Saying "Habbox.vip" now mutes you for 10 mins.

[HC]

So I'm in my room on Stupid and I said "You need to say Habbox.vip to get into that part (to my brother) and I got muted... I came back on HC and said "I got muted for saying Habbox.vip" then I got muted again.... on my other account...

[Mr-Trainor]

Just tried saying that in a room but nothing happened to me? Maybe someone reported you?

[Jordan]

It might be because you said it quite a few times? I got muted for an hour because I kept saying the codeword to teleport me into the vip area a couple of weeks back.

[HC]

Nawww, I got muted on HC the second I said it when I went back into my room, apparently it's "Spamming" even though I said it once o_O. I guess putting "Say" or something infront of it mutes you lol cause I tried it on it's own and nothing happened... ughh LOL.

Hey,

In order to be muted for an offence of this nature will have had to have said something that could be consider spam or an attempt to scam people. Trigger words such as 'free', 'vip', 'credits', could end up muting you if Sulakes detection software thinks you could be saying it in an attempt to scam other users.

You would not get muted for saying "I got muted for saying Habbox.vip". I just tested this.

...No, you're all wrong.

You get muted if you say the same word/phrase at least 3/4/5 times. You could actually say something to violate the Habbo Way or say something perfectly fine, but if you say the word/phrase repeatedly - You'll be muted.

that seems to be the case tbh. Like everytime in trivia races recently you say like a topic twice cause u say just before the pc nb and you get muted it's a right pain ;l Obviously tho to add to what baailey said that 3/4/5 times resets after a certain amount of times otherwise ii would defo get muted every game cause of so many gmpts ;o

I see Habbos exhaustive and out of date security measures are at it again. Prosecute when the time arises - if someone is stupid enough to be scammed outside of the site then it is their fault - Habbo only need to reinstate your missing furniture if there is sufficient evidence someone else got hold of your account (and they really should have these systems in place) and educate their users. It's a "Teen Hangout" - if you're 12/13 and do not know anything about web security then having a go at "life" should be the last thing you should be attempting. Ah well, Habbo will be dead in the water soon and they only have themselves to blame.

[GoldenMerc]

Yeh prob spammed it

[Samantha]

Stupid; are you sure it's not because you said 'get into' although that could be sexual to an extent that could just be the default reason they mute you, spamming?

Surely if you said it on your account Stupid then HC it wouldn't be the fact you'd said the same sentence 4/5 times 650c; Janice;.

He didn't say it 3/4/5 times, he only said it once :P.

I can assure you that the system will not mute you if you simply say the same word or phrase in a fashion that wouldn't be considered spam. If you are spamming a word, or words that are very similar ('You're Gay!', 'You're Gay!!') with less than say a seconds gap. Which is extremely fast for a regular typist, then you're going to be picked up for spamming, warned, and then muted.

If you do get caught once, you will be warned. The second time will be a mute. It's a perfectly acceptable system, that works very well.

not really fair at all, ruins games like trivia now and you don't get warned at all sometimes. It's stupid cause like every trivia game now like 3 people get muted lmao and you think that's an acceptable system? Two words within a seconds gap should not be muting people, three at minimum tbh

Two words within a second or so gap will not mute you, so long as those two words are reasonably different. ("Hello", "Goodbye"). Spamming the same words will get you muted. There is no game that requires you to spam, if you're playing a trivia game it is typically the first person that answers who wins. Prepare your answer, and say it first. Saying the same answer over and over will not win you the game!

no its like o your preparing for the pc nb: and someone else near host speaks and you accidently press so quickly say it again afterwards and get muted, easily happens quite a bit and is really dodgy. its got nothing to do with the questions cause ofc you'd answer that only once but the pc if u accidently say before then can easily happen

Then you see it's not the systems fault, and is actually because of your accident! No one can try and blame technology that is used to detect spammers (and surely you can see how it does?), because of an accident on your behalf! The warning should always come first though, just incase you do make a mistake. Guess you'll have to try and be more careful.

well it's pretty stupid to have it for two things that are the same anyway as it's really not spamming and many people will accidently double messages and get muted, while no-one gonna accidently do 3 while it's still not gonna cause problems! But it pretty much is the systems fault like if you can see everyone is saying things quicker then the time should reduce tbh

Gotta agree with Janice on this one as much as i hate to. The system doesn't really make games any easier and I know, being a roleplayer, I've been muted so many times for combat roleplay, urgh.

Perhaps you should change the infamous

-tears to the head-
-shoots to the head-
-rips off the head-

Lines into something a bit more descriptive!

Ya, I'm just not sure... Saying it on it's own did nothing.... I'm sure it has something to do with "Say Habbox.vip" or something with Say/Saying infront of it... I'm not gonna try it again though. Plus for all those who said I spammed it - I said it once to my brother as he came to my room and wanted to go into my vip section :(

Typical stereotype.

That's spam roleplay for you, people use that in gang roleplay just to kill other people, in quality roleplays LYKE MYNE we do descriptive lines, detail and quality. I'd prefer you not to stereotype us pls :'( !!
