NSPCC are for the child audience, teenagers of which also come into that and are one of the main targets for the NSPCC therefore wouldn't it make sense for the NSPCC to come to a large, popular chat room where you would find a variety of teenagers with their seperate problems. I think it is good that NSPCC are coming to the hotel yet again, but really there should be a sort of department for Habbo Hotel in NSPCC or to be more general, the teenage MMOCC market. Many people will benefit from the NSPCC's latest visit, Habbo partially as it is advertisement and promotion for themselves and of course, for the teenagers who did not get a say in the last NSPCC visit.

I just hope that the NSPCC use their resources within Habbo to full effect so that most of the teenagers which did not get a chance to speak their minds on the last visit, get to do so on the NSPCC's 2nd outing. Good on Sulake for being aware of child abuse and trying to sponsor it by using their main product, Habbo Hotel.

As for the celebrity ambassadors part, I guess thats a benefit for the people who go onto Habbo Hotel who do not want to contact NSPCC, but they just want to meet their idols. I cant remember who the ambassadors were but I do remember that Rio Ferdinand may have been one of them, unless I'm thinking of a different campaign. Imagine that, Rio Ferdinand in Habbo Hotel.

One thing which is circulating my mind is this question, why haven't Sulake contacted CEOP (Child Explotation and Online Protection) Centre to come onto the hotel to promote the already well-known (by safety sponsors) campaign, ThinkuKnow. That has really shocked me to say the least! Well, good move Sulake on the NSPCC and fantastic article by the BBC and last but not least, +rep for Antony for reporting this news.
