HxHD Trial

[Inseriousity.]

Having official policies for everything is dumb, I don't really understand everyone's obsession with making rules for every tiny thing. Managers hire/fire/let people return based on the needs of their department, at their own discretion and they should be trusted to get on with that. I don't think there needs to be much of a policy about returning staff (apart from the waiting period so people don't take the piss).

Look at it from Sam's point of view. He's a new manager that has perhaps never experienced working with you before, and you come back asking to be put into one of the most trust worthy roles at Habbox with full rights. Quite rightly, he isn't about to take any risks in allowing you to have full rights in the room when has no knowledge of the way you're going to behave in the room or how your attitude towards users will be. As has happened in the past, trialists have had stinking attitudes and they have been dismissed due to it. The trial is simply a precaution and a method used for you to prove yourself to the new manager. Any manager has the right to do this and I strongly encourage they do so in roles such as this.

Ultimately you have the option to either get on with the trial or leave it here.

I think it's completely up to the manager and I'm sure they have a good reason for choosing to put you on trial. When I was Rare Values Manager a few years ago - note, back when the department had a lot more interest - I put a policy in place which meant that if you resigned, you'd have to come back on trial no matter what your role was (management may have been an exception) and the main reason was that very often we'd have a number of people leaving only to want to return a short while later. I won't name them but there used to be a person who'd return every time a senior position became available and then leave when it was filled by someone else, @-Danube-; will know .. if he ever comes online .

As for a Habbox wide policy, I don't think there should be one tbh. With a department like Rare Values which is struggling for staff I think they should be allowed to return in full staff positions, but not if big changes have been made to the department since they were last there. For example someone who was around when RV was reporting in threads wanting to return now. Also the length of time can make a difference. But then with departments with loads of interest for staff, any regular staff should definitely be put back in as trialists imo but possibly with exceptions for senior staff or management depending on the opinion of the manager hiring them.

Even I know who you mean, he tried it when I went up to manager after you resigned .

The fact that you're annoyed about being put on trial just makes you look power hungry, personally if you refused a trial from me (if I was the manager) I just wouldn't re-hire you

If you plan to stay longer than 1-2 weeks, then why does it matter if you have the word "trialist" in your usertitle? because tbh thats the only difference.

I understand the reasoning, although I feel your trial should only be 2 weeks as opposed to a month due to the fact you've worked there before. Quite simply if you are not prepared to go on a small trial, then why do you deserve to have all the staff privileges. It shouldn't really bother you, the only thing you don't get access to is the ability to kick now (think staff cant mute anymore idk).

It is 2 weeks.

It is 2 weeks.

Oh yeah pmsl sorry I got mixed up with comps x

[LiquidLuck.]

So basically what people are saying is that it's okay to have special treatments? Some staff are allowed to come back fully and others have to take a trial? Sam never worked Rosy, if she wanted to come back, would she be put in a trial as well? @Wispur; @Samanfa; @xxMATTGxx;
@Viba; that's not the only thing as I've stated before.
@lRhyss; If I refused a trial from you, you wouldn't need to re-hire me because I wouldn't have wanted it anyway.. Your statement doesn't make much sense.

It is fine to put people on trial if the manager has never worked with you before. Think it should be a shorter one than trialists though.
