We're still a fansite and still have have a policy/rules to follow.

Why though? there isn't official fansites anymore is there? isn't that the only reason why we said how high when they asked us to jump?

Well if that was the case we wouldn't have threads or articles that are saying Habbo is bad, Staff are crap and so on. VIP is an issue that occurred a long time ago and we contacted them within the past 3-5 months about the issue and we still got told we couldn't do it.

Technically it's been that long I do wonder if there is even a point to still question it and just keep the Donator and VIP system as it is. As that way people still would want VIP for those tiny additional features. Unless we can get the permission to be able to do it and then think about new features? But there isn't a huge lot we can give usergroups to be fair

selling vip again would remove the attraction of it if you ask me, everyone will buy it and the features won't be exclusive. also what else will be given as prizes? not everyone plays habbo and won't want credits.

To be fair the whole dislciamer hasn't really changed that much as it still mentions the key parts:

If habbox isn't even approved by sulake why are they dishing out rules? They're telling us habbox isn't approved by sulake yet they're giving us rules, so they have either 1) Lied in the statement above or 2) Don't actually give a crap.


Doesn't make sense.

If we didn't accept the policy we would have a harder time on Habbo itself. If you remember being banned for advertising Habbox and then we wasn't on the list. It would take longer to get unbanned most likely.

I understand now. They give us rules for something they don't APPROVE of and we say alright. I understand were you're coming from but why the hell are they handing out rules if they don't approve of the fansite? If it doesn't make sense don't just nod ask in a response.

It's to cover their backs to be honest. Not about hating fansites full on. Habbox doesn't have anything to worry about.
