!!!!!!DONATION NEWS!!!!!!
In 2007 we donated a proportion of money to the Royal British Legion from the sale of poppies. A whopping £100. Well done everyone, that was £100 extra from you guys!
Lets get buying them in 2008 so we can send some more!

Exactly, sulake aim yes, to achieve satisfaction from the user, but there not there just for our benefits, they do what they do to actually make money, if they hadn't made money in the first place, buying it for £1Million, they wouldn't have got far.

I know for a fact you love Habbo, Mike. If you didn't pay for your HC, furni and Habbo Home stickers, they won't be able to make their offices or pay the staff. How does a company run itself without offices or staff?

Of course it's just for the money. That's how the world works. Habbo wasn't made by a pair of friendly men for the fun of it - it was made because there was a gap in the market and they had the dollar signs in their eyes. How naive.

They should donate £1 per poppy bought

Although it's for charity, and in the grand scheme of things it may not seem like that much, but they'd be making a loss of 80p per poppy, if they did that.

I think that just the proceeds from the poppies is reasonable - the real poppies are at no set price, and most people give about 20-50p. They said they gave £100 last year, meaning they sold about 1000-2000 poppies. The charity are happy for any effort made.
