A former Habbo and later a Hobba on Habbo UK, Marion aka Jet started working for Sulake in Habbo NL as a Community Manager back in 2006, before moving on to Site Production and becoming a Hotel Manager last year.
That s such a long time ago! I was a student at the time, I remember. I think the www.habbo.co.uk had just launched and the players seemed to be a little bit older. But maybe I wasn t really paying attention. budget rental cars canada Anyway, my boyfriend who was a graphic designer pointed Habbo Hotel out to me. He told me about this massive online hotel, where you can actually walk around, get cool clothes and build rooms. Actually, he called it a giant doll house, budget rental cars canada if I remember correctly. I was in heaven! I love all that stuff! So, I logged in right away and I was hooked. I remember that having bright colored hair was still a bug/trick , you only had normal hair in the shop. So you had to fool the system to get pink hair. I remember being very proud to know the trick that would dye your hair (only for insiders at the time). I still have bright hair till this day.
I was sooo excited! I remember my first lessons and even remember the Habbo name of my trainer Don_Beech. I used to spend hours in the hotel, trying to help out. I could do it till the middle of the night sometimes. And, it was great practice for my English. I ve met so many cool people, too!
Well, long story short. I finished my studies and kinda moved away from Habbo for a while. Then a friend told me about a Habbo Hotel Netherlands being built,  and that they were looking for testers . I jumped on this opportunity right away, but didn t want to be a tester. No, I wanted to work for the Dutch office so I sent Sulake my resume. After a lot of meetings and interviews, I got the job. And the rest is history. That was 8 years ago
Well, Habbo is a Hotel that changes. The features are getting better and better. Even though I ve noticed that Habbo s don t like change all the time. Don t we all fear change? But, I do think that changes are always good in the end. New features bring new life into a community. I remember the first pets! Wow! That was so exciting. But over the years, Habbos haven't really changed that much. They all seem to have the same sense of humor :)
The excitement that new stuff brings. Habbo really is like a country and news travels so fast. I enjoy watching Habbos pick up our products- spin it around a couple of times- and create these amazing games and events in their rooms. Really, they amaze me every day. I couldn t do it.
Definitely dealing with players who got their stuff stolen because someone managed to steal their password. It s sometimes heartbreaking to hear these stories. Even though most players do admit that they might have given away their password, or opened this weird attachment, it still is such a sad situation. budget rental cars canada We try and give as much guidance to avoid this from happening again, and most of these Habbos get back on their feet.. but still. It makes me angry to know some teens out there get enjoyment out of stripping someone's account of Furni. And why it s so not cool i.m.o. You could use those skills for so many better budget rental cars canada things in life.
I am now working on some exciting new stuff in Habbo.NL , but I can t talk about it publicly yet. I m Twittering as much as I can, that s pretty fun. And we are thinking about how to make Habbo in general even more fun and how to include FB and Hyves and Twitter in all this.
I remember when that was open for applications. It was a big deal with all kinds of players interested. I don t think it s annoying that they don t tell us what s coming.. budget rental cars canada because budget rental cars canada that is easy enough to figure out. She tweets in another language so that I don t understand what s she s saying. Darn all these staffers showing off their fluency all over the place. ;)
