linsta Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 So I started this new account just 2 months ago after coming back to neopets after a 6-7 year hiatus. Recently, I've become interested in the food club, but it isn't worth it at all to bet with my 2 month old account. However, I have a side that is 7 years old, but I'm pretty sure that I would not be allowed to use that for food club betting unless I switched my main. Can anyone confirm this? I know that your'e allowed to use the attic on a side if you have an aged side, and as long as you dont RS anywhere else on your side. I'm guessing that doesn't also apply to food club, but I'm not really sure. I just think that it's really unfortunate, and I reaaaally want to play food club :(. However, I don't want to have to switch my main...what to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neoskulltula Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 If you're using an account to acquire NP or items, it has to be on one account and one account only. You will have to switch mains if you wish to use what is currently your side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angeló Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 you can't use your side to bet in the Food Club unless you make it your new main ... and your current main becomes a side ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 Honestly, I would ask in the Editorial or submit a ticket. They may allow it since they allow access to other areas. Doesn't hurt to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 They've already answered this, actually, and that's a no :) Since it's a way to earn NP and side accounts aren't meant for that. You can view the editorial here Dear TNT,Many of us have been wondering whether it is okay to place bets on side accounts for the Food Club. Would you mind illuminating us with your great knowledge? ~esbenkaldahl We're gonna say no to this one, as the reason to play Food Club is to place bets and earn NP, which you shouldn't be doing on your side accounts. So you're going to have to switch mains if you want to do FCBs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linsta Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 aww that's lame :(, I guess I won't be doing food club for a few years :/ I don't get why they'd allow attic but not food club. I mean attic is purely to earn NPs too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spritzie Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 It's probably due to the fact that with the Attic, you can't even access it until your account is a certain age, where as with the Food Club, you can access it, you're just a bit more limited with what you can do, due to account age.

linsta Posted February 13, 2012 Author Share Posted February 13, 2012 It would be really awesome if TNT could make a system where you can merge up to 5 sides. That way people who have been playing for a long time wouldn't be penalized with the new account restrictions, and there would be no issue with using sides to gain np since it wouldn't even be possible. I guess it's just a lot of work for them to do :(. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can view the editorial here So you're going to have to switch mains if you want to do FCBs. IMO that's a different question than what the OP is asking. The editorial question asks if you can bet on your side accounts in addition to your main, where the OP is asking to place bets on one, aged, account. The answer is still probably the same, but it still doesn't hurt to ask imo. There's nothing to lose! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
linsta Posted February 18, 2012 Author Share Posted February 18, 2012 Hmmm.. I thought of an idea. I might submit this to the editorial but ask here first to see what you guys think... What if I were to just do all the dailies/moneymaking on my side? That would be the same thing as switching my main right? Except I would still use my current account as my "main" in the sense that I will put all my time into it, do any avvie dailies on it (is that allowed at least?), but I would be careful not to do and np making dailies on it, and I could sell everythign on my acc that I use to make nps? (You're only allowed to sell things from one acc right? Or am I wrong?). I would send the np I make to my dedicated account after. Edit: Hmm, I just realized though, if I switched "mains" and still used my old main as a primary account, just without earning nps on it... technically I wouldn't be allowed to enter the art gallery or participate in site events on it right? And what about earning trophies? *sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
