The mute affected all Habbo communities around the world and prevented any conversations from happening through the main chat interface, the minimail, and console. On June 19, CEO of Habbo Paul LaFontaine announced plans for the "Great Unmute", which would include a new limit chat system as well as an overall update on moderation.

The limited chat system underwent beta testing on international hotels on June 21. On July 6, the final community, Habbo.com, received limited chat, marking the end of the mute. It was also announced on July 17 that free chat would be slowly coming back, and on August 2, Habbo.com became the last community to get it.
