Habbo Name Changes?

Some Habbo's have been around since the beginning. We were most likely all young and came up with some childish username (like mine). We should be able to change our usernames, even for a cost. People don't want to make new accounts because transferring all of the Furni will take forever. We're also unable to move badges, Habbo Home stickers, achievements and achievement scores between accounts. Being able to change our username would make things much more easier!


This is one of the many ideas submitted to Habbo regarding this topic, it has been under review for over a year now. All comments on this link http://habbo.uservoice.com/forums/17...ername-changes
are positive even showing many ideas to stop the feature being abused.

So i ask what are YOUR thoughts on this topic?

If you agree with this and want this to pass tweet the link, send in ideas about it on habbo, send it to them on Facebook everything share this.

what if you get hacked, you're name is gone forever. it was scrapped last year im sure anyways

[BlackSparrows]

It was never scrapped. And if you get hacked, habbo can see that you have been hacked, also people are suggesting paying for the name changes, i think thats another great way to stop the feature being abused and in your case if you get hacked

[lemons]

i just want them to delete inactive accounts so there is a wider choice of usernames

[BlackSparrows]

Yeah, they do really need to do that also, maybe send out a warning to those who haven't logged in within a year and they have no furni on the account.

I got given a name change,

My account on .co.uk was called Stexual what I created in 2007 and around a few weeks after all English hotels merged I was banned permanently for the name being inappropriate.

I sent a help request saying that I've had the name since 2007 and no staff have ever had an issue with it, so they offered me a name change to anything I like, so I changed it to iBlueBox, everything on the account stayed the same, rooms, furniture ect, badges, groups just my habbo name was different.

NO THIS THREATENS MY BEAUTIFUL RARE NAMES SOMEHOW

No I am 100 percent against this idea for the reason that everyone else has said. If you get hacked, then your names can be taken as well as your furni. Also it will promote buying/selling of names. it's a stupid idea. Suck it up and make an new account.

[BlackSparrows]

You have a very valid point there, but would you be for it if Habbo implemented a way to stop your name from being stolen e.g. Paying for each name change, limiting each name change, and making each name change be processed via email that way it is not some willy nilly decision anyone can make, including hackers.
