    Default What a joke.

    Firstly I want to say a huge congrats to @Red; for coming second aka first.

    This room comp thing is such a joke, that maze room won it again, while with the teen party, some spooky maze type game and some boring role playing room... It's like what the hell.

    Paul and whoever else won't fix this. I think people who plan to enter these if you just want the badge then just get the three required furni.

    Thanks Jamie!!! I agree it is an absolute joke! I knew the results were going to be full of the popular rooms. So many of them had entered and I knew there was if any about two places for legit rooms to win. I had to campaign so hard for votes. Kyle ran a giveaway for me today, I asked random people doing giveaways to link to my room, which they were kind enough to do, I pestered the life out of everyone on my friend list, and on here. My only saving grace was that they released the quests a day early and I was able to keep my room at full capacity for about eight hours. (stayed up all night omg) Never entering one of those comps again. It was more hard work than it was worth lmao. Thanks to everyone who voted, or spent hours trying to get me votes. LY

    Yayyyyyyyyy well done. He needs to sort it out but he has too much of a big ego to go back on his word or admit he is wrong

    If Paul LaFontaine wasn't so busy parading around on twitter with silly avatars his fangirls send him perhaps he would actually have time take notice of what is wrong and at least make an attempt to fix it before discarding the idea completely. The issue was brought up on twitter a few days ago and habbos who try to draw attention to some of the issues surrounding the comp (namely the fake giveaways) were met with replies like this:



    I would say that this was disgraceful behaviour from a CEO of a company but I wouldn't want a snide retort from Big Paul like this:


    The conversation ended abruptly when Paul threw his dolls out of the pram with threats to completely remove the room competition as it doesn't appear to cater to a wide enough audience.

    All that is needed is a smidgen of staff interaction. What trouble is it really to ask somebody to patrol rooms to see if 1. they have the correct furni 2. they fit the description and aren't just a party or boost room with some new furni in and, 3. THEY HAVENT WON BEFORE WITH THE EXACT SAME ROOM.

    I thought Paul said he was going to end this? g.c.magic's death run one again.. was barely even savanna themed. Same with Financier who entered the White House. I agree, this is a joke.

    Obviously I'm not a huge presence on the hotel these days, but this has been a problem ever since public voting for competitions was implemented - which must be what, 8 years ago now AT LEAST? You'd think in all that time they'd think of some way to get around these problems, especially since public votes came about as a supposed "solution" to the problem of staff favouritism in the reallllllly old comps. How difficult is it to see that a mix of both is necessary, or at least some appropriate moderation of entries?

    Completely agree with you. Three quarters of his most recent tweets have only been responses about his "bacon hair" and other random idiocy. He hasn't been responding to questions, issues, serious things within Habbo.

    Here are a few more where Paul apparently "hates" room competitions. Don't know why it's so difficult for them to quickly review entries... there can't be that many. All they have to do is scan them and make sure they actually have Savanna furniture in them and aren't just boosting rooms or the White House (cough Financier cough).




    Paul seems pretty anti-room comps...
