When do you think Habbo will close?

[Nick]

Alright i just have this question going through my head everyday. Since habbo has started back in 2000 or 2002 and habbo is still around in 2011 so thats 10-11 years like done you think it would close one day?

My opinion, I hope habbo doesnt close soon because i have only gotten about 2 years out of it and this year and 2010 i have gotten the most of out the game because i was used to it after habbo changed to beta and i knew the game well, Got a bunch of friends etc.

What do you think??

I think it will only close when it has either lost it's purpose i.e not brining 'joy' and 'excitement' to teenagers.
When it gets closed for being a rip off site whose only aim is to make money.
Or when it no longer makes money.

I don't wish for it to close at the moment, also I doubt it will for a fair while as it makes a lot of income for the business.

mhm , My 10 year old brother came to me yesterday and watched me play habbo for a bit lol and then he wanted to play so i let him have ago of my account and then he wanted his own so he got his own and i said how do you like it and he says "its awesome" Soo in the future they will deffenetly get more money and wont go down with all the young kids growing into teenagers.

Yeah also as technology is more advanced and there is a more wider range of it today a lot of young teenagers/children get laptops, computers etc on a wim/birthday/christmas etc so more younger people will play like you said.

[Nick]

Yea and then they will get familiar with the game and start spending money on the game like you said lol

It's not at the end of it's product life-cycle, they are making more profits than ever before. I can't see it closing any time in the near future.

Im guessing one of the porfits were changing the credits from 1c for 1c to 1c for 2c?

All these little things add towards it but its more members and lots of regular new furni, meaning people spend/buy more credits to get these new furni, whereas before, new furni was rare.

New furni is rare though if it comes for a limited time?

One of the reasons, however there are many more. Also this just came as a result of a bad business decision by sulake which we all know as the exchange.

You'e missing his point here slightly, new furniture used to come out far less frequently than it does now. Now theres so many different kinds of furniture coming out so frequently in the hotel that people buy creds more often to get it.
