I know it's fairly normal to have odd habits IRL and everyone has one but it got me thinking if anyone has any that relate to Habbox?
My really weird one is that I read every post in the request VIP features/usertitles whatever thread. Whenever it comes up on my new posts I click go to first unread post or whatever and read everything forward from there. There's no reason or need to it's just a THING that I do that is just so weird.
It used to be the case for every thread on Habbox but I gave up that years ago. Just the majority now.
Anyway what about you what weird Habbox habits do you have?? Please tell me I'm not the only one :'(
i always find myself double tapping the forum icon whenever i want to refresh the page, don't do it with other forums tho

I have myself on invisible and on my own friend list so that at the bottom of the page it shows FlyingJesus (http://www.habboxforum.com/member.php?u=24753)*+ because it looks fabulous*+*+*+
Also whenever I have notifications there's always a mixture of "woo something to reply to" and "oh boy what have I done now" but idk if that's particularly weird

I sometimes do the first thing you mentioned too :(
I also randomly read people's conversations on their profiles... so if I'm a recently visited person on your profile, watch out I'm probably accidentally spying on you :(

Yeah when the forum is dead and there's no new posts to look at I will look at my own profile to see how many views it's got because I LOVE it when it's a nice number. I missed 4444 a little while ago and I was so sad :'( Can't wait for 5000 now :¬:
Oh edit: I also go on other ppls profile and refresh until they reach a number ending in 5 or 0 and then I can leave again. But I don't specifically think "oh I'll go and even some up peoples profiles", it's just if Im already on someones profile!
I just love nice numbers. I do the same with tokens too - if I have a nice number of tokens I'll try to go without posting for as long as possible so I can keep looking at the nice number. Don't tell me I'm weird!!!

I hate even numbers (excluding 0 or numbers ending in 0).
I don't do anything to fix it like you, but even numbers just irritate me. Don't know why.

Not sure if this is weird, but I only ever use the 'HabboxForum' header to refresh the page. I never use F5.
All my staff forums have to be green (read). If they aren't that's the first thing I do when I get online.

This too.
All staff, Habbox Announcements, Development announcements and Job Openings all have to be read or I just can't cope.

When I was moderating certain sections, those sections always had to be green too. I've given up with that now haha.
Glad I'm not the only one though :P

I read the replies in the VIP request thread, and check the usertitles of the posters to see if they've been done yet.
I never click 'What's New?' it has to be New Posts.
I never increase the size of my quick reply box, if I do I get upset/annoyed that it won't go back to the perfect size.
no real habits. only thing I do is click 'new posts' like everyone 2 mins even tho there isn't gonna be a new thread everyone 2 mins, but guess everyone does that

I cant think of any weird habits other than the fact that I click new posts far too often and still expect there to be lots of new things to read. I guess I'm pretty normal!
i have to make sure i've read every thread in spam / tv & film or just making sure they aren't bold in the list when somebody new posts in it

This was one thing I used to pride myself on before I had access to A BILLION AND FOUR STAFF FORUMS :@

I didn't even know there was a what's new button until now but I always make sure my reply box is back to the normal size if I've expanded it for a thread or something!!!

Oh that's another thing, as a moderator I have this thing to sew if anything needs moderating like posts and stuff (I don't think they use it anymore since people's post didn't come up for ages after it) anyway, there's a visitor message button so I can see all visitor messages from the most recent. I often look who has sent one to who, what it said and occasionally freak people out thinking I've been spying on their profile when I haven't.

I used to make sure all threads in the staff forums were read. When I was AGM people thought I was checking up on them because random threads were constantly being checked by me (a)
I open all threads in a new tab.
I read all threads in the request VIP features thread (lol hi Laura and Sam, I'm so glad other people do this)
I read people's VM conversations if they look interesting
I think that's it

I don't normally read ppls vms unless I'm on their profile and see a weird one and want to find out more.
But YES I also open all new threads in a new tab. But I never use new posts (don't like it) so I just scroll down the forum, look for the specific forums I always like to read (Congrats, Feedback, sometimes Habbo General if it's quiet on the forum, Bobba + Scams, TV + Film, Discuss Anything, Education, Health and then Spam).
I will use Activity Stream but only if the forum's really slow and I'm desperately looking for anything new.

By sounds of it, it's more weird that I don't read the VIP thread :P
If I see a forum that has (11 viewing) or a high number, I'm like "whats going on in here" and always disappointed when it says:
(1 Member and 11 guests)
:(
I don't use What's New or Activity Stream/New Posts, I tend to find threads via the 'Who's Online' list and what other people are looking at.

I think the only weird habit I have is that if I'm bored enough I'll click 3 or 4 random profiles of people who are currently online and just see what they're looking at and just be a bit of a stalker. Then I realise that it's not overly interesting and get bored. Rinse and repeat.
