Age to stop playing Habbo?

[Caution]

Is there an actual age where Habbo staff can ban people for playing? If they knew there was a 40 yr old playing could they ban them as it could pose a risk? I wouldn't be bothered about a 25 yr old playing but I would if there was a 40 yr old or anything so can they do that?

This isn't aimed at anyone in particular before people say anything..

[:Technical]

Auntyfrog and her husband where in their 50s. They didn't pose as a threat.

shes in a wheel chair innit LOL

[Zak]

Nope. I heard that 'Bill' was 40 odd, I have known people to be on there 20s to play aswell. A bit like me.

Prob, she does have one leg ;l
They can't ban people for it, there's an 'Adult' (saddos) group on habbo, I've seen an apparently 47 year old act like a 12 year old with the language she uses, spose she could be lying you do get people like that here :eusa_whis
I don't know if they can/do ban old people for it but they should.

[Immenseman]

i think people do lie about it a lot, yeah. ATTENTION.

[Chaos]

Doubt it.

There are loads of 30+ players

And younger people are more of a risk look at them all trying to hack and scam.

And they are more immature aswell so i doubt youll get banned for being old.

Yeah, I was thinking that but isn't it a bit weird? Older people wanting to be on a place aimed at children.

Not at all, unless you play habbo to meet 12 year olds :S. I'm talking about 40+. Most people grow out of habbo in their teens thinking it's lame so dunno why 40 year olds find it 'fun.'

[FiiR3]

Just because someone is over 21 (around the age you see people getting abuse for being too old) it doesn't mean they are out to abuse kids, i'll remind you that alot of older people were on Habbo when they were teenagers and probably before you lot, they have a right to be there without a bunch of kids crying at them over their age.

I Have alot of older friends (Bunch of 20-26 year olds, 38, 39, 42, 55/56,) and they are pretty much the only people that give a decent conversation, they are only on to talk to their friends who are usually old aswell. Should we ban the ex-hobbas and staff and just make the staff 16? They are all old, just because they are staff doesn't mean they are angels.

You'll find that most of the older Habbos don't use Habbo for much more than a chat room, the reason teens find it lame is because they've been trading and gambling 24/7 and actually using Habbo as a 'game'. Habbo wasn't always solely aimed at children, especially when it first came out. I Remember habbo when i first joined had tons of adults on it, alot are probably still there and if it wasn't for them Habbo probably wouldn't have started getting popular.

Most of my age are the ones i think "teenage girls" should beware of lol, 16-18 because we are all super-perverted, horny and tons of people my age meet outside of habbo, just because they are young it doesn't mean they can't be paedophiles, an age is just an age, a paedophile thinks like a paedophile if he's 15, 20, 30, 60, whatever.. he's still the same person with the same thoughts.

I'm not saying there are no older Habbos that are perverts/paedophiles, i'm saying that it's not the case every single time, these people don't need to be banned, they have as much right to use Habbo as anyone else.

[lemonparty]

just try and get out as quick as you can!!!

I suggest a perm ban, worked for me

[Zak]

same with runescape really I know tons of old people who play that including my girlfriend's mum and uncle doesn't make it a bad thing

[brandon]

I think it's kinda strange to still be playing it when you're over 18 but I don't think there should be an age limit.

[Jordan:A]

I think they would ban them if they were being a pervert

Yeah, if someone about 25+ was playing it I would question why they were on there, really.

[Fubt]

I know a 40 yr old who whose daughter plays and one day she went on to see what it was/suitable and she got obsessed lol

If they were a pervert then surely they would be reported..
I dont think there should be an age limit + people could clearly put a fake d.0.b in so it would be hard to know whos over a certain age..

[Barmi]

Age means very little on Habbo, IMO. I've known some older people on Habbo and they are some of the better people I've bumped into. I much prefer to talk to those with a genuine, mature attitude regardless of age – I'm not interested in kids who think they are leetsauce and think it's cool to scam others.

What I'm saying isn't particularly relevant now because I rarely visit Habbo, but the principle still stands. Habbo, thanks to its safety standards, would make it very difficult for a paedophile to groom children. Like most internet sites, I expect the older users have no intention to talk to the younger, immature ones.

No, there should not be an age limit. On a practical note, it's unenforceable.

[Marucho]

Personally i think about 17. But i'll probably get flamed. So lets say 19.

[fancyman123]

Iv heard some of my habbo friends say that you get an AUTO ban when your 18 but iv know old people in there 20's not banned so im not sure!

[e5]

If they are seen to be causing problems, the user can report them and get them banned. If they're not, don't worry...

[VelvetClover]

I still play Habbo but use it primarily as a chatsite because it's a good one and I've made a few friends on it.
I don't enter competitions or trade furni really, unless I want credits for HC.

[Clowgon]

Is weird though, why would anyone, especially in their 40's would want to spend their time on Habbo???

[Immenseman]

because like anyone who plays habbo they have nothing better to do. this isn't a hit at anyone, i love habbo hotel (tm)

[Clowgon]

Lol. Addicted.

[Immenseman]

woo habbo is my life.

[Clowgon]

Habbo till i die!

Yeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaa.
