I don't see the point, he's losing traffic and probably advertising revenue (I dunno if he runs ads or not) and not gaining the site any reputation other than one that thinks by closing the site down, people will notice it's gone? Nah mate, I didn't even know it existed until now and by the sounds of it, it's ran by a bloke who thinks stamping his feet will get him what he wants.
No thanks lad.
http://snaphabbo.com/blackout/ is in a blackout too, seen quite a bit of them recently!
idk why these fansites think it's going to do them any favours.
the tumblr is the one that shedim owns...
so atm we have habbosecrets, snaphabbo and thishabbo supporting a black out whereas the real fansites such as hffm and habbox continue to support the exisiting habbo community:

ThisHabbo have put a very personal message against Powertoo, very lame.
I can see why Habbo wouldn't want Habbo secrets official anyway. They basically take the fun out of competitions. You can say "if you don't want it ruined, don't look" but the temptation when you're struggling is too high just to go on the site and see a one word answer for the prize, which is what I do.
If habbo made it official, people would be like "ooo I can check this for all the answers" and it would be more advertised and all the fun would be taken out of Habbo quests and games, which it kind of already is because everyone uses HS anyway and the majority of people just blitz through the quests because they are fed the answers.
There are too many other fansites people can turn to even they blackout. The only unique one that has had a black out is Habbosecrets which people will miss, but it could be replaced.
In my opinion, they only have the support of their sites, not the general community. ThisHabbo post so much they don't care about their official status and then have a panic attack when they don't get nominated. Powertoo has made some good decisions, the five sites might not be the most popular but they all offer something different and have potential to be good official sites.
Habbo creation is kinda cool I suppose.
yeah, pretty sure he made it up

hffm put up a twitter message saying they will support the community and this is how the owner of snaphabbo (funkydjparty) reacts
he's just made sure he'll never get official, fansites shouldn't be against one another
maybe the most depressing thing about it is that he owns a fansite and doesnt know the difference between lose and loose
I hope HK doesn't become official, they aren't a good example.

sour grapes
ThisHabbo being denied official status is justified. For months, years I dare say all they did to gain listeners was host fake giveaways almost every hour of the day as well as be abusive to listeners on air. It was brought to the attention of Grecian9 and he responded appropriately.
Plus the whole silver trophy leak pretty much confirmed the level of professionalism over at TH.
All this attacking of Powertoo is completely wrong and I feel sorry for her.
thishabbo shouldn't be allowed back and have no right to protest lol and I don't think habbosecrets should get it when their main function is to provide answers to quests. Can understand their fustration though... tumblr sites getting official status?! That is a joke
Agreed. People use the site not because they want to cheat, but because everyone else does. I would rather find the answers to quests without any help but I end up looking at HabboSecrets because everyone else does. Why should I complete the quests the legit way when everyone else takes a mere few seconds to look up a site that will give them the answer for free? I think many people are of this train of thought.
I think Powertoo is correct in denying this site official status. While the site does help the people struggling with quests, it also takes the fun and challenge out of them. Supporting this type of website only encourages the leaking of answers. While it's not possible to eliminate these sites, it IS possible for staff to ignore them and refuse them official status.
they shud remove puhekupla from the official fansites
Alright this may be a little bit off-topic but meh
Isn't habbosecrets just an answers site very similar to my group B4dge and Answers? The groups we're around years so why was a site made? :P
Very pathetic if you ask me.
I didn't know there were so many inmature people owning that kind of websites. This is getting totally ridiculous. I'd feel totally embarrased if I was any of them, to be honest.
From experience, this isn't the best way to get what you want. They are just demostrating how inmature they are. This reminds me to a baby crying because he didn't get the candy he wanted, which makes me laugh lmao.

As I said several times, I consider HS a good and useful website, but that doesn't mean they should be official. They got famous because of the badges guides they do, not for the rest. If people read it it's because they want to get badges for doing nothing, so the excuse of "we have more than badge guides" doesn't count at all. They obviously know people who read it it's because of that, so they are just lying himselves.
If HS becomes official, the games created by Habbo will loose all the challange since everyone will be able to get all the badges easily for doing, technically, "nothing". Habbo obviously won't support that kind of fansites, even being something "new in Habbo", and I agree with them.
About ThisHabbo I don't know it. But if they were rejected it's for some reason. Starting to crying won't help.
omg so petty and embarrassing DEMANDING recognition and blacking out as if they actually believe it will have an impact :L
secrets does nothing but ruin the work that goes into the events for the staff. all of those lies about their non existent community and dressing up their spoilers as assisting the habbo community just wont cut it
I see how this blackout is gonna turn out.
Not gonna do anything much anyway.
HS SUCKS!!!!
VADO SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!
