Habbo to support Japan

Uh.. Support doesn't mean Financial support.. (If you are thinking that way)

Hey i looked it up in the dictionary
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/support
No where does it describe what this person wants to do, only what im saying.

it's not pointless though as i've already explained, it's symbolic and could possibly represent the charitable goodness of the ones who have donated? and if not then their goodwill towards those in japan or MORAL SUPPORT but youre just going to dismiss that. you can't just claim that they wont see the relation between the two.... i'm sure those who don't know will probably ask why everyone on the hotel are wearing headbands

go ahead you're entitled to your own opinion but nobody in this thread asked for it

Moral support from a virtual hotel is useless when you're going through a natural disaster i imagine.


Well to be fair, i just had the one post. Others also expressed their dislike for it.

But then you guyz decided to call me out on it and create some long ass arguement. This is a forum, where opinions are generally discussed and whatnot. Its like in the film forum, and you post about a film. You cant just have people saying they like it, that'd just be dumb and people would think its a really good film. (unless it is a really good film then nvmnvmnvm).

Got mine on.. a head band and belt

it helps raise awareness, stop being so negative .___.

Awareness for what? Everyone knows about Japan by now, if anyone doesn't - theyreally need to crawl out of their hole. This idea is pathetic and silly, by putting on Japanese clothes on Habbo doesn't show your support at all. It shows you're being silly wasting your time on Habbo pretending to care, if someone really cares then they should be donating money to Japan and not dressing up on Habbo TRYING to look like you care.

Shaz you'd be surprised... It does help raise awareness and tbh i think it's a good idea. To any trolls out there you're right... This will have no direct affect to the Japanese but on the other hand does praying help any more? Of course doing something useful such as donating to the red cross will help most but some people might not have that opportunity... It is times like these that we should really think what the hell we are doing... Some days one might think ahh i lost 5 euros, dollars or pounds from my wallet... well thousands of people have lost their whole houses... The recovery period will be decades and we most certainly will feel some effect of this disaster even though it's not happening to us in person. Going back on topic yes it might not be the best choice morally to wear a bandanna as it might be mocking their culture in any way i'd rather wear red and white and put something in my motto but all in all it does pass on a message to those ignorant enough to do nothing about it... Just my opinion feel free to flame it or agree with it...

What a useless idea. Its not going to help Japan overcome the situation. Dont waste your money on pixel headbands. Please just go and donate to the official donation organisation,

They are in need of help. We should all help.

I don't think the people who are wanting to wear headbands were expecting there awareness to help Japan overcome the situation. All they are doing is showing they care about what has happened and are thinking of them. There are Habbo users who are young, I don't expect them to donate.

I had the headband on but then it got taken of i think lol :P

Japan has the finance to help itself out, it doesn't need help. Especially from Habbo! Natural disasters occur all over the world, we don't need to show support in this form. If you really want to help out donate your funds to charities that aid this disaster.

They don't need money, they have that.

They need aid!

Depends on a person's opinion , really. I think it's cute on the other hand , yes it is like - useless.

that is so ridiculous, showing support whether it helps or not is a very respectful thing to do. it's not 'just' a natural disaster and so what if they have the finance to sort themselves out? every little helps. what if it happened to the uk and no-one helped us even though we could do it ourselves? you wouldn't be happy... lol i really can't believe someone would actually argue against this, this can only benefit the whole situation, there is no harm in it. things like these need support in any form, to idk... show the world and especially japan that there's still hope? that people are actually human and care? cause that's really not the vibe i get from some people.... i guess some of you are too cold-hearted and pathetic to realise that. no-one is asking for YOUR support but having to dismiss and criticise people's ideas is just disgusting. you can't even show just a little tiny support and respect to all those that have died and those who've lost everything? yeah i'm not just talking you, just everyone. urgh

tara is right, showing support = raising awareness = more donations. a lot of kids use habbo and kids are easily persuaded and will want to help out that can ONLY be a good thing? at least they're being educated on what goes on in the world, that they can actually do something about it and be taught to sympathise with others by showing their support, i thought that was part of being human.

none of you would have the balls to say this or any jokes in the real world, i'd love to see you try. i really do wonder what is wrong with the people who do? it only shows a lack of empathy. tbh from what i've seen from this thread, those that are going against the support just look like they want to win some sort of argument because they probably couldn't do it in real life lmao

& anyone who uses the excuse "just because you love the japanese" then i really don't give a **** cause it's true, i like japanese people so YES i do care more than i would about any other culture but i don't think that's a bad thing. & now i look like an idiot but i said what i wanted to so from now on i'll just ignore anything that's said on here or facebook about it cause i've actually found a place where people don't try to impress others with their sad lives and lame jokes. yes it exists.

also shaz if it was ******* south korea i bet you'd be all up on that **** slagging off every person who refused to show their support >.< i doubt anyone is PRETENDING they care? why would they bother? i'd rather someone pretend they care than just to be an ass about the whole thing. i can't even put in to words what i want to say..

