[Matthew22]

Hi guys,

I noticed after going on

that the domain has expired.... Does this mean that there is going to be no more blog? Been already 2 weeks and they still haven't renewed their domain. I wonder what is going to happen.

 

[Eronisch]

The site seems to be working fine for me.

 

[Decellor]

i get same message. Maybe they need to renew but its the question will they, that domain is worth a decent amount i imagine

 

[Alozi]

Lol, didn't knew that Habbo had a blog.

 

[Gaby]

I don't understand how it can expire, since blog. is just a subdomain of habbo.com

 

[Joopie]

Most likely the dns server he is using is fucked up

Yeah, maybe blog. is just an alias of another domain. Would be funny is somebody buys that domain after it "really" expires.

When you look in the source, you see:

Sup, Habbo is dying...

Most likely a DNS hick-up... It's not dying or anything just because they had a little blunder.

Nothing to see here, move along.

How could a subdomain expire? It's parent domain is Habbo.com so.. Just applications/software/services for runnig a webblog could expire. They were using wordpress so.

But I don't think they would renew it. It's not really worthed to do that because employees must be paid to maintain it and work costs money and they could better focus on Habbo as game then inform players about their progress behind the scenes which is actually a waste of time?

The blog is good as gone, the blog subdomain now redirects to their main site.

Because the actual blog is

but there is a DNS problem therefore its showing the domain as expired despite it being a subdomain... It's not dying or anything, they're most likely attempting to sort the issue out. There aren't many developers there, you know.

EDITED: It's normally standard procedure for a company to temporarily redirect something if there is a DNS issue.

Now is redirecting. But yesterday wasn't.

Now is redirecting. But yesterday wasn't.

You have to remember that developers have to go against a work flow and all tasks are prioritized based on a matter of urgency.

It's been redirected for a reason, you guys need to stop hyping everything up just because their blog had a DNS hiccup.

They've been watching us deeply

From my end, seems as if the blog is dead with the last post being back in July. And blog.habbo.com is taking too long to respond. Well that's a shame.
