    I was iced for abing... but on this IP and on that account I hadn't ABed at all. I was restocking for 3-4 hours last night when I was bored. How lame -_- Good thing I still have some cash on my sides.

    its a sad sad day :( my account and all 10 mill and all my pet pets and items etc gone.. 5 years of having multiple accounts to get points has finally caught up with me.. i suspect its from moving a large amount (1.6 mill) through the trading post to my main account. Somehow they got ALL of my accounts even ones ive spent extra time on making different.. diff email address diff country diff name postal code everything.. and for almost 6 months i never even went on them and they didnt have contact with the accounts i was using (7 of them) but long story short 13 accounts frozen all in one day.. so they must have some pretty good tracking ability to go that far back in my history to kill off every account ive touched :(

    seems TNT has installed a program that goes back and looks at accounts that use the same IP address to make neopoints.... and they are icing tons of them.

    New rule... don't get caught having different accounts that make neopoints on the same IP address.

    Ouch. :(
    Sorry to hear that.
    So are you completely banned from the site now -- can you make another account?

    I was iced once a long time ago, but recently they froze all of my old/useless sides. I hadn't logged on in forever, never made NPs. The weirdest thing of all- they left the two accounts I used, the ones I made NPs on and transfered between, untouched. :!: Crazy people, TNT.

    I've been chain-iced... I was trying to get Shop Wizard banned, using a siple program made for this (I needed the source of the page!!!)...
    That's sad... :( (They also froze some accounts I never cheated on!!!)

    WOW

    My main got iced two weeks ago, so I changed IPs and started using a side account I had. Now my side is iced for ABing AGAIN when I was LEGITLY restocking. This is ridiculous.

    you might consider changing your IP... the one you use here didn't change!

    In your mind...
    I got iced again. I think I like starting over than actually getting somewhere in Neo. Everytime I reached like a plateau where no NP was made I always go to cheating and get iced.

    Then when I start up again by cheating, I can get by for like 2 months without getting caught and then start playing legit. I get caught cheating later on after that. It's so lame.

    yes... for people that have an ADSL connection it can be as simple as the follow.

    You can go to START>RUN and type cmd. At the command line type ipconfig /release (or winipcfg /release in earlier versions of Windows). Then hit ENTER. Next, type ipconfig /renew and you should get a new IP address from the router.

    If you have a cable modem, you may want to also renew its IP address. First, go ahead and release the IP address on the PC, then shut the computer down. Next, unplug the cable modem for a couple of minutes, then plug it back in again. Once all of the modem lights are green, power up the PC again. It should automatically renew its IP at boot.

    Cable modems are a bit trickier... tho an IP change can be accomplished with them too.

    i just tried doing that. but now im not sure whether my ip address really is changed, since ive previously always simply disconnected my modem (adsl) and turned it back on between logging into accounts, but still got chain-frozen somehow. had used ip-checking sites and they showed diff ips everytime i did that. dunno what went wrong..


    ..seriously... someone HELP ME.. what should i write in the form/email to tnt?? a good legit believeable reason?? i want my main account unfrozen.. i never did anything illegal on it.......... :cry: :cry:
