[QUOTE="Navigation, post: 81384, member: 12964"] Sup guys. Well this is a basic tutorial/guide on how to keep/maintain a successful Habbo Retro. I've seen many of a people ask the basic question this is an answer to. 'How do I keep my retro up?' Or something similar to that, so I'm here with a little something, I've experienced/seen up's/down's of Retro's that have been successful over the past few months I've been playing. I've searched for something like this, and there wasn't so I thought 'Why not? It's 03:00am GMT, and I'm online.' So yeah, if you disagree to this then please post, it's just my basic opinion, not a 'You have to do this to have a successful retro' guide. [B]Staff[/B].
