    2003
    - Join, love it, all friends irl are playing, HCs! Thr0n3z! Mafias!
    - Set up KLM Mafia with SPACEMASTER, PROSPECTOR, JORD123 & others (We all had caps names looking back, my god we were noobs)
    - Spend Christmas trolling our house phones and Nokia 3210s for credits, receive obligatory telling off by New Years, so glad I bought some trophies (still have!), took lots of photos
    - Apply to be Hobba, but it's blates I'm talking out my back-side and faking my age, don't get it
    - Win Funky Friday, 50c, feels rich, blow it all on an iced maze & my first rare, holoboy (before Habbox values, most everything was a steal)
    - Join Coke Music too, get impatient, too slow, computer is pentium 2. Pretend to be 'Geno' (if anyone still gets that ref) and mope about for a month or so, faked a ZIP code to register

    2004
    - Most irl friends have left mostly, Fifa & Medal of Honour caught their gaming fancy, but I remained hooked, alongside AoE, RTC & other RTS games, oh, also Coke Music!
    - Know the ropes by now, spotting staff about, engaging in competitions, narrowly lose out winning my first Throne in Jibbi's Slice of Life room comp, gutted
    - Hacked for the first time, hacker makes my screen black, green text, opens disk drive I **** brix
    (No loss because I'd (not) learned very basic keylogging/scripting etc and may or may not have cleaned all my friends accounts they'd abandoned!)
    - Leave for a year or so after hack, got a perm ban around this time also. Hated Callie, many new players rolling in, emergence of 'celebs' and 'popular habbos' culture, decline of Hobbas, rise of Habbox!
    - More on Habbox: Joined forums in 2004. Habbox arrives with rare values, well maintained site, great owners, soon becomes #1 fansite easily, competitors include: impetuous.net & habbohut(?) - also, anyone remember the collaborative alt site, Habbo Towers? That was a pretty big gimmick back then

    2005
    - Play very little, start collecting rares and building some more adventurous rooms

    2006
    - Play a lot more, (didn't) get into scripting, dabble with client-side stuff, still noobing it with it, legend of SonicMouse is already well known & a distant memory
    - Get into RPGs, Rome: Total War, Italianate Mafias, Star Wars etc, mainly made rooms, get up to 5T for the first time trading
    - Recolours rule the market now, start trying to be good at making profit, fail badly
    - Made mazes, the old type, just clicking, favourites to visit were: L1C and Eric30

    2007
    -
    Stop scripting after being scared by a perm ban I appealed, not related though.
    - Bet in casinos, lose a ridiculous amount, leave, come back, leave again, rinse & repeat for a few months
    - Begin taking screenshots after my last script with a friend, start of a (now) large-ish collection (see signature)
    - Spend a lot of time in Public Rooms, Gamehall especially, Lost_Witness gets HM, everyone's happy, nice era to play in

    2008
    - Screeny EVERYTHING. Features set so go soon, snap them, Querky rooms, snap that. MODs or staff leaks, snap that, mad for it.
    - Club Habbo is hacked, Habbox still repping it, long respected by now (despite the controversies!) - on and off official site, more active on this forum
    - Photo script emerges, porn everywhere, Habbo panics, photos deleted
    - Start Skyping with international friends for the first time, begin to detract from the majority community (as happens when you age), start thinking I'm cool in 18+ rooms, playing mainly to talk/hang with friends
    - Begin looking for Habbo history websites etc

    2009
    - Lot of trading, building competition entries, start getting ideas to collect Habbo history elsewhere
    - Flash is looming, everyone's leaving, no-ones happy - flash arrives and we all get used to it
    - Start collecting super slow in number, gold screens, greens screens, rare teleports, begin interest in history all that too

    2010-13
    -
    Anything post-merge is all about the same, played a little less, more on the forums than ever.
    - Made a lot of rooms for comps, involved with Room Builders this year
    - Rare Value editor trialist, now Content Design, working to make Habbo history clearer & detailed
    - Started collecting seldom seen and querky super rares from the past for the Museum of Habbo
    LOVED READING THIS, LEGEND!

    I started playing habbo in 2004. I bought some coins (the only time I've ever bought coins) and got the little pod bundle with a pod, z shelf, tv, rug and a pizza box I think. I got white flooring wallpaper and made a nice little room.

