Question

[Immenseman]

On the official fansite page I'm pretty sure that habbox.com and clubhabbo.net have swapped places which would mean that Habbox has gone from number 1 to number 2. There hasn't been a vote like last time, were you given any reason? Alternatively, is it just my imagination that Habbox had number 1 spot?

Oh yeah! It has moved! Maybe they're doing it in alphabetical order?

[Immenseman]

Why would they move it?! Habbox was voted number 1, not number 2 like the slot it's in. They've also added a new fansite without a vote, so much for us getting our say on fansites. Credit to "Dwight" for pointing this out btw. :)

Meh, Habbox is more popular and at the end of the day, Official Status means nothing and doesn't do a great lot really, other than to advertise which Habbox certainly doesn't need as it gets advertised as the main radio and main source for trade values.

[Immenseman]

What is with you and that flawed argument?!?! Being an official fansite means quite a lot really, there are huge benefits and no negative points really because official and unofficial fansites have to stick to the same rules anyway.

Say wah?

Official fansites are far more trusted by people. If you have a site thats official and another thats unofficial. The majority of people would go to the Official one because they have the stamp of quality giving by that hotel.

It also supplies you with advertisement and can bring in many members who would not otherwise of known about your fansite. :)

You are looking at it from the point of view of Habbox, which certainly doesnt need advertising and wouldnt be affect greatly by losing official status. But looking at it from the point of view of other smaller sites, it is a great boost ;)

The recent article suggesting fansites to Habbo had a field where any fansite could be submitted. Perhaps some people didnt read it properly and overwhelmingly put Clubhabbo down in that box? :P

Or perhaps is it simply a mistake done when they updated the page today.

Back to normal now :).

whats the new fansite, sorry i dont really pay any attention to any of them part from Hx.

It was an error, ClubHabbo & Habbox were only a few votes off each other (apprently) so there was a mix up when placing them on the group page, says lost_witness. After all, number two isn't bad for ClubHabbo - wd Habbox again!

Considering Habbox managed to remain in place very sucessfully for years without offical status I don't see why a small move in the table should cause any worry. Furthermore what SkaterChu has just stated gives little need for worry, since nothing has even happened other than a mistake.

@ Clubhabbo, why you not go no Halloween yet!
@ Habbox, nice to be number one.

Hence why it was merely a question rather than a worry.

Question answered, thread closed. :)
