I decided to edit my post actually

It's currently being coded now actually. In the past work on the new version of the site has been piss poor because nobody bothered to work on it. That's not the case now though. It's beeing coded now although atmiddidly communication could improve between who's doing the coding and who should be helping and I'm working on that.

The only thing I'm coding right now is the site. I am quite busy with other things now which is why the need for a HxHD Assistant was necessary so that should give me more free time to focus on coding too. It's already functional though, a lot of tasty features just need to be added to it.

Totally agree. The 'new website' does seem to be a lot of the same thing that happened with the rare values panel that took like 2 years to make (or more?) It's all when and good having the ideas, but ideas need to turn in to action.

The RV panel took much much longer than 2 years, i think Dan (undertaker) was told he was getting a new panel the first time he was manager. But in the end, once we got Ryan (Blob) and then our other site coders things started moving and the panel got made in a matter of weeks.

Work has been slow on V6 up till now but i assure you work has now been started and the turn around will be fast i am sure, there is a full features list and spec which is being worked through.

A good thing about Habbox this year is the amazing team of site coders we have, back in 2008 when i was RV manager things took ages to get done but now we have such a good team of site coders everything gets done to how you want it and fast.

I'm totally against the whole idea of forcing staff to post. We're told to try and remain active around the forum and, on the most part, we are. In terms of News Staff posting in the forums that include News I see where you're coming from but, in my opinion, if you want to see what I think about something... you can read my reports on the site and comment on them there. I'd more than happily engage in healthy debate on a News Report and I know other reporters would too.

The spam threads are fantastic and I first encountered it when I was Sammeth's assistant in Productions. It allowed the staff to gel, talk about their personal lives, and created a more 'family' feel. Taking this out would mean that staff would interact less (not everyone is on MSN 24/7) and make departments very clinical.
