Ok I have just read the news article on the fansite way...
BUT it says fansite must NOT charge users for extra access to things...
Does this mean HxF is breaking rules for selling VIP?
Also don't clubhabbo have 'clubhabbo homes'?
If so they are breaking rules too..

No because Habbox.com is the official Fansite not Habboxforum... I'm no expert but i don't think the forum counts as part of the officialness
I’ll be a story in your head, but that’s okay, because we’re all stories in the end. Just make it a good one, eh? Because it was, you know. It was the best. A daft old man who stole a magic box and ran away. Did I ever tell you that I stole it? Well, I borrowed it. I always meant to take it back. Oh, that box, Amy, you’ll dream about that box. It’ll never leave you. Big and little at the same time. Brand-new and ancient and the bluest blue ever. And the times we had, eh? Would had…Never had. In your dreams, they’ll still be there. The Doctor and Amy Pond and the days that never came.

I'm going to find out more information about this now.

I heard the voice again. "So, what are you up to?"
Again I answered, "Just having a quick ****... How about yourself?"
Then I heard him say "Sorry, mate, I'll have to call you back. I've got some **** in the cubicle next to me answering everything I say."

Hmm, apparently this does also include the forum.
-
It's pathetic in my opinion. How do they expect Habbox to be able to maintain the sites without the VIP fees? :S
-
Hasn't that been there for ages though lol, or has it just been recently added to there do and don'ts lol

If HxF was www.habbox.com/forum/index.php, it would be included and would not be accepted, but since HabboxForum is not the official site and is a separate domain it doesn't count towards the Fansite Way.
surely?Last edited by Hiro; 30-06-2008 at 03:20 PM.
