    Default Habbo ID Is Coming

    News on some important changes to the way you log in to your Habbo account.
    You've probably noticed we've been making changes in how you sign in and register an account in Habbo. The biggest change of all for the accounts is coming this week.
    Starting on Tuesday 23rd March, every Habbo will get a new Habbo ID, where your username is your email address, and not your Habbo character name. If you're already using Facebook, Google or Twitter account with Habbo, you don't need to do anything about this, but if you're still signing in with your Habbo name, there are small changes ahead.
    Why do this?
    Pretty simple! We want to make signing into Habbo more convenient, make it easier to remember one's account name and improve Habbo's security.
    The change is only being made when you log in to Habbo and your account name will appear as normal when inside the Hotel.
    How does it work?
    When the change comes, we'll automatically create your Habbo ID in case your email address is activated. If you haven't activated your email, we'll ask some registration details from you, after which you must activate your email address.
    You don't need to worry about the specific details of how this will work. We'll let you know on your first sign in after the Habbo ID is out. If you can, please make sure your email address is activated by resending your activiation email on this page, or link your account to Facebook or Google by clicking on the service's logo on the Habbo front page.
    If you haven't verified your email due to accidentally entering a wrong birth date when originally signing up to Habbo, don't worry. We'll allow you a onetime chance to change the birth date to your real birth date when you're creating the Habbo ID.

    Totally confused as to what's happening here :S

    Will I have to log in with my Email Address?

    What happens though, as I have many accounts registered to one email..?

    Overcomplicated things much?!

    Basically you log into habbo using your email address not your habbo name. When your in-game your username will be there not your email

    But will they allow you more than one account on one email address?

    I'm so confused to how this is gonna work if you have multiple accounts, which most people do. I'm guessing you'll need a different email for each account, or just loads of accounts on the same email which would make it less sercure? if you got hacked then they basically can get all of your accounts, so i don't think it will be like that tbh. Probaly different email for each account. Or maybe only allowed 1 account? that would be hell, i doubt it though, wouldn't suprise me if they have a maximum number of accounts per IP, unless they already do which is probs like 100? cause i got loads anyway i'm starting to confuse myself now, god knows why habbo are doing this, can't see what good its gonna do.
