I hope giving my brother items is ok =/ That's okay, they wouldn't freeze you for that. ^_^ I'm terrified that something will happend with my account. My mother obsessvly plays Spell or Starve on neopets and sometimes collects her dailies on our main computer (we have three computers, one for me, one for my sister, and one for my parents). I always turn off my computer at night and in the morning before I head off to school I jump on my parents computer to grab my freebies...  ; I always think that they'll confuse me grabbing my account stuff with my mom grabbing her stuff, assume I'm cheating and eat my account like a sad puppy dog... But then again, I'm paranoid... |

It doesn't look like I'm going to be unfrozen. There are six people in my family who all have Neopets accounts. But Iris (who my case was sent to by Josh) doesn't believe that. She thinks ALL of the accounts are mine. So I guess it's over. stoneman3x looks like he's officially dead. I was hoping the writers of the Neopian Times would write to her on my behalf, but I don't think anyone has done that. I am sorry I let everyone down. I tried my best to convince her, but it looks like I failed. If anyone has any hope for me-- anything at all that will make me believe I still have a chance-- I'd really appreciate it...

I have nothing for you, I'm so sorry...  I've never been frozen, warned, or anything, so I can't say anything. They do occasionally think I'm cheating, since my mom and I both have very active accounts. But we've, with rare exceptions, never given anything to one another. And... my mom is very girly in everything she does, and I'm very boyish on Neo. We also have opposite tastes for colors of pets, games, species, and what we do for fun on there (I make money, she donates. She's also wonderfully kind to scammers, beggars, and idiots, and I'm about as cold as ice to them.) I'm so sorry about your getting frozen, and even if it's a few months from now, I hope they do unfreeze you. |

My account has been unfrozen thanks to the divine intervention of Josh Filan. I want to thank everyone for their support and advice this week! You are all the best! I can't wait to get back to work! I'm writing again for the Neopian Times! Whoo Hoo!

Transferring items from one account to another is against the TOS? I've been transferring NP to my secondary accounts so I can buy food for my pets for as long as I've had the secondary accounts, since you can't play games or get freebies in extra accounts...how else are you going to feed pets in them?
I'm rather confused and worried now...it doesn't help that I made about ten accounts when I first signed up at Neopets. (That was long before the four-account rule was created; they said on the front page when it was first announced that you wouldn't have to give up extra accounts if you already had them, but I'm still going to take it down to my five favorite, just in case.)

You can't play games?? I thought you could play games on secondary accounts; I thought you just can't use the freebies (Tombola, Shrine, etc.). Oops.... |

I think you're allowed to play anything on secondary accounts that you can play an unlimited number of times on your main account, but I've never been clear on that....

Neonuts has a few cogs loose. First they tell you that it's against the rules to earn neopoints on more than one account and that ALL of your neopoints have to come from a single account. Then they tell you that if you try to transfer np or items, they'll assume your are a scammer and freeze you. Then they reassuringly tell you that's it's okay to have multiple accounts as long as you follow the rules. Hmmmmmm........

Could someone please direct me to the place where it states that transferring items or NP between accounts is against the TOS?

So has there been any kind of official statement on the subject? They was no official statement when they tooks down Treasure Hunt. They was no official statement when they cut the scores for Swarm in half. Neonuts doesn't like to make official statements that put them in bad light. |

It's not that I think you're mistaken, but that I wanted to read it over and see exactly what's not allowed. I'm sorry if that came off wrong...
Well, I've got to get NP to my secondary accounts somehow. I guess I'll just keep the transfers to very little NP, less than 2K at a time...
