Habbo caught up in child sex scandal / Habbo Mute

Without him there would be a different CEO, obviously. And probably a better one at that.

I'd love to see someone like yourself go in his boots, not sure if you notice but before all this happened he worked well i see him tweeting about 13-16 hours a day so most likely when he wakes up and before he goes to bed. Making Habbo better day in day out. Running a company is hard enough, right enough being a CEO of a site like Habbo a multi million pound empire, he's taking all the press, the habbo's all at once, Look at his twitter for example its constantly going off.

I definitely think it wouldnt take too much effort for mods to have a look through the room names and add the sexy singles type rooms to a list of rooms hidden from under 16s

I agree with this, everyone is practically against him for something which wasn't even his fault. He didn't design the furni, the rooms and especially with loads of tweets coming in, he is handling it great.

Making a little tutorial game or throwing an age restriction on guest rooms will not stop paedophiles. Why would the average 14-year-old who makes a "Sexy Singles" make their room an 18+? People who are 18+ don't want cyber-sex in the first place!

Stopping them altogether will never happen and is some what impossible. Making the rules clear isn't that bad of an idea at all - It's getting users aware of the rules and what they can do if they find someone breaking/abusing them. In theory they are just trying to make a Habbo a safer place but here will always be some sort of "bad" guys on there.

It would also help if they improved moderation, which I hope is one of their improvements but we will have to wait and see.

Yep cause a CEO just has to tweet to his players and that makes him great Incase you hadn't noticed, he is only applying this update cause of C4. If they didn't do this, Habbo would still be the same as it was 4 days ago, full of sex rooms.

So true, the only person speaking sense here really

Indeed, nothing will stop as there is always that one bad guy.

If you want to go so far, it will turn in to Club Penguin where you only need to swear or saying something sexual in this case to be banned. That will not help as this is for teens and I don't think teens want to be treated the way 8 year olds on Club Penguin do.

No no, course it doesn't but communicating with your customers / clients 24/7 (Helpdesk) and being a ceo doing it when you have other things to do 15 hours a day is absolutely crazy, Yep your most likely right, well it would have been done, just not for a while i think. But hows that his fault? Heck i still think its a small problem that c4 have made bigger.

Theres peodo's everywere, it just takes one huge mistake then they re-offend and do it again and again as seen in the C4 report of that guy.

That maybe the case yes but at least they are taking action? They aren't just ignoring the reports and Habbo is continuing and no changes has been made what so ever. To be honest, it was only last year when the EU said Habbo and the Xbox 360 platforms are SAFE!
