How did you find Habbo or Retros

[Examed]

Title speaks for itself, but how did you find Habbo or Retros.

I found about Habbo because I was at my cousin's house and he showed me habbo and forced me to register, then I just started loving it!

I found about Retros in like 2012 when my cousin (same one) was at my house and told me about Fresh & Zap.

I found retros when my older sister was playing it for jokes with her friend once and played it ever since, that was like 2006. Honestly, was way too young to understand it at all so I just jumped off the lido 24/7 like some suicidal emo kid. I quit and came back in 2008 and played old Habboon and loved it, that was the last hotel I thoroughly enjoyed playing. Now they suck, but I don't want to quit cause of all the cool people I met from them. Struggle is real, y'know?

Btw I don't mean the current Habboon, I mean Aaron/Shorty's. I can't stand the new one.

Found Habbo in 07 through some of my friends, and through some people I met on Habbo I found retros in 09 - or atleast started with them. @Xylo Know the feeling, bud.

I heard of habbo through my sister and joined it in like June of 07. I started playing habbo retros in late 08 and even was a admin on a popular hotel during the holocms/phpretro days that went by several names CrazyHotel.org/ Legit / Habbo.VG

I found habbo when in 2008, when I was around 9 or 10. I admit, I was wayy to young, i was a noob tbh, asking for furni, and the whole 'e-baby' thing. Lmfao.
I found eubbo in 2011 and I looovedd that. I loved the fact you didn't need to buy credits, you had soo manyy.

I first played at version +- v18
It was actually my neighbour that introduced me to it. I was introduced to retros by advertisers on the real hotel before v26.
I created a fansite for Habbo (with Webs.com LOL) so that introduced me to coding HTML, JS, CSS.
Later I was a DJ at habbos.org (which used to be scandinavia's biggest fansite), while investigating and experimenting with retros.

My first RZ account is from mid-2011 so thats I joined the retro community after lurking around the forums and shutting down my fansite.
That introduced me to back-end programming, and that's when I'm mostly doing now.

I haven't played Habbo for years, and haven't owned a hotel for 2 years now. But I have done small jobs as a technician, programmer etc. since then.
And I am still here, dunno why tbh.

I started playing in around 2008, and somebody asked me if I wanted to get free Habbo credits and linked to Zap Hotel in like 2010 Little to say after that I was hooked.

You only found retros in 2010? Oh you sweet summer child.

 

[Gajeel]

I forgot when I started playing retros but I vividly remember how I knew retros.

I was playing this game called Ninerift (formerly known as Fresbo World). It was dying due to lack of updates and when they did drastic changes by shifting to MMORPG from its original "think and build" tagline. Few users were advertising this new game called Smooth Habbo (which was actually a Habbo retro) and enticing us to join because they had free credits which in Ninerift is a paid currency. They got loads of users from the game and from there, I learned about the real thing which is Habbo.
