Taking a a moment to appreciate how much has happened in @HabboOrigins the past few weeks and months. The pace of development has been nothing short of extraordinary. New features, new ways to play, a rebuilt client, deep events, improvements and fixes. We have seen a level of activity that feels unprecedented in Habbos history. With that pace comes an increased expectation and I think it’s worth remembering at this speed, nothing will be 100% perfect. There will be bugs. Things will break. Not every decision will be popular and not every issue will be solved overnight (though they often are!). We are in the middle of half term, and heading towards Christmas and we as a community should give grace; @SulakeDominic and the team behind the game deserve downtime and rest with their loved ones. Constructive criticism is essential and holding the game to a high standard is caring about its future. But we can and about do that with kindness, patience and a little grace. We can be passionate without being hostile. Disappointed without being disrespectful. And we can appreciate the progress being made while still wanting even more improvements and features.

Thank you everyone who took a moment to wish me a happy birthday or drop a Habbo gift. Feeling very grateful!! It turns out despite creating sites for so many projects, I’ve never had my OWN site! Thanks @HabboIcing for the domain and hosting- pushing me to launch a V0.5 of originsmatthew.com ! Stop by!

i'll admit while i loved the pixel art, the concept of this weeks rare didn't resonate with me. BUT it does pair well with the glukko tubmaster!!! @HabboOrigins
