Habbox History

[Chippiewill]

I'm not entirely sure exactly where to post this, but this is as good as any I guess.

On HabboxWiki I am hoping to get a lot of Habbox's past properly documented to make it easily accessible for future people to read and whatnot. There are plenty of areas where I feel it would be great to get info on.

We would love to have images of:
- Past Help Desks
- Past (& current but hidden) forum skins
- Past site skins
- Any other major Habbox Rooms (And accompanying info)

We would love to have a brief history of:
- KKK/Smiddy's Shack/Rolf Harris (I believe there's a whole thread on KKK history somewhere buried)
- 56ers

Also any other notable events in habbox history would be helpful. It does help that we've had reflection threads and the like recently.

[Catchy]

I know that there's a thread dedicated to past help desk screenshots and there's loads, it's a matter of hunting it down though.

[Samantha]

If I remember correctly nvrspk4; still has an old Help Desk room? Was that the official one, if it was that could be included?

[Chippiewill]

A lot of those pictures don't have dates to them, if people have good memories it would be nice to get the dates.

[lawrawrrr]

- Any other major Habbox Rooms (And accompanying info) Roxy's Park/swimming pool, Zak's Maze, Dan's Trade City (Varnius is Official now isn't it?)

We would love to have a brief history of:
- KKK/Smiddy's Shack/Rolf Harris (I believe there's a whole thread on KKK history somewhere buried) Think Neversoft; FlyingJesus; would be helpful here ;)

Saying that wouldn't it be fairer to include all the official rooms? Also with Varnius' room we can brush up on the fact that it's the Habbox Lottery sponsor room etc.

[Calvin]

David (HotelUser) would be the best person to ask. I'm pretty sure he used to have hundreds of screenshots of the old Help Desks, along with Catchy;, scottish; and a few others (myself, eek) abusing visitors. :P

No don't think so, oh is Jas' room a beach I thought it was a Swimming Pool not sure why haha! Yeah I think that's it but I could be wrong. I remember my Telephrase Maze was going to be official but was mainly suited to an event so I dismantled it. scottish; Telephrase Maze isn't official is it?

[lawrawrrr]

Didn't know he owned one!! I vote Plebings; mini PQ for official!!!!!!

Found this post which may help you with KKK etc


Ku Klux Klan, often abbreviated KKK and informally known as The Klan, is the name of three distinct past and present far-right organizations in the United States, which have advocated extremist reactionary currents such as white supremacy, white nationalism, and anti-immigration, historically expressed through terrorism. Since the mid-20th century, the KKK has also been anti-communist. The current manifestation is splintered into several chapters and is classified as a hate group.

However if you're talking about the Habbox version of the KKK then that is referring to the KL KREW KAMP. It started as a simple thread in user Smiddy1234's VIP subforum where myself and him would often converse to no end, but after about 100 pages of conversation between us two others started to join in and it became a rapidly expanding empire, thus the KKK was born. The largest, most prominent and only surviving group on Habbox Forum. We have since lost Smiddy's subforum to the admins, but the main thread remains stuck at the top of the spam forum, upon its throne.

If you would like to know more then here are the KKK History Archives (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=653643), written by our very own FlyingJesus. Although the KKK is currently suffering through depressing due to the absence of co-founder Smiddy so the archives haven't been updated in a while. Also, here is the KKK Member Thread (http://www.habboxforum.com/showthread.php?t=653642) which is also a little outdated now, but it gives you an idea of the kind of kl people that were allowed to join this exclusive group.

[Chippiewill]

It would be awesome if Neversoft; could write an updated version of the history <3.

[Plebings]

Didn't know he owned one!! I vote @Plebings (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=59923); mini PQ for official!!!!!!

i don't think i'd ever be official anything though, i mean if i have to advertise websites in my room then i'd feel inclined to have to keep the maze. IT IS MINE AND MINE ONLY.

I remember that Bunny one? Wasn't it the anti-Habbox Help Desk whereby people who were banned/hated Habbox could go behind the desk and stuff? Not sure like when Ben resigned maybe, I could be wrong but I remember going in it :P.

Yeah, David created for Tara and all the others that were getting banned in the help desk to use and gave them rights. I loved that help desk :(

Past Help Desk Owners: Mizki, DJ-3000, 8Freak8, Eckuii, Re-Call (?), me, :Jin:, xxMattGxx

Maybe Sammeth. and Hecktix had it at one point?

Jrh2002 used to have a Habbox Trade Room, and either he or Sierk owned a Habbox Casino for a bit.

and me for 7 months last year, from April to November although we'll forget about that because my layouts were absolutely awful haha. I don't remember Hecktix having it though, might be wrong.

Sammeth. did and so did -Danube- too!

[nvrspk4]

Sammeth and Dan were after my time I think :P

Hecktix had it way back, after I was manager I believe, but before I became owner. Probably right after Freak in ownership. I'm sure if you spent some time in announcements you could figure out the full progression.

Was Jin straight after you then? I know it went either you, Sam and then Jin or the other way round. Learn something new I guess everyday! :P

---MAD--- also owned a Habbox casino like Scott said earlier, the rooms still there but whether it's still intact (I haven't looked) is another story.

I believe it was nvr Sam then jin as you said as i wasnt here when nvr had it but was when Sam did lol

[nvrspk4]

Sorry my memory has gone to crap, used to remember so many random bits of Habbox History :P I switched the Help Desk to Sammeth. near the end of my time as GM because he was on in UK times so when we reopened the help desk it was owned by him.


Room Owner - Originally I only owned the desk because nobody else could, it meant the closure of HxHD or me owning it, and I didn't want it to go down. With me having increased responsibilities I've spent less and less time on Habbo, and I've been looking to move the help desk for a while. However a manager owning it simply is not plausible because name recognition is huge and it also has to stay under a certain name for a period of time. A long period of time. But with Sammeth. now on the team, he will own the new Help Desk! Hopefully this will allow the Help Desk and events to function more smoothly.

He then turned it over when he quit as AGM Community, though he did come back as AGM (Staff) a few days later because I convinced him that it was a reduced workload so he stayed because he's uber.

Jrh2002 used to have a Habbox Trade Room, and either he or Sierk owned a Habbox Casino for a bit.

By coincidence Re-Call messaged me yesterday, and I've asked him to look at this thread. He was involved in HxHD for a good 4 years or so, beginning with the period when DJ-3000 was Manager. When DJ-3000 left did Spectate replace him? He was Assistant Manager when DJ-3000 quit.

Both sierk and jrh2002 had a Habbox Trade room, and casinos. Does sierk's casino still exist, it may do? I know for certain one of sierk's trade room still exists (I believe sierk had at least 2), as it's linked to one of my rooms, and I have rights in there.

Awww, You remembered me nvr :)

[nvrspk4]

Always ;) Didn't remember if you owned the room, though I do remember that Hayley was your Assistant Manager. Alice, I do believe Spectate owned the room for a bit. ---MAD--- may have owned it at one point as well? Or maybe that's when I started owning it...

Not sure about the room though, haven't been on in ages.

[Re-Call]

8Freak8 owned the Help Desk when I was manager, Don't remember much as it was a fair few years back!

[scottish]

Dan (dan2nd) and hayley were (asst) manager when 8freak8 or you (nvrspk) owned the help desk i'm sure.

[-:Undertaker:-]

I think that Plebo (or what was his name?) deserves a page of his own. :P Also, what about the famous ---MAD--- era with all forum protests? surely deserves a mention? then there's the Samovar Crisis, the reputation arguments under ---MAD---, Habbox being stripped of it's offical status years ago when it was hacked etc.

Maybe could go under 'controversies'.
