Habbox Forum Ban Review

[The Don]

Hey, I'm glad that Habbox is actually doing something about past bans and maybe removing them, however I feel that Habbox should send a mass email to everyone informing them that they may be able to get their accounts unbanned if they fit a criteria as when a lot of people have been banned they don't tend to stay around the forum, well some don't.

I think if you did email everyone informing them of the unbanning then it will bring quite a few more people back as they would have no other means of knowing about the unbanning so I suppose if the email was sent it would increase forum users quite a lot.

EDIT:
Ok, i just checked and an email was sent
But aswell as that, maybe they should advertise it on the main site as if someone's changed email adresses they won't know that you can get unbanned and also maybe doing a few promotional events on habbo would help.

Another thing is that the ban has to be issued before 2009? I think. I think it should be increased to 01/01/2010 as then this could be a fresh slate from then onwards as we are nine months into the year now and some people could see it as unfair that they aren't entitled to being unbanned because of a month or so although this same issue could spring up if the date was changed.

With merging the account's, which name do they keep as it isn't cleared up in the actual thread.

I think it's great Habbox are doing something about the bans though

Thread closed by Hecktix (Assistant General Manager) as it's gone off topic, turned into arguments and is targetting other members.

I personally think it should have been a year (31/10/10) but whatever GM floats their boat! I also agree with the former, +rep for a good suggestion. This may increase the amount of people coming on as I doubt many realise that there could be an unbanning situation for them.

Good idea to be honest - bad news for Jake though I think?

Is that the entire review for this week? Gutted if it is

ooh even better?!?!?!

and yes, I think it is but it's good that HabboxForum is reviewing the situation.

Just because they're reviewing the situation doesn't necessarily mean every single member will be banned. I expect a very small number to be unbanned.

I hope not every member is banned!

To be fair, unbanning anyone is a kind thing to do so..

I'm simply saying in the time I've been here, Habbox Management haven't been ones for admitting they made a mistake. I'll be surprised if Jake was unbanned, like really surprised.

Hence why I say "bad news for Jake though".

I am perfectly aware management don't like to say they have made mistakes, that isn't a hit at management, but it is true (in general).

Well yeah so would I seeing as his other account got banned just a few days ago. And good, I'm sure a lot of them won't get unbanned. Some may believe that some should be unbanned but are not, likely to be good reason from it. They were banned for a reason and I think that unbanning shouldn't be something which is taken on willy nilly
