Meh, I just hibernated for a day. It would of been good if a small Today Message was posted saying "Yes, the forum is down due to unknown technical difficulties" - though I suspect that there aren't alot of people with those rights to make the adjustments. Ah well, it's in the past now It was Domain Name Servers though, judging by what OpenDNS had to say, why I wouldn't know

Ryan, every manager has access to Habbox Today, so that's inexcusable. I know it's in the past now and no action happened but that doesn't make it OK. Not one member of management from AGM - department managers who were online made a move to let the hundreds of people who use the forum daily know. It would have taken a couple of minutes to post a Habbox Today saying: "Unfortunately the forum is down to unforeseen circumstance, it'll be back up ASAP. Thanks for your patience and sorry for any inconveniece caused." They didn't have to know why the forum was down to post such a simple message which would allow people to know.

As well as that there were many people in HxHD asking why. I expected to see at least a member of senior management in there who people would at least recognise telling people it'll be back as and when is possible. I'm suprised nobody used common sense and tried to take control of the situation. Sure it was out of their hands but doing nothing isn't the answer either, funnily enough.

Ah right, then it is inexcusable I had this idea that whoever is in charge disliked the idea of Management having such rights, due to trust issues (even though if you have people at the top, they should be trustable and it's not like a rogue manager is going to do much damage). A simple message should of been posted, no news could of meant hackings, domains expiring, server crashes, vB fraud squads and anything. Tis better to elimate speculation, rather than let people feed off it. It doesn't even have to be the FM, anyone could of done it really. If no-one is in the know, then anyone could post the information. Relying on Jin, which in itself is a bit difficult most of the time anyway, isn't a good idea.

Actually Matt does not have access to Habbox Today as it has not yet been sorted. I have access however as I was away at the time the Forum was down I was not aware there was an issue. Of course I may not have posted anything on Habbox even if I was online, the fact is we all make mistakes and we learn from them - we will learn from this situation and that is the most important thing we can do. Again, if I was not away at the time I may well have ventured to HxHD however you cannot expect a member of management to spend their whole day on Habbo telling people that the Forum will be back asap. I do not disagree that perhaps we could of done more in the situation and I can assure you that we will make sure we do our best to make people aware of what is going on in as best we can in the future.

I was in HxHD, in fact Lost_Witness came in to ask why it was down so he's my back up yeah! I must admit I do have access to HxToday but it completely passed my mind. But at the end of the day now its been bought up we can make sure it doesn't happen in the future. Rather than keep hanging onto what should have happened, as we've already been told what should have happened a million times, focus more on the fact we've now said that will change and won't happen again. If we keep hanging onto the past it will never die and it gets to the stage where it isnt even helpful anymore. We get it!

Edit: Actually I just tried logging into Habbox and I can't, blates could have used that as an excuse instead of my darn truthtelling :@

Where does it say that?

Its just a rule Sulake have, hence why no staff are (Publicaly) registered to forum UNLESS its for a habbo community purpose, such as the question forum we had.
