You would have thought a company like habbo, who are doing a so called appeal, could promise to give a certain amount per pound gained from the sale of credits for Haiti. That may encourage people to buy, and also not make them look so fake about how they give two *****.
They're a profitable business. They have helped out by asking people to help. Just by them doing that will probably raise hundreds, if not thousands. Sure they could've just donated it but when they're closing down hotels they're making little or no profit on and going through staff redundancies it's hardly top of their priorities. Would be ironic if they gave money to help when they're making staff redundant too.
I think its a piss take to ask people to give money, when they clearly have no plans to give a penny.Quote:

Meh we get a free gift.
I'm sure that'll warm the hearts of those suffering in Haiti.Quote:

If they gave let's say £5,000 this second - they would have thousands and thousands left.Quote:
