????! why does habbox have a former fansite's url

some of us at chf (rip) were just curious

Chris

So that former club habbo members know where to come for the best fansite around!

Due to Matt having a hobby of collecting dead Fansites to redirect to Habboxforum.com

When domain names come available to buy by the general public anyone is allowed to buy it and use that domain name for whatever purpose they have with it. In this case it is being redirected to another website.

The CH Remnant was just curious, no need to be so defensive.

The main thing they've taken offense over is the comic sans script that appears for adblocker users.

How are you disappointed? Like Matt said anyone can use the domain if it's not already taken. It's rather playing a game to get new members.

The Club Habbo URLS are still in my suggested sites. Happens when you visited it so often during its run. Don't visit much sites that start with C anymore, so accidents may happen.

But I ended up clicking on a link of clubhabboforum and it led me here. Believe I was on the internet archive. Imagine my surprise when I discovered it led to Habbox. Didn't think they had to piggyback off the traffic of older sites.

The difference being that Facebook has already urls like fb.me, which is already related to its name. ClubHabboForum was completely separate to HabboxForum in all accounts.

Never gonna buy one again now they've exceeded 15!!!!!!

I think the point is the community for CHF is (although you can't see it) still here so it's a bit rude to us just because none of us were intelligent enough to take the domain doesn't mean it's not still going to cause a stir within our community

ClubHabbo had a great run, and we decided to let it end and let the memories rest in peace (heh). To see another fansite try and take ownership of it is unsettling. Why use what was ours and not any others?

If you wanted it, should have bought it. At the end of the day ANY PERSON IN THE WORLD could have bought the domain name.

What we are trying to say is that the url should have remained unused until some chinese company wanted to try and expand their western market share with it, not being used as a redirect lol

You are all welcome to create and participate within the habbox community if you've been rejected elsewhere :)

Many older members around here have used chf in the past and so it makes some sense to redirect to habbox on the off chance that somebody might want to reconnect with chf members by typing the URL.

I don't see any harm in it really. Someone might have bought it and attempted to make a fansite anyway? I think it's nice because as people have said, clubhabbo and habbox were quite often connected in ways. I don't think many people will attempt to visit it anyway though since it's not being advertised etc.

I can see why the CHF community wouldn't be pleased 'bout that. If somehow we ended before them and they used our domain (or if any fansite did) - I'm pretty sure there will be members of this community that feel the same way they do.

As it's been said though, once a domain is available it is put out there for anyone to use.

Hold on, you aren't being affected. The domain name was dead and if you went to it before it was bought you wouldn't even load a site. None of you are affected by the domain name redirecting to Habbox. ClubHabbo closed down ages ago, that's what affected you. Not Habbox.

Considering it's been like this since August, it took you this long for you to express your concerns. Wow, it must have really affected you :rolleyes:.
