Playing Habbo as an Adult (18+)?

[iFlame]

I don't agree with 18+ people playing with habbo, but if they are not causing any harm then why should they be stopped really..

I don't see the harm in over 18s going on Habbo, dont think its as bad as some people make out, especially when its just for like talking to people and seeing the latest updates (or hosting the odd game etc haha). Its not doing any harm really if they are sensible and I guess its quite nice for different age groups to mix sometimes and different generations to interact!

Unless I have the wrong end of the stick, it seems like you're implying that many 18+ users would have some sort of ulterior motive or are perhaps just "sad". There's no upper age limit (being aimed at teens isn't the same thing as being exclusive for teens) and if someone is honest about their age and generally sticks to people closer to their own age group, I don't really see the harm. I do remember when I played years ago there was always a bit of a stigma towards older players, though, especially for those over the age of about 21 although I knew a handful (even became good friends with one) and there was a 26 year old who was slagged off like hell for it (she actually still plays I think, this was in '07). Was just looking to see how much this may have changed in recent times.

If you haven't gathered already, the majority of Habbox users are 18+ -- so perhaps you should stay on here and post around and get involved with the community -wink wink-

But yeah, on a serious note, as most people have mentioned there are more 18+ users playing than you actually think. Just look around and you'll find a few

What exactly are for grounds for this opinion? Many of us have spent money on Habbo, why should we leave simply because we've passed the age of 18? I would imagine many of the players are actually this age now, as noted, many Habbox users certainly are. I wonder if you will cease to play Habbo when you turn 18? As you said, most of us aren't causing any harm (I'm not going to say all, because obviously a very, very small minority of adult players have caused harm, but they're largely (I would imagine) people who joined Habbo solely to commit those crimes, as opposed to those of us who started playing in our teens).

I'm 19, started playing habbo in like 2006. I stopped going on here for a while, and I just recently made this new habbo just this past month. I have always loved habbo, and there are a lot of older people who are on here. Like you'd be surprised of how many 18, 19, etc year olds are on here. And I'm not saying that's a bad thing, I'm just showing that lots of us older people go on here because we've been on here for a long time, and we will continue to do so. Like others have stated most of us don't cause any harm, we come on here to see what's going on, what's different, etc. It's a great site to be on.

i don't see a problem with people who are 18+ playing, they're not really any different
