Recently, Habbo announced that the Bobba filter will become the ***** filter! A lot of people have expressed their views showing that they would much prefer that the change does not go ahead. What do you think?

I like the star because you can work out what people Said plus bobba sounds like a word made up by a 5 yr old.

Well normally I moan about people talking about history but bobba is history and should stay! Sometimes it's better because people don't know exactly what you're saying due to the character and it just generally fits in rather than some astrixes. Bobba for me.

Bobba is legendary and part of Habbo History.

Bobba for sure :( It will be too much like habboxforum otherwise LOL

Plus as others have said, it's a part of Habbo's History and something which a lot of people instantly recognise with Habbo. BOBBA ftw! :(

I think it should be left as Bobba! They aim the game at younger members and I think they'd rather see "Bobba" than "****"

But the whole point of the change is because it's confusing - and I myself found it confusing at first. I was like "what's Bobba?" and worked out quite quickly but still..at least people will realise straight away with the *****.

Pretty sure it tells you what it is in your settings when you create/edit your account. Also it would be in the FAQs

No I disagree, I think more people only realise **** from other online games and forums, other than that I don't think people will realise it anymore than bobba.

IT'S HISTORY AND CAN NOT BE REMOVED. IT SHOULD BE OPTIONAL.

It should just be optional, I prefer bobba over anything.

Without it being Bobba how could we ever wear this (http://www.cafepress.co.uk/+i_will_bobba_for_furni_white,49871711) in public and not feel stupid?

Don't really mind. Asterisks are probably a little better though, IMO.

Well I voted bobba only due to the fact of its been there all my habbo career.

The **** option is better due to the fact people are like "bobba" "Bobba my bobba text keeps saying bobba bobba" and then get confused with it. Stars are more known for swearing. x

Bobba as it has played a HUGE part in habbos history. They even made money by selling BOBBA merchandise!

When they unmerge.

I personally have to blame the young American users for this, being a stereotyping British person :P

Bobba is classic it still reminds of the word hobba and if bobbas removed all will be forgotten about habbos good days.

Bobba ftw. Bobba is Habbo, Habbo is Bobba. (lawl)

They even called their website 'BobbaBar' after Bobba..

Exactly - seems like a pointless change to be honest - they won't even make money by changing it!

Bobba - the staff are bobbas.

Wonderful
03-12-2010, 02:43 PM
so pointless. tbh I'd rather see bobba - which could mean anything as opposed to something that I know is a filtered swear word as a new player.

Bobba is what identifys habbo from everything else, remove bobba and habbo turns into just another kids gamechat (sorry teenager gamechat :s)

Bobba should be kept, to be honest it is iconic to habbo. :(

This could be a protest in the Hallways issue.

Bobba is the last bit from Old habbo, but TBH i don't actually care. I don't even have it on so I never see the word bobba unless someone actually types it.

Care to elaborate in what way? Do you play habbo?

Matthew
03-12-2010, 06:27 PM
i dont really care, i dont use the filter after all.

But bobba is such an awesome word, when my friends used to play habbo some of them used to accidentally say 'Oh Bobba!' instead of 'Oh ****' or w/e xD

Sharon

does this have something to do with bobba bar

well i'm not bothered either way BUT obviously it's been here a long time so i don't see the point in removing it...

I prefer it as bobba, it's fun and asterisks seem a bit boring compared to the good old bobz.

I don't like it as I think it'll make things look tacky.

Always bobba its like something from the begining of habbo, they took everything else and now this noobs -_-

I think 'bobba' it's traditionally habbo. Even though the *'s are more understandable to new ones.

Hey, I think the bobba should stay its be on habbo for years as I am told by my friends. So it's Bobba for me.

Mikey

I think it should be ****. It's more recognisable for younger users who have just joined and it doesn't really effect me because i've turned it off.

I prefer **** because, like Mikey said, it's recognisable for younger users, who may not know what Bobba is.

well, thinking about it more, I don't know actually. If it shows **** for everything, even longer swear words, hen I won't be happy because we may not know what the word actually is, if it's longer.

Bobba. It creates a 'habbo' feel and it's the only old habbo like thing left in habbo nowadays.

And agreed with Kromium lol ;)

from half the replies you'd expect that the main attraction of Habbo is the word bobba.

come on though, will this make a difference? the main attraction of Habbo is the community which sadly seems to have become rather unbearable over the past couple of years, mostly cause we've all matured, the carefree days of running around the hotel playing games has ended with half the time now replaced by hanging out in casinos 24/7 or sticking heads up arses in an attempt to suck the efame from each other, sadly half the people I have known on here have become LMFAOOOOOOing efame hungry habbos.

atleast you can say bobba with a shred of irony now.
I have issues.

A lot of you are saying that the ***** would be more easily understood by new, young members.
But to me, ***** would make me feel more offended. If someone said:
- **** you, you're a ******
- bobba you, your're a bobba
Which would look more offensive? Maybe it's just me though :P.

Meh, let Habbo slowly destroy their history - the history which made Habbo good. Present Habbo sucks eggs. Bobba is childish, but unique.
