Would you rather have a good name on Habbo that's like a real ord for example... 'Beat'
Or would you prefer to have a lot of badges.
Or would you like an account that is quite old.

And why?



The reason I ask is because, my account Samantha421 has about 40 badges, and has also been a member for over 2 years, on the other hand, I have an account dollyblue$ where the name needs changing, and it will be 2 years old (the account) in 3 days. But it has no badges.

So would you prefer, the name, the badges, or the age.

aha

well I have my MrJordan account which is five years old, my current account has quite a lot of badges but I would rather have a decent name tbh. My iHexagonz name is alright, but so is mrjordan. The only reason I don't use it - is because of the punctuation and grammar lol.

To be honest, I see the name as a pretty big part of your habbo account - it rounds you up in a word.

I think the name is most important, because if you have an original name like 'beth' :P people will think your an old habbo and then wont care about the badges, they will respect you :P ??

Lol thanks

Sounds like a decent name so yes. Plus I would go for the name and not the badges as they can easily be gained in the future!

It was all about the names back in the day. Luckily I was able to have my Habbo account name changed to Bongo which was unacceptable (and couldn't be registered) at the time due to containing the word bong, so I was pretty happy to have such an original name.

A genuinely good name is always good to have rather than like .:.:::@!!WANG!!!:::..:. but those stupid names which are obscure adverbs like INTELLIGIBLY or whatever are just stupid, and a lot of them seem to be spelt wrong which kinda takes away from the intended effect (which I believe is to look more clever than one truly is)

obv the best is to have age, you're not cool if you're not 100% true Habbo

Yes but that is possible to be achieved. It would be better to have an original name and not a noobish name otherwise it is not cool!

I'd rather have a good name. Name's that I've recently had on Habbo from being staff previously at fansite's have made people interpret me in the wrong way.

However lots of badges, and showing the fact you've been around for a nice duration of time is quite nice.

Yeah, names are quite good atm, because at least they help the fact that you dont have hc.

Got called a noob just cos i didnt have hc, when i was saving up for it anyway lol.

I would prefer badges lol, I like my ones i had on my old account, i had the 2 habwrecked ones :( seeing as your accounts are linked together, surely they should allow you to have all badges on any account. Seeing as its you with those accounts. Shame ;[

I think an account with a good name is among the most popular nowadays. Old accounts don't mean much to people, except for the badges associated with such. And on the topic of badges, you can get badges for practically anything these days, so they don't say much.

In earlier versions of Habbo, there were very few badges other than the HC badge. And if you held such a badge, you had a lot of respect and were looked up to by a lot of people.

Therefore, names seem to be the most popular pick, regardless of how long the account has been around, or what badges it has.

I like my name Habbo.... but I also love the fact I have so many badges (not as many as others but still) If my badges were to be on another decent name account like my other account 'Mourge' I would be in heaven!

I'd go for name cos when I was MC223 I felt like a right idiot xD So I decided to go back to Nuxty as I think your name says it all really!

I prefer names. I respect people a lot more when I see a nice original name. I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but its just how it is.

I have an account Tyler92 that i made in like 2002 on UK, but left if behind when .com.au opened, and I could never imagine going back to that account after the merge just because of the 92. Haha, but then again.. I'm also not really a big fan badges, I don't find myself ever wearing them.

Badges are more important. Why would you want to be called a random name like "Stick", "Car", "Tissue" etc Just have a name that you are happy with. The idea of having an account name that means something such as an item or word came from a long time ago when geeks thought it made them 1337 (leet). It's just hideous, do you really want to be called a name like that? No, most likely not. The reason people have them names is to impress others, it also makes them feel more important/intelligent/not a noob. If Habbo wasn't as embarrassing and you told your mate about it, when they ask what your username is and you say something like "Photocopy" they're just going to look at you and think "wtf". I really don't get all this "who has the rarer name" malarky. So yeh, badges are more important to me. Not that I play anymore.

I'd rather have an original name...like "Rob" or something, because badges & age can be gained, an original name cannot.

I'd rather have an account with an old date. I'm not sure why, but I think it's because I like the higher age badges :P

A good name (like mine)
I'd like my 5 year badge on this account too, however it's on RNB.Queen :(
