Gambling Banned
So today they have banned gambling at all hotels
http://www.habbo.com/articles/3170-s...s-games-update //English
http://www.habbo.nl/articles/2399-he...lletjes-update //Dutch
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 habboOriginally Posted by Oak

And they think their users (most of them under 12) will understand this..? Most of them can't even go to the toilet by themself..

Re: Gambling Banned
It was already 'against the rules' to gamble in Habbo SG (before the merge) if I remember right, and still is in the brazillian hotel (different law or something).
I didn't like casino's anyway so I think it's a great new rule, but for Habbo it's a pretty bad move, probably more users will quit because of this rule (yeeh retro's.)

Re: Gambling Banned
There is already many of protests taking place about this. A few users I know of that are people who have been there for years and that play constantly have quit.
From what I gathered, this comes down to Apple not supporting gambling on their apps, so the Habbo for iPad has potentially done this. Nice move Habbo, you've just checkmated yourself.

Re: Gambling Banned
That was exactly what I thought yesterday. But they're really believing that the whole app will work than.. I mean if it doesn't gain any profit or anything, they can't undo this in a while anymore (people who are quitting now, won't come back anymore). It's a pretty big risk..

Re: Gambling Banned
Like I said on the other thread, it was either going to make or break them. As we can see now, it has broken them. Habbo has used up all her pawns, bishops, knights, rooks and now her King has just fallen. With the queen herself still standing, stuck in a now checkmate move, what's her next decision?
What ever it is, it better bloody hell be a good one to save this sinking ship.

Re: Gambling Banned
Well, checkmate means that you are basically screwed. Like Hitler and his last stand. There's maybe one way out of it, but 99% of the time, people can't get out of it. Same thing with Habbo. They've dug the biggest hole and they know it. What are people going to do now? Sit back and watch youtube on it?
