HFFM Closing

[e5]

Aw, never really got into the HFFM community, but I know it was good. It's a shame I missed the last radio show!

HFFM had a nice community, but it's no surprise this has happened. Both Skaterchu and Carnio are like bumbuddies, honestly they're that close it's unreal lol, I bet he's thought about this since ClubHabbo ditched their radio. End of the day, a lot of their users will be using the forums and just the forums, with a limited amount of people listening to the radio. Habbox is going to be one of the only radios still running at this rate, and that could either make them or break them but that's in the future, and who knows if Habbox will still exist (lol ofc it will).

In fairness to Carnio, I'm surprised he didn't do this sooner. When you go on placement though, it takes up ALL your time so I think it's a wise choice, and no doubt he'll pass on the administration reigns to someone else soon, although he'll always be there as an owner (a lot like Sierk does I guess).

HabboFunFM closing the radio should not and will not deter people from using the forum. There is several reasons why the radio closed such as funding, Sam not having enough time to help run it and didn't find it fair dumping all responsibility onto the General Manager especially when pathetic ***** continued to DDOS the **** out of the radio. It got to the point that why should money keep getting put into the radio when there is several ***** who have to ruin everything for everyone. It was and still is a great fansite.

I've never listened or visited HFFM so I couldn't really say I'd "care" (in the nicest way to put it), shame though. Does anyone know the name of the owner on Habbo?

Would you sign up to a fansite purely for the forum, or does the radio and content encourage you further?

I'd say yes. Apart from yesterday (because of a giveaway) I haven't listened to the radio or been on the main page of habbox.com for over a year now. I soley visit Habbox because of the forum. ^.^

@Mathew; I would honestly join up just because of a forum and Mr-Trainor's site was a prime example of this, I don't think a radio or a forum makes a fansite it's mainly the members there and the added sites are a bonus :3.

I only joined up to Mr-T's site because of the people who were there, but yeah LOOOOL it was so fun!!

It will increase the listeners here and @Mathew; this is a good time to be opening the events applications! Also wasn't DJ Billy at HFFM and hes came back to us?

We opened apps and then I read about this... bonus!!

So he got a job at mcdonalds then

Haha, I went to take a look at what the world's 2nd largest employer was after I'd read it.. People's Liberation Army in China apparently. Interesting.

Does anyone know the name of the owner on Habbo?

Carnio.

Someone at HFFM came here and just scored himself a News Trial woo !

Maybe this is a God send, I say everything happens for a reason!

Sam (Carnio) closed the radio mainly because of real life, he is now in a sustained career. He was hardly on the fansite for a while because his university course came first which is understandable, a Habbo fansite is not going to get you grades. Fair play to him. He worked on HFFM for six hard years which is amazing. I worked their a couple of times and the community is amazing, always is going to be. The radio was getting DDOS'ed everyday for a good month so the radio slowly died out. I feel this is a good decision, their forum will stay popular, the problem with ClubHabbo, most of their users just 'troll' the forum and I see a lot of bullying to new members on there.

Plus side Habbox/HabboxLive I'm sure will gain some listeners and also staff. Habbox & ThisHabbo are the two main Habbo fansites now.

Sorry to seem nooby but what is DDOS/DDOS'ED

[wiktoria]

I don't see how it is selfish. The site was getting DDoS'ed and the listeners weren't that great so there wasn't any point of keeping the site open. I'm not sure if the forum will stay popular but right now it's doing good. It's a shame but whatever. pce
@COLD; it's an attack on a website or server or whatever else by overloading it

Just thought I'd mention, I tried getting onto hffmforum tonight, and well... it links to a completely diff site, totalgoss.com or sommet similar.

It's changed into a different forum which I never knew about nor expected to happen? Quite surprised they've shifted from a Habbo fansite forum to a teen discussion forum... will be interesting to see how it turns out.
