Habbo advertising AOL Messenger

[Pitch]

we had that when callie was around


In the past few months there has been alot of changed to sulake's chatrooms and there are far to many which are bad

I would like to start of with the versions
We have a version nearly once a month and it is far out of hand.
V13 v14 v15 released in one year (counting from Habbo finland)
and it is far to confusing whats what.

--------Were 13 not 2---------

Why the hell cant you be honest guys?
Callie's departure and with the hc dances getting ****** up
Why could of you just said ''Callie has been fired for certain reasons we will not discuss'' we would be fine for that
Hc dances
Few weeks ago HC Dances had a cockup getting all out of order (i.e pongo mongo is the rollie)
Why could of you just said ''we have a error in our HC Dance system please deal wiv it'' and im sure we would not the excuse you said last time


---------------Callies departure Boring hotel manger--------------

This time last year we will only have chris

I find him Dull He does nothing. Pixel maze Helkat done most of it anyway

Since callies depature Now read this bit

WHEN CALLIE WAS AROUND WE HAD 16,000 VISTORS
AT THE MINUTE WE HAVE ONLY 4,000-6,000 VISTORS
and thats during peak time


------------Money Money Money more money for meee-----------------

When habbo opened it wasnt about money
it was about fun meeting new people
All you do is think about money now. who cares? We have our own lives. You get FAR to much as it is.


----------------------Aol and Advertising-------------------------

*** you tell us not to do tell our emails
your breaking your own rules sulake your advertising AOL Messenger
Which is rather pathetic realy. Think

-------------------Better campaigns please----------------------

Can we have a Gay pride week like CALLIE surgested but your homophobic anyway Im sure we have loads to volunteer (Me F!re Pype enternalmasque etc etc)

Cant we have like minute silence or at least a ''one minute cut off'' about 9/11 to remember the people who died least pay some respects for them

The original habbo was a company; companies oddly enough are there to make money, or make something (changes). Clearly, by selling nothing for something, all they originally planned for was to make money. How would a better campaign be gay pride week? Campaigns arent about what makes you happy, its whats most enthralling to the most people, and gay pride might be fun for you, and 7 other people, but what about the rest? What about people whos dad left their mum to be gay, would they take part? Habbo "campaigns" are supposed to be accessible to everyone, and not just tailored so that only certain people can take part and "have a blast"

they aren't breaking their own rules on the giving out IM addys. Where does it say to give out addys? Its just advertising so people download AIM.


Also habbo sucks ftw.

yes but imagine this scenario...


boy meets girl in a room:

boy: hi
girl: hey!
boy: u seen dat aol add on the homepage?
girl: yeah, i downloaded it
boy: cool! me too
girl: whats ur addy?

and thats how by advertising AOL messenger, they are provoking people into breaking the habbo way

[dbgtz]

I think whats happening is people leave, but no one starts. It could also be lost_witness is not as good as callie, or sulake is moving things too quickly and there is nothing special anymore, I liked v9 because you got the big rooms .
Anyway they are dumb for having that ad.

I know it's all very well and good pointing fingers, however, I am sure that all the staff are well aware of your concerns AND about the dwindling numbers, but im sure they have a good reason for not sorting it faster? I mean, they're paid to do it, so something must be stopping them. To be honest, i think they're still feeling the backlash of when that guy 'groomed' 2 girls thru habbo [was all explained in that telegraph article a while back], and the increased security and amount of scams will be getting on top of them.
I think though, the main thing Habbo need to do is get word out. The original members of Habbo spread it by word of mouth. Now they are gone, and the whole idea of a chatroom is very much taboo nowadays, and so i think you'll find most ppl play Habbo secretly without telling friends, as they will probably see it as a geeky chatroom style idea. This needs to be changed, and the best way is through TV adverts and posters/billboards. Also, more acessible reviews need to be written about it, so I would suggest to staff to subtly hint to major papers about this phenomenon and encourage them to write about it, and also they need to do more promotions. It's all well and good having a black laser gate given out free when you buy £10 Ukash, however, only ppl hu use habbo know about that. If it was advertised in the store where u can buy it, people may either be more inclined to buy it, OR more inclined to even start playing as they may wonder what Habbo is.
However, they are starting to make the right moves i feel with having the AdviceBerg, Frank infobus, and Tech Experts who give advice on general computer safety.
Yet, i do still feel that something is lacking. That original feeling we got when we all first started playing has disappeared, and it needs to come back. I must congratulate staff on their excellent games and quests [Habbo Talent, Pixel Maze, Japan Quest, Habboween etc] however i do feel that they need to address more wordly issues through quests and the like. The idea of a Gay Pride week where they can give more information on homosexuality and dispell common myths that induce the onset of homophobia would be a huge success i think. References to 9/11 on the day with perhaps a 1 minute silence on the hotel, or at least an alert saying "Dont forget to take some time to remember the victims of 9/11" or the July bombings. There are so many real life things going on all the time that i feel need to be addressed in something as influential as Habbo.
Sorry i took up so much room, but I think this is a topic that needs serious consideration by staff and habbo's alike. I'm sure some people find these ideas ridiculous, others clever, but we all need to give and take a little here and there to increase the popularity of this game

Tbh, i find it quite pathetic that we can't give out emails, but they advertise AOL Messenger..

I couldnt agree more to that. Thing is though sulake AND habbo staff dont care about any of us anymore, to them we are £10 notes with legs. Habbo dont care who we are, where were from, weather or not we have been hacked or scammed because they think oh well if you leave someone else will join, but they have done this for too long and now more people are going than coming. I mean look at the constant desperate attempts to try and get us to tell our friends about habbo, there even adding buttons everywhere 'tell your friend' or 'free paper with your habbo on to show your friends'. Habbo UK is going downhill fast and unless they start doing something about it the hotel might even end up closed or something. Habbo UK used to be 1 of the most popular in the world and now we get the same amount of visitors as some of the hotels which are new. Sulake might be getting bigger all the time but our UK hotel is getting smaller. I think its about time habbo started listening to what we have to say rather than what they think we have to say.

Nice find. I hope Habbo UK gets back to its 15 000, maybe advertising on things like WLM might help.
