THE GREAT HABBO RAID OF '07. Reaction to aids toddler. About Pool’s Closed is a catchphrase associated with a series of raids carried out by Anonymous against the online social networking site Habbo Hotel, where members of the group formed human blockades to obstruct the entry points of popular hangouts with their avatars dressed in afros and business suits.

The first raid was launched in July 2006 after rumors began to spread on 4chan that some Habbo moderators had tendencies to ban users based on the skin colors of their avatars. Origin Sometime in 2006, rumors began to spread on 4chan’s /b/ (random) board that Habbo’s social moderators were prone to racial profiling against dark-skinned avatar users and abusing their ban powers to keep them out of the site.

On July 6th, 2006, a group of 4chan users calling themselves /b/lockers decided to raid Habbo Hotel by forming blockades around the entrances of popular hangouts, exploiting a technical issue that wouldn’t allow avatars to walk through each other when entering and exiting premises.
