ALL RADIO FANSITES ARE BEING TOLD TO PAY A £200 LISCENCE OR HAVE THEIR RADIO GOT RID OF.
BIT OF A JOKE.
Where is the proof ?
Where've you heard this please? :]

ClubHabbo has gone down, and theirs the article from HFFM.
Its a worldwide thing.
LMAO Habbox has to do this as well i belive.
uh oh spaghetti oh >;0
No more ClubHabbo. I will enjoy my day now.
I've been reading about this on CH. It's pretty stupid that fansites had to remove the VIP features and then this happens. It means that most sites are going to struggle because they lack the money to pay for it whereas if they had VIP they probably could.
I belive nvrspk4, Sierk and ,Jess, have been informed i think. :S
It's really stupid.. I'm sure CH will get the £200 thiough, they have a big userbase. Habbo really need to remember that the people running the sites do it for fun and are young and unlikely to be able to afford a quarter of that.
Absoloutely terrible.
A repeat, absoloutely terrible.
They expect Habbo Fansites to survive under nothing :S. And yeah, what Jess said, word for word.
I don't understand this, who is informing all these fansites about this?
What's the 'PPL'?
Proof of the letter, posted on chf.

Also, did Sulake make this rule?
This is ******* stupid lmao. I don't think they realise that people play just for fansites, seriously.
All ClubHabbo need to put on their homepage is.
Give us £200 or the radio will be deleted.
And one of their bum chums will give them £300 to be generous.
I was just about to say this. I left habbo because it was boring, but now that I'm making a fansite I'm going back on it.Quote:

If you don't pay this will occur:
I am arresting you for not paying your habbo fansite fee. You do not have to say anything but it may harm your defence if you fail to mentioned when questioned something you may later rely on in x---BABEH---x's habbo court. Anything you do say may be given to LOST_WITNESS

But seriously, good luck finding the money. IT'S ALL GOING DOWN AT HABBO HOTEL!
According to a source.. clubhabbo are getting rid of theirs.Quote:

Anyway, that letter was confusing, it seemed like it was coming from an actual habbo person. then it seemed like it was a PPL person. And then it was apparently from a PPL person. Made no sense
yeah crap letter cant you just ignore it and wait for them to tell you it's a necessity
LOL joker. +RepQuote:

Is this anything to do with the ruling which got brought in ages ago, which meant people would have to pay royalty fees to broadcast online radio? :S
Thank god, these annoying radio sites with annoying DJ's on may be closing. It bemuses me why so many opt to listen to these radio's, when there are far better stations out there. It'll also stop all them advertisers in the room saying "Tune in" with their flood tool.
Habbox should put
"Help us to help you"
"We need urgent donations to keep the habbox radio. Without the radio there is a possibility the whole site will shut down, then there'd be no rare values"
Then they'd probably get £200 in 2 days? As they get thousands(?) of hits and 70% are probs for rare valued.
Why the sudden need to pay radio license?
I doubt any fansite will pay, if they do it'll be major ones like clubhabbo/hxl.
^ Interact; you've always needed to pay for a license but every habbo fansite just does it illegaly playing illegal music; but habbo have been contacted probably due to the official fansites.
I have a Question: Why has ClubHabbo put a maintainece page up on there site it's only the Radio not the bloody who site though isn't it ?
Nightmare
I think the only ones who even have a chance of paying are Habbox and CH^ lol :P
This is really bad but it sounds like Habbo didn't do it, so why are people blaming them?
What a complete and utter pile of crap!!
What are they playing at? Obviously habbo have been hit by the credit crunch and will do anything for a bit of dosh.
Disgraceful.
ClubHabbo are getting rid of their radio. They have already taken away the site discussion lounge.
Apparently, their not gonna pay, so they're probably making changes.Quote:
