I keep seeing this picture advertising the builders club

and it's annoying me because it's very misleading why show a picture of a room built with furni not avaliable through the builders club? I know people can see what's in the trial but what if they think those furniture would be avaliable after the subscribe? Naughty habbo.

Put simply that is false advertising to the extreme lol. Wouldn't be surprised if users who didn't know any better attempted to get a refund after finding out the huge limitations of furni choice mean that no, hardly anything can actually be created to that standard in the advertisement

Yeah I mean it's just highlighting the poor quality of the furniture avaliable through the builders club if they can't even build a room they think worth putting in the advertisement :l
Wow like 11$ CAD a month is a lot to spend on furni that you don't even get to keep and for it to be mostly junk... Would rather buy credits if I still bought them....
omg no way i was just listening to jai ho and ur name comes up in new posts

False advertising at it's best right there. Could have made a better banner?

Spooky!
Doesn't surprise me. People wouldn't be interested in it if the image only showed small rooms with 150 furnis in it. It's all about the money for habbo, they just want people to buy it and will do anything to achieve that (even if it is false advertising)

It is false advertising but at the end of the day like everyone's said they will do it for the money, they know it's a teenage audience and will target then with luxuries just so they but it, then coming I find it's not available; like someone mentioned thy might be bring out new exclusives, but now they've falsely advertised do people still want to buy it?

Don't see the point in the builders club. Habbo just want money coming in which they know people will pay because they have subscribed.

Why is habbo allowed to get away with things that would not be ok in the real world. Be it false advertising or ****** customer service. When will they be held accountable?

Sick of habbos misrepresentation of the builders club the latest is
"Have you ever wanted to build a room with virtually unlimited furni?"
Definition of unnlimited: not limited; having the greatest possible amount, number, or level
Definition of virtually: for the most part; almost wholly; just about.
So basically they are claiming that the BC gives you for the most part unlimited furni which is b.s

Lmaoo, that is funny. It's so true though. Saying you get unlimited then offering you a higher limit if you then out -___-

Pretty sure The furni in that advertisement is Halloween furni, which is when the BC was first introduced (round-a-bout) or when they made the banner for advertising.
Now if you read the actual BC membership information you'll see the following line:http://tashload.com/Uploader/uploads//AjjGYs1.png
Technically not false advertising, just bad advertising.