    Then in 2005, a friend said she found a way to get free habbo coins (a real friend) and the person did it on my account without my permission. But it ended up hacking all of our accounts through key logging I think.

    I played a little up to 2006 despite being hacked but I definitely took a long break. I returned in 2007 and began going to giveaways and games. I began gambling. I earned eventually around 10 hc sofas, which was around 130c back in the day. I continued to gamble and go to rooms to win stuff, eventually getting up 200+ hcs. This brings us up to around 2008.

    I was pressured to bet my hcs and I lost all the hundreds I had. Betting 10-20 at a time, lost them all within 15 minutes. It was rather upsetting. But I continued to gamble what I won, sell it etc. I opened a pod-walled casino and made quite a bit of profit. Eventually earning my way back. Getting closer to 2009, I managed to earn my value back. Making new friends and losing old friends. In 2009+ I got a throne, a HC trade city, petal floor and majestic chairs. However, I ended up pickalling my trade city (which was a bit popular, not extremely well known) and betting 100+ hcs. Lost them all again.

    But I still had my petals, a throne and so on... Which I sold for HC sofas... And then the merge came eventually, in 2010 I think? Making my value decrease by around 90% due to HC sofas falling down to 1-2c. I got mad, joined habbox events and gave away all my 100s of HC Sofas as an events organizer. Or at least I think I did that.

    At this point, all I had was a few coins and lots of norms. I had a huge addiction to casinos (I still do actually) and it was really hard for me to stop. So yeah, I didn't. 2011 comes and I'm getting quite a bit richer. I've got full petal floor casino with dicemasters etc. Slowly losing it all and earning it all back. 2012 eventually comes and I open Deal or No Deal for the first time. After a month, I close it down. I then made a Mega Arcade which earned a great profit. I continously took down and rebuilt Deal or No Deal and the Mega Arcade.

    Oh, and I also became a wired lover whenever wired was released.

    Anyway, coming to 2013 I own a successful Deal or No Deal business on habbo, earning lots. I ended up making Temple Run, an automatic wired game which earned me 5000c+. I remade it once the joint owner pickalled his half, earning me a few more thousand. I now have a guide on wired and a YouTube channel to help people and I also get paid to wire peoples rooms.

    Throughout all of that, this brings us to the present day. I'm now worth around 25t+, I'm honestly not sure but definitely more than that. My Deal or No Deal is open, with a Mega Arcade possibly coming soon. I may eventually make a casino and maybe an auto game again. I also own an auto beat the dragon room which is not being used.

    I may have not got all of the dates correct, so I apologize for that. Damn, I wrote a lot.

    My sister's friend introduced my sister, then my sister introduced me in around 04 (could be 05) when I was 7. We both wanted to play it all the time but only had one computer. One day, my sister was on Habbo and I wanted to have a go, so I kept pressing WWW on the keyboard, and somehow the computer broke

    We used to stay up late and build rooms together, and one night, I went to sleep with some Ice Lanterns on my account, and woke up the next day and they were on her's. My sister denied it, but I knew she took them. I even dreamed about Habbo. In one dream, I went to storage rooms full of HC sofas and could pick them up.

    My sister eventually grew up and got bored of it, but I still playing and spending money on it until October 2011 when I trust traded furniture and my friend got 'hacked'. My mum and dad must have spent over 3 grand in total. I've hardly played since.

    Oh, and I think it was 07 or 08 (actually could have been 06) when I met someone called Moesha. I was friends with her for ages and suddenly she said she had to go forever or something. That was upsetting But I think a few years ago she was on her MSN account. She didn't remember me though.


    I've got lots more to say but it's pretty boring

    Edit: I had another friend who knew I had tons of furniture, so he and his friend hacked me by saying he'd design my homepage. Instead he took a lot of furni. When I found out, I knew he took it, so I forced him to give it back. He did, so I moved my furniture over to another account, and changed my password and email. I forgot them and took me like 4 years to get the account back. But I didn't remember I moved the furni to another account, so it was empty when I got it. Eventually, though, I found the account and it wasn't that rich lol

    Edit 2: I also had another friend, well a group of friends who used to hang out in the Habbo Mall. We'd talk for hours, and one of them even helped me install Windows 7 on my laptop. Then one day they wanted nothing to do with me. I don't know why though

    Now heres my NEW entry lol:

    So erm yeah summer 04' I was new to MSN & I used to talk to my cousin Lou (you guys might know him as Diablo-Lou, 911 or Pappalou), anyway he told me to log in so I tried but I couldn't be bothered installing flash player so I stalled it until a couple weeks later. I came online and it was good I loved it, he then told me to buy credits so I bought some & made a nice room.

