Habbo caught up in child sex scandal / Habbo Mute

[PixelWarning]

Next week.... at the earliest?! You've got to be ******* kidding me. We've been waiting for so long, how much longer are they going to delay this?

The accusations against Sulake/Habbo were very strong. As a result, a lot of mistakes were uncovered and the entire Habbo population took part in contributing ideas that they wanted to see implemented into Habbo through TheGreatUnmute.com. Sulake may oversee Habbo which is a large game, but their staff are only human and they are taking into consideration that they are still under the spotlight of the media and parents. I understand your frustration but in my experience; development of games cannot be rushed. I have worked for two separate games that are similar to Habbo (not retros) and when rushed, things come out very sloppy.

They're not delaying it, they're making sure all of their I's are dotted and T's are crossed -- they cannot afford another slip up.

Don't take this post as an attack, just attempt to understand that they're working as best as they can and they're not holding off to be mean to you or other users. They want their entire Habbo population back just like before and as bad as you do. Patience is key.

Be prepared to wait even longer. Paul said via twitter yesterday that .com won't be unmuted until the Guardian system is ready. In a later tweet his said that THE Guardian system won't be ready for a few weeks. I don't think .com will be unmuted even next week, I think possibly the week after that, if not almost definitely the week after that.

ooooooooooooooooooooooooo

So a prize for putting up with the mute because he's useless at his job? I suppose he will try anything to keep people interested

If he shot a hundred children and was on the run from the police, he would put out a Tweet saying

I'm currently in a hole. I've asked for a prize for everyone who survived my massacre.

Interesting, if this is what he said in the tweet then your estimated times would be about right.

I believe the next sites to be unmuted will be Habbo Spain and Brazil anyways

He didn't say that at all. He later said that graduating to filtered chat would occur with the release of Guardian. This is the second stage of the unmute with the blacklist as opposed to the whiltelist system.

They're already unmuted.

They're already unmuted.

Ow never mind then.

.com will be the last to open anyways

I was thinking filtered chat referred to any form of chat system though I can see how it could mean a blacklist as opposed to whitelist. The thing making me think he's referring to any form of chat is another Tweet he made, in which he said no date had been set for .com yet. As far as I'm aware, the hotels which have already been muted haven't even gotten a chat without the whitelist yet, so I'm certain what Paul means is that .com will only be unmuted in any form until the Guardian system is ready. Still a bit confused though, because as you say, it could be taken another way.
