Anyone want a name~?

[Catzsy]

Fair point, not sure if it still works like this, but it used to be easy to revert an account you gave to someone - wouldn't this still be a risk - or have they got something in place for that?

Tbh I am not sure but I know it was gone into by management pretty seriously and seems to be working just fine.
I haven't seen a complaint about it on here at all. I think it could be done by just registering the name but not verying an email?

It's because when you first register an account you get the first 24 hours (or is it the first few days?) to change the username. Basically what happens is say I had the name David and I wanted to give it to hoteluser I would change the account name David I have to say david12304 and then Hoteluser would be able to register the name David There isn't actually any 'trade' going on just changing the name of your current account and then registering another one

OH I GET IT!

It all makes sense now :L

Oh i didn't know this, so it's kinda like the other person 'reserves' the name for you. But there is a time limit between when you can do as Habbo only allows you to change names in the first couple of days.

Nice idea! Learn something new everyday.

Obviously account selling when you had account for years (or anything after this time period to change the name on your habbo account), is against the Habbo way?

I have Pop and Google. I need nothing else

[Paracme]

They had a mass account delete? I never even realised. I should have stole a few names.

[Pass]

you're allowed to change the name of newly registered accounts for the first 7 days, just saying!

None of those names are very good, but thanks for the generosity I guess!
