I know that even if I lost it all I wouldn't quit...I'd just buy some more, and perhaps contact any special NFs through shells to see how they'd take me being on a different (and bought) account - not in as many words of course.
*~a ghost in the sunlight~*
It's all been on my main, on UC #3, a fine specimen of the higher kind which I think is dope, cheated a bunch, bought a bunch of shit, I think the success at the end of the day is that i'm enjoying the game alot. I hardly have to put effort, being able to just buy anything I really need so I can focus on the subtle parts of the game.
u 'mirin?
I have been AB-ing on my main for years and am still standing -knocks on wood-. My secret is moderation. I always stop after AB-ing only 4-5 items, and never longer than 4-5 hours a day, this has worked for me.
Also a big success story: I had an account that I created 8 years ago. Then about 2 years into playing I forgot about Neopets and then 5 years later wanted to continue playing with my old account, which didn't have anything worth much, just a sentimental value to me.
I still knew my pw and username, but had forgotten the birthday I signed up with, so found a nice soul who helped me for 500k NP, and I got my old account back. I was sooo surprised it hadn't been purged or stolen.
It was still there with my 2 pets, account intact. I use it as a side account now.
Success stories...well I just started playing about a month ago so no big successes so far :p
But it slowly but surely is looking like a decent main account. Only thing is; no AAA/plot trophies and such *sighs*
