Why are some people addicted to Habbo?

[Simmzay]

It's very, very addictive when you start out. But for the last two years or so (besides scripting) it's just painful to go on - because it's lost its fun element. I'd say for newbies it's probably better for them to start now than when I did, but due to nostalgia we always see the old times appear better.

Habbo isn't all that bad it's just that people lose interest after time and rightfully so. Never saw the point in purchasing credits though.

That probably doesn't answer it... so the answer is: It's an addictive game.

I was so addicted to habbo when it came out, but got booring after a couple months.

People get addicted to Habbo because they want to be something on Habbo they're not on Habbo probably.

I used to be addicted before Diablo-Lou was permed, now i hardly use it and when i do, its either to sell or to talk to friends.

I'll be honest with you, I once was addicted to Habbo but only for one reason and that was because it was the only virtual game on the PC of it's kind. I started in the early stages of 2002 and was addicted for a couple of months, but I wouldn't say I'm addicted anymore I just visit the Hotel from time to time, decorate my group homepages, talk to old friends. I'm not too bothered about furniture as much as I used to be. No I wasn't a loner, Yes I had socialising skills and no I wasn't bullied. That enough information?

I think its a very valid point.
But to be fair, well to Habbo.. They keep bringing out new versions/Furni/games Etc. to keep people addicted.
I don't think Habbo will last forever. So my opinion is just to enjoy it while it lasts.
