Only seems to be one member who's an issue and doesn't follow the criteria of being management for a year+ tbh.

Just ensure everyone whos on the list has been there for 1yr+ no breaks in their management position and it'll be easily fixed.

thats the argument laura brought up though, it shouldnt be just for managers and thats whats being changed

The criteria is fine as it is. Simple, objective criteria with enough wiggle room for a subjective look at individual cases. Obviously it can't cover everyone and yes some people in the group would've contributed more than others but you're never going to get around that. The moment you start saying 'they don't deserve it' even though they fit the criteria is the moment you start overcomplicating something that doesn't need to be.

[scottish]

the person that seems to have been brought up hasn't met the criteria or anywhere near it though?

So what's the justification for single cases that don't meet the criteria? what's the reason for them being on it?

I just don't think 'being manager for a year' is good enough to merit 'habbox merit' (no pun intended). It should be done on contributions and have nothing to do with your position.

It should be based on their whole time throughout Habbox, people such as Samantha. she did 104 events in a month, such consistency ran for months on end not to mention her DJ work, anyway that was just an example btw, first person deserving in my head.

As people have said, it's all opinion based which makes it an issue. I don't see hosting 104 events in a month as anything special. That's just over 3 events a day, I know plenty of people that used to play Habbo for 3+ hours a day every day.

Of course, you then want criteria which means you don't rely on opinions - but then that means you introduce the problem of people getting credited for just being there for a long time.

There's no easy solution. Not that it really matters that much, the majority of people awarded with the merit don't even use the forum anymore, and it doesn't provide any benefits other than a userbar and access to a forum of people with the same userbar (which these days, would only be the few members?).

True which then means you have to consider whether you'd rather have:

a) headache at all the arguments over who's worthy.
b) very few minority of people getting recognition for 'coasting along'

I choose b.

Whilst b is better than a, I'm sure with a few people thinking about it there is a better option.
