Sometime we like to joke around mimic those lame scammers. e.g gimme your password, i give you free coin... just to joke or mock them. :D
However Habbo MOD do not seem to allow even a joke. the worst part is you can be banned permenantly. This is so stupid especially after you spend a lot of $$ on furni.:@
Have anyone here ever a victim of such circumstances?
It's happened to a few of my friends
They can't allow it really because then scammers could just say they were joking. But thinking again who would scam on an account with furni

Indeed! don't MOD have the kind of evil sense of humor?
Worst ppl get permenant for thing they don't mean to.
That is why it becoming plain sick in there.

Er, they're doing their jobs perfect.
You can't tell if someone's joking on the internet, can you?!

Like already said, they can't tell if your joking or not, and even if they said you are, then you can have real scammings just saying then were joking so they get let off and so on.

No you can't really allow that. Imagine it in real life
1) A person stabs his friend
2) Police go to arrest him
3) Person says "I was only joking"
4) Ahh just go with a warning then...
It doesn't work in real life and it wouldn't work on Habbo

Habbos online/Stabbing is real life. Also it would be up to the stabbed victim to press charges wouldn't it? Also moderators need to calm down, Allow the 11year ban, why not give habbos a warning strike?

I suppose it is because:
Joker: ''Hey.Give me your pass and i'll give you gazzillionz of free credits!''
Victim: ''Ok it is *********.''

Wow, sorry but its there jobs.
um my friend came onto my acc. sent out **** sites and I got reported for it and perm banned. I spent alot of ££ on it too. MOds do perm you for it, but then you can appeal via HABBO HELP TOOL and then if the office staff beleive you were joking they wuld unban you. Happened to a few of my friends.

Go on a plane and scream
OMG he has a bomb
then try explaining to the police that you were just joking once the plane had to do a emergency landing.
Or scream Fire in a movie theater.
Then tell everyone it was a joke after it had been evacuated.

I got perm banned once for saying "If I could 'hack' Habbo, I wouldn't. No point." I just made a new account, asked to meet a MOD and basically ranted at them calling them mis-reading idiots. Strangely, they unbanned me.

The major differences between Habbo and real life.
1. Habbo is virtual, real life is reality.
2. Your examples have some risk to life.
So really, what you said doesn't relate to the problem at hand.

Happened to loads of people on the forum. Basically, you are just typing it out. MODs cannot see your expression if you are sarcastic or really meaning it. Hence on the safe side, they ban the user.

Yeah I know my example was extreme but it showed the same principle :p.
Also when a criminal offence is committed in the UK it doesn't matter if the person who was attacked wants to press charges. If the Police/CPS have enough evidence to prosecute without the victim's statement/evidence then they can go ahead and do that. It's just that most of the time the police need a statement from the person who was attacked; but not all of the time. If it's a criminal offence then the CPS can choose to prosecute anyway as it's a crime against the state.

If they are not 100% sure. they can't simply ban anyone.. that is what i feel...
For the bomb case, If Jim Carey shouted on the plane: " Hey!! there is a bomb!" eveyone will laught at him! Even if he means it.
It is about different people bringing across different message. They should look at the history of the habbo. All along he bought stuff ( a lot of it) people know him as what kinda person he/she is.
Fo example: Would u believe if someone told you he saw Bill Gates stealing a candy at Walmart?
Next example: What if Gates announce on tv that he stole cars, commit burglary.. Are the police going to arrest him? it is not meant by word he say but by the action.
if i say: " hey i m a scammer!" i must also show how i scam.
U can visit a police station and claim u are a robber. If you did not commit any robbery, the police usually don't bother a dam about you unless you create a nuisance.
A person status do have impact on a person. that is what a person is judge unless there is hardcore evidence.
That is the message i m trying to bring across.
