Habbo caught up in child sex scandal / Habbo Mute

Gone way too far, in my opinion no-one cared before it was on channel four, now its bumming crisis.

well tbh if they knew about the sexual situation they'd care, it did need to be alerted to the public before i think sulake would really get their asses in gear

Theres a poll in the welcome lounge atm asking for your view. I wrote like an essay for both of them, will it help? Hopefully!

right, so you think C4 were wrong to focus their attention on habbo simply because it happens elsewhere too? that is nonsensical - they focused on habbo for two reasons; 1) because its the biggest game of its type and 2) because instead of combating this problem, over the past few years habbo have actually cut moderation thereby exposing more people to risk.

Wait. So by your logic Channel 4 should just focus on Habbo and ignore all the other sites. You do realise that the pedophiles channel 4 keep talking about aren't going to care if Habbo closes because they'll just start using a different site. I'm far form saying Habbo/Sulake should be let off but what should be happening right now is Habbo should be used as an example of what is going on on many sites and better restrictions in general should be happening.

As I keep saying, its evident also that the Habbo problem with users having virtual cyber sex is nothing new on Habbo, so we should be also looking at how long it took the so called organisations trying to prevent this to realise it was actually happening.

It mentions something about “The Great Unmute” and that more details will follow in the coming days. So it looks like we wont be unmuted for a while yet.

i'm pretty surprised we haven't been unmuted yet. they're probably going to make a big deal over the 'the great unmute'.

Yeah it has been posted Alex, thankfully Paul didn't catch on to our little cyber session . I don't have the patience to wait a few more days tbh lol. I'll go on now and then jus' to silently protest for the sake of it, but it's incredibly boring (considering I hate this fast food game as well ).

Come on! Habbo is a comunity were children come to CHAT with eachother, ofcourse there are perverts on habbo hotel!
WHOLE THE INTERNET IS FULL OF IT!
I mean, Chatroullette? Camsex? Pornsites? Pedofiles? THEIR IN EVERY COUNTRY, IN EVERY CHAT PROGRAM, IN EVERY CORNER OF YOUR SCREEN!
You can't blame habbo for that.. I mean, I've played habbo when I was 10 years old and even when i think of it nowadays, I still get a trusted feeling. Habbo is, and was. A place were all my buddies could hang out safe with eachother on the internet.. With my friends we opened a caffee ''cafee bierenhuis'' (english: The beer pub) and I never had one bad experience back then, And even if i log in today.. Its the internet, so If anyone says: Hey what's your msn? Wanna cam with me? Show me your di*k. Their is one simple solution: Haha, Bye! Oh yeah, your mom called.. She was upset because your a pedofile and she's wondering when she's finally gonna have grandchildren...

What kind of a point are you trying to make? Of course there is porn on a porn site, that's where people expect to see it and it's for over 18s.

would have thought it would have been unmuted by now, seems a little ridiculous. no one cared and there wasn't a massive problem before ch4 mentioned it, all they need is some better mods and should pay more attention to dating rooms. but there aren't even dating rooms now so.. and most of the people on habbo are fine and just want to go back to normal, talking to their friends

this is hilarious, they muted everyone? omg
