If you're accessing your main all the time from one IP, then you should SS from that same IP unless you were to go with the story that "my account was hacked" should you get frozen. That would be about the only reason I could see using a different IP address to SS from the one that's normally used on the account. However, not too many "hackers" out there are just going to get in your account and randomly submit high scores for avatar/trophy purposes. So I'd say if you're going to SS, just do it from the same IP as the one you normally use on your account. Others can feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
Personally, for my main, I prefer to AOB. Feels safer. Other than that SS FTW.

I prefer to keep things off the "home" IP however Like federation stated its best to have your acct saying IP 1.1.1.1.1.1.1 all the time rather the ss'ing with other ips.....
as federation said i prefer to aob as well
but if you have been lucky without reviews continue on
my guide is only meant to help reduce people getting iced
Since there have been some folks asking how to avoid it
@(you need an account to see links)
Also be wary of the locations of the free proxies you use. Those China, Russia, and 3rd world country proxies are common spam/hack sources, and TNT will definitely raise an eyebrow if they see that.
How likely is it that someone is getting amazing game scores from Afghanistan, Uzbekistan, or Syria? They have more important things to worry about than getting trophies on Neo...
Lol, I find that the US ones work best, so naturally I'm attracted to those. Valid point however.
@(you need an account to see links), but it would be fishy if I suddenly switched to using one proxy every time I log into my main, wouldn't it? Isn't it too late now? o3o
Not necessarily. People move. Just make sure you update your profile with the same state that your IP is from.
what fed said u can also put on your lookup if u wish... i recently moved.... or whatever
probably dumb question: things like cheat engine, non-flash autoplayers like cliffhanger, shapeshifter, score sending, AoB - do any of those have automated proxies or are they all sending info from my IP?
I sent a score of 2870 for TNT staff smasher. The score is up for review. Am I going to get ICED? My account is 8 yrs old and I have built it up nicely. Should I start transferring items to another account so I don't lose everything? The score isn't a reviewable score, maybe it was too quick. After the game was finished, it was a bit before sending it, as I debated. I should have not sent it. Any thoughts.
