    Default Buying reputation

    I know it probz makes you allot of money but I do not think that people should be able to buy reputation. It spoils the whole idea of it, people with high reputation should be people that people respect not people that have more money than others have and can afford to buy reputation.

    What are your views?

    Yeah i see your point, but it's a money maker isant it, so it will bring in quite a bit. Though i do agree with properly earning it.

    i agree and it shows how respected someone is so you can judge how seriously to take their posts. take jay-2k6 or whatever his name was. if he because vip and bought lots of reputation he would still be posting spam alterations but he would be respected because of his rep power

    I dislike the idea of buying rep. Yes, it is each person's choice, and it's a major moneymaker for habbox, but it defeats the purpose of earning rep when you just spend money buying it. Plus it just makes people annoyed - like take a look at the one thread on the Runescape trades forum. This one guy is trying to buy like 30,000 rep, and all he's getting is a bunch of heated posts on his thread. How pointless...

    I've pretty much quit Habbo & Habbox, but I still stop by every once in a while. If you knew me, send me a message saying hi, and I promise I'll get back to you! Miss all you wonderful people who saved me from boredom all those years.

    Reputation should be earnt not bought. But then again, Habbox and it's sister sites are very expensive to run, so Habbox will try and make as much money as possible.

    Yeah I understand that Habbox need all the money they can get to pay for all their sites. I’m just suggesting that may be the VIP Managers can may be come up with a different way to make money other than spoiling the reputation system.
