Advertising Habbox.com is now a perm ban.

[immense]

Looks like they will be doing a relaunch. Habbox should have no problem getting back on the list

I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't. There are at least two big fansites from each hotel really. Should be harder to predict than the normal UK ones, although I hope it does get official status again.

A Moderator has now clarified this situation:



You can talk about Habbox but not spam its name.

Thats only from one mod.

My fansite is mainly based around Habbo USA so we've had this problem for a very long time.

All the other mods will lock and rename any room that has "Habbox" in it's name or description. They will do full room kicks too.

This "rule" was only a Habbo USA rule. Habbo.com is no longer Habbo USA, it's just Habbo Hotel. But hey, it's just the americans taking over

The Moderator explained that new Mods aren't familiar with Habbox and will only ban if you are spamming the Habbox name. Mentioning it or directing people to it is fine.

As far as I know (which isn't saying much, I haven't been around Habbo that much lately prior to the merge) Habbo CA, and perhaps other hotels always disallowed advertising of none official fansites. It does make it kind of difficult for new fansites to start up, but yer :\


Anyways, hopefully those rules change once all the fansite stuff is worked out, and it'll be interesting to see how & which fansites are chosen to be official. ^^

What's the link for the official fansite list on Habbo USA? Since the groups messed up I haven't been able to find the UK one..
I know there'd be some things they wouldn't have worked out yet..

I did not know it was against the rules to advertise a habbo fansite? where in the terms and conditions does it say this?
