    Default Habbo On EBAY! Cool/Funny Idea

    People that are selling stuff Illeagaly on ebay, have come up with a new idea, here it is:

    "Please note you are paying for my help with any questions you may have and the item is a free gift.

    I will need to know your habbo name and a room that has rites so anybody can drop items.


    Many Thanks "

    Apperantly you are not paying for the Item (In this case a petal) but for the Help and effort, also another one
    ive seen is paying for a joke then getting a hc as a free gift.


    It isnt illegal as your not selling the item (Methephorically)(SP?) Ebay are happy with it, but Sulake are fuming.

    technically your furni isnt actually your furni, it may be on your account but its still belongs to to Sulake and if you sell on ebay youre selling their pixelated property without their permission

    Well around here things do need to be told and re-told in as many different ways as possible, and you still get that jackass who starts ranting for half a page when he's completely misunderstood the topic of conversation. I swear most of you are under 12.

    Especially when people start a thread about something on a maturer scale of things i.e. Habbo development or economy, and you get some people retorting with either the classic no brainer: "What der hell is you on about m8 I dnt get u." or the more in depth verbal diarrhoea spouting dork: "Well I tink dat Habbo ecinomy is doin wel, seein as lods of ppl are able to trade der furnis."

    Then there's the jerks that use any post as an excuse to rant about the other people on the forum being idiots. I love those guys. Oh yeah.

    Wow, N!ckG actually used a whole punctuation point in this ramble. Usually he just blabbers on and on without a single comma or full stop anywhere i mean he really should learn to use them because the quality of someones typing affects how people view them on an intellectual level even if its suubconcious dont you agree nick

    Ooh, I am being a jerk today. It feels like a be-a-jerk day though. Come on, someone else post rubbish, I need the rush.

    If youre going to be picky subconcious is spelt with one u, not 2
    Who cares about punctuation? its still readable isnt it? More readable than those you gave examples of above
    Also youre going the right way to get a lot of -rep today, just a heads up

    Actually they are still selling off furniture, but as a free gift when you buy their so called 'help.' I suppose they can sell help, if you can sell air guitars on eBay, you can sell Help aswell... Even if they do demolish the word help. How is buying something helping you? They are not helping you, they are just finding a short cut into getting money for virtual furniture. You cannot say they are helping you to make a Habbo room or get rich as that would be deemed rediculous...

    I do disagree about spelling show intelligence, I know someone who is really intelligent and has dyslexia which makes it hard for him to spell. He is really intelligent though, excellent at Philosophy and Computer related things. I normally don't care about how someone spells. I find the fact that they are getting their point across and it is maybe a tiny bit easy to read good enough, you can get some good comments from bad spellers on this forum.

    Well seeing as I type extremely well using proper punctuation and proper grammar each and every day, all day, I am allowed on occasion to make a mistake. I'd say about 2 errors a day. If the same ratio were applied to you, you would have to make -23534787 mistakes a day just to catch me up.

    Who cares about punctuation? Well anyone who cares about the future really. Every time I see a kid who thinks he's a walking encyclopedia cover everyone in fecal matter from voicing his opinion, I want to kill him. Every time I hear some idiot saying "ROFL" or "LOL" out loud in public, I want to kill him. Just think what the future will be like with all you jerks growing up and not going into science or teaching, or doing anything to benefit mankind. We'll have a world full of mechanics and supermarket checkout girls, and no cars or supermarkets, because nobody would have the brains to manage them. That's why people care about punctuation. Intelligence.

    I deem -Rep an honour if I know I got it from being right. A death at the hand of martyrs whom you've stood against, is a death earned.

    Nor do you need to spell to use a computer, make a car or get a career in science... You could say you need to know how to spell to read something, but reading and spelling are completely different...
