Now, i know that i got hacked and left habbo and everything, but whoever made the advent calenders used my thing :(
Edit by Adzeh (Forum Moderator) : Thread moved from "Habbo UK News & Rumours" to "Bobba". Left open due to it being an interesting topic :).
Lol, try to get a free something out of it!
How darning annoying is that, i get hacked then habbo steal my alts!
When I first watched that movie I thought the habbo looked exackly like you.
But they use the advent all around the world so it'll be made by techies in Helsinki I imagine.
Yeah, but if you look at .Lynns post which shows the original Habbowood one, the Advent calendar doesn't look to different to that.
But yeah, they have used the one that you made [well expanded] and used your habbo but isnt there something in their discalimers that any alterations of their graphics can be used by them without permission? Im offf to check :[
Correct, but still unethical?
Anyhoo, i made a new habbo: Charisme.
hmm that alt isn't fully yours as it was in the sci fi section of the habbowood movie creaters.
they are a bit differnt but it is your habbo....
they'll probaly give you like a month of HC :rolleyes:
Cheep, i thought it looked like you :l i was going to pm you but ya know.
Someone said Steve aka Schleaze did the calender?
Kotu makes them I believe. However, I've seen alot of people's alts around.
Contact habbo about it, and see what they have to say.
Unless you make the alterations copyright anyone can use them.
Omg.
Habbo actually used your alt. lol!
You should feel happy :) But they cant even make there own :(
I think its rather funny they use my alt, i know i can't do anything. But, it's still not a decent thing to do. I remember Becs emailing me saying sulake believe in people with integrity. If this is a display of Sulake's integrity... what can i say?
unless you have solid proof
i wouldnt contact habbo
It's their property anyway..Quote:

It's just very unlikely they actually will take them. :rolleyes:
No, I didn't produce the advent calendars. I wouldn't know where to start, I am pretty much clueless when it comes to flash.Quote:

You can't copyright a Habbo alteration to your name. We're altering Habbo's property, it isn't ours to copyright.Quote:

Its like the Piratebay (a swedish torrent site) read the legal threats and you will see its the same there, they can't be sued because america has different laws to sweden so its all legal *in a way* ;)
Quite a few people :) So, who did make them O.oQuote:
