Habbo Exchange, Change!

I'm hating this too.

On a more productive note, if this is to stay in force, is there any furni in the game which could be used to represent 1 coin pieces the way HC sofas represent X coins? If everyone was to come to an agreement that furni x = 1 coin then trade may be able to continue tax free

Timo Soininen and Juha Hynynen



In the last trading year, they made a profit of $7 million dollars. Don't trust what people say, look at the facts and figures.
Its common sense Sulake wont be making a huge loss. If they were, we would see some radical changes e.g. several hotels shutting down, less staff etc.

Oh and ty for the revenge -REP.

It was NOT a revenge -rep. It was an honestly deserved one.

Back on topic, I imagine some people will continue protesting through this evening. I think the majority of people have given up, as they've seen no instant change.

Of course not, that's why it was removed. There is a difference between facts and opinions. Unfortunately people fail to understand that.

Anyway, no point protesting. It was changed on all hotels. Its very unlikely that it will be reverted. They must have analyzed this in detail before implementing it.

One thing is for sure, Habbo is no longer what it used to be. A lot of the changes since 2007 haven't been great.

Finally, a point we agree on. I joined in 07, it's gone downhill since then.

fgs, what's going on with MMORPG's these days. >.<

I don't think Habbo is a rpg?

Anyway Habbo was amazing until 2006, not 2008 you noobies.

And re-reading my post, I never actually said revenue and profit are the same :S so you are making things up in your head.

Anyway £7.2 million off due to a small change is highly unrealistic. Its obvious :S

And 10,000 people buying credits per week is not even close to the right figure as last time I checked Habbo UK never has more than 10k online at a time ... and thats the most popular hotel (or in the top 3).

Its always good to be realistic and you obviously aren't being in your figures.

You didn't state that profit and revenue are the same but you said my figures were not correct as Sulake only made 2million euro's last year. This figure is defunct as profit gives absolutely no depiction of that years revenue and thus you qouting that figure did in no way make my figure look unrealistic seeing as they are completely unrelated other than the fact that they are sums of money.

7.2million revenue is impossible to make by enforcing a small change? I beg to differ! Penny sweets for instance, 1-2p each yet because of the volume purchased they yield a massive revenue for the companies which provide them.

The hotel has had up to 15k users on at a time, I played habbo from 2002 to 2009 and reaching 11k+ happened quite regular over this course, with popularity obviously dipping up and down. Currently there are 6k players online... do you think the same 6000 users play habbo 24/7? No, users are constantly logging in and out yet the amount of users seems steady at around 6000 meaning people are logging in just as much as the people logging out, now think of how often people log in and out on your friendslist over the duration of your playing time and you will realise the volume of users that log into the hotel during a week is really quite large.

Unfortunately Gupta in the world of statistic's you cannot determine whether someone is being realistic or not until multiple recordings are taken from various sources, so as much as you may say that my estimates are unrealistic, that is just your opinion and nothing more. I posted here with estimates, I never once said they are dead on accurate or should be taken for the truth, I simply game an example of how small things like a 1 credit increase actually benefits a company like Sulake much more than you would think which is why you shouldn't just let it slide.

On a side note: Now I remember why I kept away from these forums. Tunnel Vision is not a good thing, you will probably grow out of it.

This is actually ridiculous sulake is worth millions and millions of pounds i am only worth a fiver! its not fair! If you, like me want to protest about this try joining this group!

Habbo is better now than it ever has been. As a player from 2001 - 2003 I can say that back "then" it was rubbish compared to now. People need to realise that Sulake are a company, they are in it to make money and at the end of the day they are giving away Pixels now which they never did before, they are free!

Remind me again, Pixels are useful how exactly?