& no i won't be using habbo to show my support but i have donated and will continue to do so =]

I kind of stopped at 'that is so ridiculous'. People have their own opinions and this is a forum to express your opinions :) Peoples opinions you may not agree with, but that is life.

yeah you're right, i've spent too much time talking to mature people who can back up their opinions and provide decent argument that i just got in to the habit. damn i thought you'd be one of those people but it looks like i was disappointed. it won't happen again sir. :rolleyes:

I read this as Habbo was supporting the Japan Earthquake relief efforts, I nearly chocked because we all know that won't happen :P

To be honest, changing your digital avatar to raise awareness for Japan is a bit pointless when everyone and their dog knows what happened in Japan. If you want to help, give some money alongside changing your digital, useless avatar. Tell people to support the relief efforts beyond that of your useless, digital avatar, because at the moment it seems to be more focused on a belt or an item of useless headgear, which isn't helping. It's all well and good raising awareness, but if you're not telling people to actually help then your efforts are futile.

Im struggling to see your point here.

^ Adding to this:

Gay Pride events usually have volunteers giving out sexual health tips and advice, as well as condoms.
PETA is a joke and technically do not count. But they're usually protesting in front of places who are suspected of being cruel to animals.

Pretty much this jen.

Also its kind of wrong to assume that no one would say this in real life. Why not? Its my opinion and ill stand by this. Im sure people will agree with me irl and if they dont who cares. I had some bigass debate about tuition fees where EVERYONE, literally EVERYONE was against me, did i give a damn? Nope, kept arguing my point because i support my opinions. If i realise the other person is right then sometimes i can be a tad stubborn and keep arguing my point, but more often than not ill admit i was wrong n thats that.

As for dismissing their idea, yeah of course i am. Its my opinion like ive stated and i backed it up when they called me out on it. Like many have said before, its a forum and that is for discussing and putting forward your opinions, whilst backing them up. All of which i have done.

I still find it a stupid idea and stand by that.

You're right, it isnt. But it does show that you probably aren't that old implying you aren't mature. Also your quick temper probably isnt helping. And the fact you're making this an arguement when im trying to help you.

yeah you can stand up for yourself so much that you had to wait until someone else posted and quoted them to justify yourself before you could reply to me? i see.
& i love how everyone just says "it's my opinion" yeah that's great really, good for you but if you want to defend your opinion then do so not by just saying it's your opinion. you're dismissing it - why? where is the disadvantages? what is the harm in doing it? i still don't see any, it's not even pointless.
+ as for gommeinc's point (which you say you agree with lollololollol only cause he said he thinks it's pointless) saying that habbo doesn't tell them how to help - they're still raising awareness. say someone who doesn't see how serious it really is goes on to habbo and sees that people wearing bandanna's, they'll ask why they're doing it & then won't they conform? won't they want to show support and help? it's really not that hard to ask someone on habbo how to donate or google how to. it's better than nothing *sigh*, even if it persuades just one person to go out and donate then it's good enough for me.
i really don't see the harm doing it... no-one is telling me.

I was at college and only just came back so obv didnt see it stooooopid.
If you'd read my earlier posts you'll see. Im not going to repeat myself when if you just read the thread you can see what i stated the disadvantages and harm in it is.

People also dress up in afros and say the pool has aids on habbo, honestly the whole dressing up thing has totally no effect on helping. Sure it shows that you care a bit, but really dont think the Japanese care about that. And im just saying its pointless and it annoys me because they think they're supporting and helping loads because they changed their outfit on habbo. Big ******* woop.
The harm is that they're giving others the idea that they're actually helping and supporting when in fact they could just go and actually support them and donate. Ugh repeating myself sigh.



@thewinner, whatever its still stupid and you ignored the rest of my post where i clearly stated i was trying to help you.

and jen shut up :(
