    Whilst that's true, nothing stops them removing us from the official list.
    Habbox suvived perfectly when not being official.

    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.
    We could get users to 'donate' and users that donate strangely get a colourful usertitle!

    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.
    No they can't, no images have copyright acts on them.

    All habbo could say is:

    'Habbox are not paying us, to make money.'

    I can't imagine Habbox raising enough money from clicking the Gaydar advert, I wouldn't modify anything personally and just generally debate with Habbo over the issue.

    This is totally ridiculous. Who cares if Habbox is official or not if it means getting rid of VIP.

    This to me sounds like Sulake is scared of fansites taking their business, so they're trying to make a monopoly.
    I'm not crazy, ask my toaster.

    It's an unfair monopoly, because Habbox needs the VIP money to pay for the domains, server, vb license and other expenses.

    As others have said I think this is pathetic to be honest, if I didn't buy VIP on here I wouldn't be spending the money on Habbo I'd be keeping it - I don't see how they think people will spend money on Habbo if they do not buy VIP on fansites etc. I would also rather Habbox not be offical than for them to stop selling VIP... I don't understand how they expect the costs to be paid without selling it. Ad clicks are useless, I never click ads on this site like 95% of this forum.

    This is crazy!

    Habbo are too selfish to see beyond fansites! VIP is the best and they can't take that away from me...[I don't have it but still..] It's pretty annoying. Lets all "donate" instead. =]
