    Default Would you become Habbox staff if you could keep your username?

    Something that is commonly requested by members is the ability to maintain your forum username when becoming Habbox Staff for departments that currently require you to change your name to match your Habbo name. Some people feel so strongly about this that they refuse to join community departments. What I want to know is, if we removed this rule, would you join a community department?

    What is the likelihood that the rule will actually go away?

    I'd prefer the rule to say tbh. Was so much easier just knowing most people forum names was their habbos.

    Well my name never changed, but I never understood the rule in the first place since there's an option to have a Habbo name on display in the little "about me abridged" box.

    do people really refuse to join because of it lmao
    no i wouldn't be more likely to join staff if i could keep my username but i think its better for people who have to use habbo for their job to have the same forum name to make it easier for noobs to contact em

    i know u can have it in ur habbo name section like dbgtz says but u cant search for that easily whereas u can usually just find someone in the last online or through the member list

    i think you are the fussiest person on the planet if you refuse to have a job at hx cause you'd have to change your forum username lmao...
    --
    whilst it is possible to find someone's habbo username in their usertitle and the postbit, [in a scenario where events staff didn't need habbo names] if a new user has just been to an event for example and checks out the forum to find the events staff member and can't find them on the list via their habbo name... there is no feature available to search for the person using their usertitle or postbit.

    Don't change the rule it's fine as it is and it is the same few people who moan over it.

    I'd like to not be lawrawrrr on the forum tbh but understand why it's in place. When I was younger at Habbox, I'd have liked to have kept the same name rather than changed it, as now someone has signed up with that name in the meantime

    Back when I was .Cymru. I would have LOVED to change my name because I really hated the name. Now I'd probably keep Shonly unless I change it to Sho

    If so then cry
