In regards to this new banning thing.

[-Xiangu-]

Because I honestly think this is just another way to silence members who disagree with Management.

its just management trying to make the forum better for everyone. if you dont advertise your forum daying its better than hxf all the time then you wont get banned. its just polite not to continuously brag about another forum

if you dislike the managfement then leave

Its not a new rule its just getting tougher on the trouble causers from what I understand which is good.

Then why have Management called it a new rule? Again, Habbox have made a rule which pretty much exists already...

Well in some ways it is and in some ways it isn't. Depends at how you look at the situation. In my opinion it's a new rule - anyone with constant negative posts on the forum about Habbox will be banned (before this never happened). Some users were here solely to complain and never used the forum for what it offers. The same users also used to promote their own forum saying its better than Habbox etc. Those type of members are no longer welcome at Habbox. If we feel a member is here for those reasons, he/she will be banned.

This does not mean in anyway we no longer want people to complain about problems etc. Does not mean that at all. If people are using Habbox properly and find something annoying - then sure they can complain and give us constructive feedback about it. No-one can find everything annoying and find all the staff annoying and everything we do annoying. If that was the case, why are they here? Its obvious they are here to cause trouble.

Also new users sometimes sign up and straight away (sometimes even their first post!) post in the feedback forum complaining - that, again, obviously shows they are here solely to complain and take the mick out of staff and Habbox services.

It all fits in with the spam rules. You don't need to create multiple rules which are based around pointless posting. Just go to the ACP, edit the rules and state in the spam/pointless posting rules "It is not allowed to solely spam the feeback forum with complaints" or something along those lines.

Here is sierks policy:

"However we will be stricter with members that are ONLY causing trouble all the time, for example by repeatedly complaining about specific members, repeatedly making complaints without good argumentation, being rude all the time, repeatedly advertising other websites and repeatedly saying they are better than this forum, etcetera."

Complaining about members = Is sat snugly in rule "Do not bully other forum members." Because bullying can consist of repeatdly complaining about them with no real reason. If there was a reason, you would look into it.

Making continuous complaints without a good argument = Fits in with pointless spam, posts. They obviously have no reason behind them if they will get banned, so they would fit in with pointless posts, because they are pointless to the forum.

Being rude all the time = If swearing is involved, it will come under the swearing rule and the rest would fit in with the "don't be offensive" rule which is in rule A1.

Repeatedly advertisng = Spam / Pointless posting.

Also, I suggest you get rid of 'respect other peoples views' in rule A1, because if you didn't want such complaints you would respect these peoples views on Habbox and see what can be done, and PM the members accordingly or make an announcement in the feedback forum. Keeping it now kinda contradicts you...

Interesting that as soon as someone sides with the management, they're called a suck-up.

I really don't see this as a new rule exactly, more as them letting everyone know in advance that certain rules will be enforced more strictly from now on.

So your saying that because I think HABBOS.NET is much better than HabboxForum and I'm advertising it (Click here to go to Habbos.net it's better!) then I'm no longer welcome at HabboxForum and will be banned... God I'm speechless you could make such a silly rule. Mind you I suppose you want me to be speechless if I'm advertising a certain HABBOS.NET which is better than HabboxForum?
