So I learned a few things being ip banned. When banned you cannot log onto neopets without using a proxy. But to get on you don't need to use a proxy the whole time. Just for when you hit enter on the password screen. Then you can turn off the proxy and run it normally. So what i was thinking was if you aren't ip banned but you still want to have an ip that isn't yours, you can do the same as I did. Just turn on the proxy during the password screen and the log out screen. Currently I'm doing this with my main, and cheating on my regular ip. I'm using igloo abers. When and if i get my cheating accounts get iced ill let you all know if my main does too. If it doesn't, this works! If anyone has info to add to this or to destroy everything i just said, please post.
If you get banned within a few weeks and your main has at one point been used by that ip address all the accounts will be banned.
That's probably true. That's why I leave my main on crome all the time. When i want to send items from the cheating account i get on firefox. So really i barely every sign in / out of my main.
Ok well just so you know when they ban you for cheating or what have you, they ban all the accounts on that ip. Not just that account.
My main was made on a different IP. edit: And the cheating accounts were made on a hotels IP. (but they still use my current ip for when i log in/cheat)
Ok but thats not the point. If you logged into that account on that ip address then it will be banned, not just if it was made on that ip lol.
Use a proxy when you log into it? If you accidentally log in then cool on the cheating for a month or so.
I have been using different ips to log into different accounts on different browsers on the same computer and then reverting to one ip after having logged in. It's working great for me right now; however, I am starting to think that TNT does log your ip on some pages. I once used a German ip and the site automatically had german ads and it had nothing to do with my account belonging to Germany. So that's a heads-up for you.
A few things: TNT tracks an accounts' main IP on the login and logout sections, but they can still check your IP after the login. Since you used the same IP to login to all the other accounts, your main account would be considered VERY involved with the activities of the side accounts. But, a quick note, it is VERY hard to get iced in the igloo.
Well let's say they ice the accounts I'm abing on. I immediately switch to a proxy and sign out. I stay inactive for a couple weeks. Would the red alert go away by then, or would i be screwed? Because check this. I was ip banned for 6 months. I did that exact thing of proxy in / out when i was banned and never got my account frozen during that time. So i would think if they thought my account may be a multi that they wouldn't check till after my cheaters were frozen. (i did in/out while ip banned for about 5 months...) edit: for this post Was the language of Neopets in German too? Or just the adds?
Well, you could always unplug your modem overnight and it would change your IP so you could use neopets again...lol Then you could use your main account in chrome with your network's ip and then use FF or IE for you cheating accounts with proxies. Just an idea.
Proxies do that. Certain proxies are for certain countries. lol And as for ads, they work based off IP address and keywords. If you want to figure out where the proxy is for just type in google.com. Usually this can tell you where it is from, because it will switch to the country. Like if its from france it will switch to google.fr. I used a proxy to make an account to SS on and it selected Netherlands. I laughed. Less info for me to fill in.
That's different. I think neopets is set as auto one language. You have it in whatever not germany and it stays till you change it. Adds probably differ per country or something?
I'm pretty sure some pages on neopets are secure and they will track your ip on those pages after being logged in. It's just safe to use a proxy at all times, it seems like it's more work to put on a proxy then take it off during log ins and log outs. I've never been IP banned, but do you still see the Neopets site? At what point does Neopets stop you? Login page?
Correct.. It will not let you login to neopets. It will come up with an error. An easy way to experience this is to find a proxy that's been IP banned.. Sadly I don't have any I can share.... But someone round here might.
I have used proxies which say "Forbidden" after I try to log in, but if I enter a blank username, it still goes through. Is that how it looks like?
That's the thing, the ads would probably change according to the country that I have my account set to. But how is it that before the entire site could recognize my German ip? So yeah, I'm not a coder or anything, so I don't know if I'm right, or otherwise just disregard me. Only TNT knows what TNT knows.
