CHAPTER 3. ALTERNATIVE ACCOUNTS
Subsection 1. Alternate Account Limits
You are allowed to have alternative accounts, declared to OJSIG Command. However, only one account may be active per individual at any given time. All alternative accounts, including OJFD grading accounts, must be reported to OJSIG command. Failure to adhere to this policy will result in a one-rank demotion per offense.
Subsection 2. Alternate Accounts within USDF
Personnel can work at USDF on their approved alternate accounts for emergency purposes (e.g., muted, banned, compromised) or if required to by officers (e.g., inappropriate username). JSD+ and OCS Administration personnel may use authorized alternate accounts to test personnel. Furthermore, ranks can only be given to alternate accounts that have been approved by the USD ED and/or DOT&E for educational purposes only, or the USD I&S, CDR SOCOM, and/or JSIG for all other situations. . All other alternate accounts may not be promoted under any circumstances.
The USD ED and/or DOT&E authorizes the use of alternate accounts for educational purposes only. These accounts will be cleared with the USD I&S, CDR SOCOM, and/or JSIG who authorizes and monitors the use of alternate accounts used by USDF personnel. Personnel may request for an account change to use their alternate account following the Compromised and Alternate Accounts Request thread. Once approved, the alternate account will be added next to the individual’s original Habbo account name on the PTS. If the change is permanent, the alternate account name will replace the individual's original Habbo account name on the PTS.
Subsection 3. Account Name Changes
In order to request a name change the person should firstly DM either the JSIG or USD I&S prior to changing their username. They will then receive a set of instructions to follow to finalize the process. Name changes to alternative accounts must also be reported to the individuals listed above. Failure to follow the provider set out above will result in disciplinary action.
Subsection 4. Compromised Accounts
Becoming compromised is defined as the loss of sole, un-tampered access to an account, which may or may not result in the disclosure of account details or sensitive information to unauthorized individuals. The Senior Command of the United States Defense Force (USDF) places personnel security as one of its utmost priorities. As a subset of personal security, USDF-related account security extends, but is not limited to, the below platforms:
• Habbo account(s)
• USDF forum account
• USDF Discord account
In the case of a compromised account, a Compromised Account form must immediately be filled out and posted in the Compromised and Alternate Accounts Request thread. Personnel with compromised accounts may be removed from USDF platform(s) until the JSIG, CDR SOCOM, USD I&S or the NSA has appropriately reviewed and actioned their form. The first instance of an individual's account becoming compromised will result in, at minimum, a promotion lock. Any instance(s) of an individual's account becoming compromised thereafter will result in a dishonorable discharge.
Subsection 5. Use of Alternate Accounts in Warfare
Random people may choose to make alternate accounts to pose as high-ranking members of the USDF. Our restrictions on alternate accounts prevents impostors from entering USDF's premises. Any Habbo who argues that they are someone holding a high rank or position in the USDF is to be deemed invalid and not let in.
Subsection 6. Changing Accounts
The changing of accounts within the USDF for reasons other than emergencies is not recommended and may be denied. However, if for some reason a USDF personnel needs to change their Habbo name, they must follow the correct procedure outlined in Subsection 2 to obtain approval from the USD I&S, CDR SOCOM, and/or JSIG. No one else may approve name changes.

Dishonorably discharged USDF personnel may be permitted to purchase the HQ Access Pass only and not the Platinum/Diamond VIP - meaning forum and discord access is prohibited.
