*sigh* I did it AGAIN

So, I logged onto my other account, sky_dolphin, when I was caught up doing something else. I left Neopets for an hour or so and when I came back on I decided to play the Wheel of Excitement. I completely forgot that I was logged in on my second account. It wasn't til after I started to spin it that I realised I wasn't on my main account. This same thing has happened only a month previously so it's going to look suspicious. Also, I did the dailies not long before I spun the Wheel of Excitement. I won't be surprised if I find myself frozen for this. I was absent-minded, I didn't intentionally mean to break the rules.

Thanks, but it probably won't. I have the worst luck ever. I'll be frozen while someone who deliberately broke the rules will get away. You just watch.

'Turn yourself in', explain, and offer to have what you earned taken away. At least it shows good intent.

Poor you. Hope you don't get frozen.

you probably not going to get frozen...there are so many more people out there who OD on the cheating that you're probably just gonna go unnoticed... but anyways... good luck

I agree. They might understand and decide to let you off or something... Either way, good luck. Hope you don't get frozen!

I very highly doubt you'll get frozen over it.
I wouldnt worry about it if I were you.
I've done that plenty of times (not on purpose) and I aint frozen.
So no sweat.

My thoughts exactly. Neopets paranoia.
Whats the point in HAVING a side account if you can't do anything on it anyway?

Arrgh how annoying for you. This is why I don't have side accounts; I just don't trust myself.

No worries dude, you'll be fine. Just don't go spinning it on your main for a while so they know you're not doing it for profit if they do bother to look into it.

I wouldn't worry about it. They won't freeze you for the odd accidental side account "abuse" like that. It's if you keep doing it intentionally and actively that they'll take notice and freeze you. There was a Q&A about this where they said it's okay if it happens occasionally but not to use your main account to do whatever it was you did on the other account that day.

Um, their rule of not earning NPs on side accounts is for your main account. So if you don't send any winnings over to your main account, you will be fine. I remember them saying you could earn NPs on your side account, as long as it seperate from your main.

No, that's not what they've been saying recently. You can send stuff around freely, but not make money. It's a lot clearer that way too because many side accounts involve items for legitimate reasons like galleries and i'd be next to impossible to distinguish the sending forth of good vs bad items.

I thought that you could send items TO your side account IF it's for gallery purpose...but then...they have made the gallery thingy now so that seems kind of pointless. There really isn't any NEED to have a side account anymore, unless you want to be a member of more than one guild or have like...eight neopets.
