    Default What do you think to how habbo has changed over the years?

    Right basically i was looking through my old comp the other day and came across all the old casinos.

    Does anyone remember Mcguffin "Im Tuffin" and Xenophobia this was back when thrones were like 19 hc an it was really hard to get like 5.

    Back when you could actually trade presents

    Curly-Fry his rare trade room ALWAYS on pop list and it had like 1 yukka in lool.

    And "Chivo" & "Budy" [or Buddy or something like that] their trade rooms.

    Then the next gen came with like Specie and Button. with their dino casino and throne casino.

    Then it went onto lukes casinos LR / Robbo / lRobbo / Tetanus

    Then it was like ryan [Btw] and mike [Ecko/Kaq/Crans/Mr-iou] and Nyxta

    Then it went stupid and people kept popping out of nowhere with like 400t

    Now its completely changed new everything new layout new clothes features dances badges games etc.

    It was so much harder getting rich back then and now you pop up with like 10 hc you can easily make 5t+ in a week.


    I prefered it back then imho what you all think? :rolleyes:

    I miss the old client and the old console. Two things that were absolutely fine the way they were; though I'm sure they'll say it's vital for progress but I'm not convinced. I miss scripting and controversial hotel managers (Jibbi and Callie). I miss a lot.

    Basically Habbo's target market has gotten much younger. When it began it was aimed at (older) teenagers but now it's probably aimed at kids from like 8 upwards. That in itself suggests it's not going to be much fun for older people any more. The way it's gone all commercial is really unattractive as well.

    I really think I'd still be interested if it remained the same as it was around 2003. My latest memories of Habbo before I left are of kids who clearly didn't have a clue about it rather than years ago when it sort of felt like you knew everybody and everybody knew everything about Habbo. It was also much more of a challenge to get furni and even build rooms. Now there's no creativity involved in making a room because they've pretty much made furni for everything. The Habbo "style" has gone out the window as well because everything just looks like it's off The Sims and even the Habbo characters don't have the same unique look they once had.

    tl;dr - I liked Habbo Hotel, I don't like Habbo.

    It was Budy, i remember trashing him, not once, not twice but three times.. All on the same account (he never removed my rights?) lol!

    And what about Frootbooter or whatever he was called?
    I also remember being able to trade presents, they stopped because of the scamming. I also remember the scripted photos where you clicked on one and it said "you have been banned for: BEING A ******!" or whatever custom reason you wanted! Or when you clicked on one it made the custom furni appear. Wow, the old days!

    I don't like how habbo has changed, i miss the simplistic days, but there is no going back really.

    Seeing Habbo has now lowered the amount of credits you get for your money all they seem to care about is making money now

    I think habbo now has a bigger appeal to smaller kids. Personally i don't enjoy habbo, I have quit so many times, but always came back because of djing. If i wasn't a DJ im sure i wouldn't be playing habbo..

    But, I don't like the new changes in habbo, it is really starting to get kids , i remember when habbo was all like 13-15 year olds, good times . anyways thats my opinion, Also more Edating, and pervs coming on, ;S asking for peoples msn + cams , its a scary world what people are like now.
