They can celebrate anyway they wish but its pointless to put up a skin for the other holidays when most everyone is gonna use the xmas skin
I assume this is because Christmas and Halloween etc, are far more publicised than the other religious events you have specified above.
I wouldnt say its racist, most muslims I know celebrate christmas, and Habbox celebrate the popular times of year, that everyone knows of.
So, when people in other forums put up diwali skins then they're racist..?
Yes but if would be nice, If HxF could do that :s I dont see why other religious events should be left out :s
But why should other events be left out :s
If its popular or not i believe hxf should celebrate it :s
so should habbox make a skin for everyday of the week.
infact, i have just created my own religion called 'mesonilvu' and we celebrate the unpopular event 'mitsubtreyi' every year on the 5th of August - a hxf skin for that please.
we have to draw the line somewhere.
Im saying HxF should put up skins for each event such as diwali and xmas :s
Are you thick :s You can not just create your own religion, I am saying i think its a bit rude HxF only puts up a xmas skin and leaves other events out ;l
Thank you!
why are you complaining about habbox not making skins for these events? i dont see you complaining about other sites who dont do it? like habbo & runescape ect..
yeah, habbo.co.uk only celebrate xmas, easter, halloween ect, go complain to them..
wait.. while your at it, complain to over half the sites on the internet for not making different skins for jewish events.
Basically, Habbox (as a Habbo fansite) will do things that Habbo do.
So when Christmas is celebrated on Habbo, Habbox will change the skins of the sites to Christmas.
Same with Valentines etc...
I guess Habbox don't do Diwali as Habbo don't...
Only thing I could think of...
This threads just to stir hatred for habbox :s This site is a UK site, the majority of which have a christian backround
Im sorry but think how many events there are in religions.
Probably thoasands.
You expect habbox to make about 2.7 new wall papers everyday?
No.
Its a uk based forum where the majority of people are christian or Jewish. Its all a family holiday where atheists celbrate aswell making it a national event to most religions. Therefor it is appropiete to make a christmas theme.
Wouldnt be hard to make a few more skins though, still..
Maybe because christmas is more fun than starving yourself for a day.
How do you know this?
Agreed
Do shut up, This is a serious thread, we do not stupid posts like that.
Agreed
Also someone said its hard to manage :s Thats why they have more than one admin :s If they still need help hire someone to make the skins, its not hard :s
Habbox forum is a UK fansite.
In the UK christmas is one of the major celibrated holidays, Not for just christands, but for EVERYONE, reguadless of religion. Its actualy been celibrated in the uk by other names for nearly 10 millenia.
Hence christmas as a universal english celibration gets a skin.
Diwali and most other religious festivals are not part of british tradition, hence do not get a skin, go to a fansite based in a conarty which does celibrate that as a national holiday, then you can see skins for what ever festival you like.
Have you never noticed how differnt contarys have differnt national celibrations o.0
ps. Halloween is actualy anti chirstianty, dervived from pagan ansestor worship rituals.
Now grow up as its obvious from your mass ignorance of the subject you dont care in the slightest about this in terms of religious context, and instead are just attention seeking. A good example is you called it raciest. Religion has NOTHING AT ALL to do with race, race depends on your contrary origin, your race can be britsih and your religion could be anything, your race could be chinese and your religion could be anything, etc etc tec. Discriminating against race and descrinating against religious belifes are seperate issues. Unless your actualy make a REALLY racest statment telling us that ALL people from a certain race Worship a certain religion...
Although 01101101entor, you're being completely blunt and cruel for no reason, you do have a point it's not even racism, it's blasphemy. Well, speaking hypothetically. As you said, it's a British website with British managers, and staff and whatever I'm sure there's some ethic minorities. Therefore we're basically brits, we live in Britain and we celebrate British holidays, whether or not we're Christians, the Christian influence has given Britain the Christmas traditions and aethiests, agnostics or whatever celebrate Christmas for the excuse to have a winter holiday and give out presents.
Tbh, I am not any religion, I don't have a religion, but it is important you respect others' religions and you should make skins for Diwali ect. as I invited my friend onto HxF and she is hindu.
Thats swell dude, we know we are its what makes us superiour =D
This forum is run by christian people (although I am not a christian). Habbo is also run by christian people and I believe they only celebrate the christian holidays etc as well :).
This doesnt really mean we are racist, don't try making a fuss out of everything ;).
It does, as you are not respecting others religions...
Does it really matter if the forum is Run by Christians? NO. We just want others religions to be respected.
Look im going to first suggest you look up the definition of respect, so you can avoide sounding stupid, when you misuse the word in future.
Secondly Christmas predates christiant by melienia. The celibration is part of British tradition. The forum is populated by british people primarly, hence the traditions followed are british ones.
There are plenty of forums, run by people of pretty much every contary you can imagaine, Those forums will then celibrate the celibrations traditional for those contarys.
The fact is that you wouldnt expect a jewish/muslium/hindu fansite to celebrate xmas. The whole idea of a religion is that you are religious because you believe it, so others thoughts and actions should not really bother you when it comes to your religion, as its right for you. Now correct me if im wrong here, but there are plenty of other ethnic minorities on this forum, and they are quite happy without skins for their festivals. I doubt very much people would be offended by the fact a site with around 500 active members doesnt have a skin for their religion. The simple fact is, its the internet. Other religions are respected, do you see anything on this forum that is derrogatory or hurtful towards other religions? No. If anyone is offended that a small primarily english and christian community is not providing an OPTIONAL skin to celebrate a festival, they really need to buy a small house and not leave it, as almost all of life will offend them. Also, anyone who says this reply is racism really needs get a dictionary, a brain, and perhaps an injection of common sense.
