    So you stated your own theory as fact?

    I don't know even a small % of those who've been frozen that we know of used a proxy. Why do you think I said it can't apply to this situation?


    Yes because at the same time as your accounts been frozen, Alot of accounts on gaminggutter were being frozen and it was trailed back to a surge freeze in proxys wink.gif

    You guys gotta be smart on how you use proxies. Any accounts I use a proxy on I expect it to be flagged and therefore gotta do what you gotta do quick cuz any proxy I can find, many other people can also find and you don't know the % of the others using it to hardcore cheat.

    Nor have I, don't think Brad has either.

    And you guys got frozen? I have a crazy theory I told JAU which I might look like a retard if I say but I'll wait for him to either say its possible or rule it out completely. Don't ask don't tell policies of TNT. blink.gif

    Whoa. Seems like a drastic measure to take. Your members will just go to other communities to sell and might stay. 1we8.gif

    A lot of people already do that. The fact is we are and have a better community than the other sites.

    I would agree entirely...i do trading outside of this forum but i think this site is a community, we help each other out rather than try scamming each other like most neopet forum sites

    o.o How would people buying/selling for USD be linked to getting frozen? Its safer to use USD then it is neopoints.

    If 1 account is transfered a pet, and the other gets neopoints its kinda easy to tell they sold a pet. If you use USD, they only see half of the trade and wont know it was a trade. When a pet just gets transfered to 1 account and the other looks like it gets nothing, it looks more legit.

    Not allowing USD is pointless.

    I'm most likely going to piss someone off with this comment.

    Learn the difference between fact and opinion.
    Opinion - What you think.
    Fact - Something that can be proven.

    To be honest, I like the community on my site better then the one on neocodex. I'm not saying neocodex has a bad community, I'm just saying its not "better" then some of the other sites.

    It'd take too long to get into to explain exactly why the rule got changed.

    And actually, from an objective point of view we have a higher age than the average cheating site, which generally comes with a higher maturity level and intellect, we have less spam, and less scammers. Generally all points which make the community better overall. Oh, and we don't get shut down or close the site on a regular basis wink.gif Nor do we get legal letters for our conduct.

    But as it's fairly impossible to say with certainty which community is better or worse.


    Age doesn't determine maturity level.

    You have less scammers because your members judge people way too fast, which leads to members leaving. If you haven't noticed, neocodex doesn't seem as active as it used to be.

    My site closed multiple times do to inactivity and not having enough money to pay for hosting. We solved both problems, and now are more active then ever.

    From the comment above, your members seem to think it is possible to say which community is better.

    I'm not here to say my site is better or to start a fight, but it annoys me when people call an opinion a fact.
