Jessica Marie Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I'm just wondering if you or know of anybody who uses multipul accounts, this kind of thing was common back in the day but I haven't really played in a long time and I'm wondering if they're onto this kind of thing now, or is mild cheating still possible if you're careful about it?

Ruto Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 It's perfectly fine to have multiple accounts. You are allowed a maximum of five accounts, one for your main, and four side accounts. However, you can't use your side accounts to earn neopoints, do freebies, or anything that will gain you something on there. That's a freezing offense. ;o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Marie Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share Posted July 26, 2008 Then what's the point of having multipul accounts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruto Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Side accounts can be used as "storage accounts", meaning you can store extra pets and items there, as long as the items come from your main account. You can have different galleries on side accounts, provided the items come from the main. It is NOT acceptable to earn neopoints and items on them, though.

~warriorcatsforever~ Posted August 4, 2008 Share Posted August 4, 2008 My friends and I have made a few accounts together. I really don't have a "side" that only I use but I see myself having a few in the future for pet storage... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I have a few side accounts (less than 4, though.). Allow me to explain what I use them for. xP -One is my Neoboarding account (I lied about my age when I was eight on that account-ditto to my friend-but she turned nine about a month ago in 2006, when we lied about our age :P). Since it clearly has no other use. -Another is a Neohoming account. I am planning to make a Neohome on that account. -The other two are Unclassified/Categoriless accounts. xD I should log into my side accounts....I haven't in AGES :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cara Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I find that side accounts are really good for when you are given a faerie quest, because the faeries dont allow you to use the shop wizard for some unknown, but im sure very important reason... *ahem* you can just use the shop wizard on one of your other accounts instead, very handy if you are not in the mood to search on the quest help of the neoboards ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antiaircraft Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 To answer the original poster's question: having multiple accounts (known as 'side' accounts) is a very common practice on Neopets. Most Neopets players I've met have at least one side (although I personally just use one account). However, TNT strictly maintains that you cannot use side accounts to do dailies or anything else that would result in unfair profit. :yes: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torridity Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I have lots of side accounts, which I use mainly for being in different guilds. I only ever received a warning once, when I distributed a lot of expensive av items between my accounts in a short period of time. I'm pretty sure that's not breaking any ules, but it could have looked suspicious to them. Anyways - it's probably possible to cheat mildly, but I wouldn't recommend it. It would really suck to have all your accounts chain frozen for breaking the rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I see other purpose of having sides accounts. => You can test layout on them, without breaking the code of what is on your main lookup, guild page... => You can have more than 4 pets (thus more than 4 petpages) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
