I can't remember why I originally registered, probably through Habbox values though.
I was re-introduced in late 2009 by -:Undertaker:- when he was Assistant Rare Value Manager, I worked for him at HHGS a couple of years before.

Through a user called .Gil-Grissom. On habbo. I worked in his Police Force and he asked me to find out how much something was worth, as hx was down for him. Didn't know.what Hx was or how to find out how much stuff was worth. He told me. I didn't sign up to the forum until a year or so later.

I knew habbox was popular cos of rare values being used in every trade room so when i had a techie problem, it was the first place I decided to go. Then I found out that articles staff applications were open so I applied. Didn't get in the first time but I've stayed ever since :)

ahah well BASICALLY I knew NAUTINHEEMOO from school and I was obv aware of Habbox cause of rare values but then one day I got a message on my console from NEEM himself with his little head with its red cowboy hat on telling my to JOIN THE FORUM cause it would earn him referals or something! ever since i've been an addict apart from all those years and months I haven't been on.

I actually have no idea lol but I'm assuming it had something to do with Rare Values.

I used to use Habbox for rare values, because on Habbo UK everyone used to go 'omggggg its worth 5c check habboxxx'

I was in the sun terrace and some listeners were spamming the habboxlive link so I was like, What the hell, and I tuned in and did do for about 2 years now I don't really use any other of the habbox sites other than the forum. The first DJ I listened to was Owen ( DJ Shigster ;) )

I found out about Habbox from a friend, after he'd recommended me to Habbo. It was only because of the Rare Values though :P.

23-04-2011, 02:13 PM
A friend recommended me to HabboxLive and one of the DJ's (can't remember who) persuaded me to sign up (possibly 9y, I listened to a lot of his shows). When I actually used my forum account, one of the DJ's was talking about the forum... think it was LexiiLu (so thanks guys ;))

23-04-2011, 03:59 PM
i think it was because of rare values and trading purposes rly.

Stephen
23-04-2011, 04:26 PM

Got told to go to habbox for rare values by a friend when I started habbo in like early '05, joined the forum in the summer of '05 I think, and stayed because there was a pretty big graphics community back then, learnt quite alot about photoshop because of it.

Found out about it nearly straight away as soon as I joined habbo, I think from a dj party room, but didn't join until like 2008.

My friend was one of those people that trade all the time and make furni shops and I'd often go over his house and he would have HabboxLive open in the background (BAZOOKA BUBBLEGUM) while looking for values so I started using it and hanging with the HabboxLive crew and then signed up to HxHD and HxF.

24-04-2011, 03:33 PM

I think I found about it because of Rare Values, but i really got into the radio and I signed up to the forum when I tried to be a DJ, and i just sticked around for about a year as a listener, then applied again and got in and WOO.

Alkaz
24-04-2011, 04:43 PM
In 2004 when I started out I heard about it via HxHD then I signed up a year later and didn't do anything about it until 2007 when I saw some event.

I'd heard people spamming rooms saying "HABBOX.COM TUNE IN!" and I was signed up to HFFM at the time but when I got banned off hffm, I signed up to the forum but tbh I don't like Habbox Live.

Eoin247
24-04-2011, 04:55 PM
Went to a furni shop and they told me to look up www.habbox.com (http://www.habbox.com) for the values of things.

Samantha
24-04-2011, 05:00 PM
I usually went on for rare values and I heard someone talking so I turned my volume up, I remember it was a competition but I couldn't hear her Habbo name properly so i couldn't enter. I remember the Dj was Melissa/Melsia :)!

Kyle
24-04-2011, 05:44 PM
everybody i knew would use it to price their rares so when i opened a furni shop i started using it and then after somebody told me about the forum i signed up.

I was in a trade city in 07 & some1 said "one sec, I need to check the value on habbox" I said "Whats habbox" they said "its a fansite that does RV's" so i said cool looked at it saw they had like 100+ listners & i was like WOW! i was too scared to apply for HxL because I didn't think I was good enough, so I only used it for RV's

then as I got older I stopped wanting to work for unofficil fansites, went to habbcrazy for a while, then my friend said "Apply for habbox" so I did & hey, I love it :)

Told by my friend to look at the Habbox rare values in school lol. Then I guess from there I discovered there was a forum and registered.

Through the trading system. What makes Habbox popular on Habbo now anyway? I seem to notice that many established members mention the trade system, but you do not really hear of it anymore :/

rare values has sorta been made redundant following the marketplace. i think its mostly big events on the client (like hxss), hxl and hxhd that brings people in nowadays :D

01-07-2011, 03:52 PM
I first heard Habbox when I heard Mizki and Sierk's name. Then I started to hear Habbox from other fansites like Habbodiscussion and so on..
But back then, I was too busy to join in any other fansite's forums, and also changed my habbo name as well.
Recently I started to get on Habbo and remembered about Habbox, so I joined. :)

As my sister played Habbo before me she always told me to use Habbox for rare values, and so I did. Then one day I heard a competition occurring on HxL whilst browsing rares so I tuned in. DJ Melissa was on, and I couldn't hear her Habbo name properly, regardless I stayed for the HxEE and although I began about a week later than everyone else I managed to get 2nd place and unlike some who just stay for events I stayed on the Forum too and I am still here today!

I stumbled on it when i was looking for somewhere that i could start djing again and went to the habbo fansites and went to it.. After that i was finding out as much as i could playing events and tuning in.. And now look at me.. Head dj. Expert rare valuer. Comp staff and events.. Wow

I became staff in 2010, resigned 2011.
-- I joined in 2005, but I didn't actually make an account I don't think. --

How I found Habbox: well, when I had no idea what values were worth, I always got ripped off, I can't remember if people said 8.0 and 4.0 back then, but somehow like that that's how I found out about values, like what 1.0 was or whatever people used back then, and so, I asked this person, how do you know all the values for these furniture? And so he told me Habbox, I checked it out and thought it sucked. I used it quickly for values though, then in 2007-2008 habbox got better and looked better (I hope i've got all these years right!) But not to worry, I love habbox now (But really, why so many bugs this year :()

First used it in 2004 (when I started out on Habbo) for Rare Values. An irl mate showed it to me. Didn't sign up to the forums until four years ago though. Christ, I feel so old, seven years ago is when I started Habbo and I've been on here for four! :(
