Hasn't always been though i can name 2-3 scammers in some of the old moderation group...

But for example the moderation team within Habbox is reliable and trusted.

Think about that.

If it was shortlisted, no doubt the Managers and assit will be thought of first before the Mods and other staff. And just 'cos you've managed to get a forum job as a moderator doesn't mean you should be given a job in-client.
I can't wait for all this to be real so many other debates will come! lol XD

But that just proves, its not always reliable. it is at the current moment but that doesn't mean anything

But surely Habbo would put those within a moderation job on an "official" fansite infront of those who apply with everybody else due to the elevated position of trust?

LOL ... funny how a Habbox moderator suggests that the Habbox moderators should become Guardians!

A system like the Hobbas would be hard to make work because everybody wants to be one, even the ones that want it for all the wrong reasons but pretend they just want to help. Guardians will most likely be available for everyone after reaching certain criteria such as "100% True Habbo", and their powers will likely be very limited unlike the old Hobbas. Also, I don't see this as a way for Habbo to have less real moderators ... they are doing it because a lot of people has requested for the return of Hobbas through The Great Unmute feedback thingy and they promised to take our ideas into consideration following this sex scandal which damaged their reputation.

I see your argument etc, I just hope they have a proper application process so people like you can put "I work for an official fantiste etc etc etc"

P.S. 700th post

Why would they? Its so easy to become a an offical fansite and even easier to become a moderator on it. That idea is completely stupid no offence but its clear you just want to have these special powers lol a prime reason why this shouldn't happen. Just because you're a moderator on a habbo fansite doesn't mean you're capable of being something similar on Habbo with a different set of rules.

I haven't once suggested that I wanted to become a "guardian", I don't play habbo...

A forum is a very different environment to habbo itself. And besides, a lot of the mods here don't actually play habbo anymore. If you're suggesting that mods on habbox should become 'guardians' then that means you support mods from other sites being given the role too... hmm... some sites don't have quite so strict and rigorous selection processes as habbox do.

perhaps i misread but ya

I hope they do proper interviews for this otherwise it's going to just be another massive failure to add to the pile.

Never thought about the feedback before, it's good that Habbo are listening to its users and taking new ideas into account.


Like others have said, I'll imagine it would be based on age - they'll most probably look at the previous eXpert and Hobba system and draw comparisons and compromises through that. Older individuals will bring more maturity to them, meaning there'll be less attention seekers/glory hunters/power mad individuals. Maybe 18? A small percentage of Habbo's population would be able to apply - 21 may be a bit too old, because I'd imagine there couldn't be more than a very small percentage of individuals who would be eligible.
