R.I.P. official fansites!

[Jazz]

they need to spell check before they post. 'fanites'

on topic: thats a rubbish idea

[iLogan]

I really don't like this idea.

At the end of the day their aim is to treat all fansites the same and fairly.

I think it seems like they're trying to push fansites away by keeping them happy with sneak peeks, but cutting off any affiliation with them being considered "official". They needed someone whose sole job would be to communicate with fansites: helping to create large fansite events and increase the promotion of them - it seems they're just packing in and going for it alone. It's a shame really.

They do have one guy who is managing fansites around every Habbo Hotel. Fansites are able to provide Jason feedback of the announcement and will adapt anything he thinks is for the best. I believe the Sneak Peak idea is still fantastic.

He said in an e-mail he plans to do nothing with the fansite group, nor remove current official fansite rep's badges.


Sorry, but that isn't "equal treatment for all" and it doesn't remove "official" from fansites. There is still a list of 15 so fansites that are approved by Habbo - there are still Habbos that go around the hotel with an "OFFICIAL FANSITE ADMINISTRATOR" badge. Until those are gone, there will still be official fansites, which makes it unfair for the other sites on the list.

I would suggest if you are a fansite then bring the matter up with him, the more fansites who do then the better chance we have of changing something in regards of the new plans. I also wasn't aware of his plans not do anything with the group or the current ofifcal fansites/rep badges, I was just taking what he said on twitter about making it fair for all.

Oh that's good that they've finally got a member of Habbo Staff primarily dedicated to Fansites. I've been waiting years for them to see the light!

It still seems flawed, and not thought out enough.. It doesn't help any of us gain members, does it?

That layout looks so nice but omg can't get over the even uglier info stand. All nice apart from that. Also where is the console :S
