    When Habbo was on their second layout (the one with the blue HABBO background) you could get a full list of the silver/gold Hobbas (A-Z).

    I thought Habbox took their list from there?

    Perhaps an older version of the list, however as I said in my preceeding post, the list was newly created.

    The list that was on the original Habbo UK page was correct, but the casing on the names was incorrect, and it only had a list of the current hobbas at that time, this list has about 95% of the hobbas from late 2001 through 'til 2005.

    Yeah you're right, Nick did make that list, but what I can't understand is why someone would borrow content from the habboages.tk to put on Habbox and then put no recognition to the person who created it.

    Oh, Where you a member of TTT too?

    We haven't used that site, never seen it before.

    I used the list from the old Habbox site and knowledge others had, and was then sent a newer version of the list by someone on this forum (can't remember who because it was a while ago and I've deleted PMs since then)

    I don't see the similarities other than HabboAges one is more impressive, although slightly long...

    Having looked at HabboAges it looks nothing like Habbox's. When I was making the pages I got told not to put too much information in them else it would take hours to read, as most of the pages already do

    All HabboAges has done is put a load of writing, a list of hobbas and some images. Yes, they have more information on what the different ranks etc. were, as did the old Habbox Knowledge page, I just chose not to use that information since I wasn't continuing the thing on the old page, highlighting the names in different colours for their roles, simply because it would have taken so long to gather the information and asking around who did what.

    Yes, the idea of showing their Habbos is something to fill up more space on the page and make it look more interesting than just all the writing there, is there really any point to it? Wow, we can see what they used to wear... that helps us loads! 9/10 of them would have changed their clothes since then..

    Also, just because a site has a list of names that looks similar, doesn't mean they're copied. Yes, if a site had copied Habbox's Release Guides, text and images, that would be obvious as they belong to Habbox, no one else. The list of Hobbas was on the homepage, as someone said and is also on many other sites (im guessing so) and therefore a site cannot claim they 'own' that list.

    Can't edit other post.

    Another point, if whoever sent me the list did get it from HabboAges, their list isn't correct and is missing some people. I'll be going through Habbox's page sometime in the future and try to make comparisons between the two. I've just looked on Habbo's list of Hobbas, looked back at HabboAges, and there are differences between the two ie. missing hobbas. Habbox's list also has differences between both Habbo's list and HabboAges' in that there are also some missing as listed on both sites, and also more than are listed on HabboAges in the few letters I compared. As that, its clear the list isn't copied.

    The Habbox list used to be the same as HabboAges, HabboAges updated and so did Habbox. I see Habbox has added Impetuous and a few other Hobbas to their list.

    I believe it's rather interesting to see Hobba's old photos, the missions are interesting as well.


    That's not all HabboAges is done, I'm not saying the Habbox list isn't well done, but HabboAges went above and beyond. Not only is their list up to date, but even all the images are catigorized too.

    As Array's previously said, the Habbo UK website's list was only showing Hobbas are the current time. Therefore HabboAges didn't rip the list. I can testify that HabboAges and Habbox had the exact same list recently.

    Personal opinions

    How exactly have they gone above and beyond. Both sites have the same key information, if I were to copy the information from the old Habbo Knowledge onto the new page, then that would provide the rankings and what they do. Also how can a list of something in the past be up-to-date...

    Well, you testify wrongly. Considering I typed the list out myself from what I was sent, and haven't added anything to that section of the page since it was created, the list can't be the same. There are more, or less, names around certain letters in both the Habbox, Habbo and HabboAges lists. The list on Habbox has always been as it is since the new version of Habbox Knowledge was released.

    You know his first name so you must have known him well, are you Lee from TTT if so you probably knew his site was linked to the old TTT website in 2003.
    Haha, yeah I am. How'd you remember?
    But, I didn't actually know this site existed, though one of my first coding projects was on the TTT site... ah the memories.
