when your citizenship is enabled you'll be greeted by the whole hotel.

Habbo Helpers and Guardians is a user-led Habbo safety program. The campaign was first tested on Habbo.es and Habbo.fi in April 2012, and by June 6, 2012 the program was launched on all hotels. The program is open to all users, regardless of ban history. The campaign is similar to the older Habbo Guides program. In order to become a Habbo Helper or Guardian Habbos have to complete a 'Talent Track' to first become a Habbo Citizen. On the way to becoming a citizen Habbos will learn the basics of Habbo like giving respects, making friends and being online for a given time. Along this track Achievements will be handed out for doing so. After each 'path' a free Rubber duck will be given out and in the final task a blue Base Wall Decoration will be handed out. After a habbo completed this track they can go further on the talent track in order to become a novice guardian (Guardian in the past, but this function has been removed). Other achievements such as being a helper, being on-duty and giving recommendations will be given to the player along the track.

Habbos have to start the talent track in order to get a trading pass. in the past a habbo was free to trade whoever they wanted regardless being a new habbo or a long time player. After the introducing of the talent track habbos had to get a trading pass in order to trade other Habbos.

Becoming A Helper

The Helper and Citizen tracks are found by clicking on your Habbo's head ("Me") in the bottom left corner row of icons and click on the Talents button. Once Habbos have passed the Citizen Track and become a Habbo Citizen they can continue to gain progress as a Helper.

The Talent Track has different sections and milestones to complete. Once a Habbo gets to the Frank's Little Helper section they unlock the Helper Tool and the ability to give tours and answer help questions. At Novice Guardian Habbos would receive the ability to vote in Bully reports, however this feature was later removed.

Role

A Habbo Helper Dialogue Window.

The role of Helpers is to assist other users and give tours of the hotel. With every request, a special dialogue window opens between the user and the Helper assigned to them. Users are able to request tours within the Client using the 'Help' button, and a Helper will respond to give a guided tour. While on tour, Helpers can invite the user to follow them to a room through the chat window. Helpers also respond to non-emergency questions, such as information about Games, Furni, or features of the hotel. Once they have ended the session, users are also able to rate their Helper by recommending them. Habbo Helpers also answer simple questions that Moderators have no need to take care of, taking less stress from them.

Habbo Helpers function mainly as tour guides and greeters, rather than as volunteer moderators. Unlike Hobbas, Helpers do not have any moderation powers.

Helper Tools

After you completed the 'With a Little Help From My Friends' path you will get certain Helper Tools. A new lighthouse icon next to Talents will be shown. Clicking on this icon will open your helper tools. Here you can go On-Duty, and check what kind of tasks you want to do. At first you have the option between Tour Requests and Help Requests, when reaching the Novice Guardian track you will unlock the third and last option to vote in Bully Reports. however this function has been removed. A list of how many Guides, Helpers and Guardians are on-duty can be seen and your Talent Track is accessible by clicking on the See my skill status link.

Being on-duty means you have to be active in the hotel and avoid getting afk or into idle, otherwise you will be put off-duty you are no longer be able to get requests. This will happen after a certain amount of time being afk or in idle. When another player sends a Help Request a window will be shown with the question and a Habbo Helper can accept or decline the request. When accepting the request a chat window with the person will open and a helper can chat with the other Habbo about his question or invite the person to the room the helper is in. You have 12 seconds to accept or decline the request, otherwise it will be given to another helper. The same rules apply for Tour requests however when accepting a tour request the Helper will be teleported to the room where the Habbo is.

In the past it was possible to vote in bully reports. When a habbo reported another player a chat dialogue with other guardians would open with anonymous chat log and guardians could vote if the reported player was acting 'OK' 'BAD' or 'AWFUL' by clicking on the buttons. There was a certain amount of time to verdict the bully. If the guardians couldn't get to decide the same report rotated until they eventually reached an agreement. If the outcome was 'OK' no further action would be taken, however when the outcome was 'AWFUL' the report would be handed over to the Habbo Staff. Since this was a user based moderation system, people often misused the position if they knew who the person was sending the report.

Guardians

An update to the Helper tool was added in late 2012 where the track was extended to include Guardians.

Once a Habbo had proved themselves as a helper and reached the Novice Guardian milestone they unlocked the Bully tool. If a Habbo reported another user for bullying, 5 online Guardians would be given a snippet of the chat log and would vote on the severity of the reported bullying. If the Guardians were in agreement the user would be muted for 15 minutes and banned from the room. If they agreed that it was a severe case or could not come to a conclusion the report would be sent to the moderation team.

On April 24, 2019, Habbo Staff announced that the Guardian Bully tool has been disabled due to some users misusing the feature.
