Neo-Rules..... Simplified

(note:not all rules are on this page, I put them on when I think of them, if you think of any which are not on here or you think I may be mistaken, nm me and I will check)
Lookups
- Nothing adult, violent, religious, or in any way could be deemed offensive by certain parties, including unsuitable music
- No personal info, including school name, e-mail, full name, cell/mobile number etc.
- All stats must be shown
- No pictures of yourself or someone you know, but places (not locally to where you live), building (as long as not where you live) pets and celebrities are fine
- No off-site urls, with exception of credits on pre-made layouts from offsite places
Guilds
- No contests with prizes, but activities without prizes are fine
- No asking for donations at all including asking members to buy things from your shop
- No advertised giveaways (including birthday packs and newbie packs), but giving random gifts is fine
- No points for prizes or gifts is allowed - again, random gift-giving is fine
- No off-site webbies - use a petpage
Boards
- All threads on the boards must be Neo-related and must be appropriate to the board it is posted on (no shop ads on the help board, for example) but some boards like newbie boards allow, to a certain degree, non-neo chat
- No topics that break the rules, such as religion, adult, political topics or personal problems
- No advertised giveaways
- No posting off-site urls, even of well-known places
- No asking for or giving out e-mail, messenger or any other personal info such as own personal site
- You can post a username of someone, say to thank them for a gift, but no harrasment of this person or lying about them in hope other people will harrass them or report them i
- No asking others to report or neomail someone as this is considered harrassment
- No namecalling, even if you think someone deserves it. Calling someone a "n00b" is fine, but say calling someone stupid or an idiot would not be acceptable
Shops
- While you may price as high as you like, you must in no way price high and ask people to buy, that would be considered begging
- You may only advertise on the shop ads board
- No using shop as a gallery
- It's important if your use a background for a shop either premade or made specially that you can see the shop prices, bear in mind, even if it works for browzer you use, if it doesn't work correctly on another browzer, TNT could clear it
- No asking for donations
Accounts
- You can have up to 5 active accounts at once (1 main and 4 sides) TNT prefers them to be on the same e-mail, but it's not against the rules to be on different ones
- On side accounts you cannot: play games, do dailies, do contests, have a shop (unless it's a guild account, you are leader of guild and you use shop for guild), do voluntary quests, or use auctions or trades (except to transfer your NP and items to and from main)
- On side accounts you can: do random quests as long as you buy item on main or get the NP from main, use the soup kitchen, use the healing springs, use the neolodge if you transfer NP you need from main, have the lab ray if it was bought with money from your main, and keep any items/NP you get from rand events and either use them or send them to main and sell them
- You may make a side account into a main account if you wish, but you must not do it too often and you must take a break from playing any games for a few days so TNT doesn't think you have been cheating
- Everyone in a household must have their own e-mails for their accounts and it is not a good idea to send gifts to each other too often
- No sharing of accounts, ever. If a person is too young or is unable to navigate due to illness or disability a family member or friend can navigate for them but never play the site for them
- No giving away, taking, buying, selling or swapping accounts, ever. Even if it's not a scam, it is considered cheating. If someone doesn't want their account anymore they can pound their pets, donate NP and items and self-freeze
Miscellaneous
(I will add rules which fit into no other category as I think of them)
- No buying or selling neopets with NP or items
- No paying for or asking for payment for services such as layouts
- Pet trading is allowed, at owners risk, and it must be pet for pet not pet for np or items. Also when you are trading neopets, if one person makes a custom and paints the pet, the other person can't back out on them when they have spent np...(please refer to editorial 434 for updated rule, tried to post a link, this will have to do for now)
