Habbo turkey release date announced

[atpeak]

People will go for generic names they believe to be Turkish. Words like Hello are universal too. I guess some of the best names for the Turkish hotel will be: Habbo, Bobba, Hello, Kebab, Hi, Merhaba and then any one character names such as '!' or what have you.

Yep lol. One characters are disallowed these days aren't they though

Through special promos, like the Brazilian hotel.

e.g.

Buy Habbo credits this way, and you will get a special "Throne", buy 12 months of Habbo Club and get a Dino egg!

I signed up way back when it first became available. Wonder how a trading economy will be set up?

Don't be silly, why will bobba be rare? Nor will Kebab (it's spelt kebap in Turkish) or hi and hello.

@atpeak; I didn't say anything asking about the release of rares, so I don't know how my question was "nooby". I was asking about how things like the marketplace would get averaged out and if people would just trade things at the catalogue prices, or how values would be affected once people started selling in their shops.

If you were capable of reading you would have seen that I have discussed it will be predominantly .com users who populate this hotel. People will get kebab trying to be hilarious and bobba is self-explanatory for an existing Habbo userbase (which is their target audience). I can speak Turkish relatively well and it's very common for people in Turkey to say Hi to greet one another - not as much hello but hello is the top most recognised word in the world.

Trust me, I'd know !

And perhaps if you were capable of engaging in intelligent debate you wouldn't have to resort to aggressive and snide comments as a substitute for reasoned argument. For the record, I read and understood your post perfectly well, you insinuating otherwise is not going to intimidate me into leaving your opinions unchallenged (as you no doubt hoped they would be).

Habbo Turkey's target audience are young Turkophones. Your assertion to the contrary is ridiculous. They are not targeting this new hotel at an already existing userbase of habbos, that makes absolutely no sense. Why would they, what possible motive can there be to open a new hotel for users who already have their own hotel, and who can not speak the local language? After the initial hype has worn off, no .com users will remain active on the Turkish habbo.

Bobba will not be rare because the language filter in which 'bobba' was used no longer exists. Turkish habbos using the new Turkish habbo will have had no experience of the old filter and thus no reason to think 'bobba' rare, or even associate it with habbo at all.

Whether or not 'hello' and 'hi' are in common use in colloquial Turkish is irrelevant, they do not officially exist in written Turkish. Certainly one could say hello in Turkish, in the same way an English person can greet someone with salut or aloha - but it is not popular custom and as such there can be no reason to suppose young Turks will consider them 'rare' account names.

To be honest though, the targets audience is turkey, but that still wont stop other people such as those who speak English Registering, If anything it would only make it more popular for the hotel till it gets a large turkish fan base,

Plus habbo did make the promotion room for every hotel to announce the turkish hotel,
