Well it won't be as good because most the of the friends you had then will probably have moved on. It doesn't seem to have so much of a community spirit anymore where people met in the popular trade rooms and casinos such as Budy's and Blueweesh. Give a try and see what you think?Quote:

thats what i thought, i was on briefly yesterday and nobody has respect.
and all these rich people now seem to think their was nobody before them and they are the legends of habbo, and i agree i remember sin!, fr00tb00ter i think another one was, RAR3, Ict, Xenophobia. Ahh the good days.
Near enough everything has changed so it'd take some getting used to.
I probably stopped hardcore playing it around 2008 and even the changes just over the period since then were so drastic that I don't play it at all now. So if you haven't played since 05 you may as well go to Neopets or Club Penguin or something - that's how similar it will be to old times, sadly.
It's awful mate. Stay well away.
i agree its not worth coming back to.Quote:

I'm from 2008 but from what I heard it was better back den. I still love habbo. Just adjust to it and don't let them win.
Don't start using it again, your heart will be crushed because it's not what it once was.
Featurewise, though, it's improved significantly.
Didn't he move accounts to rollerblades or something? What about Budy, he had massive trade rooms, although i don't think he was too rich..Quote:

Habbo was so good in 2004, 2005 :(
It's so different now. there's none of the like groups of people we used to have, in a close community. It's all split out and terrible now. As Rosie said, everyones moved on from 04, 05 except a few, but with none of the other lot around anymore, it's crap :(
I agree with the point that is has been over-run by 12 year olds, who act so immaturly. I personally stopped 'playing' in mid 2008 after 4 years, I still visit to check out news features for news and stuff, but the community has been ruined and also the simplicity of it too, there is now everything under the sun in terms of features and I actually feel that they are overdoing it.
haha i miss those :(Quote:

It's not worth to come back and all the nice habbos have moved on :(
Yeah he moved accounts to r0llerblader or something.
An yeah I have played for 2 days and its definatley not what it was, the richest people think they paved the way for themselves and they have rights above anyone else.
Lack of a community :(
That's just like Pabble was before he was hacked. Up himself. Btw Pabble is called Special on here.Quote:

Avid player between 04-08 but then i just got bored. It really hit home when i recently logged on to a busy saturday a week ago to find 0 people on my friends list online. 0. Time changes, people seem to have grown up. I used to have 2 really good friends on habbo that i would always have a good time with but alas no more. I do miss the good times;
Thrones were 21hc's, the hotel was straightforward and simple to navigate, Jibbi was the hotel manager, there was a sense of community, everyone wanted to be a hobba, badges were extremely prestigious, the thought of habbo cars was amazing, sonicmouse was famous, we all used Budy's trade room, Nesus had the top casino, hotel competitions were structured and fun, we all wanted an original mission, Habbo Football was my favourite passtime, Ribenas "Oooo and Aaaah! campaign", the 4chan Habbo raid, the big furni hand was a legend, everytime you got a message the console would bleep, trying to force dave out of welcome desk area, first time people could stack and have big v9 rooms, the big anticipation before a new version of habbo was released on HxF, hotel staff seemed a mystery but we wanted to work there, The Gorilla's were the first band to advertise on habbo, New rares would only exist about every six months, the homepage was blue and orange with a star check in sign, you could read the newsie on the homepage while you logged on, Daisy had a massive giveaway at christmas, seem to find amazing rooms by exploring the hotel, Getting the gold HC badge meant you were awesome, you could chat to anybody you met without being insulted,
And many more, sorry for the rant but its a shame to see what was such a brilliant past time move on while i remain behind...
04-06 Habbo R.I.P
wow. I only started on '08, and even from there im seeing a decline in community, and the entertainment i get off it :(Quote:
