LMAO at this answer for my CFH...

[Catzsy]

Yes, but I wasn't talking about what you think, to be brutally honest. It is a forum, so I will respect your opinion, but I was talking about what is. I was talking about the Habbo Way as it stands.

I also took another look at the CFH tool.

Whether or not you think it is right to report someone for swearing, it is against the Habbo Way, and thus if someone is swearing, they can be banned for it. Especially in light of the recent article on bans, in the community section of the site.

When the Ignore tool was introduced, it was (as far as I could understand) never intended to replace bans for those who broke the Habbo Way. If you took the time to read the numerous guides that were in the newsletter about the Ignore button, it gave you a simple number of steps.
1. Ignore the individual.
2. Report the individual.

Two simple steps isn't hard - but now it seems they are wanting to take the second step out. I am asking why. Why remove the emphasis from reporting someone engaging in vulgarity when it is explicitly stated in the "About Bans" article published by the Hotel Manager?

To reiterate: regardless of opinion, it is against the Habbo Way to swear, and stated to be a bannable offence. But why decide that ignoring is a better option? Surely removing the 1 offender will prevent the other 24 people in the room from having the put him on ignore. What if they offender reloads the room? Ignore is a short term fix, but is not the solution. Even banning is a short term solution if they are a general griefer and use accounts purposefully for spamming in rooms, but it is more long term than Ignore.

Edit: I do understand that rather than "baiting" people into breaking the Habbo Way, just to get them banned, you should put them on Ignore. That is common sense which is to be emphasised by this new scheme. However, if someone breaks the Habbo Way in the first place, do you pretend they haven't done anything? It is almost hypocrytical if you look at the number of guides and articles that have been published over the past 4 years, relating to the Habbo Way and bans. If someone is breaking the Habbo Way, which Habbos (and quite possibly their parents) are aware of, why should it be a victim's responsibility to put the offender on Ignore? It should be the Moderator's responsibility to punish the offender. Why should someone leave a room because someone is griefing about them? Okay, let's put them on Ignore. Oh, and they decide to reload room over and over. If you are playing a game in a room, are you going to try and click on their name every time they load, just to click Ignore?

Totally agree with you. + Rep It is Habbo's responsibility to sort out the rule breaking and my view is that the 'ignore' button useful for flooders and thats about all. Anything else of a serious nature should be reported to Habbo.
I wonder if it is Habbo policy or just some of the moderators taking it upon themselves to take the easy way out.
