Well maybe you could be right and the 'twinning' arrangements did give those with a big popular website a lot of advantage e.g. Habbox and ClubHabbo so it was more to do with the support site than the actual one applying to go official..Quote:

I do think Ludus is seriously compromising his professional image in doing this (I mean, what was left of it... but again, we won't go into that) and I hope that ExtremeHabbo can perhaps contact another member of Habbo Staff or, if not, go far without official status.
It was removed because of the public data being released, Ludus was told in a reply to the emails that several official fansites had public data leaked and nothing done.
all on the jewlake site and others.
Even in meaningful posts you refer to me as fry :@:@:@Quote:

Well thats disgraceful - Club Habbo certainly just recently got hacked, they weren't made unofficial. You should appeal. xo
Well it was the General Manager that did it according to the forum. I went on yesterday just to congratulate them and he being, somebody called Jordon, welcomed me and said 'Hi Rosie' so whoever Jordon was knew me. I asked him which Jordan as I know a few from being around quite a long time.
Ye I doubt that Lost_Witness will get involved this this as from all the initial emails about fansite fortnight, nominations and staff visits were emailed by Ludus and each with no mention of Lost_Witness. I think that it is an awful shame that they have lost their official status because I actually think that they we starting to show signs of becoming a promoising young site. As for them never becoming official again, I remember Callie saying that Habbox would never be an official fansite again and look where we are now. I hope that they dont loose heart and carry on improving and maybe in a year or so to come they could actually become official once again.
