    Well I've studied that sentence word for word and all I see is it saying "You cannot charge users for anything". I believe they're basically trying to say that everything has to be free.

    They can not go around tellnig other websites what to do, unless it says in there copyright act that you can't.

    Nothing about the fansite thing, but obviously the reproduction of stuff is there:

    Unless they want to pay the bill for the server then I don't think Habbox will be removing VIP services any time soon.

    Habbo just wanting less money spent on fansites and more being spent on them.

    Yes they do.

    There is 100% NO WAY, habbo can force habbox not to sell VIP.

    The rule about fansites not being allowed to charge for VIP, doesn't matter Dom.

    Whilst that's true, nothing stops them removing us from the official list.

    "Charge users for premium services such as VIP access."

    What about donations? It's the only thing I can see that gets round it. People just donate. Kinda crap really but more ads and donations is the only way I can think of atm.

    It's not just that. If they wanted to, Habbo could close Habbox for breach of copyright.

    For example, if Habbox don't comply then Habbo can say "oh well, you're using copyrighted images on your page without permission" or they'd find some loophole and then get the site closed.

    They could force Habbox to not be called a habbo fansite and stop them from using habbo images though :p
    The other day I was in a toilet.
    A voice came from the cubicle next to me: "Hello mate, how are you doing?"
    I didn't want to be rude, so I said, "Not too bad, thanks."
    I heard the voice again. "So, what are you up to?"
    Again I answered, "Just having a quick ****... How about yourself?"
    Then I heard him say "Sorry, mate, I'll have to call you back. I've got some **** in the cubicle next to me answering everything I say."
