Ads by Google on Habbox.

I think also, if 8freak8 or sierk see any ads they dont think are appropriate, they block them off using the competitive ad filter.

O well, i doubt they look here.

Sierk uses his "sierk1" account to read all threads in the main of this forum. 8freak8 also glances over them, so yes they do .

We can ban ads for certain url's so maybe we should ban ebay. But I've clicked on ads before that said hack or cheat and then they were actually innocent sites.

Your right, I noticed one the other day which said 'Habbo Hotel Cheats' and I thought, 'Ouch, that could ruin Habbox's Official hopes ' +rep for that comment.

Off-topic: Dominatrix, if you hate Habbox, why do you pay to be a VIP, thus keeping it running by giving donations. Or were you being sarcastic?

Habbox will never be official.

Why do you say that? It could become official, I don't see why not

Yeap, precisely :p.

And Habbox may become official sometime, who knows .

Habbox was removed from the official fansite list for posting unreleased furniture yet (Basically posted all the V7 rares before they came out)

They'll never be on it again...

There has been a banner on Habbox.com for a while now containing ads by Google. However, I have noticed some funny content on this space such as an advert for "Free Furni" and also furni for sale on ebay -- both of which are against The Habbo Way.

I am very concerned about this because if Sulake saw this, couldn't they have Habbox shut down or w/e? It does say on the Habbo Hotel website that fansites should not promote possible scams such as free furni!! :p

If I am completely wrong... sorry, but I'm just giving the staff a heads-up and also wondering if anyone has any comments.

I'll email Sulake asking their opinion on the ads.

Thanks

Good idea, it's best to be on the safe side.
