    Hi, you obviously haven't been on the forum long enough to know all about this 'free speech' saga.

    as stated before it's in the terms and conditions which everybody signed up to, they used the terms don't complain.
    everyone agreed to the terms upon sign up so complaining only makes these people look like fools.

    I would suggest you stop jumping on the ''we want free speech'' bandwagon if you haven't taken the time to actually read the forums terms and conditions.

    undertaker has asked me to post this here.

    I can't reply on my own at the moment because my accounts are being banned. Firstly on -:undertaker:- I always post construtively against Management when I do, so to those who are saying I don't post properly, rethink that.

    Secondly on my second account, ---MAD--- closed the threads and banned me, the ban reason was - registering to post negatively. Now i'm sorry but, how am I supposed to post postively about a pathetic rule?

    Thirdly on my third account which I signed up on around an hour ago, I sent a PM to ---MAD--- appealing my ban and it wasn't at all rude. I was banned instantly.

    ---MAD--- closed that thread saying we do not discuss bans publically, fair enough. However how the hell am I supposed to appeal when I am being banned instantly? I was banned om -:undertaker:- because I was discussing the ione Gifts, not because I was having a go at management which I wasn't. This 'rule' which isn't even mentioned in the FAQS or the banning information thread is purely designed to ban people who will speak up if another member is banned unfairly or a move is made by forum management which is extremly unpopular. We have seen it before with GommeInc. Why is it that you have to run HabboxForum which is a active forum, with a community which pulls together when things are wrong like a Soviet Union or Nazi Germany. The comparison is large yes, however the ideals aren't. The truth is that now people who are disliked by management are banned under twisted and bent rules designed to introduce silence. I am not against Habbox, infact I often help Immenseman with the Rare Values. I post ideas for Habbox. Alas, it seems all of this has been ignored in a moment on madness by Habbox Management.

    I ask you not to ban my next HxF account because I am appealing, because I am right and you are wrong. May I ask how is being in Management any fun when you are strongly hated by the majority of the forum?

    I'd like to thank those of you who have been fighting for me to be unbanned just like I woudl with anyone on the forum - not because I am bitter about being fired as Rare Values Manager but because I speak my mind.

    I agree entirely with his view on Habbox, if I could be bothered to write an essay for the council to discuss about how absn work, then I wuld, but I doubt anything will ever come of it.

    People shouldn't be immediately banned, it's pathetic and shows how lazy and unprofessional some individuals are, they probably shouldn't even have such powers on this forum. Banning some instantly never works, it's the cowards way out. If they were social, they would ask a member why they are doing whatever they are doing, and give them a fair, honest view which is coming from a robot/someone with something lodged far up their backside, which I have seen countless times in the Complaints/Feedback forum.

    he signed these terms upon sign up, they used them.

    end of
    I made the terms and conditions aftter I signed up but I clearly stated for my own account that it may never as owner or even normal member be banned and any T&C's introduced do not affect the 1st ever account made on HxF so does that actually mean I can do what I like?

    Indeed it does, but it means you don't know how to handle the situation and ban just because you can. It makes management look like fools when no reason is given, or a good one that is just automated, very unprofessional.
