I was reading this weeks album review and thought that it was really good,
http://www.habbo.co.uk/community/habbo_debate/music_club.html

I thought it was so good that it might be copied so I went on NME and found that they'd reviewed it a while ago. Rabbitfoo (the 'writer' of the album review just copied and pasted bits from NME's review to make his.)

I wonder if habbo staff will remove it.

I don't think you get a prize for submitting them now anyways so i doubt they will remove it, I'm sure a poem was copied once but that didn't get removed either.

Since they don't get a prize, I won't bother reporting it :P

if anyone remembers the valentines competitions. There was one when you described your friends room that need a make-over. It was 20 words max, and one which used over 90 words won. Contacted them, nothing ever happened!

+rep :)

If nothing else, it should be alerted so the Staff know about it.

It's a bit sad to cheat in a competition where you don't even win a prize.. I dont see the point? maybe they thought they would win a prize, obviously if that's the case they were wrong... anyway, it's wrong and just plain sad and miserable.

If you're talking about the billboard competition, the prize is a badge and a link to your habbo home, not just a link to your habbo home.
