I tried to return to my Habbo Hotel account in 2016 after a 10 year ban. After some struggling to login, I contacted support, and found out that they delete any account banned for more than SIX MONTHS! I waited 9.5 years to log into an account that didn’t exist. RIP “Mr. Funnyshoes”
Back in 2005 I figured out how to log in on multiple Habbo accounts at once. I would run casino rooms using the dice and use a mob of clones to make it look like real players are winning and betting big. If an actual real player ever bet and won, I would kick them, tear down the whole room, transfer the items to new accounts, and start it up fresh. I probably had a few dozen accounts banned.
Oof, I still have mine from 2003. 14 Year old me, cute.
ArtMoney with a filter pack that allowed you to place furni in walls. You'd get room rights and then grief the place and you couldn't get them out without the same script.
Same as rigging someone's doorbell to TNT in Minecraft.
Hahahaha that’s a hilarious idea. I once applied to a company just to fix the fact that they banned emailing my domain name because it briefly had a lapse in registration. It was preventing me doing password recovery…they ended up fixing it after weeks of me emailing everyone i could find at the company and explaining in detail exactly why they couldn’t email me. Default sendgrid reputation protection behaviour, they had no idea.
Ex-MSN person here. Hotmail accounts are made inactive after 180 days of disuse, deleted after 360. I don’t recall the recycle time; however, you might be able to get it back if it’s been recycled.
RuneScape (1) the original, deleted my accounts shortly after switching over to RS2. My usernames were pretty amazing. 'Cash Trader' and 'Gem Trader'. Ironically there were NPCs called Gem Trader... so sad to have your account(s) you worked on for what felt like forever randomly deleted as a kid. Along with any rare old items.
