Suelake.com?!
As some people have noticed, suelake.com looks down! And yes, it’s indeed down – for now.
If you don’t know what Suelake.com is, well in short it’s a Habbo Hotel private server running with one of the oldest versions of the Habbo client, dating back to 2002/2003. Mike (office.boy) and me wrote a server from scratch in Java to revive this version of Habbo for people to enjoy. It is truly unique, always up and fully featured, including my PHP frontend site with my own design and without Habbo related/copyrighted images. Suelake is not a Habbo clone, it is there for educational and ‘monumental’ purposes.
Yesterday, Jordan, the guy who hosts me, said that he received an email from Sulake, and even though I haven’t seen it myself, I know it stated stuff about copyright infringement. It kinda makes no sense that Sulake wants to take down Suelake.com – we don’t make any profit, we don’t use their images, we don’t take away their users and so on. Sulake appearantly ignores the ‘high rollers’, the private servers with 500 – 1000 users online, making thousands of euros (yes!) off advertisements and selling ingame properties. These private servers try to emulate the current version of Habbo, taking away alot of their users and potential customers. Yet… they only seem to take action against Suelake.com!
So, what now? We have worked on Suelake.com for a long time and I’m not planning to let it die. There are alot of people out there who enjoy Suelake.com, especially with the new way Sulake is heading to with their product. It doesn’t do any harm to them and I don’t think that it ever will, so we are working on getting it back up somewhere else. All data is backed up, including database, server build (stable, > 12 days uptime) and my PHP website. Sulake either just hates me or isn’t aware of the ‘high rollers’, which seems weird to me as eg, Habbo.co.uk has ~ 5000 users online and there are private servers with 1000 users online…
Anyway, expect more posts on this soon while we work stuff out. Until then, peace.
