    Default Unfiltering an acronym.

    Shouldn't HBXF unfilter a certain word now that Habbo are using it in headlines?

    Habbo are using it in a different context compared to what most people on this forum would use.

    Who cares if it has a swear word in it, **** obviously wouldn't be unfiltered but theres no point filtering silly abbreviations like this because they aren't considered offensive or anything.

    Most of them got unfiltered once, then there was an uproar when users were being punished for avoiding the filter with other words and complained that people got away with it with ***** etc.

    Well maybe you should check what it means before warning users?

    I know what *** means. We have said time and time again we don't want to let users swear on the forum as it makes the place look untidy and what not.
