HxHD Manager

[Foregetfuhl]

Regardless as to whether or not the person is the department the person who we feel can provide the best possible outcome for the department will be the one to get the job.

I applied but I wish you the best of luck to everyone who applied


It's okay if I don't get chosen, I applied and showed my interest in the role and that is it. I am happy I did express it so they know I want to do changes in the department for the good. I am sure there are people who applied has more experience than me and I understand the situation. I gave my best shot at it like everyone else

I really hope habbox makes the right decision. The help desk is an area which needs a bit of attention. The manager should be willing to put in a lot of time and effort in.
Good luck to everyone applying

Good decision, great to see suggestions are being built on. I'm really interested to see what some members have to offer and what faces start to come out of the woodwork in the hxhd as a result of this opening. Lets see who's showing interest just because of the power and who's showing interest because they're genuinely concerned about the department. You might as well ask whether applicants want to become normal hxhd staff were their management apps unsuccessful, you need more staff

I'm sure if they'd have asked me and Cassie how we'd feel, both of us could be mature enough to accept the other was more suitable and not hold a grudge.

I believe it's less a problem of thinking that one of you would hold a grudge over the other being found suitable and more to do with the fact that neither of you are...


Personally not applying as I'm holding out for events manager to open up

I hardly consider that a fact, tom. That's the way you're seeing things, and it's the way I'm sure many others may see it. That does not mean that neither of us would be able to be in charge, if the situation arose.
I should verily enjoy seeing either myself or Cassie applying and succeeding, to at least show someone the bad brush they're painting us with should be thrown away

[FlyingJesus]

ps your earlier post heavily suggests that you would absolutely hold a grudge against an incoming manager as you clearly feel entitled to the role just by virtue of having a current position in the department

Well that's a completely different thing. I could be in charge if Habbox wanted me too, but it doesn't mean I'm capable of doing it.

I'll be applying cos
ukno
err
senior already

No idea who will actually get it, though. Depends on whether good candidates bother to apply, really.

The fact you are senior already sort of suggests you (and any other seniors) may not be what they are looking for. That isn't mean to be rude, but you do have to ask why they have made the applications public.

Am gonna apply,

IF I WIN THE ELECTION TO BECOME NEXT HXHD THE CHANGES IM GOING TO MAKE

A dedicated day to hate on Comity
Scripting in the room
A christmas theme with thrones and petals and all warmy and homey
A pet pig will be added, His name will be ruffles.

Thanks for your time.

kk, Ross for the new *REMOVED* manager, wait, I mean Habbox.. we need thrones and riches; "newbs" love that sort of thing.

It's an interesting idea doing it like this.

The more Habbo-based the new manager, the better. That's the kind of person we need.

Agreed, need a manager who is active on the forum too though; and one that has ideas. We don't just need someone who can run it; we need someone who can make it exceptionally popular.

I've applied, as I stated some pretty good reasons why with past experience.

Shock.

I'm not limited in managing the News Department, I'm more limited in broaden it out more to the community. I'm currently on limited activity as my Internet is poor to say the least, I then have members of staff not pulling their weight and soon will be dismissed if it continues. However, due to them not doing what is required I then have to do more and more reports with the help of the single staff member attempting to do the work required. I then have all the admin stuff to deal with which I do behind the scenes. This is how I'm limited to taking it to the community more, not managing as I'm doing rather well for the majority. I hope that got my point across?
@Inseriousity.; I do see where you're coming from, and although I am limited (although on different ways to what you believe perhaps), I know I can always do more which is why I valued you as the AGM as you always said that. Sorry if I came off a little too defensive, I honestly didn't mean to as I know what you meant really.

Surely if you are on limited-activity due to poor internet, this is something that is not short term? Internet doesn't just speed up overnight. If so, what makes you capable of being HxHD manager? A job that requires someone on full-activity from the off, not just "limited". I am not saying you shouldn't get the job, as personally it really doesn't affect me who gets it - just think this post is a little contradictory.

I can't really see why they would have done that in our situation and then decided not to do it with me and Cassie: clearly they weren't bothered about feelings before and now they happen to be? I'm sure if they'd have asked me and Cassie how we'd feel, both of us could be mature enough to accept the other was more suitable and not hold a grudge.

To be fair, I don't think feelings are really important in terms of job applications. In fact, I'd go as far as saying they are irrelevant.

Same here, although I was hoping more for an (A)GM role, don't really think my ego would fit inside some standard manager role ;l

Personally, I think it is essential that HxHD brings someone in with original ideas to make the help desk popular, and I mean really popular. Sure, they don't need to all work - but they need enough to keep going until they find something that works. They don't just need to be able to continue what is already there; it needs to be refreshed completely in this respect.

Good luck to everyone who applies, either way.

Oh no, it's just broken at the moment. It's working currently, but goes off usually on the hour for a few minutes (it was down all night yesterday). It will be fixed by Wednesday.
