Recently a friend gave me the entire contents of his Neopets account. It wasn't much by many people's standards (20K or so pure and 6 lab maps). As I am collecting the lab map, I took the pieces of that right away via trades. Just to be safe I used a bounce account, another account of mine that I transferred the pieces to first before sending them to my main account. I want the NP as well, but it seems like such a risk to transfer them with TNT being on a freezing spree. Is it worth it to transfer the NP and if so what is the best method of doing so (trades, etc.)?

The best way to transfer the np is through an overpriced junk item in your shop. I really think you should be okay. :)

I don't think any transferring of NP is a good idea. Whatever your motives are, it always looks like freezing, and it's never safe. But if you really need a good method, I'd say trades.

I wouldn't do it, except that I got throough fine transferring the maps. Should I maybe write to support and ask them if they could make sure I wasn't iced?

Well, writing support would only call attention to it in my opinion... Using the shop thing, I've transfered some quite large sums to my gallery account and both accounts are fine. If you don't feel comfortable with it, maybe it isn't worth transfering the 20k?

I really don't think 20k will cause any trouble. People transfer more than that all the time. I'd say either transfer it through your shop or use the trades. Don't use daily items like omelettes or tombola prizes, though. Buy a cheap plushie like the Blue Aisha Plushie (under 10np) or a toy or something and use that. I don't really think you have to worry about 20k, though.

I wouldn't write support about it because you are not supposed to be giving away neopoints to others. You could draw attention to yourself that way when normally it would have just passed by unnoticed.

if you are really worried, you should consider doing it so the isp thingy *i forget what its called* address thing is different, because neopets dos look at that

best of luck if you do try :)

If I were you I'd do it. I used to transfer my money all the time, I didn't get frozen, I quit. :) I usually transfer money by putting a junk item in the trade and bidding on it. Of course, that was only with something more than 100k. I think you should transfer by shop.

I would suggest the same as previously mentioned, but maybe, you should transfer it to another account first, to be safe, and then transfer it yo yours via trades on another computer. Safest way really.

I agree with Jasujo--don't write support--that sends a red flag to them. I transfer nps and items to my gallery account all of the time--b/c the trades are now somewhat risky, I do it two ways. If I need nps on my gallery account, I put something in the gallery's shop which is not a freebie/giveaway item (I use chia plushies--they are cheap) and overprice it--then the main account buys it. To send items to the gallery account, I use the neofriends only auction and "sell it" to myself that way. I think the key is not to do it all at once--just a little bit here and there.

I agree, you should be fine. It isn't even as if you're transferring from one account to the other. I've gone into my guild's account, for example, plenty of times, transferring items to myself and other users and it's never been a problem.

just a word of caution. I think you should wait before you transfer. Be on that account, like everyday feeding pets and somesuch, but dont transfer yet. If TNT sees an account accessed by one IP address, then suddenly another IP address accesses it then transferrs everything(unless your friend has a dynamic IP, then theres no problem i guess)...

I'd say wait about a week of feeding pets on that account. Just to be extra extra careful, if you havent done it already

Considering 20k is a small ammount, it shouldn't draw much attention. Whenever I send myself NPs though I always use the trading post and I wait a while inbetween accepting the offer. I think you'll be fine though.
