Is it me or has everyone noticed how commericialised habbo has got?

I mean, I've been on habbo for a while now and I bet some people have been on habbo longer than me too.
When habbo was like in 2005 it just used to be like an average chatroom where you could chat and make new friends.
In the last few years I've noticed everyones mad about getting credits and I have to admit that was what I was doing at one point :S , But there is loads of scamming and all that and sulake themselves are making habbo very commercialised by not just having HC, but VIP aswell! I think how much money you have to pay for about 35 credits on the home phone or mobile phone is disgraceful. The habbo I used to play wasnt all about furni and credits, it was just a cool place online where you could hang out with your buddys.
I miss old habbo.

[Caution]

That's why I don't play, when they started bringing in homepage's and buying coins from the catalogue and everything it changed too much for me.

I know habbo soo sucks now. I go on it briefly just to see whats going on really and when I'm listening to Habbox I go on but apart from that I just hate going on it now.

It's evolved, and users who liked the simplicity don't like it now. Like me

I too liked the old Habbo very much, and in many ways it was far better than the modern Habbo. But, I really enjoy making free credits and furni, not from scamming, but from Casinos - Betting & dealing. I quite like the way credits has been introduced, it's sort of like a currency even more than HCs ever were, and they can get you pretty much anything, so earning them is satisfying.

I just logged onto habbo for the first time in forever, and this forum infact as well, what the hell?

UK is now .COM or something? and none of my photos show in my memory room. what a load of ****!

Sulake basically want to modernize their product and make it similar to other social networking sites such as facebook. It's just a shame they fail bad at it... They tried to fix something that didn't need to be fixed.

Yes, Habbo merge all the english hotels, and the photos was deleted because had a security hole

Habbo UK was originally on the .com URL but was moved to .co.uk when the American hotel was introduced so we're back to the old days in that sense.

Sulake seems to be only caring about the money now, throwing aside their players.
The merge was just to save money, I mean come on, merging 5 hotels together, hardly just to bring countries together, is it? Obviously to stop some kind of loss of money...
Homepages, well you need credits to design them so like...
Exchange - Starting to charge to change your credits, like seriously?
