    How can I even take responsibility for something that wasn't my fault? It's not like I woke up and thought "Oh, I'll get hacked today, that'll be my mission."

    The best I could do is use a password I thought no one would know and set security to questions. I really don't understand how it's my fault for getting hacked and why everyone is basically saying it is.
    If you read it properly you'd say I said in 'other cases'. xoxo

    Plus you made your password, if it's:

    despair

    you'll get hacked and that's your fault

    so yeah
    i used to put the names of my favourite singers here... then i realised nobody cared

    The real mystery that you should be concerned about is how the hell did they hack your account in the first place. If I were you i'd try to improve security on your accounts, whether that be multiple emails, different passwords, not givinng people answers to possible security questions (e.g. name of first pet, mother's maiden name), etc. There's no way in finding out who hacked you and why, the only thing you can do is prevent it from happening again.

    I've changed my password to something completely different now, and my security questions are something I can hardly remember myself, that's really the best I can do for my account.

    Don't forget your email account... and what security comes with that too!

    I was behind the desk when I witnessed your account online, trashing the room, Dani.
    You didn't speak in the desk though.

    But well done on getting unbanned woo
    I'm pretty sure that's the reason it's in place. Although it's definitely not your own fault if you get hacked, your account is still your own responsibility. It's very difficult for hackers to get into your account if you have a strong password (and a strong password on the email that your account is linked with), don't click/go to any links on Habbo in case they're scam sites and don't give out your password.

    Glad you changed your password and things Dani. Weird that they only came into HxHD to trash.. Not something a hacker would normally do I don't think but I suppose I wouldn't know Must've been someone already at Habbox, yeah...

    Well they couldn't trade any furni because they couldn't get through the security questions which is lucky for me, but they spoke to a few people in messages which is how I learnt that I had been hacked. :L

    I'm assuming nothing was taken because your account would have been safety locked
