thats not the point.

if their user system looks like the habbo client, then that can come under copyright infringement, whether there is a disclaimer or not

Loads of fansites have similar things to Habbo such as the client. I forget the exact name... bobbanet.com? Well that whole website is based on the Habbo client.

Tletyfe should get something from sulake then :S + He could get sulake sued for closeing hes website. for no reason.

Hmmm..... Tleftye did win the comic competition. Suspicious .

Oj, wd Mr. T :8

Key words: Look Like

Doesn't come under copyright. If it was, then it would be.

When I used to use it, it had a catalogue (but not exactly the same as Habbo) and it had a chatroom area where you just talk like MSN. You could also collect credits and badges from competitions etc.

It was quite cool - and I was loaded on it!

I'm afraid we don't host anything which breaches copyright, so sorry.

You do plageurise alot though.

Seriously all of you! STHU! you know nothing, they wernt shut down cos im on the site now you ignorant phools! they where suspended! that means there is a problem with their hosting! E.G havnt payed bill, or there was an error in their hosting account dont go making shizzel up if you dont know the truth!

Ignorant Phools? ;l

Yes, by 'shut down' there were suspended because sulake suspected they were hosting a retro.
Not because they don't pay the bill.

Get your facts right m8.

Yes, bobbanet.co.uk has something very similar to habbo-works and that used to be owned by Sulake staff and I doubt that's breaching copyright but I'm not entirely sure about the login system.

I'm 100% sure Tom wasn't breaching the copyright agreement as it was hardly similar to Habbo, just the login system and that's it
