So me and my brother both play neopets, on the same network, and therefore same ip (if im right)
and sometimes my friend is around, and he plays neopets as well..

Doesn't this look bad, in the eyes of TNT?

i know i could be proxy'ing it up, but i dont wanna spend money on a good proxy, and the ones i was able to find, was extremely slow and non reliant.

Thanks in advance :)

perhaps no.
I have been accessing more than 6 accounts with the same IP, so far none of them got banned due to multi account

If you're caught cheating you'll get a chain freeze.
If you dont cheat then you're probably safe.

You'll be fine as long as you are legit. However, if TNT thinks there is something suspicious with one of your accounts, they will either freeze just that account, or all of them. Your IP address could also be permanently banned.

my sister and I used the same comp for neopets and never got frozen, you should be fine as long as you don't cheat. If you do cheat, it's likely to result in a chain freeze, depending on your method of cheating.

As long as they dont see a lot of weird trades, you are safe. :) I don't know their critery tho. I suppose if an account only does dailies and the earnings are sent to another that looks suspicious and they'll keep an eye.

I dont think so. Though i'm not sure if it will bring up a red flag if you run multiple accounts from the same IP for long periods of time. My sister has an account she uses and normally does it around the same time i'm on, though for around an hour or 2 at most. So far, been doing this for a few months and nothing has happened yet. I'm sure you're alright, though it would be suspicious if you ran multiple accounts everyday for hours on end.

I do dailies on all my accounts. Gotta make TNT believe there's a huge extended family in my house, or tons of my neighbours are stealing my wifi to play Neopets :p

Want to know something funny? All three of us siblings played neopets at one point. Only I was the only one cheating meaning I had multiple accounts, the works. I was chain frozen, but both my brother and sister were spared.... twice. I was chain frozen twice and they were both safe. I guess TNT spared them because I never sent items to their account (except once in a full moon) as gifts and their accounts looked really legit considering that they never made any np, traded, or anything other than play some flash games once in a while. Take this as some help to deduce "TNT's criteria"

Wow. I've never heard of that happening before. Maybe this was back when TNT had a heart. Posted Image

I've frequently had sides spared when I get a main frozen. As long as it doesn't seem like the other accounts are profiteering, they will generally be safe.

It should be fine. I've got several siblings and friends who share the same IP. Plus people that live in residence and what not generally share the same IP.

My sister, brother, and I have all played on the same computers and network for years. My best friend and boyfriend come over and play almost everyday too.

None of us have ever gotten in trouble or frozen for anything. TNT seems to be pretty good at telling the difference between users. For example, my accounts are always really well put together. Nicely named painted pets, custom graphics on everything, lots of chatting, and the same general habits everyday. My sister has a few painted pets, but pretty poorly named and she only plays a few games and does her dailies, never really chatting on the boards. My little brother has terrible named, unpainted pets and he only logs in about once a month to play a few games and never chats.

TNT has said before that the way people play can usually tell them if they are the same people or not.

TNT also says they only ban people who cheat.

Probably a scam. Sounds like standard scam material.
