Habbo Fansites: Out with the old, in with the new?

[Brett.]

All I know is HabboRemix shouldn't be official (DON'T blast me, just my oppinion). I agree with whoever said that out with the fansites that have sold to new owners or are being sold. And if you're on maintenance every day, it doesn't really count as a fansite...

And I don't think this is a place for people to advertise their fansites, by the way!

Wasn't there a rule that if your site is down for more than 2 weeks or not editted within 2 weeks, it is removed? And I am sure if you sell an Official Fansite to someone else and change ownership, it is taken off the Official List...

Habbo are slacking, again.

Opinions are appreciated, if they came with reasons. Else, its just pointless? :S

All I am doing is running a fan site with a team of staff who works pretty damn hard, we almost have 8,000 users who love the site and we have one hell of a great time! We are relaxed, and we have NEVER broken any rules, not even the fansite way. We have however gone public and expressed opinions after 5 months of being treated poorly by Sulake. Now explain to me why we should keep smiling and keep zipped about how they are treating us?

We have not broken any rules and the only reasons we are being removed is due to reports I made about Sulake staff and someone not appreciating it. I had a right to report them as they sent me abusive emails which I don't appreciate and now look whats happening.

I hope you have a reason to share with us why a fansite which has had months of work go into it, is constantly updated, most people love it.. compared to so many other official fansites currently in the list which are never updated or have simply been sold to earn money. Habbo is meant to be fun, not political.

True..

As i said in other threads Sulake = $
Fansites are just another way to give them money

Habbo Remix is one hell of a place..

I would pick Remix anyday over ANY fansite.

So why pick ThinkHabbo? Its just a radio with a stuck up owner?

Who HAS proven he is.. even paying people to hack others sites..

How pathetic we are here to have a good time

Not being cruel or down hearted, but you are starting to whine and pretty much are asking for a sympathy vote on something you really don't need "/ Sure you never broke any rules, which I can agree, is incredibly strange that they never even emailed you or gave a valid explaination.

But then again, you've not been closed down, you are still pretty popular and you're site is interesting and good. So why keep moaning about it? You don't need Official Status... It is just a badge given to sites who make giveaways during Fansite Voting so they can become official or to people who win loads of competitions and happen to have a site so Habbo Hotel will blindly make it official.

Live and let live, a popular saying. Just get on with your life. Ignore the money making fat cats known as Sulake. They don't need you, and you don't need them. And moaning about it openly won't get you anywhere. It is probably one reason they have not emailed back with an excuse, because they are thinking they're going to let a whining brat have their way. Although I wouldn't call you a whining brat because you have a valid reason to moan about it, they shunted you off the Official List and were rude. But that is probably their strange, untrue opinion on you.

I just find your arrogance appauling. You are basically saying any other sites with lots of hard work put into them are crap.

As you said. Habbo is meant for fun, not political. So why argue? Slightly contradicting yourself it appears... Have fun, stop arguing. Take your own advice.

I agree with most of that, but the thing is, I am not after anything. I am not after sympathy, I am just expressing my views as you do on a discussion board. We don't expect to be officials I have said in a previous post in this thread.. The rest of your post yes I agree, and yeah I am gonna move on from it.. its just I felt the need that seeing as sulake are playing games with me, it'd be nice to give them a bit of bad publicity.

One thing though, I didn't write that post previously meaning to be arragont, I was far from it. This topic is about old sites which have been sold or are never updated, I commented in my last thread that HabboRemix shouldn't be seen worse than fansites which have zero effort put into them. I might not have made this clear so it may have been a misunderstanding.

Anyway, peace out. Oh and very wise words too.

After about a month of trying to get in contact with Sulake, I would just nod and put it nearly behind me. Obviously some questions. But Sulake never took away that hard work did they? No. So why act as if they did?

True. But would you say something on a discussion board?

[GommeInc]

It depends. If they got in contact with me, no. If they didn't contact me within a few months, possibly. I wouldn't post it on another Discussion Board. I would keep it on the site that has the problem. Its the sites problem, not another boards.
