    Default Reporting your friend via CFH

    Just noticed this was uploaded to Habbo.com's texts earlier.

    help.cfh.unfriend.confirm.message=The user you are reporting is your friend. If you continue, they will be removed from your friend list.
    It seems that if you report a friend, it will remove them from your friends list, thoughts?

    O_o hmmm this is a bit odd. I don't get if you report someone on your 'f/l' they need to get removed.
    unless its built for people adding peeps then talking sexual to a user; then the user reports and auto removes them for safety?
    I wonder if the user will be blocked to add each other again? :S

    Creates a bit of an awkward moment when you get a 2 hour ban, log back in to find one of your friends is no longer on your list? It's most likely aimed at the younger audience who are targeted online.

    I think it's a brilliant strategy to improve on safety.

    You also have to ask yourself, how often do you actually report your TRUE and REAL friends? Often times you're sitting right there with them doing some sort of shenanigans. If you're reporting someone your friends with, chances are you're not really friends.

    My thoughts exactly.. I swear other 'kid' online games already do this like; Musie monsters and club penguin. I would not be surprised if they have pretty much copied their services and made it into a kids game rather a teenager game.

    Also, I know some of the employees that work for the sites that you mentioned. They cater to "tweens and teens" so this type of safety strategy is actually becoming industry standard. The same can be said about Facebook, they do the same exact thing and they cater to a much larger audience.

    Makes sense, if a friend is doing something inappropriate you don't really want/shouldn't really have them on your f/l...

    When you report someone it lets you tick/untick the "Block this person?" box. Maybe Habbo should do this instead of automatic? Some people may want the choice but I do agree with @lawrawrrr, if you report someone on your friends list, should they be there in the first place?

    The fact that you like this idea makes me believe you report your friends

    The only reason I'm guessing it is automatic is because younger people are more likely to add someone to their list and get targeted over the IM feature, and therefore a removal from the friends list on report would be logical.
