Exactly. They've changed their stance since then.

You can self-freeze an account if it's an issue. It would probably be better to be safe than sorry. I had two side accounts that I did dailies (and sent things back and forth) on and didn't realize I was doing something wrong until a friend clued me in.
As far as gallery goes, I don't see why anyone couldn't just break it up into catagories and create one huge one. :/

Normally I'm very cautious, but if this has only happened twice and the times were far apart (and a month is a long time), I wouldn't worry at all. TNT staffers know you mess up sometimes, and they let it go as long as it's not happening often (and they probably don't even notice unless it's happening often). "Turning yourself in" is unnecessary and could just result in trouble if they misunderstand what you're saying, and self-freezing is really unnecessary. Don't worry about it, but be careful.
Do you have any sidebars beyond the default yellow? My main has Halloween and my side is plain yellow, so I never forget which account I'm in. I suggest anyone having problems do that (hopefully if you don't have any special sidebars yet, you'll get one for the Altador plot/Altador Cup soon).

I used to do this all of the time. Back when I first started, I did dailies on two accounts and sent things back and forth FOR MONTHS. Now, I didn't send things back and forth like, every day...but for big things I did, and I have never been frozen.
Even now I'll accidently send game scores in once and a while (I'll start the game while I'm logged into my main, switch over to use the lab ray and then accidently send while I'm in the side account) and I have never recieved a warning.
And I have two accounts, one is my main and the other my side. I created my main first, forgot about it, and created a new one (what was to become my side) and played it for about 2 years. During this time I put a lot of np in to stock. Then I remembered my old account, and decided to use it full time. Now I use my side for my labray only. But what am I supposed to do with all the money I invested into my portfolio? For the most part I've left it in there, but I take it out whenever I need to transfer pets. I mean, no matter what I'm going to end up making a profit. If I leave it in there, it'll continue to grow and if I take it out, I'll have all this np. But now I don't play the stock market on my main account. I think with things like the stock market and bank interest, it shouldn't matter which account you're collecting it in because if you combined and put it all on one account, you'd get the same result, perhaps an even higher income. But whatever, it's TNT's opinion that counts, not mine.
Basically, self-reporting is only going to end badly. Everyone makes these mistakes and there are a lot worse things going on. As long as you aren't doing things maliciously, don't worry. But at the same time, don't think abuse things, thinking that you can get away with them because what you're doing isn't 'that bad'. Common sense.
