What's your Habbo History? EDIT

[Shorty]

I don't really remember everything to the exact point, minus how I joined Habbo.

Joining Story
When I was younger I wasn't privileged enough to have a computer nor internet access at home, instead I went to the library every Saturday, within the library was a downstairs children's/teenager's computer area where everybody would go on whatever was popular at the time.

One day I went there, booked a computer and remember seeing screens full Habbo Hotel, nearly 80% or more out of the 12+ computers were on it, I jumped out of my seat and asked the librarian if she knew what it was and if she could help me sign up to it. She came over and asked one of the others on the computer what it was and how to sign up, they guided me through it and from that day, it took over my life slowly.

In a kind of timeless summery after the joining event.
- The account I started with, I don't remember it, don't think I currently use or own it.
- I spent a lot of time and a fair bit of money on Habbo.com instead of .co.uk
- Started other adventures from v7-v8 of Habbo and it continued on to several forums with different related content.
- I remember going on Habbo.co.uk around the time the free roses were given out, there was a glitch to get loads, I then traded them while people didn't know they were free.

I'll never forget the warm fuzzy feeling that I got when I finally got to join Habbo Hotel.

[PlERO-PPY]

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.

I can't be bothered writing anything else yet lmao.

My cousin owned MyBOBBA lol, that giveaway was probably mine I was rich with norms

My friend from Runescape got me into Habbo quite early in 2008 I think, I was quite nooby obviously, I stayed around for ~8-12 months I think? 1 day, a friend of mine got keylogged I think & I got sent a bebo link which turned out to have infected the laptop I was on. For some reason, I didn't login again & lost contact with the few people I knew back then.

Over the next year or so, I moved onto consoles [Xbox & WaW for a couple months then H3] only to be asked by somebody I knew if I played Habbo. I said I used to & he convinced me to rejoin. I ended up becoming sort of well known on my EnragedNoob account due to all the Takeshis Castles [Carnis] & other stuff [Saw] that I owned & were stacked by my friend "FakeSmile./Hevvarr" over the time of playing alongside being a bulk buyer. Since I was only around 14-15 at this time in mid/late 2010, I got myself into quite a lot of arguments, which ended up in being flamed for ~6 months.

I ended up getting the name "Other" alongside a bunch of other names on the April 2011 name reset; where I moved to a few weeks after, not wanting people to know my original account for some reason. I ended up quitting a few months later due to bad arguments with somebody I considered to be a best friend to me; transferring everything to another account of mine, which I've forgotten the email to [Habbo doing nothing about it].

To sum it up, I was nooby up until rejoining in February 2010, from where I grew to know a lot of people that I still miss today if I'm honest & sort of regret quitting in June 2011. I still login sometimes now, but none of my old friends play now, so meh, just a shame I can't go back in time.

Edit: Habbo is managed horribly now aswell, been trying to recover my safety I forgot the email to for 6+ months now.

[jorsian]

2006-Joined Habbo on the Canadian hotel in November of 2006, with the same account that I use now. I became addicted to games like modeling and falling furni, slowly building up a fortune of norms.

2007-Bought HC, e-dated a girl named babyphat38 and won my first site-wide competition where users had to design a Japanese postcard. It came with a badge and 100c, and was the beginning of my addiction to badges.

2008-Became immersed in the games Battle Ball and Snowstorm. As games were free for most of this year I was able to play a lot and eventually worked my way up to #1 on the Snowstorm leaderboard. I also joined a popular fansite called Habbos.ca on which I was very active.

2009-Became an active member of the on-site Habbo forums, slowly integrated myself into the community by winning TONS of competitions and badges (including Most Fashionable Habbo in the Yearbook), and won a BIG prize of 10 granite fountain in some rich Bingo.

2010-The merge came and I saw a lot of my furniture rise in value, causing my wealth to increase exponentially. After the merge, my 36 pink pillows went from a value of 20c each to 200c each. I also became an active participant in Big Brother and Survivor games hosted in-client.

