Question about transfering moola

Mon May 05, 2008 5:36 am

Is it ok to sell my Neopets stock using my side account & then transferring it into my main account? I won't be using my side account to buy stocks, just selling them and my main account will be the one buying.

I'm confused. How do you have stocks on your side without buying them to begin with? o_O

It sounds like you'd be making NP on a side account, in any case, which is a no-no.

My old account is my side account & that one has shares/stock in it already. With my old/side account I wanna sell stock and then transfer the money to my new/main account. At the same time, I wanna buy stock using the new/main account.

You can't have to 'active' accounts at the same, meaning you can't gradually sell the stocks on your old account and buy stocks on your new account.. From TNT's (short) point of view, you'd be making money on both accounts (since I assume you'll earn NP on your new main account as well).

If you want to change accounts, you have to transfer everything all at once, including stocks. You can try if you want, but don't be surprised if you find both accounts frozen

Yeah, your probably right Kenjiro. I guess it all depends on how TNT sees it. If I were to buy and sell using 2 different accounts w/the same email, it'll look really suspicious on my part. Thanks for the help guys.

EDIT: I forgot to ask. Is it ok to use the shop wizard on my side account, given that the np comes from the main account? I want to be able buy items to fulfill Kitchen Quests on my side account.

MayEdit: Please do not double-post. If you were the last to post and you have something to add, please use the handy Image button in the lower right corner of your post. Thanks :)

You aren't allowed to do Kitchen Quests on your side account as it gives you prizes. You may use your side to look up items if your main is on a faerie quest (buy the item on your main), but may not use it for profit (ie, sniping, if you are SW banned). Any activity that has the chance of giving you neopoints or items that you can sell DO NOT DO. Side accounts are not to be used to give you any monetary advantage, no matter how small.

Check out this post. One of the very first sections is all about side accounts - what you can and cannot do.
