Is anyone a bit surprised Habbo have not done any event or memorial type thing to celebrate the 70th anniversary of D-Day?
I'm not going to lie I am a bit angry of it, considered they've done an even to celebrate the Queens 70th Aus Birthday, but not one to memorial D-Day when they've done this for other types of memorials for different countries on different hotels.
it seems they piled too many resources into world burger day

oh and world turtle day must have been very draining!
Yeah,
I mean I don't even care about badges or anything
but an acknowledgement would of been nice of the memorial.
To be fair, the majority of people that play Habbo won't have had grandparents that were alive during the war, let alone serving. And seems a bit tacky, what would you do? "Run through Omahabbo Beach and avoid the explosions to win a badge!!!"
They had one for memorial day in the US? They can run events without them being tackyQuote:

I don't know if this is offensive but I have no idea what D Day is.

I think it maybe because Habbo is a Finish organisation and D-Day is mainly centered around UK and French users of the hotel therefore, Habbo may not of recognized the events over the last few days as it is a very English / French "tradition" to remember D-Day.
Also, Habbo maybe creating and designing new features for the hotel as in other events that have happened throughout the years and are planning for them.
So we should soon stop remembering ww2 cause we don't have grandparents who fought?!Quote:

Anyways I asked Waltz and she said
" no sorry, it kind of snuck up on us ".
Oh well.
I won't deny either I myself didn't remember D-Day was 70 years until a few days before the event!
But I <3 the red arrows (Y) they're always good to watch as well as the other events that happen down the seafront at this time.Quote:

Wait so you're saying because you didn't know it, they shouldn't be remembering it? Considering it was thousands of men that risked their lives saving the front on the UK yet you think it has now, recognition because you didn't know about it, stupid.Quote:

Bye. Why should Habbo remember them? This is a game not bloody Queen's Court.Quote:

Talk about being rude and disrespectful..Quote:
