I don't know, as Just-one said, Maybe it's only if you say "I share this account"

[fitcovboy]

Your not allowed to account share, but what harm is it if you are a brother or sister using the same PC and IP all the time? Just because Sulake want you to have seperate accounts = 2 HC members = More furni = $$$$$ = Exploit Kids.

Anyway, no way Sulake can prove this unless you said in chat or console.. "I share this account".

Hmm ok latest reply from Becs says otherwise:


Hi John
There is no legal action to take so please don't make those threats as they're just plain silly.

As for your ban, I will speak with Redtiz and find out what the situation is and someone from the UK office will let you know the outcome. Adults sharing accounts is not an issue. However, there's no way for anyone to know who's truly an adult and who is a teen, which you would understand as an adult, of course.

Cheers,
Becs

This is weird, i often use my dads computer aswell as mine, so it would look like two different ip address's are accessing the account, maybe this is risky?!?!

Habbos ridiculous bans are getting beyond a joke, and yet people who constantly break rules never seem to get banned

good luck with getting your account back John.

i thought u were leaving -.-

and yeah habbo is just getting dumb... guys being ultra racist.... IGNORE and then ban ban ban for no reason. k, sue habbo =D i asked for a name change and got a reply saying yes but the name i wanted was taken so i replied saying another name which i had and they just ignored me, i sent another email and they sed no. i then replied saying i was already allowed just a different name and they didn't reply - so i've given up, i also provided proof of the email ¬.¬:eusa_wall

Usually means you're Scre'wed when they say "theres no way to find out if..."

Trust me, i know xP

[Boxiel]

Yes John, Best of luck to youxx

[Nixon!]

legal action with sulake most of the time ends in turmoil. ive been there and honestly it kinda looks bad for you since that is a stated FAQ that you cant share accounts but good luck with it

[Barmi]

Sorry, but legal action will get you nowhere. For starters, companies can hide behind T&Cs, EULAs, etc. in court. (And seeing as you agreed to the T&Cs when you created your Habbo, they have a fairly solid case. Of course hiding behind T&Cs isn't 100% foolproof, but in more cases than not... it is. ) Seriously, you would be wasting your time, especially with this (that people always seem to miss):

2.3 Sulake UK Ltd has no obligation to monitor the Website. However, we reserve the right to review materials posted to the Chat Room and Message Boards and to remove any materials at our sole discretion. Habbo reserves the right to terminate your access to the Chat Room and Message Boards, or the Site at any time, without notice, for any or no reason.

Terms & Conditions of use are your best friend when using Habbo...
You can be banned for any or no reason, but a system has been put in place to try and justify the ban where possible. When it comes down to it though, if you have been banned inappropriately, the best you can do is appeal the ban. If the appeal doesn't get accepted, nothing more can be done, I would think.

I'm sorry to hear you've been banned in this way, although there seem to be some pieces of the jigsaw I'm missing. Unless the person on your account said "I'm on fitcov's account! ^_^", then I don't see any proof. Unless, of course, it uses IP... but some staff log on in the offices and at work. Good luck on getting your account unbanned though.

Lol, i got banned for that on AU :[

I understand the situation here and agree with people's comments on how pathetic Sulake are, But what gets me .. If your partner was logging onto your Habbo surely you'd have the same IP unless she didn't live with you, and I usually thought sharing credit cards etc etc is for serious couples living together?

What I also don't understand is why Sulake would randomly look up your account and see you have been account sharing with other users. Just seems like there isn't something you are telling us regarding this issue.

Threatening a multi-million pound company with legal action isn't really going to get you anywhere, Infact they will probably ignore you more than going by things the right way. If you read the terms and conditions you will find out they can remove your access at any time.

However, I also agree with what James says about banning accounts for you to make new ones and purchase Habbo club etc. Business tactic.

Good luck with getting your account back
