Jayfeather Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I've been on Neopets for about 7 years now. Along time ago, back in 04, I created another account. I joined another guild in it, created other pets. I know it went against the more than one account being active rule. However, all this time, I've never been frozen on either accounts. I have sometimes done dailies on both accounts, but I only kept whatever I got on that one account I got the dailies from. On occasion I have moved things onto other accounts. I don't consider that I'm really cheating. I created another account because I wanted another username and because I wanted other pets but could never pound any on my main. The accounts have different emails, but I log in on the same computer. The birthdays are also the same. Lately I've been playing only on one account, just chatting on the boards on my oldest account. I probably should feel bad for doing this, but it was along time ago that I created this other account. I don't think I'd be frozen unless I really cheated. After a long period of time, I've been coming back on Neopets more. I don't want to cheat, I just like having one account where the pets I have are the ones I had from the first time I joined. My other account is more of my main now. Just curious if anyone else has ever done this.. I mean, it's tempting to not have more than one main..

Luciana Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I'm not sure if that's 100% allowed. I've done it before and never got in any trouble for it, though. The rules say you can have multiple accounts, but you can only earn neopoints on your main account. All the money on your side accounts should be sent from your main account.

Jayfeather Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks for replying! I think I'm fine, I've never gotten in trouble, and I mostly go on my second account now and I don't move items to different accounts. I have before, but not often. And just little things too, like maybe sending a codestone over. I'm sure I'll be fine though. Mostly as I said, I go on my other account. My main account I just mostly chat on the boards with now.

Luciana Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 No prob. I've heard of people doing much more than what you're doing with alternate accounts and they're fine too. Just be careful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Just make your second account your main account. Then you won't have to worry. Then use your "old main" as a side account to access your guild! WIN/WIN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixensykerd Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Do just be careful though :P I did this when I was on neopets years ago, and got both account frozen. Back then they didn't really have the easy-to-fill-in form and I knew I'd done wrong anyway - so it pretty much ended my neopet-ing for 8 years... (Woah, that feels like so long ago!). But I did get kinda sloppy... I sent kept sending lab maps that I got in RE's to my main :P I don't think I'd do it again, but only because I'm much better at neopets now and I don't want to risk my account! Just be careful ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjoudrey Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I have a side account to use for petpages, and I will just feed my pets using the soup kitchen, but I don't play any games or do any dailies. My main account is way too important to me to lose it now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashbash Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 The only thing that sounds like something you probably shouldn't do to me would be collecting dailies on both accounts. That is a big no no. But as long as you aren't doing that anymore you should be fine. You're allowed to have a main and a side and be in guilds on both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey sorry, but I'm a little confused here. Are you saying that you're not allowed to send the RE items you get on your side accounts to your main? I was sure that was completely ok to do.

Ashbash Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 I believe that is exactly what Vixensykerd is saying. It's definitely not allowed to send RE items from your side to your main. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's definitely not allowed to send RE items from your side to your main. I'm not sure about this, but I could have sworn in an editorial, they said it was fine to do that. You can't control getting REs on your side. They said you didn't have to donate the items/NP you get from it. I don't remember it saying anywhere, that you couldn't transfer the items. They actually tell you to transfer items to your side FROM your main, so I don't see how it could be okay to do that, but not okay to send them from you side TO your main.

Jayfeather Posted April 25, 2010 Author Share Posted April 25, 2010 Thanks for the replies everyone! I'm being careful. Only been really going on one account anyway, the other account just to chat. I'm sure I'll be fine. =) When you think about it, there are so many users on neopets now I wonder how TNT figures it out, or keeps track of these things.

Hmm I'm confused now as well lol! Maybe I am wrong but I thought sending RE items from your side to your main wasn't allowed because then you're getting more on one account than you should if that makes sense. Sending items from your main to your side is okay because you're not trying to make neopoints off of them was my understanding. But as I said I could be wrong.

Luciana Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Well.. you are allowed to log on to your side accounts. And you have no control over what Random Events you get. I'm just gonna go with it's ok to send items from your side to your main. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ditosmom Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Interesting points brought up here ... I am curious to know what TNT would say about sending the RE's from a side to a main. I don't really have to worry about it because I am just not on my sides long enough to get RE's ... or maybe I'm just that unlucky :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Sending random event items to your main is 100% allowed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riverus Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Yes, neopets has said many times that anything you get from a random event is okay to keep, no matter what account you're using (main, side, whatever). Neopets likes you to have all accounts on the same e-mail address, so you should change one of your accounts so both have the same e-mail. Besides that, just make sure you don't play games, do dailies, or have a shop on your side account and you should be fine. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixensykerd Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 8-|, ok, so I lost an awsome account for nothing... geez, thanks TNT. Ahh well, I don't think I would have done as well in my GCSE's & Alevels if I'd had neopets to distract me ;) So, thanks TNT lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
