    Also, there was a whole alien invasion theme during Halloween '06 which lead to the release of the new rare, the Alien Aircraft (Fog Machine)

    And those aliens were known as FRANK. I doubt you lot would remember. There was also a faction called 'Dark Piers' who was fighting to combat FRANK. That however, was invite-only.

    What do you mean by Catalogue Screenshots? I shall at the # section tomorrow, along with those Hobbas in that section i can find. Johno probably won't be added but I'm going to re-think the Staff Page about how some staff are shown - those who have left the 'Habbo Team' and gone on to the 'Sulake Team' and whether or not they should be included.

    Standard X's are on probation for 3 months, not 2.

    colmc is also responsible for X's alongside 0rca

    Otherwise I think it's excellent

    The information given in FAQ on Habbo is very out of date, so not your fault
    I didn't find the eXpert information, blame 088! for that I shall try to update this soon. We felt it would be good to include them on the Staff List, though they are voluntary workers - lets people know who they are, even though it is a bit pointless

Just they're not recognised as such. I'd keep it as it is to avoid too much confusion really. The last X announcement wasn't too long ago, so you could probably search the Habbo archives and retrieve the names to add to it.

    Also to correct you on how Habbo was actually formed, it was Dee Edwards who first thought up the idea of a virtual hotel for members to chat in, and she made the name Habbo and formed a Ltd. for it. I think she publicised it a little, and Sulake took the bait and bought the project seeing the potential in it. I can't remember if Dee & the 2 founders of Sulake were aquainted with eachother during the formation of Habbo Ltd. but I know that Sulake had no part in it for quite some time, until they decided to buy it. She never gave up the company, she just sold the project fully.

    Sulake also purchased IRC Galleria in 2006(?) for a fee. It was the biggest IRC channel in Finland so they thought, OO LETS BUY IT LOLS. =P

    What was the other game they made? MiniFriday was it? MiniMondays? Magic Mondays? I REMEMBER IT SORT OF. It was the mobile version of Habbo...

    http://www.minifriday.com/

    BAM!
    You find lots. I'll look into the thing about Dee Edwards for you, and possibly add the pieces about IRC Galleria and Mini Friday to the general knowledge page but that's mainly for Habbo, not Sulake. There are mentions of other sites they have though, so they shall be added!

    The biggest thing involving the police has to be when sticky666 or whatever he was called was jailed for grooming a 12/13 year old over habbo and then met her in a real life hotel.

    Habbohotel.co.uk was used and then it went to habbohotel.com and then back to habbohotel.co.uk

    If you want to know more about daisy chase up 8freak8. im sure he knows her in real life. Daisy and jibbi did come back doing something for habbo not so long back but not sure what.

    we used to be able to send console messages to the email account registered on habbo but this was removed because scripters could send messages to anybody and not just the people on their lists.

    I remember when you had to click on the furni to trade and then on the person you wanted to trade. if the person had rights for all in their room it was easy for you to drop your furni there by mistake. I am pretty sure it was 1 item for another instead of the trade box but maybe i am dreaming lol

    The aloa vera i didnt think was in the catalogue until it was a 25 cred rare but i do remember habbo saying dont trade for them as they were going to be deleted because they were scripted. after some time they were still about so ppl started trading again and then habbo deleted the lot. They then released the rare aloa vera of today which was much better designed compared to the scripters version.

    The chessboard from the gamehall was scripted and people were trading for them but once you had one unless you were also a scripter you could not trade it on as you got errored without a filter running in a scripting program. You could have these but you couldnt drop them in a room. habbo later deleted them all.

    I will think of a few more bits.
    I had included the piece about the grooming incident but was asked by sierk to remove it.

    Thanks for the info on the domain changes, that shall be updated when I get round to it. I'll add about the send emails from console, not quite sure on the point about the trading. I just went by what was written on the old Habbo Knowledge pages for the Aloe Vera I was convinced you wrote cheeseboard :S I was going to add these images soon, the chessboard, mode column etc.

    and the bit about catalogue history, both images link to the new 1
    thought id let you know
    I will add that to the list then, the catalogue problem has been sorted. Because the images were in the same place they thought it would be funny to link to the same place :@

    Do you know any more information on this? I remember the release of it now because Callie had that room with them that got trashed, but remember nothing of the event leading to it.

    Yeah, it was. #1337 or something. I think. The black one


    Keep the comments and error reports coming in They will all be sorted either tomorrow or through the weekend - my internets slow atm.

    Wow awsome job guys!
    It's a great improvement to the old one which indeed was superb : https://habbox.com/hk.htm

    Anyway a few things,
    I swear it was apparatus and aapo who ran Mobile disco not sampo and Apparatus went onto become the first hotel manager for Habbo Goldfish (.fi) and the temp manager for the UK (Proven by screenshots orignally on the sulake site).

    On the staff page you are missing quite a few Hobbas such as Petardo , karlos101 , Sunshinecutie and others in this group: http://www.habbo.co.uk/groups/4016/id
    You are also forgetting Jokerrr (may have had more r's , not sure) which was the original Hobba account for the current Sulake techie, Johno.

    Also the actual first celebrity hotel visit was by The gorillaz who did a hotel wide tour on almost all the hotels during either 05/06.

    Not sure if it's missing or not but some other events took place were the Always salon comp, The gforce or w/e it was called event where people did' charity events' and Budy ended up winning , The Conextions competitons in January 06 which was a extremely big teleport maze quest and the Habbo talent show which took part last year.

    You may also want to have a section on scripting that took part in the hotel such as the Kutakala furni , aloe vera , pods and so on aswell as talking about Sonicmouse and what happened when Dionysus went onto his account for an Halloween event.

    A bit off-topic but you could make an Habbox history which acutally talks about the Habbox sites and all the staff and so on.

    It might also be worth noting that the always salon badge was the first new badge to be seen since the hobba badge
