    While I see where you're coming from and I seem to have picked up your theme throughout the entire thread about hosting 'crap' events - May I ask if you expect an amazing quality, 100% no faulting, original game on every slot? (I'm not being funny/sarcastic, genuine).

    No but I expect games that are fun to play. It's been established many times before in feedback and polls that certain events just aren't what people want to be playing, yet they keep happening and then there's somehow confusion over why some events struggle to get people turning up.

    This whole thing is madness, maybe the user with the lessor liked event should go back to a drawing board and think of a unique concept to pull in users because (as proven) when the tag was removed the room was still suffering from lack of users whilst the other remained congested. And it's only common sense to promote Habbox as much as possible, and if this popular room is constantly pulling in high amounts of users it would be crazy to stop, it's like a Habbox gold mine really.

    Good to see that the events hosted are becoming more like what people wanted to actually play! Let's have a look at what's booked for today

    zebbadi - Fridge Game (essentially don't get a carrot, 0 votes)
    zebbadi - Unscramble (0 votes)
    .Cymru. - Addition (1 vote)
    .Cymru. - Unlucky Chair (0 votes)
    Bolt660 - Fastest Typer (0 votes)
    Civilisation - Habbo Races (not sure if this is pod racing style (0 votes) or Mario Kart style (4 votes))
    JamesSparky - Elimination (no idea what this is, possibly something new )
    DailyBread - Spell Check (nice spin on FT, could be good idk)

    Oh maybe not then. So that's potentially 2 popular games in an entire day.

    Also didn't we used to claim we were better than HFFM because we hosted more games than them? We have 22 event staff and are only averaging 8 games per day so far this month. I know we're not as international as we'd like to be but missing out on two thirds of the day is a bit much really. Not at all suggesting that regular staff should be on every single day but surely there's SOME passion in the team. That's passion btw, not attitude, which is what I encountered earlier when I asked a certain member of staff why he hosted unpopular events - apparently the Habbox community are the ones who are wrong, not him, because 10 people (half of whom are staff) turn up to his games.

    I've also been comparing our events popularity with HFFM and 8 times out of 10 HFFM have a far more superior number of visitors in their rooms. When Habbox's event seem to linger in the high teens and lower twenties 18-23 HFFM seem to always be in the low thirties.

    Yeah management used to get around that by claiming that we have more events so more visitors overall but that hasn't been true for quite a while now... The simple fact is that they host events that people actually want to go to (not just people on the host's list) and don't allow their staff to simply stagnate.

    Our newest lot seem promising: Graham and Myles made The Strangers, Gina did Duck Races for a bit which was fab, and DailyBread seems to be getting inventive too. A lot of the time though people seem content to just host boring games where they sit and talk to their friends rather than work to improve the department, or in some cases coughCASSIEcough actually subvert their fellow EOs by complaining about their events and bullying them on a personal level

    Well from the last 2 pages Ive read (tried reading the first page but got bored...) anywho the issue being thrown around is what type of events are being hosted. I know a lot of events arn't on everyones fav list, and some are. I know not a lot of people like addition while some do. I loved it personally Js and Warren was pro at it! But back to the point. People want Fun, new games and you gotta give them what the want, as your hosting events for them. Not yourself. I know some hosts don't have the means to host some fancier games, but it wouldn't be a problem for them to ask another host to borrow some furni, or to even use their event room to host it.

    again nothing will change with martin in charge since he has the interaction skills of a robot, he cant get the people who will host good events to join because he doesn't do what any good manager should do and make friends and mingle outside of habbox. hes good on the paperwork side of things but when it comes to getting things done he isnt the person for the job

    i said this in staff forum and he ignored it (whist everyone agreed with me)

    if he put as much time and effort as he does into flirting and finding boyfriends on the forum maybe events would have a TINY chance
