    HA = Sarcastic laugh
    BBO abbrivation stands for = Being Bored Online.

    Guessing they're like " HA, YOU WON'T BE BORED ONLINE WHEN U PLAY HABBO!"

    The only thing that really comes up is that it means "Online community/game" - So I could assume that it's a custom-thought name!

    Good guesses haha, the word itself doesn't mean anything but Joseph his answer is the best explanation.

    I think it's a Finnish word? Not sure though. I put it through a translator and nothing.

    Probably just a word that Aapo and Sampo made up. :P

    Sulake is fuse or fusaki or something so it's something with a meaning as well obviously but that never was really clear.
