View Full Version : When and how did you find habbo?
My friend told me about Habbo in early 2003 but I couldn't get onto it for some strange reason. The sulake bar never used to load. But then in June 2003 I got on :) And registerd.
So I have now been on habbo for just over a year :D

Well in the fall of 2002 in computer class my friend told me about since we had time in it since we got finished early and have been addicted ever since...and still have the same name haha.. almost three years...dang i never knew ive been on for that long hahaha
lol these 2 lads in my class were talkin about it so i decided to have a look
at first i didnt know wat to do and i though that the public rooms were the only rooms u could go in
lol exact same to me, When I first started Habbo I only went in the Public Rooms beacuse I had no idea that the Guest rooms exsisted. About a few weeks later I discoverd the Guest rooms. lol

I found out about habbo from my friend and he invited me to join, so i did, and this was back in October 2003. When i joined, i didnt know that much and didnt take a very high interest, Just active on there, had a job (now the owner has moved on) but i have a new job now at a help center.
Anyway, 8 months on... I love habbo loads and know much more, all the habbo staff and all the hobbas. Habbo is much more interesting now with loads of friends and me being in habbo club.
Im glad i was invited to habbo.

I saw an add in the magazine - I thought it looked really child-ish and boring and odd and weird - so I thought I'd try it. :D
I remember walking a few public rooms - noone would speak to me :eusa_booh
So I left - then my friend - the lovely Sierk, told me about it and so I rejoined - met some great people and I'm still there now :)

My first name dtpb13, I came right after the Ione presents, (luckily my mate gave me her anyway lol), then it was stupid, I came on like once a week, but later when I found it about it being popular I came back and have been on since.
I came on when my mate told me it was fun

this is a screenie of the original habbo when it was BETA testing. I've been there since the beginning, basically. My new habbo hasn't been around too long, a few months maybe.

I found out from my bro who found out from a friend who found out from a friend who found out from a friend.....im like how did he kno about habbo? n i started about one month after Ione's birthday when she gave out the presents. I had no idea wat habbo was and wat it was used for until 1-2 yrs ago ^_^ it was funny cos i went on there for about 2 weeks and got bored and i only had a duck wich i won from a race room. I left after my first 2 weeks, went bak on about a week later then left about 3-5 months later and came bak on last july lol

My m8 told me about it in january 2004
I found out about it from my best friend about 2 months after it was realised. I went on quite a bit, then me and my friend started to make our own one, called Unknown Space Station, I guess we did do pretty well for 12 year olds, but it never opened. Now we are 14, and we both go on Habbo a bit still, he works for the same chat service as me, I work as a designer and he's Head Programmer. :P

A friend from cokemusic had me come there when cokemusic goes offline. When I got on habbo, i was like "WHAT!? YOU NEED TO PAY REAL MONEY FOR FURNIS!?" so i didn't come on Habbo for around 2 years. I got back on Habbo again cause Cokemusic lost variety interest and user friendly options. So technically i started in December
