    Default Quit in 2003 due to ban, staff won't consider lifting 10 year old ban

    Honestly, I'm not even bothered that my ban wasn't lifted because it's been over a decade. But, I feel like the staff should have at least considered lifting such an old ban on a "veteran" player who invested so much time and money into this game once upon a time.

    12-year-old me received a permanent ban in 2004 for stealing furniture, this was so long ago I can't even remember what I did or if I was actually guilty. However, I contacted staff today to try and reason an unban, because I would love to get back into this game I used to know and love. I received a generic, uninterested reply about how they wouldn't even consider an unban.

    Many of you will probably argue that a ban is a ban and it should stand. But, it seems a shame that they wouldn't even consider lifting a ban from over a decade ago, and not allowing "veteran" players to get back into this once fantastic game.

    Did you actually get a reply saying you won't be unbanned? They usually send an email saying because your ban is older than 6 months they can't do anything.

    One appeal isn't always enough. You need to be persistent and give them reason why you think you have changed over the 10 years. I remember when I was unpermed, I had to tell them what I learnt... Just tell them what they want to hear

    Is this an account ban or an all out ip ban? If it's an account ban surely it would have been deleted during the merge?
    Bonjour, la noirceur, mon vieil ami
    Je suis venu te reparler
    Car une vision piétinante doucement
    A laissé ses graines lorsque je dormais
    Et la vision
    Qui était plantée dans mon cerveau
    Demeure toujours
    Parmi le son du silence

    Account almost certainly doesn't exist any more (or was remade by someone else if it does), happened to both my 2001 accounts

    It still exists. I get the usual permanent ban message when I log in.

    The don't seriously expect me to wait until 2019 for the ban to end do they!

    Yeah they do Thats the idea of the perm ban ;-) Although if Habbo was still open in 2019, with it being a permanent, they'd probably re-ban for the account haha!

    Funnily enough Habbo bans aren't the same as real life prison sentences and many perm ban people have had them lifted
