How risky is it?

[sorahloveless]

Hi everyone,

I recently returned to Neopets, still on my main account from 2006. Having the dream of owning certain UC Pets I've been thinking about purchasing them ( good thing of being a grown up ).
I'm worried of how risky it could be to move away 3 of my current Pets to get 3 UC instead. I really don't want my main to be frozen
Do you guys have any advice? Should I move them to a shell or even to an account on another email first?

Thank you

I'm not sure exactly how risky it is. I put the bought pet on my side, give it a couple of weeks, and then trade one of my main account pets for the new pet. I haven't been frozen.

This is about right. A good seller will give you the entire account (complete with birthday, PIN, e-mail used to create it) so you can log in for a week or two and then trade.

Just trade your current pet for the UC. You can abandon the current pet later, if you'd like someone else to enjoy it.

Yeah just make sure you don't move everything at once and you will be fine, especially if you don't use the boards.

It really depends on how active you are on the boards and who will notice that all of a sudden you now have three UC pets where you used to have converted pets. The pets can be as safe as possible and you could take every precaution in the book... but if you have nosey neofriends and such, you will get in trouble.

With that said, as long as you're patient when moving things and lay low for a little bit after moving them, you shouldn't have any problems. The most important part when moving UCs is to start with safe UCs from the get go. I've had lots of people move the highest tier pets in the game and have issues. I've also had people move the lowest tier pets and get caught the very next day. You have to be smart, considering buy pets is essentially an investment.

If you have anymore specific questions or are looking for pets, let me know. I've got a little bit of everything and can help you out

I moved UCs onto my main account, sometimes right away, and I haven't been frozen. I also avoid the boards like the plague. Going there is asking to get frozen when you're illegit.

since you have just returned from hiatus, i'm thinking it's unlikely any of your neofriends are still playing so you should be pretty safe! as long as you avoid the boards like the plague

if you buy from a seller who gives you the entire account, i would use a vpn and act active on that account for perhaps a week or two exchanging neomails with yourself asking to trade c:
and because i'm extremely paranoid, i still go on on the account once in a while after the trade occurs.

I think a good seller helps a lot. I put 3 rare UC pets on my RW account and Im guessing people reported them already because of the is this pet UFT emails I get. But Im not frozen. However I have seen some pets from my seller get frozen when they post on the PC right after the purchase. But what I did is I didnt go on any oards for the past 2 years with those pets
