Bring Casino's Back Petition

It wouldn't be a problem if users didn't ave to purchase credits for real money, if you earned the credits from things like; online time, winning mini-games etc... It would be fine to allow them to return.

Gambling as far as its definition is concerned legally or otherwise as I've repeatedly expressed is for items of monetary value. Habbo coins or furniture do not directly constitute this and therefore it is 100% LEGAL.

With regards to Apple iStore T&C's the same applies and thus (as I've said previously) examples can be seen in similar young demographic games where often even more prominent 'casino' based games exist which have been promoted and developed by the game creators themselves. Puzzle Pirates a named example currently in the iStore.

Any suggestion that Habbo removed dice-based games and I again repeat that these are dice-based games encompassing not only the activities of casino's but other games that do not involve apparent 'gambling' game-play as a result of a threat of legal prosecution or entry to the app store is just ludicrous.

So please read my posts before spurting out non-sense. In the full sense of irony I'm not sure what people like you don't understand about that.

P.S. I bet you supported Kass on Survivor too.

Underage people buy coins
they use these coins to gamble in casinos with the possibility to lose them & the money they spent, therefore it is gambling.

Casinos won't be unbanned. please move on.

Why the hell should we allow kids to gamble money on an onilne game so that you 46 year old morons can take precious credits from them?

Its gambling, Yes, BUT! i dont see why its a problem for 13/14 year old to do it on habbo? Ok its not the best practice for later life but its not as if anyone forces you to bet your coins, after all they are supposed to have no monetary value so its no Illegal per-say. Its a shame they went and they wont ever return! It heads off into the Habbo in the sky with the Lido, Infobus and now The casino! Well done sulake! Yet another BLUNDER!

You buy credits with money in real-life then gamble the credits in casino rooms? It is illegal.

That's like an underage better going into a casino and exchanging real-life money for casino chips and then gambling with those chips at the various games in the casino.

What is the difference between that and what happened on Habbo?

Both. You have the option to buy and earn.

Go play Zynga Poker and shut the hell up.

I use to go to casinos and I'm happy they're gone less scamming and hacking to deal with the only problem I don't like about is
the dice limit..
