My Little Brother Wants To Join...

Hey there. (: My little 10 year old brother has been watching me play and the poor kid gets all excited watching. xD I'm wondering what are the rules to having another account on the same IP address are? I know some sites are very strict with this, I just don't want to get banned. D: Thanks for the help! ^^

@saph as long as you post on your profile about it, you shouldn't get in trouble. But it may interfere with feeding, saying you've already fed a creature when it was really your brother.

@univea
Gotcha, do I tag his account? And would it be alright for us to be playing at the same time? Him on the laptop, me on the home computer? And are we also allowed to feed each others creatures? Sorry for the questions, I really appreciate the help!

@saph you can feed each others creatures and be on at the same time. Tag his account in your profile. 😉

Sounds good, thank you so much, I really appreciate it! 😊

@saph - If your brother and you open up eggcave on the same IP address , there is no problem on being banned , but if you use a storage account and open up the mysterious asteroid and the egg cave , the chances are there that you can be banned. If your brother and you open eggcave on different PCs , but with the same IP address, if he feeds your eggs first, you'll not be able to feed your eggs - THIS IS NOT A GLITCH , So , if you work on different IP addresses on the same computer or different computers, you can feed each others eggs without any problem . And one more thing, I have 3 computers with 3 different IP addresses at home in which many people use eggcave - I myself dont know their ids >.< , but yet no interfering problem happened, but when one computer was sent for repairs, my bro used mine for 2 days and I couldnt feed the eggs which he had fed untill i waited for some hours to feed again before he could feed them.

Hope so you understood,
Julie

@julie
I don't plan on using his account as a storage, I'd feel bad. Our accounts are both separate, is he still allowed to do the Mysterious Asteroid and Egg Cave though? D:

Sounds good, I'm not sure if our two computers have different IPs, I figured they'd be the same. Oh and on my profile I tagged him as my brother, should I also add 'please don't ban us' or is that enough? Thanks! 😸

@saph - There is no need to add please don't ban us,but if you both use 2 IP addresses, then there would be no interfering in the feeding process, but if you both use the same IP address, then the one who feeds first gets the EC, the other has to wait untill they can feed their eggs. And if you arent using that as a storage, then don't be afraid in opening the Cave and the Mysterious Asteroid.

Ah I figured, thank you kindly! 😸
Is changing the IP easy? D: They are the same, I can't feed his and he can't feed mine. Awesome, thank you! Am I allowed to gift him?

@saph
I think what you have on your profile is good 😊 Ian is very lenient. Remind him to put that on his profile 😊

@zafeyry
Thank you! (: It's great to know that staff actually understands other people in a household play. Yep he has the little tag on his profile as well. c:

@saph Your brother is free to create an account of his own here. 😊 He can visit the cave and you can trade between each other. There are several families who play on the same computers/networks and thus have the same IP addresses. The only problems you'd run into is the already mentioned "already fed these eggs" thing if you both try to feed the same eggs with one IP address.

So long as you don't take advantage of his account to get yourself more Le's you should be fine. 😊 If there are any other questions you have regarding this feel free to ask.

@orderedchaos
Thank you kindly! ^^ Yes, we've ran into that problem already, but it's not that big of a deal there are plenty of creatures to feed.

Gotcha. (: Am I allowed to gift him?

Orderedchaos • 22 July 2012 at 5:44 PM

@saph Yup. Feel free to gift him. 😊

@orderedchaos
Awesome! 😃 Thank you so very much! I really appreciate it.
