Comic **** removal

[Andii]

Why was this removed??? And wer was ye poll to ask if anyone wanted it removed????

Is it because managers don't like it ???

Where is our freedom of speech noooooooo


ps nachos are like the most yummy food ever

[xxMATTGxx]

Comic **** should not be used by any person living on earth.

[Andii]

That's you opinion tho you can't force it on others, you have no right to do that, that's like me saying OMG no one should ever eat sweets ever.
Its stupid and obviously never going to work

You should really read about the font.

[Scania]

Comic **** is only something a pre-pubescent chav writes with on her little fan posters. xo

[xxMATTGxx]

It's only banned to educate the community that the font should never be used in whatever they are planning to use it for.

[Martin]

Personally I quite like it and it looks quite fun and fresh, each to their own though I guess :'( I will miss it irl!!

I'm playing devils advocate with this whole thing but comic sans is about as fresh as this (http://prospect.rsc.org/blogs/cw/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/mouldy-bread-fd002575.jpg). Come on now.

[Kieran]

Just no Martin! It is not fun and it is not fresh. It's childish. End of :P

[Mr-Trainor]

I always just use verdana on the forum anyway. I used to alwayss use comic **** for homework/coursework though :P. Idk why it's gone, though.

Blame Martin for making a thread with a large amount of text in the font and tagging me into it.

I remember I used it when I was 14 and cool. But now I never do anymore. Although I don't see why it was removed, if people enjoyed it, it should have been an option, albeit not a popular one.

Its gone because managers don't like it

and so then what is the forum about??? I thought it was where people could just chill and have discussions about things never knew it was a serious matter to use correct font. Call the grammar police we have a case where someone was being themselves. Next thing you know I will be getting mod warnings for not spelling correctly or not using a comma when needed. Man my inbox will get full in like 2hours of mod warnings.

Why is Habbox being so strick now???
Man it's being like Habbo getting worse day by day. Being back hxf 2k7

But I wasn't here in 2007 :(. But yeah, bring it back!! lol.

[xxMATTGxx]

Banning a font to see the reaction is actually quite funny. I knew there would be one person to post a feedback on the matter because that's what happens on Habbox, you get a feedback thread on anything and everything even if it's the tiniest part of the forum that doesn't affect that many things. The font is bad and if you use it in any professional manner then shame on you. You can have the font back - The ban wasn't even perm but some people can be wound up easily and think everything is permanent. You never heard of trolling or trying to have a bit of fun and see the reaction of things? I didn't even post an announcement about the change. Get with it people.

[scottish]

if xxMATTGxx; didn't make a fuss over it no-one would have used the font again

why the **** is sans filtered though that's just stupid.

[xxMATTGxx]

The filtered word stops people from actually using the font fully and reverts it to the default font if they tried to change the BBCode. I didn't really make a fuss, I commented on it in post on the forum before banning it - Read my post above anyway :P

[mrwoooooooo]

I'm all for giving out warnings for not using correct grammar and punctuation etc.

This is just a teenagers forum!!

[lawrawrrr]

Why on earth have you filtered saans...

[Inseriousity.]

As punishment for Matt's poor trolling, we should all use this font for the rest of the month. wow it's ugly, you guys like this?

[David]

[lawrawrrr]

Oh I see. It's ridiculous because there are tons of other fonts called something Sans....

[scottish]

I agree Inseriousity.; if he never mentioned anything no-one would of thought twice about using it again fro months probably

so it's all his own fault :p

xxMATTGxx; can we change the default text to Comic Sans MS

[David]

dont you have to put the bb code in everytime though thats more annoying to the user than matt imo

[xxMATTGxx]

It was unfiltered 2 hours ago people :P

They would have had to If I still kept it off the font selection menus.

[Martin]

YAY THANKS FOR PUTTING IT BACK :D

COMICS SANS SHOULD BURN IN FONT HELL.

[Chris]

Its a vile font, I regret every using it as a kid. :P

[Doughnut]

It just reminds me of primary school ;l

It's what all the teachers used for homework etc. It's an ugly font and should be torched

[Calvin]

The font is bad and if you use it in any professional manner then shame on you.I don't particularly like the font, but let's be honest.. HabboxForum is hardly posts full of professionalism? :P

Banning a font on a forum for teenagers to stop them will do nothing as the main users of Comic Sans are people in education, it sure sucked using that font and size 12 for certain assignment. Approach a teachers discussion board about it!

[Calvin]
