Older members... we need your pearls of wisdom

http://thefamily.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/old.jpg

Indeed we do.

I've been adding some older stuff from Habbo and Habbox (but mainly Habbo) to the Habbox Wiki and I was wondering if any older members knew of any events, controversies or even well known people who should be inducted on the Wiki but whom newer members wouldn't remember. If it's an event or a person, they have to be of considerable note.... like for example I added pages the other week for the likes of Evolution, Nisus, Ch3rryBab3, Ecko and a few others - as well as an Aids in the Pool page. All parts of Habbo history that will be lost once we older folk are gone and there's less and less of us all the time.

I realise a lot don't want to type up huge paragraphs, and can't access the Wiki anyway unless you have a cleared account... so if there's anything or anyone of considerable note you think is missing from the dead and buried past then just post below and i'll add it in time if I can remember something/if you can provide enough information on it. I don't want scientific proof btw, just y'know a short summary. Try and warm your brain up and think back to the old days of Habbo and bits and pieces might come to you.

Cheers.

The Habbo USA hacking by Finch-Himself in 2007,

Be nice to have a write up and list of all the old trade rooms with the owners plus screenshots if they can be found

Like old Sukia rooms
Lost Trade (Lost-Witness)
Trade City (Paolo)
Etc.

I'll give you a hand looking for some of the older rooms and screenshots if you want

The Jibbi lottery scandal, although that's even before my time.

Habbox controversies I was thinking was the change of rep points system, that was pretty big for it's time.

It would be nice to see your trade rooms Dan, if I remember you was one of the first popular v9 trade rooms?

I know nothing about Habbo or its past.

Joking aside this is what the Wiki would be getting if Content didn't piss me off.

Besides I've never heard of Aids in the Pool but I have heard of "Pool's Closed" and that's already on the wiki because I put it there lol.

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/pools-closed

Isn't it the same thing? Pools closed because of aids?

Evolution owned the fansite habbos.net which was the first and only fansite to get official on every English speaking hotels.
ch3rrybab3's nudes went viral

Random things off the top of my head are the Habbo Council, the end of the Hobba program, that time a kid in the Netherlands got arrested after stealing a ton of furni. I remember the name Cheezy2 as well but don't know why.

Big Habbox events, Habbox losing official status, the help desk split (I forget what the new one was, I want to say it was PH or something?), when that copyright group tried to shut down all Habbo radios over royalties, the list goes on.

If you have specific areas that you're looking for more in let me know...I kind of just threw out what I could remember generally

I remember those blockades; that's hilarious. The screenshots have me missing habbo UK all over again.

Thanks for sharing.

lmaoo I remember that radio thing. did we end up getting a license in the end or just go nahhhh

Didn't Evolution work for Habbox as a moderator at some point? I remember putting something about him having sex with Callie in my signature and he threatened to have me banned from the forum.

So here's some other stuff I remember:

- HxTV!!! I think other than the manager (HotelUsers brother John) towards the end I think I was the only person left at Habbox who had any enthusiasm left for HxTV when it started its demise... I produced two series of Doctor Who and one series called 'The Fansite' (it was supposed to be a Habbox version of 'The Office'). Then when it was obvious the department was going to be cut soon I jumped ship!! (I like to think after years of quality programming (Habboenders etc) my crappy shows single handedly bought the department to its end!)

- The great 'class divide' when HC Only Public rooms were introduced. HC members would also start their own 'HC Only Parties' kicking out anyone not bearing their Habbo Club badge!!!!
- When you could take photos and stick them on your wall! - I had a whole wall full of 'Photos' but when I logged on recently just to see what was new I noticed they don't work any more!
- I don't know how to type this but the tune that always used to play when you had a new message or when you logged in and had messages waiting 'dum di duuuum' haha (I don't know if that tune still happens?)
- The Hallway protests...
- After Callie got Sacked/Left she joined another game.....Club Tropico or something? I don't think it ever took off though!
- I have a vague memory of getting really angry when I was HxHD manager because a rival fan site used to get their radio listeners to dress as bunnies and 'raid' HxHD spamming the room to tune in.... I think it was ThinkHabbo?

I'm sure there's more in my head somewhere!

Not sure if it is something to mention but back in 2004 there was a room called "Hotel Exit". It was an empty, unaltered room. After a few seconds of entering, a Habbo comes in and says something along the lines of "Would you like to see the exit?" and if you answered yes (or stay a few seconds longer - we couldn't work out how it worked as it was completely random sometimes) you would be disconnected and the password to your account would be changed.

It was removed in Version 5 I think when they bothered to fix some of the bugs and issues in the game.

There was the Callie and Impetuous scandal where both of them were the same person - though why Habbo itself didn't notice this I am unsure - or Callie removed all of her furniture which again breaks so many policies.

Habbos.co.uk was and always will be the best Habbo Fansite as far as website design, competitions and events go. Haven't been on Habbox Wiki in a long long time but it might be worth mentioning it as it was very good.

All I can think of off the top of my head which date back a bit too far for some to care :P

Knew it was Pool's closed!

