Right, the little last.fm widget on the Habbo UK group page shows what people in the Habbo office have been playing, now going on today I realaised they've been listening to a song with explicit language in the song title, which is fine, but surely they shouldn't listen to it on Last.fm knowing that it's going to appear on the group page. Why bother making suck a big deal out of covering up swearing when the just go and put that on one of the msot visited grou pages on Habbo UK.
Just thought it was a bit bad to be contradicting themselves over one of Habbo's highest policies.

Lol at the noobs on the guestbook... Anyway, I know what you mean the staff make a big deal about harassment and then this song is on their group page!? As you said they're entitled to listen to it but why when they know it will appear on their group page... Mystery really. But it's just funny to imagine the staff listening to that lool.

What do you expect them to listen to? That Habbo theme tune on loop all day, or maybe some trax music in the office?
It is targeted at teens and theres even an option to turn the filter off in the client, so it's not like it's that much of a big deal.

It's just them listening to it at the office or home. They can listen to whatever they like but lastfm just keeps a record of it. If you have a problem with it then don't look at it...

I actually agree with you to an extent. There are young people who play and just because there is a filter option, not everyone has trigged it so that argument is evidently flawed. Sure, I don't expect them not to listen to the song because of the explicit language but to expose such languages to such masses of teenagers isn't right in my opinion.

Yeah, its not like last.fm is the only way to listen to music, and they are well aware that the songs are going to be published on the group page, so just listen to the on a website that isnt going to make you contradict yourself.

Meh, the franchise is aimed at teens and people swear before then so not too fussed. I don't expect people to listen to censored stuff, let them be human.

All I ever listen to is Trax!
