What did you do on Habbo?

[Mikey94]

You bunch of absolute rebels, I never used casinos I was always too scared of losing what tiny amount of furni I had. I did play the old "football" game before pathfinding and walkthrough changes broke it, good timezzz

What one did you play? There were three.

FIFA which was the original one and then PES came along. Both were so fun, me and my school friends would play it everyday after school and keep track of our appearances and goals in our Habbo motto. The third game mode was EF (English Football) was an ok Game, not many people played it as the rule was to sit on a pod (the football) and move it and try score on the rollers, trouble was the room host had to give everyone rights to move the pod and most rooms got trashed.

When I first joined I owned a really popular WWE place where we did roleplay, hence my Habbo name.

Then I got into trading, which led me to opening one of the first popular large trade rooms, T R A D E | A W A Y. I used to browse Habbox and the Forum itself for new furniture and values, but hadn't yet signed up - that is until the day the then-Habbox General Manager 8Freak8 appeared in my room to say he and sierk wanted to sponsor my room on Habbox Rare Values. As a result, I decided to sign up to the forum and within two months I had joined the Rare Values Department under Smiddy1234 as then-manager. By the end of the year (2006), I was Rare Values Manager replacing Mit. I remember being told then that it was the fastest anyone had ever gone from signing up/being junior staff to becoming manager.

So for much of my time on Habbo, I was mainly a trader although this gave way more and more to work on/for Habbox rather than trading much myself. I always prided myself on the fact I had a great network of "Del Boy"-like traders (the common people if you like) who kept me in the know with valuations, rather than slimy wealthy Habbos like casino owners who used to befriend me as a way to try and spread false rumours to get values to rise/fall to benefit themselves. I almost always had sources who would expose what they were up to and tell me which rumours were true, who'd really bought what and all the trading gossip. Great days.

Joined in 2002 and spent pretty much all of my time working in various help centres and help desks until they eventually died off in the 2010s. At some point in 2010 I started building a fairly comprehensive Habbo furniture museum with a few of my friends, which I kept up until I stopped playing regularly in about 2017. During the first lockdown I decided to sell up.

OMG. I remember these, I was a champion on one person's server and remember making an ECW one back in 2007-08ish, I remember getting hate because I wanted it realistic and WWE ECW only had one title and the fellow role players wanted more.