There was a lot of scripting and stuff like that - coloured stikis, teles in door, furni in black, posters in black, rooms in search that said they were full but had no one in them etc etc

The best was the old glitched photo where we could disconnect people by trading them the photo.

Got my first account banned for disconnecting a staff member :(

It's a long story which I shouldn't personally put in writing :P

Also the other site was ClubTropica, I think they sponsored a Habbox ad banner for a while.

I thought the Callimpetuous thing ended up being a hoax?


Do they do still do scam rooms? When you played in casinos etc. you'd look up the person's name and check to see if they had rooms made for them as "TRUSTED" or "SCAMMER". It was Habbo's very primitive version of eBay-style community self-policing.

Good day.

I've got a cleared Wiki account so I'll make some additions/updates when I've got a spare afternoon.

Stuff I know lots about -

People:
- Evolution: habbos.ca/net. Meet the manager competition. Manager for a day comp. UK
- Budy: old trade room owner, popular pre-sukia. Winner of Mr Habbo UK competition 2004.
- Sukia: trade room history, user personal history (known since 2002 on other accounts).

Hobba/X/Guide
- Hobba: (know many former Hobbas although I wasnt one myself. Have original super handbook)
- eXpert programme: (was a head eXpert, have lots of handbooks/screenshots/records)
- Guide programme: (was head guide)

Events:
Celeb visits including:
- Gorillaz (first ever)
- Many more

Regular rooms:
- Newsbox (wenders)
- Newsbox (Karn)
- Newsbox (Brian)
- Gothic House
- Theatredrome
- Welcome lounge

Random stuff:
- The path is grey.
- OLD furniture values, eg when Easter Ducks were the most expensive item on the hotel.
- Lots and lots and lots of screenshots. Literally thousands taken over the last 14 years.

No way :P?!

Mind explaining this to me, a newbie? I assume they were accidental release or some prize or something?

There was that Habbo council as well wasn't there

Then the likes of L1C mazes, aloe.vera casino, vintus trade room, helkat had some army didn't she?

Aloe.Vera is still active on Habbo. I spotted her a few days ago and we've had a couple of interesting conversations about her casino days.

I remember quite a few names that were casino owners:

Rae-Girl, ANNlE / Anneful, Affy / EU, BT, Btw, Ecko, Vodor, Ch3rrybab3, lLippy, Nyxta, BLuweesH, chivo, budy.

Anyone remember when Vodor owned literally all of the gold amber lamps on the hotel and around 2005 he was the richest Habbo worth around 1000t?

Seeing names in this thread that I haven't seen in 10 years is pretty freaky...

Nisus was another. I remember when he was hacked and the account was shared around before it was eventually banned

Mystique! was on Habbo Council and was also the owner of Habbo.Help which was one of the other big help desks back then.

Moonglowgirl definitely deserves a page if she doesn't have one already, her Christmas plays and poetry slams were truly great and I know that lost_witness attended the Christmas carol play every year! Big up the tiny space players! She received the comedy/tragedy mask badge (it has a name but I've forgotten ) despite not winning it officially as a birthday gift, her garden room was a staff pick for many months, and when she finally left habbo it's rumoured that she went on to work as player support for secondlife as she developed her newest play "mambo motel".

Hachette was a notorious scammer and managed to get to around 200-400t or more which in 05/06 made him one of if not the richest player/s. He still logs in on occasion on his account darkbow# and as far as I'm aware now plays runescape.

There definitely need to be more hall of fame pages for habbos like these that have faded into obscurity to keep their memory alive. Junius and ekyle also spring to mind for having the largest collections of typos and dinos respectively.

No way, I heard about this years ago because Nisus just seemed to have come out of no where with 2000t worth of furniture which rapidly grew to about 5000t worth of furniture at the time and then he just seemed to disappear. I could've sworn it was around 2009/2010.

lol someone posted woodrally

Hello -:Undertaker:-,

A while ago I was collecting old data of my own personal Habbo history and I know of others who've done the same. I find people's stories of their time on Habbo a lot more interesting than the same old repeated lines that are out there in the open already.

I'd like to meet up with you on Habbo for a long chat at some point to see if it's worthwhile collaborating. I could open up a lot of doors for you :)

I'm sending you a PM.

Lol I had quite a few accounts on ClubTropica. I really thought that it would take off but I got tired of their stupid excuses of why they weren't releasing their client. As a matter of fact did they ever release a client of any sort?

You should zip them all up and upload them somewhere so people can take a look! That's one thing I never did was collect screenshots :(

I always thought Ecko and his buddy forgot his name hacked Nisus. I remember being in the room and they were like 'we got him'.... I might be completely wrong but yeah. Then I think Ecko got owned by Disembodied who then built the first Dino Pyramid back when Dinos were like 4T each?

Not sure on the details - I wasn't a part of the 'inner circle' of the Habbo elite back then :P

pabble,pebble,waddle etc. use to be a casino owner. had a group fan page and was hacked. The Naked habbo glitch still cracked me up and old naked habbo pic going for 1hc lol.. habbox use to hold auctions where a duck got auctioned off for a club sofa...
