What Happened to Habbox?

[lawrawrrr]

yessssssssss now we've got a non shitty looking arcade on mountains & universe (working on v7 and dojo shortly) we think it'll be more used!! the site where I used to get games from has gone down though waaah

but tournaments should be easy!

dont forget we're looking for forum staff to help us manage comps and events and stuff so do apply here!!

yeah, i can imagine for the average habbo user who hasn't grown up with forums, that hxf could be seen as pretty daunting and confusing

maybe doing something with the arcade could be nice? i've been playing it a fair bit recently but i seem to be the only one. tournaments and stuff used to be a right laugh back in the day

I've just became gold in Snake. Beat me, sneaky.

The old tournaments were excellent, then less so once everything broke if it's all in working order though that would be an excellent thing to push because it can be done (somewhat) at people's leisure rather than needing everyone to be online at the same time

We can run a competition to promote them too. I’ll try a bit of tetris later.

I'm late to the party with this thread but I just randomly thought I'd check HxF and I found I was the only person online . Its sad, so many good memories on here and on Habbo.

The decline has been going on for years though. I remember years ago we'd get almost weekly 'is Habbox dying threads?' and often people would just seem to brush it under the carpet. Even at that time we were probably getting 5-10x the number of posts that we are now.

I remember when I first became a super moderator (c. 2010 or 2011 I think?), there would be so many new posts to check, continuously, that we could barely keep up, even with 3 of us, and with a further 2 or 3 moderators in each section too! Over the period of a few years it gradually changed to where you would only have to log in once a day or twice a day to do your moderating job. Now it seems we're only getting a few hundred posts a month.

Not criticising anyone, nor do I have any suggestions, I just think its sad what's happened!
