    Do not use Hotmail/Live as your email can be compromised easily by using a method known as 'reverting'.
    wouldn't people read this, then look up 'reverting' and use it against someone they know for sure has hotmail/live as a primary account?

    The same can be said for scamming or hacking though, they could easily search up how to hack or scam Habbo accounts so there isn't really a problem.

    So? They're not secure at all so if you're using them in the first place as a main email address then you're dumb.

    I see both sides but I think the way around this is instead saying the above, say - "We recommend you use a Gmail account as it is much more secure."

    It does already say this: (The sentence in the first post was not all of the paragraph)

    Make sure you use a secure email provider such as Gmail or Yahoo Mail. Do not use Hotmail/Live as your email can be compromised easily by using a method known as 'reverting'.
