Am I too old?

[Frewbs]

Bit of a random one, I've just logged into Habbo for the first time in what must be about 5 years. I'm guessing the UK and USA hotels have merged now, but I used to play UK and at various times was called Frewbs and Tether but most of the time I used Wig, I even owned a casino at one point which at the time was one of the richest. Long story short, that account got banned and has since been deleted, can't remember what happened.

I'm now 20 years old, a second year university student (which is going amazingly), with a brilliant social life. But I wouldn't mind having something to do to pass the time when I'm stuck in the flat on my own bored. I quit WoW, after a few years of playing, a couple of months ago and don't fancy that again, and I have my Xbox but it just seems a bit samey. Is there a mature user group to be found anywhere on Habbo these days just to chat with and make friends? Or is it full of 13 - 16 year olds that are desperate for furni? Not that there's anything wrong with that... I've just been there and done it!

I'm currently using Jak, feel free to add me or something.

Habbo's changed so much, and not for the better. Its aimed at younger children now, with the smaller age demographic being more lucrative than if they target the older and more occasional player.

So I don't think you'd want to get back into Habbo, nor is there that many 'mature player groups'. I've packed it in personally for similar reasons.

I see nothing wrong with playing Habbo when you're a little bit older. Lots of people who started playing in 03-06 are still around and they're quite old now. I know what you mean though, Habbo doesn't exactly make you feel young especially when there are a lot of younger people that play it now.

I like this thread

I'm 19, but I know a lot of people in and around Habbox who are definitely older, and most of them are at Uni and things like that,

I think Habbo is a really nice tool to have in places like that, it just gives you the chance to meet and talk to people you're not really going to meet anywhere else. It's always nice to feel part of a community I guess too, and Habbox can do that I think...

Obviously there is the younger generation still, but there are a lot of rooms that cater to the older, like 18+ rooms and such, it's just looking in the right places, and sometimes you might even surprise yourself, the younger one's aren't always that bad... haha

Your probably not to old, but you are getting there

[Frewbs]

Thanks Zeptis

Thanks for the replies. I got the feeling that it seemed to be aimed at younger people now, not that I can complain, after all it's a business and as you said they are more lucrative. I guess I'll just hang around these forums a bit, there seems to be a decent community and that's always nice!

HabboxForum is the place to be

You can always get involved with all the Habbox events and go and visit the HxHD. We've got quite a varied community, and rather a lot of older members.

HxHD... that brings back memories. I'll give it a shot. I used to be a Hobba on Habbo USA when it first came out but it got revoked because I silenced everyone in a room for lols. Just randomly remembered that.

I don't have any furni left, as I said Wig got banned, along with all it's furni, about 5 years ago. I'm guessing it got deleted because there is now somebody else called Wig and the account wasn't made very long ago!
