[GUIDE] Fly Under the Radar by Legitimizing Your Account
So it's happened. You've either restarted fresh, are recovering from having your main frozen, or have bought a shell. And you have no idea what to do to not stick out like a sore thumb among the countless other users on the website as you build or rebuild up into something more. The following guide is aimed at helping you build up and legitimize how your new (or recently inactive) account looks to other users, and, with some time, patience and a bit of luck, not draw any negative attention towards you.
Legitimizing your account is not an overnight process. Some of these tips may take you weeks or even months to get yourself looking presentable, but it's worth it in the long run. Having an account that doesn't look as if it's an obvious shell or throwaway means you'll have an easier time flying under the radar and continuing about your business without any trouble.
We'll be heading into the beginning of our guide with the two biggest and probably most obvious parts of your account: Your userlookup, and your pets. These are very likely the first two things other users will notice and judge about your account, and getting them both looking presentable is extremely important.
Shops and galleries. Everyone has them, and with how economy-driven Neopets is, you'll need to get these up and running eventually too. You may as well build them up in a similar way to the rest of your account, as every little detail helps you ultimately pass muster.

If you've come this far, you may as well continue on by adding yet more flair to your lookup. Avatars, a Neodeck, Stamps, and Trophies do a lot for helping an account look played in and thus, more legit. They really are a cheap and easy way to get those numbers up.
There's just a bit more to do before you've got an account that not only looks legit, but is hopefully a safe haven for whatever it is you're trying to do on Neopets as a whole.
While you're doing everything above, I do have a few extra warnings and cautions for you to help keep yourself out of the public gaze, and hopefully unfrozen until you look a bit more believable.
Really the general idea is to have your account look not only lived in, but loved. A tiny bit of time and attention being poured into each section of the site that is visible to other people can go a long way to keeping others from suspecting you as a cheater. I've built up and helped others build up their accounts over time using the above tips, and I can promise that as long as you're not doing anything to draw unwanted attention to yourself, they really do help the public gaze look the other way.
