    Pretty sure they get told in the handbook that if they're asked they have to paste to pre-determined responses provided by the management?

    "Reputation is a form of point's system used on HabboxForum. It's usually gained by users thanking other users for help."

    "Tokens are the current currency for HabboxForum users. You collect them by posting as well as winning events and competitions. They can be used to purchase Forum VIP and also Habbo Credits."

    I just wrote them out, but I'm pretty sure the Handbook gives similar examples how what staff are supposed to answer with when they're asked.

    Since Casinos kicked the bucket, TONNES of new events and games have been arising! I've seen loads and loads of people making things like Board Games, Pet Racing (Classic) and even turning the old gambling game "Multi" into a game where you can win furniture by getting over a certain amount.

    ideas are lacking in the department, but maybe if they got out there and scouted some of the newer trends and other fansite events, the problem would soon go away.

    This should be considered a serious issue seeing as it is events that draw people into a community. It is one of the main forms of exposure any fansite can have on Habbo.

    If the manager is to blame - sack them. The manager should be incredibly active and approachable. One main problem with Habbox on Habbo, it would seem, is that they can't be bothered to socialise with non-members. The help desk is often caught out for doing this and if the events team is doing it no wonder Habbox isn't as popular as other fansites.

    100% agree with the bolded parts here. Although Tom is doing a good job IMO, he could be pushed further, I haven't seen any pushing of open applications though, or any advertisement in client or in signatures etc...

    As with the socialise thing... I remember this was a big problem in the past, and when Lewis was manager I'm pretty sure he scrapped the whole "HabboxVIP" area. Making it so ANY user could enter the social area, as long as they didn't interfere with the host area or any game related furniture such as dice etc... I've actually seen some people avoiding this rule recently, having it so you need a code to enter a social area, or even just placing a gate down. So has the rule gone completely? If it has then that's stupid. Yes fair enough, it doesn't help a lot as staff can staff talk to their friends and ignore the others, but it does make non staff feel a little more involved if they can sit and commute with Habbox people and stuff.

    Believe its a rule since Lewis was manager (possibly before him) that there should be a sticky explaining what rep and tokens are.

    Ive seen it in a lot of events rooms yay

    E.g in my room I have the rules for the event, what is rep sticky, what are tokens sticky, and then useful websites and prizes that you can win.

    It may well be a rule but it's not followed and no-one's enforcing the rules anyway (manager or staff AGM), and telling someone to read a sticky isn't going to make them want to carry on interacting with that community since it's extremely stand-offish and comes across as being something from an army/mafia recruitment room than something that's actually fun

    Well I introduced compulsory stickies for them that staff had to point them to and explain themselves if possible. Not sure what's happened to that. If they failed to prepare stickies such as that or the how to play one, they'd get a caution after so many times.

    I never scrapped it, Hayden scrapped it and I kept it that way with a few changes . Not sure what's really happened to it since then

    I assume habboxvip got brought back rhys as I have seen it reintroduced a while ago. I thought Lewis readded it but I guess it wasn't him based on^

    but no lets keep staff chattin to their buddiess cause less community interaction is exact what we need 10/10

    Think you're allowed habboxvip if you want now or leave it so you can freely walk into like a watch area
