    Sorry for causing such an issue over using the term noob instead of newb.

    I'll remember to not be so insulting next time :rolleyes:

    He's actually right. I don't think people read threads, see someone has used the term 'noob' and decide not to register but as a whole, the general attitude towards newer members seems to be about how "irrelevant" they are or how much they troll + spam and trying to mould people into some bizarre notion of maturity that hardly any younger Habbo users are ever going to achieve (the young members we do have are on average far mature than you would expect for their age group, thinking of people like Shaz and runeaddict99). The irony being that maturity and wisdom would acknowledge that the immaturity of youth is not something that needs to be stamped out of them but that energy can be used to improve, not diminish, the community in general.

    As regards to calling them points, Habbox tournament generally uses the term points and that clash might also get confusing.

    Would be easier to substitute the term 'points' in future tournaments rather than avoid using it for this system. eggs for easter, pumpkins for halloween, etc.

    You do understand =/= means not equal to, right? Seems you don't know a lot.

    Great attitude by the way, that'll get the forum going.

    I think Habbox Credits is fine - call them HxCreds if you really want to avoid confusion (although that sounds bad!)

    Was gonna say just call them HC (Habbox Credits).. but then people would think it's Habbo Club. But yeah I don't agree with them being called just Credits, because it'll cause confusion - especially if you, you can buy 5 credits on Habbo for 500 credits on the forum or something.

    Not online very often
