security, vB protects password with md5 and then habbox would need to know how to unlock etc. Also Habbox.com generally gets hacked, HabboxForum has never been hacked afaik. So if Habbox.com got hacked, As would HxF... Dangerous
You can reset it via email.
This. It would be irresponsible and in direct violation of our privacy policy.

Actually, beforehand you didn't need an email to sign up, unless someone made my account - I didn't have one hence @xxMATTGxx; has had to reset my password like 3 times. Likewise with the Wiki .

With the upcoming changes to news you won't need separate Hx accounts anyway
At the time I wasn't allowed due to being a manager, I know my passwords now so it's fine.

Yes you would as I doubt they would be removed off the main site.
Aren't Hx accounts just so you can place comments on articles though which isn't gonna be necessary now
habbox accounts are used to access staff panels too
@Chippiewill; i don't have an email since it was created for me
Ask @xxMATTGxx; to reset then. And also set your email.habbox accounts are used to access staff panels too

what
the way vb do your password wouldn't matter would it, when you log in your password is converted (so it'd be converted to md5($password.m5($salt)) or whatever method is used if it even uses salt value idk
habbox.com would do the exact same and check if it matches the hashed password in the DB..
so if someone hacked habbox they'd get nothing they wouldn't get from now, apart from access to the forum with the user they hacked (which they probably use the same password for anyway)?
