Nicknames!?

Yeah so loads of people are curious about this 'Mysterious badge'. People think its a new system where you can change your habbo name or even a badge for linking your habbo account with facebook. Apparently not. Looking at some stuff online (i can't post links its against the habbo way and the forum rules) lalalla.... We will soon have the option to add a nickname to our habbo accounts?

Not 100% about this but it seems the most possible one so far!

Credits to the people that discovered this, just thought i would share :)

Hmmmmm, thats smart well done. Erm dunno about it yet lol.

Interesting but I want to have the right to change my habbo name! >:[.

whats the point in nicknames?
your habbo name is basically your 'nickname' plus aint this just a rip of runescape? :S

Lame.
now original names will be pointless; even if they're the real names people will only look at the nickname now.

Maybe your FaceBook Name Is Your Nickname ??? :O

I was just thinking that maybe they have put this in because most users do call other habbos by there first name these days so if they could put there real name by their habbo name everyone could have there name but it wont effect there database because it would still be under there habbo name on there

no idea rlly lol :S

Interesting, i wouldnt link mine to my facebook though. The nickname thing looks good, i'd probably have Lost_Witness or something.

Sad. Simply sad. We already have nick names! I mean, it's not like you see people going around with their full name :rolleyes:

This would help me because I'm awful at remembering people's real names therefore it'd be much easier to call them John and not !-0giggle0-!

Perhaps it's something to do with Facebook nicknames. I haven't made one, but on Facebook you can make a nickname which goes in your profile's URL like it was on MySpace.

kyle thats my username, noob

I really don't like my habbo name so I'll welcome this. Only had it because I needed to get everything of an old account.

I hate my user name :(
But I have my real name in my motto

This is such a good idea, saves people having to put their name in their mission or their tags

My name is old skool but MAN is it nooby, I like this idea, wonder where it will show up?

Yeah cuz yours sucks so bad. <3

Also I don't care much for nicknames, what's the point in them tbh. =l
My name is both in my usernamed and my mission, do I really need a nickname to say my name a third time?

It will look like this: http://habbonews.homeip.net/gallery/...40nickname.png and you get this badge if you change your nickname: http://images.habbo.com/c_images/alb.../ACH_Name1.gif

I suppose but would you be able to search their nickname and then add em from that search?

Haha same! It's sickening to think of the all the good names we could chosen from back when we made nooby ones :P.

I really can't see how this won't be a pointless update. You can't say, 'it will allow people to type your nickname instead of your Habbo name' ..I mean, why? :S

seams a little pointless but nonetheless it may have hidden berfits

I think it's a really good idea. I sometimes forget people's names and end up calling them by their Habbo name which, in some cases, might make you sound a little silly. If your 'nickname' can be like your real name or something, that would be really good.