    Anyway my cousin back then was selfish, he was really spiteful and out for his own back. He knew I was vulnerable & a n00b so he used to invite people into convo's on MSN & made them pretend to be Habbo Staff with the Staff badge as the avatar lol. He hacked my account & all my furni but that wasn't the last time, I was getting Habbo safety smart, you know learning the ropes and all. I had a WWE wrestling federation at the time of 2005. It had throne sofas, majestics you name it! So 1 day I logged in and all my furni was gone, it was because I logged in my Habbo at his house maybe a few days earlier so he installed some type of programme to record my keystrokes.


    After that I carried on with Habbo but kept coming up with dead ends furni wise, I never made profit in so I decided trying to be a public Habbo figure, I entered alot of competitions and tried to make myself known in the community. I succeeded in this and was known as a 'e-rebel'. I was a TROLL, back then no one knew what trolling was but now everyone does lol. I used to troll people on Habbox Forum & on Habbo it's self, many X's/Staff HATED me, I mean despised me but I used to love trolling them, 1 day I made a porno on a retro of Ardl & Redtiz, the video got around and even redtiz saw it! it was very funny haha.

    In around 06' - 08' I was around casinos, dealing & betting. Same old crap.

    2011 - Came back, bought £300 worth of GB's & set up a nice casino. My casino failed due to the 'LARGE' scale Casinos being too big of rooms and rich. I bought rights in couple casinos & was making so decent coin until 1 day I came on drunk & better 260GBs in the space of 5 minutes, lol good times.


    MEMORIES: 1 Day in 2005 there was a glitch in Habbo where if you picked up furni in your room it would go to your hand but it would also STAY in your room. So I did this with a T-Sofa (it only glitches 2 squares in my room) at the time and I kept trading them in and within an hour I had 30+ HC Sofas, im not even lying it was a rare glitch. They never got taken off me until weeks later when I was hacked by my own cousin.

    I KNEW I RECOGNISED YOUR NAME, your cousin and Antony04 set up a fansite and I was like their Head DJ/Radio Manager for most of the time, they were top lads. You still keep in touch with any of them? Tell them Pyroka said hi from Habzone hahahha. I'll post my history later on, seeing as it's actually quite a strange story.

    I originally remember my sister's friend talking to her on MSN about Habbo, telling her to join and everything. This was in 2008 and her friend asked if my sister would like an account making for her, she declined and went onto the site herself. I don't think she joined at that point as she put her real age on and we weren't sure whether our mum would approve of joining as back then you needed a parent's email as well.

    However, a little while later she ended up joining on one of her old accounts that she probably lost in the merge. She then started playing more on various accounts.

    I remember being in Blackpool in May 2008 and I must have ended up making an account called Samantha421 (thinking this was my first account). Although, I'm sure it must have been May when I made it, as I remember being in Blackpool and saying I'd have 421 on the end of my name - I'd only go to Blackpool in May or October though, which is odd due to my account being made in July. I'm guessing I made a random account instead most probably. Anyway, I thought this was my first account.

    I didn't play for a while and we'll say I made the account Samantha421 now, after I made it and started playing more I realised how much fun I could have had if I had joined sooner - I'd had an operation in June of the same year and I was bored throughout the week, so that would have been good to play. After playing on that for the day I then accidentally went onto the Habbo.com one as I didn't know there were different ones - my login didn't work due to this, so I made a new account under the same name and again didn't really play on it.

    I then didn't go on often until my sister told me about the Penguin promotion they were doing throughout December. Unfortunately I missed the UK one, but on the US hotel you could join in and pick up the Penguins whichever day even though you wouldn't get the big prize at the end. I think I joined in for two days then got bored again.

    At the back end of 2008 I must have started playing again as me and my sister were very excited about buying HC, weighing up whether it was worth it or not. We decided to get it and we were amazed by it all.

    I then remember playing a quiz where there were just a couple of people in, I ended up winning and the prize was something and a HC TV and I thought I was the richest person on Habbo. I then won again and got a smaller item. I also remember getting 5 Credits off of Habbo and buying a Paddling Pool and 4 Doormats thinking I was great at trading too.

