Byndley Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I was playing a few games and I saw this guy's name at the top of almost all of the high-score lists: http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=liskov Turns out the guy is only 1 week old. 50+ Trophies, 210 avatars, and a baby neopet. Anyone feel suspicious at all?
Anime Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Possible it's someone who decided to change mains, but..... yeah, suspious.
tsaria_outsider Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 It looks fairly iffy to me >.>. I dunno, though.
Mimii Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I think that it looks fairly legit.. until you see all of those trophies. I am fairly positive that he is a cheater, in the games anyway. The other stuff might have just been from a side account that used to be his main. That disgusts me! I want all those trophies! LOL
hrtbrk Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Looks like all his other accounts have been frozen, judging by the avatars posted on his page... So he's not new to Neopets, just a new account.
Mimii Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Well what's weird is that the pages that show his "old accounts" are different right? Well the URL is different from regular lookups, too. A regular lookup: http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=USERNAME Those: http://www.neopets.com/show_user.phtml?user=USERNAME That's weird, eh? Unless there is some feature that I am unaware of where that URL is used. :S
tsaria_outsider Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Looks like all his other accounts have been frozen, judging by the avatars posted on his page... So he's not new to Neopets, just a new account. maybe they were frozen for cheating at games, he did strangely well at a large number of games in a very short time on a new account.
Jonboy14080405 Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I agree.... That looks oddly suspicious...:thumbsdown_still: I don't know though.... Unless he was "that" good at all of the games before and now he is just re-earning all the trophies :business: But 210 avatars in a week is very unprobable.... very.
Lion Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Well what's weird is that the pages that show his "old accounts" are different right? Well the URL is different from regular lookups, too. A regular lookup: http://www.neopets.com/userlookup.phtml?user=USERNAME Those: http://www.neopets.com/show_user.phtml?user=USERNAME That's weird, eh? Unless there is some feature that I am unaware of where that URL is used. :S Mimi, That is just a different way to link to your lookup. Nothing different about that. You use it when an account is frozen to link to your UL. But yeah, does look suspicious. AS for the baby neopet (as well as the other Neopets), I don't know HOW he got it, maybe from a friend? Or his other accounts...
hrtbrk Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 This is his fourth account, so I'm guessing his neofriends and/or from his guild. Plus, if he really did play all those games, there's a good chance he did buy it. He lives in Antarctica, what else is a guy to do ;)
Jonboy14080405 Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 I didn't notice that before.... he "lives" in Antarticia, has loads of trophies, a Baby Neopet, Lots of items, 200+ avatars, in one week.... Completly realistic
Ruto Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Of course he's not a new user, look at his Pteri. It's 22 days old, and his account is only a week old. xD Obviously he transferred his Pteri and items over before his other accounts were frozen. Like he knew it was coming... DUNDUNDUN
Cara Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 You're right it looks very suspicious to me, his other accounts were frozen you say? maybe it was for cheating, I wonder how long this account will last, and I'm not just saying that because I have trophy envy lol
Mimii Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Why is everyone slamming Antarctica? It's very stereotypical that Antarctica is so desolate that the only thing he has to do is play on Neopets. :P This is not the 18th century, peeps! lololol
Queen Diva Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 Oh my. *trophy envy* And they've fed a kad too!!! *sniffles* If only I lived in Antarctica :P Hold on, since when has Antarctica had interwebs? The only things I remember ever being there are scientific research stations and it's not like your going to be able to get cable!
lovedwallflower Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 well.. you could transfer pets and money (with which you could those avatars).. but the trophies?? how on earth did he manage that in one week? :S:S
Byndley Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 If I really am hopeless enough, I can calculate the amount of NP he gains each day just for owning those trophies. Oh, and I don't really mind where he put he was from. I said I was from Iraq or something like that. But, really I just didn't want to enter my zipcode.
dazngurl Posted May 10, 2009 Posted May 10, 2009 if he wasnt cheating.. then he must be REALLY good at earning all those trophies (oh, how i wish i had those!) but he does sound suspicious.....
shell Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 I think that it looks fairly legit.. until you see all of those trophies. I am fairly positive that he is a cheater, in the games anyway. The other stuff might have just been from a side account that used to be his main. That disgusts me! I want all those trophies! LOL Totally agree! I'm trying to build up my trophies so I can join those exclusive avatar guilds. Looks fishy...
Scharlet Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Yeah it's suspicious. But if anything it could be a side that 'e just got lucky on.
1tomread1 Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 It does look suspicious, 1500+ means the tree on Kass Basher and i've only ever got it once in 44 months! But you never know, hopefully TNT will sort out any actual cheaters to make trophies a bit easier each month.
Omnalu Posted May 12, 2009 Posted May 12, 2009 Yeah it's suspicious. But if anything it could be a side that 'e just got lucky on. That isn't possible since you're not allowed to play games on side accounts.
Byndley Posted May 12, 2009 Author Posted May 12, 2009 If his main was frozen, which could be the case, isn't he allowed to change mains, and do whatever he wants on his new main, even though it could have been a previous side?
Taliesan Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 Hmn, I generally just sell items in it when I get them. But if I get serveral items of value I don't want to sell I'll also use it for storage space - a place to find items I might sell later without searching for them through my annoyingly large deposit box xD
