    Default Merge layoffs

    This is the big merge article. In coöperation with me (Yucca) and [big]VanS.. VanS. is from Habbo.DE. We have watched all the staffs and mods during the merge. Just kept an eye on who stayed, and who were fired. In this post I will tell you how many staffs must have left because of the merge, how long they have been working for Habbo until Sulake dumped them like they were rubbish. The staffs were fired because of the merge, or during something else. We can’t know everything. But here is our list, of staff we do know who were fired BECAUSE or DURING the merge. How we got it? Just noticed when a staff lost their badges, stopped loggin in & checking their sulake mail if it was valid or not.

    Ofcourse, this is so much more easier for Sulake. They have shut offices, they could reduce on lots of staffs & mods et cetera. Although, perhaps they shouldn’t have done it. Where is the sympathy for your workers, who have made Habbo on the top of social games. I believe Sulake lost their habbo-spirit. They only want to earn more money, and want to spend less money. Ofcourse it’s ideal for Sulake. Over 80 persons are fired because of the merge. Some were given a notice for a month, some a week… But! There is one person, who is fired without a single notice, without a single warning, after 5 years of hard work & extra not-paid hours. The Human Resource Management (Marjaana Murtomaa) has dumped (in my eyes) the specific person. I thought it was so low to do that, even if he was been noticed. I am talking about CrestHawk. CrestHawk started working for Sulake during 2006, for VMK. Together with his wife (Moiraine) they started to host events for Virtual Magic Kingdom. In October 2006 his wife went to Habbo, and in January 2008 CrestHawk followed. He became the Hotel Manager of Habbo North America (CA & US). But then, after countless unpreciated hours of work, they fired him. On the first of April, he was called by the HR Management. They said he must take his stuff, clean his desk and go. Together with Moiraine they cleaned his desk, and went home. Without even a notice, or having a good word for his work he was fired. I could see this wrong, in that case forgive me.

    The perhaps even sad part, is that the most of the MODS worked on CA, US, UK. Sulake had an incredible evil plan about them. Lets fire all the expensive MODS, located in CA, US & UK and lets hire the much more cheaper MODS from Singapore! So they say, so they did. During the end of 2009 and the beginning of 2010, all MODs who were located in CA, US or UK were fired. Even some who were volunteer moderator. The Singaporian MODs earn about 5 american dollars per hour (they don’t have an minimum salary in Singapore). Cool, sulake! Lets hire Moderators who don’t understand Habbo’s, who don’t have experience with it, and who will probably never search friendly contact with them.


    So! Our article, we have counted 82 layoffs because of the merge. What do you think of these actions? We are looking forward to read your opinion & thoughts. Do you want to know who are fired? Check it out here: (Made by Yucca & VanS.)

    Love, Yucca & VanS.

    Probs the wrong section but it makes sense about moderators, uk had nice moderators imo, if you done a joke in the help tool they'd realise it was a joke

    This article is very good. You have hit the nail on the head. Firing somebody without notice is appalling. Habbo don't seem to have managed this merge and downsize very well at all.

    Great article! I had no idea that 82 staff had been made redundant, however I'd love to know the exact amount of money they will be saving because of it.
