Whole Habbo economy is based on gambling. People buy credits cos they are addicted to gambling. They will see a decline in their profits the next months.

Should of seen a decline from late '10, but those rare prices, trading and casino kept its community afloat. This is how you put a nail in your coffin. Take out the core.

Habbo are milking the little kiddies as much as they can, and once they accumulate enough funds
they shall buy this

I just want to laugh very evil to this.

**Tha** · 11-04-14

This is shit. Is this te way to get more money and players? No. This way people will leave Habbo and Habbo will earn less.
Good job Sulake... you've done so the right thing (sarcasm)

**Clawed** · 12-04-14

From reading this I'm glad to say that I spent my teenage years ripping sulake of with retros, they have just dug there own grave, I mean come on, Habbo's whole economy revolves around casinos and betting!!!!!
Well like I seen in this thread, the roll a 6 scam will come back in, I know quiet a lot of people that made a load of thrones, dines, bird baths etc etc from that scam, then change accounts!!!
Sulakes just made more database account spam for there selfs!

Dumb ass sulake!

**TheJacob** · 13-04-14

This is an interesting move by Sulake.

**FatalLulz** · 13-04-14

Seeing how we can't gamble our Habbo credits, let's gamble then on here.

So, I'm betting 5c habbo drops to as low as 1k peak users within the next 3 months, and also have 8c going that Habbo brings back TV advertisement. I noticed browsing a lot of sites now regarding online things such as latest news updates for console games, YouTube, few other forums even the findretros, you can find Habbo's ad. But what's next? They need to do something. They're not going to close Habbo, but then they're not going to let it fall apart.

You can only have a limit of 3 randomize elements in your room, else they get blocked and are only for decoration.

Gambling without a official licenses is illegal so that might have pushed them to block this.

Think this is a bad move for habbo

Can you blame them though? It's not like they can go get licenses because regardless, under-age gambling is also illegal. So, even if they did get a gambling license, they would need you to be a certain age depending on the country you are in. The amount of work that it would take to do this legally would be annoying and wasteful. In truth, for most users, it is gambling because they have something to lose. Most users paid for the coins to get the furni that they are gambling in the game. Kids need to stop complaining already. Find a different way to scam kids because in truth that's really all it ever amounted too anyway.

Habbo's motto should have always been, "Scam or be scammed."

I'm guessing the law is involved with this big step forward.

Yea exactly what i thought, this dates back to people's furni getting stolen a few years back etc etc, something has been done about it now.

**Hejula** · 25-04-14

I really don't think it was because of legal pressure. Gambling in Habbo hasn't been a problem for the past 14 years so why would it all of a sudden be an issue? Them banning it to get a low age rating on the app store sounds like the most likely thing.
