Friend Frozen

[Adam loves Hilary Duff]

My friend was making an account a week ago.
They needed ideas for names.
They love Jhudora and Kass.
So I said "JhudorasPetKass"
Now they are frozen for making an account with the same name someone did before that was inactivated.

This account has been FROZEN for the following reason:

This previously inactive account was being accessed by someone other than the original owner.

Is there anyway he can get his account back? He just painted his Usul, Usuki yesterday.

wow that really sucks

[everconfused]

Oh dear. This is not the first time this has happened. Neo went through and technically deleted old accounts/pet names so they could be used again. Apparently something wasn't cleared completely.

I've read of people starting a new account and finding a pet, neofriends, etc.! And then getting the account frozen for the same reason as your friend.

I really don't think your friend will be able to get the account back, unfortunately. It can't hurt to write in, give details - especially about painting the pet Usuki - there can't be many of those around. Maybe they will get lucky?

Neo should be aware of this problem, I'd have your friend fill out one of those forums in as much detail as he can...maybe he can get it unforzen...if not I'd sugest non-neo realted names to hopefully weed out any duplicates.

Same thing happened to my husband a few months ago. He had created an account back in late spring/early summer of 2004--it had a great name. Not a primary account, so he didn't go to it every day, but still often enough for anyone to see that it was an active account.

No problem with the account for six months. Then, one day, he goes to it and finds the account frozen and gets the same reason that your friend got.

I hate to say it, but he never got it back. However, he did not try too hard--just sent in the frozen form, but never followed up with it. At that point in time, he was so disgusted with Neopets that he quit for awhile. He didn't have too much on the account--no painted pets and only about 100K--so he figured it wasn't worth the time and trouble to try and get the account back. Perhaps your friend will have better luck.

It is extremely unfair because if Neopets has decided to reactivate these names, they shouldn't then later change their mind for no rhyme nor reason. If it was a mistake and Neopets decides that the name shouldn't have been reactivated, they should let that player know a mistake was made in reactivating the name and give the player a certain amount of time to move their pets/items/nps to a different account or tell the player that the name is going to be changed to xxxx. I don't understand why Neopets can't change a player's name--put a 1 or a dash or something like that in it.

Actually, there are alot of UsukiBoy Usul's.
Me, Sunnie, and JhudorasPetKass all had UsukiBoy Usul's.
THE THREE MUSKETEERS!

I hate to be be judgemental, but would that not be ALL Neopets fault for allowing a person to create the account with such a name. How was that person know that the username was used before? Most accounts which have been deacitivated cannot be found in the search bar!

[nacine82]

I agree it was completly their fault and they should give you everything you had back! That's not you fault that they messed up ya know..

The person iced was me sux.. I had just pasted my 1337 usul usuki lol.

If you do decide to follow up on your account to get it back, I would highly recommend not using the words sux, 1337 or lol.
