and as a signature image. You may also share your email address and social networking profiles on the forum.

has this rule ever been enforced? the amount of times I've posted private convos without permission
