my rant on habbox vip

[ssricky]

dont say this is wrong section this is a comment.

Recently i have seen brand new members getting 7 rep bars in one day and getting offf the chart rep powers. i have also learned that now any forum vip can buy rep. i find this insulting to senior members who spend all their months on habbox forums earning their rep. Rep power used to mean respect and that you have done something to benefit others. now it just means ur using ur money to look all fancy. People with high rep power used to mean they were trustworthy and you could count on them now it means they are new and just buying rep to make them look like they are popular :rolleyes: my opinion on this buying rep thing is a disgrace to senior members and is like slapping us in the face. what is your opinion on this?

edit: i think i posted this in wrong section cuz i dont think neone can post inhere besides me and mods can a mod please move it to another correct section where others can post?

I think they should change the amount of reputation you get for the time you have been here.. 1 Reputation every Year is hardly enough.. It should be like 1 every 3 months. :) I would have 9 rep ! :D

i think they should only give rep out to vip members who have been here u gain 1 rep bar ever 2-3 months as a vip member due to the fact ur supporting the forum and gaining no personal advantage over other members such as what buying rep does by buying rep noobs will abuse it :\

This is the third thread on this matter.

JackHB has clearly stated that Buying Rep was a request from a lot of VIP members..

[Baving]

Also you have got to take into account that Habbox and the websites that are provided cost alot to keep running with server costs etc. So by having people able to buy rep it helps fund the costs, as if there were not things like that Habbox would not be able to survive.

but there is always a downside to things like this soon habbox will be over run with high rep powered noobs abusing their rep :rolleyes: and dont bother saying put it in that thread report unacceptible rep received u know how many im still waiting to have removed :rolleyes:

[Infrontation]

So because I dont want to pay real money to get more reputation on the forum, I ain't considered as important?

Yeah not really being mean but - Kaye.. :p

[TealArms]

And klock, i was going to also complain about how they removed the habbox VIP page and were not going to lower the cost of vips but they are adding summit diffrent

[kasi]

i hate how people can buy rep. its wrong. habbox wants money, that's it. and now its not how trustworthy you are, its how much money you have to spend on stupid things like rep.

[JackHb]

If you actually look at alot of the people who have high rep points then the comments they are getting is like:

"rep me back pls"
"haha you cool"

And silly things, - I would say 90% of reps are used for the wrong reasons.

You could buy vip and get the rep with it, it is a lot cheeper and better then just paying £12 "/

Congrats on absolutely contradicting yourself. Saying that is practically like buying rep except you get a few features. People who buy rep are also supporting the forums - just because you are a VIP doesn't give you the right to 'only support the forum'. So please stop whining if you are going to be a hypocrite.

[Mit]

If someone is willing to pay that much money for rep power than thats their problem. Rep is about how you earned it for some, so you can say to yourself, ive earnt all that 100 rep points whereas someone buying rep can't.

its not whining and its not called being a hypocrite its called expresing my opinion on teh subject u wudnt know the differnece cuz ur probably 6 years old and no im not contradicting myself buying vip and buying rep are 2 seperate things u nub if u read the whole thread u would know that -.- and im hardly contradictingmyself talking about 2 seperate things so go back to grade school learn sum english and sum buisness then come back to post in my thread :$

[Seacat]

People were able to just buy reputation before anyway by buying VIP. Alot of ppl bought lots of months / years of VIP for the rep, and requested that they could just buy rep for cheaper than VIP, therefore we opened up the feature to buy rep points to VIPs only.

i know but im just expressing my opinion of how i find this offensive to members that earned their rep

You're comparing me to a six year old, since when did age come into this. I have read the whole thread and you said you should be able to get free rep when you buy VIP but not be able to buy rep straight off, there is hardly a difference except the extra features. And please, before you comment on me learning english check your spelling? Just for you i've highlighted errors.

I think the funniest thing is when you said:


to grade school learn sum english

I nearly ROFL then. When i was six i could spell the word 'some'. You must be even younger than that. I think you're profile lies about your age TBH. You sound like you're a bit PMT - maybe your profile also lies about your gender.

ur talking about my spelling lets correct some of your mistakes shall we "I nearly ROFL then"< major grammer error that makes absolutely no sense . You sound like you're a bit PMT < sound? how can u hear me are u stalkin me :( . maybe your profile also lies about your gender.[/ < woah big man questioning my gender im not gunna even respond to this cuz if i told u how many girlfriends i have had u would cry since u havent even hit puberty yet probably :rolleyes:

[kasi]

ricky burned marcus
oh whatt

[sierk]

I don't see what you mean. It has always been like this. Rep wasn't earned, it was given to people who bought vip. And some bought 1 or 2 years of vip and they received a lot of rep at once.
I do agree that it rep has lost his meaning a bit, since members can buy it, but I think it was already like this when we first introduced vip.

but i see it as when u buy vip your paying the forum for a special previliage such as coloured name and all the other vip bonus buy just by buying rep it is like it means nothing i understand getting rep from vip because you are paying money for extra privlages and with them u get free rep per month but by buying vip directly its just like people buy 1 month vip then like 20 rep bars then dont buy vip or nething nemore i find it pointless to buy rep

You do the same when you buy rep. Just except the priveledges, so if they are willing to pay for green bars below there name, let them do it. Instead of whining because somebody has a higher rep than you because they paid for it.

Learn to spell grammar before you correct mine? I nearly 'rolled on the floor laughing'. From your posts you sound (as in look like and with the whininy 'n all) you're a bit PMT. And you think the amount of girlfreinds you have had has anything to do with this? And no i wouldn't cry, i'd rather have no girlfreinds than be 18 and sound like i'm still 12.

[TealArms]

^^ says the dude who thinks Kaye has to high a post count

[Seacat5]

You have to be VIP to buy rep anyway, so it is an extra feature. Rep has lost its meaning and ppl were able to buy it before by just buying loads of VIP subscriptions (like I said above) - been able to just buy rep without buying years of VIP is just a cheaper way for ppl to get the rep tht they would buy VIP for anyway.
