    I hate it hate it hate it, and this is true : DONT ASK FOR REP dont have I rep you back in your signitures, and random repping is not allowed because repping is for good posts" say the admins, now they let you buy rep ! PATHETIC.

    I guess it does defeat the fact that earning rep would be pointless when you can buy it. Rep is about earning your reputation, you could be a complete idiot and still have a good rep.
    However, HabboxForum is a small buisiness, they have to make there money in order to keep the site alive, keep it safe for there members, making money for that I think is perfectley normal.

    V.I.P is there if you want it, you don't have to buy it, people choose to buy it for the added features you get with it.
    The rep system could be changed and it would then suit alot of members, there reputation would only suit them as a member, earning it would be more exciting :p

    Well i'm certain will buy them selves some reps, but i wouldn't as i think it should be earned. I think habbox earn enough from VIPs anyway but it's always good to have a little extra on the side.

    Get your facts right...
    The money does not go to anyone, it goes into the Habbox Paypal account where it is used to pay for all the hosting/domains/expenses.
    Habbox has:
    www.habboxtv.com
    www.habbox.com
    www.habboxforum.com
    www.habboxforum.us
    www.habbox.us
    www.habboxlive.com
    www.habboxcanda.com

    Now try to imagine how much bandwith this forum uses just on its own...if you saw how much you would be gobsmacked - and the more bandwidth you have there more the hosting costs
    So do you really think we can use the money to go out buying furniture for ourselves?

    Maybe instead of jumping to the first thing that comes to your head...actually try asking me or seacat why we set it up.

    And we set up buy rep because lots of old vips and new vips have asked y cant they buy rep.

    If we wanted money then we would open it to the whole of the forum not just to 300/15000
