    ->josh>- 's account was created in around 03 i believe witch around that time charectors like > < and _ were allowed in user names , was given the name chaneg by staff aproval maybe becuase the staff felt jolly or becuase he was trying to help the cuminity with his safety homepage etc.

    Most alt code names that were active got banned during the week they got made , your lucky you got to keep the name for soo long , unless you have furniture/credits on the account they will not unban you , if you had furniture they would offer you a name change.

    Alt code names were disalowed due to there being an alt code for a space so people could register a name that already exsist like a staff account but have a space after the name , no one will notice the space though.

    Dunno why they stopped _ and > / < , i think they stopped <'s so you couldnt make an account that already exsists with the letter k init and do l< instead of the k (on habbo when you type it , it looks like a k)

    Alt code names were banned ages ago, because some alt codes appeared as nothing, so you could register the account Lost_Witness with spaces etc.

    Use the help tool get a name change.