    After this I started trading a bit more and me and my sister would go to fansite giveaways like MyBOBBA.net and stand there for hours just dancing until we saw if a giveaway would be on. I got bored of this pretty quickly and she then said that if I ever needed values for furni I should go on Habbox. I then worked at a variety of sites such as Habbo-Charts as an Events Organiser and it was owned by iWhizz and I thought it was the best fansite ever. I then went onto Habbox to find values and found out there was a radio with DJ Melissa on, I was listening and trying to enter the competition she was doing, but I didn't realise she was saying her Habbo name was Melsia, not Melissa, so I couldn't play. From then on I started going to Habbox events and I found out the Easter Eggstravaganza was on and I started playing even though I was a week late. I managed to gain 2nd place after this and won something like 14 HCs and 2 Months Forum VIP - winning the VIP made me join the forum and start posting around. I joined it in March 2009. After this I then got permed on Habbo for scamming someone - I noticed in a game you could P2S and then ask for rights as 'trading lagged you' this would then give you the idea that you could move an item and pretend that you had put it down, so I took this to trade shops. I asked for this Canada Flag as I was searching all day for a shop with a pile of Credits and I finally found one. I asked for the Flag and said that trading lagged me, so could I put the Credit down, he agreed and I moved one off of his pile. I then got the Flag then left. After 5 minutes I thought, oh I'll go trade it back to him as it's wrong, but when I went in he told me he had already reported, so I kept it. A couple of days later when I was helping my sister boost her wealth I was permed. Luckily I got unbanned a week later and continued with Habbox. I remember this is the first time I met @Sharon; as I did the 'scam' in her room, but I didn't know it was her until years later.

    I started posting more on Habbox and started entering competitions and filling in applications for jobs. On the 23rd October 2009 I got a trial in the Events Department and on the 9th November 2009 I got a trial in the Rare Values Department. I was in these until the 22nd February when I was dismissed from all my roles for account sharing. I was put on the Do Not Hire List until the 22nd January 2011 and then I began applying for roles again.

    Whilst playing HxSS in 2009 I met Dj Lexi Lu who introduced me to @Shockwave.2CC; who was originally known as sharkboy908. We started talking and I kept asking him out, but he would just ignore me and not mention it. Then he got hacked and I told him if I was mean I could have easily hacked him as his secret answer was easy for his email, but I didn't. After that we started dating and this was on going for a few months, this continued and I started talking to his mother and sister, his mum became a close friend of mine and eventually told me to dump Kyle so I could be happy with other people. Eventually we broke up then I found this Habbox Forum member called @Laggings; who @Alex3213; set me up with sort of. During this time though I was also dating @powpow; and Laggings then dumped me on Christmas Day and decided to date my irl sister instead. Being honest I then told powpow that I had been dating Laggings and he dumped me too. During this time I became good friends with @HotelUser; and I would talk to him until 5am in the morning each day as it would have only been 12am in Canada for him. Unfortunately, me and HotelUser had differences and I started talking to him less and ended up falling out with the likes of @Shar; @Jamiie; and @Dilusionate; for it, as I was apparently the bad person.

    For Christmas Day 2009, I was also hacked by Almana and had to watch all my stuff being taken, fortunately @Soy; collected most of my furni and gave it back to me a few days later. This is when I made the account missalicetaylor and samanthaw421 to keep safe from the hackers.

    I then began working at @Mr-Trainor;'s fansite and I was the Events Manager which included competitions and events, I was then partnered with @Rigr; who ran the competitions side of the department. I was then promoted wrongly by @Ajthedragon; and moved up to be the Assistant Manager (Community) and then @imgonnaexplode; was promoted too even though there was no work for one AGM(C) let alone two. I was apparently only meant to become the Assistant Rare Values Manager though. I was then dismissed from the role as I called Mr-Trainor sexist, but I remained the Event Manager, unfortunately I was dismissed from this later as I told Luke to **** off. After that I began allegedly dating Orangeesh, who apparently was joking about dating me, oh well, this ended and I then lost @Sacha; as a friend.

    After Haboosh I started posting on Habbox more and then got roles back when I could apply again, within 3 months I made it to the Rare Values Manager and started getting used to things to do with the manager work.

    == To Be Continued ==
