Anyone else agree that Habbo is past it's prime?

[Samantha]

I began in 2008 and I found it good for a long while, although I weren't here when Habbo first begun I felt I knew what I needed to know about it.
After becoming an original beta tester I quickly got bored of Habbo altogether really working at Habbox made me more willing to go on Habbo and now I only tend to go on to play games or build myself back up again. I also got hacked on Christmas Day 2009 which also hindered my experience. I feel there are younger audiences nowadays and so it lacks the wow factor it once had. The age that children get a laptop and internet now decreases more and more and then they find Habbo some how so they play and appear as noobs. But one thing, when they grow up and become avid Habbo players they will also laugh at noobs, which should make them realise why people laughed at them when they first started.
However, when I first started, I was a noob, I had bacon hair, then tramp hair and I thought I was rich when I won a HC TV, but those were the days and in them days people didn't scam much and they didn't care about the richness or anything. So over the years Habbo has been the best thing but has decreased.

There trying to keep up with the times and trying to add extra things, bit like cod4 and mw2, they took the basic decent stuff and tried to make it better by adding more stuff to it and ended up making it worse.

Habbo was fun cause it was basic and simple, now theres sooooooooooo much furni ive never even heard of and pointless achievements with next to nothing as a reward.

The general concensus is it's prime was 2005-2007 and I'd pretty much agree with this, the competitions etc were all at their best and most original at that point. Everytime I login these days it's even less like it was back then. The actual players are much the same though I think, it's still full of scammers, people trying to get rich and others sucking up to Habbo staff.

People didn't scam much in 2008? LOL. It was just the same as it is now, if not worse. If you want to know when people didn't scam you need to go back to atleast 2004, obviously there was still scams, but not as many. And it wasn't so centered on furni, credits, HC etc then.

Ever since the Hobba's left it's just gone down hill.

I agree, and don't forget VMK, that game was the bomb. I think habbo is way past It's prime, Coke Studios should still be open and it should be more populated than habbo right now in my opinion.

I say to my self it's because we're getting older.. But then I went on a habbo retro.. and trust me side ways, it's not because you've grown up.. It's changed so much, and isn't the Habbo we all loved. it was like wow!

I agree that the prime was 2005-2007.

I started when I was 13 in Nov '05 and I quit in Aug '09. I came back last month though, and so much has changed (for the worse, in my opinion). I miss the games like diving, snowstorm, old battleball, wobblesquabble, the cameras.

2007-2008 were my best and most fufilling habbo years. I had the most fun and had a lot of friends then who I actually hung out with a lot. (in habbo)

Basically, I miss the habbo before the beta version. I also miss the consoles and the one brown hair colour. When the habbo homepages first came out to be precise. (and the first "poof" changing).

[orientalframe?]

Habbo is pretty much filled up with noobs wanting naughty time. (LOL im not in the mood to be saying rude words) ;[

[Ardemax]

yeah gave up like 2 years ago (sounds like a drug, ik) but seriously it was sooooo boring

and the friends or should i say 'friends' you made, well, as soon as you say you're going, bang, they want anything and everything

also when i used to play, games like mocha theft and i dunno dont touch the floor or pick me up, were well good and fun and now its just gone
