Welcome to Habboxforum, Keep the Habboxforum rules and you'll be safe :)

General Forum Rules:

A1. Respect other people's views and do not be rude or offensive to anyone - Everyone has different views on different topics, respect their views and never be rude or offensive to anybody else.

A2. Don't swear - It really is as simple as it sounds. The forum filter will substitute the letters of swear words with *-signs. However some words might not have been censored as of yet, and are not suitable on this forum. It is not allowed to try to avoid the swearing filter or to post any swearing that does not come up as ***. Also it is not allowed to use any abbreviations for words that are filtered on this forum, with an exception for LMAO, PMSL and other similar variations which are allowed, even though one of the letters in the word is filtered.

A4. Forum name may be anything at registration - You may register your forum name as anything as long as it doesn't contain swearing or anything else considered unacceptable to management.

A5. Do not post anything that can be considered as being rude or insulting towards people working for Habbox - We don't allow any form of abuse, but are extra sensitive when it comes to abuse to wards Habbox Staff (this includes in reputation comments).

A6. Do not post your or anyone Else's photo anywhere on the forum - The reason for this is yours and others own safety as some people may start stalking you or bothering you in other ways. You are however allowed to post a link to your own picture. You must not embed/attach it on the Forum itself.

A7. Don't pretend to be someone that your not. - It is not allowed to pretend to be somebody that you are not, this includes VIP members using Habbox job titles or similar titles that make them look like Habbox staff. You are not allowed to pretend to be a Habbo staff member or a Habbo moderator either.

A8. Do not pretend to work for Habbox when this is not the case - Don't suggest in any way that you are working for Habbox, not on this forum or on Habbo or anywhere else.

A9. Don't sell or buy Habbo accounts - Because the original owner can always get their old Habbo back with the original email entered when the Habbo was created, it is strictly forbidden to sell or buy Habbo accounts. Trading rares for credits is at your own risk.

A11. Do not name anybody for hacking, scripting, trashing or any other bad things - Because we don't want innocent people being accused of illegal activities, we don't allow accusing others at all. This means it's also NOT allowed to accuse Habbo-X or Habbo Staff of abusing their powers or anything else. Also posting any images of people is NOT proof of them doing anything wrong as it could be an alteration. Even if you do have proof and know its 100% real, it is still not allowed to mention that the person has scammed/hacked etc as this starts arguments.

A12. Do not post any (links to) texts, pictures or websites that contain information that is considered illegal by Habbo Hotel - This means you are not allowed to give any information about scripting, hacking or scamming. Also no screen shots of tools used by Habbo staff like Housekeeping are allowed.

This means it is also not allowed to show comments made by others using the User Reputation system, for example in your signature.

Forum Thread Rules:

C1. Don't post for the sake of your post count - It's always nice to have a high post count, it may seem as though people will respect you more with a higher number beside your name, but it doesn't really mean anything on these forums. We respect each of you whether you have 1 post or 1000.

C2. Don't post short or meaningless messages - We don't want replies like "i dono" or "why" or "yeah". We have set the forum so that any message must contain at least 9 characters, do not try to get around this by adding meaningless characters.

Do not post a message in which you tell another forum member they have broken the forum rules. Don't post a message in which you ask for another forum member to get banned or unbanned. If you think there has been a rule broken, click on the "Report Bad Post" icon at the top right of that post and explain the problem. If your problem is not about one particular post, you can also PM (private message) a Super Moderator with a brief description and some details of the problem (add a link if possible) then he/she will look into it.

C12. Do NOT give pointless reputation - There are many reasons to give good reputation points. The post may have helped you, had been well written or be a very good reply. Giving rep points to others just because its a friend or negative reputation points just because you don't like somebody will not be tolerated. Giving bad reputation points when not called for or without a reason is also not tolerated. Anybody caught doing this may get a big reduction to their rep points or worse!

Trading Rules
1) Do not post comments - Do not react to posts made by others, except by saying if you accept or reject an offer if you are the person who started the thread. The ONLY forum where you are allowed to post comments in the Trading Category is the forum called: "Anything about Trading and Furni". Only post in the other trading forums if you are actually going to offer!

2) Do not post a lower offer than somebody has already posted - If someone has offered Two hc sofas then please do not post an offer, offering one hc sofa!

3) Post your topic in the right forum - Do not post the wrong topic in the wrong forum for example; If you are posting about you selling your throne then post that in the RARE TRADING FORUM or if you want normals for your throne post it in TRADING NORMALS FOR RARES AND RARES FOR NORMALS!

4) Only sell your own furniture and rares do not advertise other peoples furniture - Do not advertise a HC sofa when it doesn’t belong to you if it belongs to your friend as this causes problems. Please tell your friend to register and sell his/her own piece of furniture.

5) Do not post a topic selling an item or looking for an item and then never check the post again - If you post to sell a Plasto chair and then seven people offer and you forget to check your post then this can cause a lot of trouble for people! So please check your post!

6) Do not post more than one thread offering the same furni - If you post to sell a piece of furni then make sure you do not post the same post again offering for the same furni, check back on your first post instead.

3. Do not post gory or vulgar images - This includes lots of blood, real of pixel art and pictures of a sexual nature.