2011-Stopped participating as often in site-wide competitions as I felt the quality of prizes were declining. I took a lot of time off Habbo for another site called OMGPOP which I started to enjoy more than Habbo.

2012-I logged on to Habbo less and less as Paul Lafontaine began ruining the site. I started investing in LTDs which were very profitable, making 50gbs from sales. I also joined the Habbox forums after the on-site forums were destroyed by the mute.

2013-Bought a Pink Dragon early this year which immediately rose to 100+gbs and started a Badge Archive on which I list all of the badges released onto the hotel.

i was the same basic habbo just like everyone else when i joined. we were all noobs and i'm not going to hide it.

in february this year, i messaged a habbo staff member suggesting habbo brought back funky friday. to my surprise, i got a message back asking for questions and then two weeks later it went live in the welcome lounge!

then in may, i received a minimail inviting me to the "habbo summer round table" meeting. there were only five of us, we learned about what was going to happen for the summer, and only one of our ideas (mines yay lol) got chosen. the other ideas were really good and i hope they do get used eventually. a week later they opened up a habbo summer suggestion poll and i was conveniently added to that list after being successful with the round table. i had a pretty decent idea for having a total wipeout event on habbo that lasted a week. the idea was chosen, however it did NOT turn out as well as planned (and barely related to the original idea). there was a catwalk competition with summer looks (1v1 originally) that was added into the wipeout week. after staff looking through my rooms, they wanted me to complete a freeze room i had jokingly made - and that was added to the wipeout week. then there was shark attack that was added to the wipeout. as you can probably tell it doesn't even relate to my idea so far. two habbos had planned to create a swimming race, which was cut out from the beginning leaving them no input to anything. the only thing i deem wipeout related was the competition for users to make rooms for the obstacle course (if you will). it went from total wipeout to summer water wipe out overload. i mean it wasn't that bad, they just took my idea and stripped it down terribly.

Show Hide

the whole summer thing actually carried out right until just before halloween, where they had the walking dead week. by this point, of the 15 there were only 2 of us left contributing to the events. there was supposed to be a "beat the zombie" event, but that got cancelled literally one week before the whole week because of a certain got game - meaning hosted games were a no-no! only automatic. so instead i made a zombie maze that was used for got game first week in october.

what's next?

hope you liked my story @PlERO-PPY

I used to play on my elder brothers account a lot in '08, but I made my own in '10.

I had a decent amount of furni and bars on that account, but I forgot the username, and my email account got banned for it, so I suppose I can't really find it again.

I made another account in 2011 and kept playing on that one, I suppose.

Memories: I remember getting some really rich guy banned for swearing at me, and he later found me on MSN, and told his dad.

I laughed for days at that.

[Northquake]

Joined habbo through my sister, first knew of it from friends in 2002, but didn't bother.

Ended up getting into the game a-lot and then went onto enjoy hxf.

majority of my first year or two on habbo was to scam everybody and everyone. i dont care who judges, I wanted furni and there was so many idiots who were willing to give up passwords or furni for ''free'' credits.

Also best memorie was having a group of friends running a fifa team, really cool when we could play that with z-shelfs and doormats.

Your cousin seems like a nice guy !

I stared in 2005, and nooby of course. My friend got me into Habbo, describing it as a place where people can adopt you lmao... i remember going in a room and asking for a throne, not knowing that it was worth anything, just that I wanted to be a king!

I grew quite well known in Habbo for a short period, until taking a break and upon my return alot had changed and so did people and I wasn't very well known again. I remember winning 'Habbo's longest rollercoaster' room and won a Wii game in real life which I managed to sell for about £20.

Can't really think of many cool things, but i've been around a while and it's been fun. i don't tend to play much more anymore though!

I just wanted to say, this is ridiculous. before early 2011, you have always been a fan-boy child on Habbo. Very annoying and reminded (the very little) who actually knew you to be very annoying, judgemental and full of yourself.
