Using 2 Usershops

Sat Nov 12, 2005 8:21 am

Whoa I've been doing something that the editorial says I shouldn't for 2 years!

The old Terms and Conditions said that if we already had more than 5 accounts, we would be allowed to keep them as long as we didn't create any more. In the updated version, this has been taken out. Does it no longer apply? ~ helixnebula
Yes, ma'am. That no longer applies. 5 is the absolute limit for accounts. If you deactivate your extras and just keep five, you'll be fine. You'll also need to designate one as your main and close down all your shops on the other 4 accounts you keep.


I have 2 usershops that sell my restocked items but I haven't gotten any warning of some sort. Does this mean you can or can't have more than 1 user shop to sell items?

From the new T&C:

6. You May Only Have Five Accounts Because Your Pets Need Your Attention. It is important that Neopets users are responsible for their pets and play the game in a fair manner. Therefore, do not create more accounts or Neopets than you can maintain. You are allowed a maximum of five (5) accounts. One of these accounts, your main account, can do everything on Neopets. The other four accounts (except if one is a guild account as explained below) can adopt Neopets and maintain a gallery but cannot have a store, play games or any other activity that earns Neopoints or participate in any voting activities. You may freely transfer items among your accounts but they should be on the same e-mail address as your main account. If you are the head of a guild, you may use one of your five accounts as a guild account and it should be named as such (for example, Abandoned Computer Chips Orphanage guild account). In addition to your main account, a guild account can have a store but cannot earn Neopoints in any manner other than through the store, auctions and trades (and anything that happens on that account could impact your other accounts). If you maintain a guild account, you will be held responsible for that account. You are permitted only one guild account per guild.


I bolded the part that I think pertains to your question. The short answer is No, you can't have a shop on other accounts, only on your main account (unless it's specifically a guild account).

You may find this week's editorial even more specific to your question. Even though it is in response to a question about "old" users having more than 5 accounts, I think the instructions given are pretty clear:

You'll also need to designate one as your main and close down all your shops on the other 4 accounts you keep.

I sent in a question asking well how can you fund a gallery or feed pets or house them in the neolodge on the other accounts if you cant run a shop if it isnt a guild acct of course no answer, they didnt say trades or auctions were okay so now I am worried but at least my other account has always bene used for guild competetions which are supposedly okay as I dont advertise prises I just give em out to all who play in the games we have to generate activity
