Safe to trade between multiple accounts?
rusty89
I have two accounts and I'm running out of gold storage on my main account. Is it safe to trade gold to my other account? or do I risk having my account ban for trading 100k gold to another account for nothing in exchange?

i'm pretty sure when they do an IP check and realize the accounts are from same IP, they will know the accounts are yours
i believe a flag just goes up when there are multiple gold exchanges on one account with nothing in return

I have multiple accounts and have been moving stuff back and forth all the time. Usually it is not money tho, but there are things like z-keys and gifts being consolidated onto one account to use or sell.
Others in our guild also have multiple accounts so obviously they are moving goods and I'm sure one is moving serious gold since he is always maxing out his primary storage.
*Shrug* Be honest about what you do and it shouldn't matter.

I always keep some random stuff on my secondary account so when i give high end items to it, it always gives my primary account say some aged ale.

Just throw in 1 mat or something to be safe. Doesn't really hurt with these sorts of things and you can always trade it back when you're done transferring gold.

I trade large amounts of stuff between both my accounts and have never had a problem with it. This includes gold dumps and one sided item trades. Both accounts are not under the same PlayNC account, but both are under my name, so that might have something to do with why I've never had a problem. They're also both in the same guild, so that may make a difference as well.

I've been trading between multiple accounts for years now. I have an everlasting transmogrifier that I do a one sided trades several times a week so I can make multiple candy corn guys dancing in the GH.

Also had no problems been moving huge piles of goodies left to right

Same here, Ive got multiple accounts spread over a few guilds and do one sided trades most of the time. I have not been banned yet for any of these trades as they are all registered under my name and trading is always between accounts on the same IP.
All of us saying that we have not been banned is however not a sure indication or confirmation that you can not be abanned. If you are seriously worried, send Anet a Ticket asking if it is OK to trade betwen multiple accounts on the same IP and give them the Account names of all your accounts as well as the programm you are planning on using (Also state that you know that Anet will not take responsibility if the 3rd party programm should break your Computer or corrupt your files).

call / email them the ip address your using and your account(s) info and send it to them telling them whats going on.

If transferring any large value item ect between my various accounts I do it in an explorable area.
Then I just type in chat transfering to my other account and take a screenshot thus showing no infringement of any kind is going on.
Not saying thats the best way but I know I have a screenshot should a situation arise showing both my accounts in same party screen

I transfer items and money between my 2 accounts for about 2 years. Many trades without anything in return. No problems. They are in different guilds, but registered on the same master account and always run on the same machine (one in vmware player for the first few months, then I used mgwml for a few months, then gwmultilaunch for the last 1.5 years).

I have 3 accounts, plus a friend who i trust, and we do big one sided trades all the time. Never had any problems as of yet. If you want to be 100% safe, Highlander's way of doing things in the above post is pretty smart.

I have 6 accounts + one storage account and I traded lots of stuff between accounts including gold and DID get banned. But then I had 7 accounts, which is uncommon.
So, I wrote to NCSoft and showed them the evidence that I actually do own 7 accounts, none of which were robot accounts, so they released me from the ban and flagged my accounts as safe and I haven't been bothered since.
I am an extreme case with 7 accounts, but even an extreme case can get all sorted out if there's actually a good honest person, not breaking any rules, behind the accounts being traded amongst.

worse thing that would happen anyway is you would get banned and have to prove that the accounts are yours

I know people who have 60+ accounts from when the Tourney house was around. They would just use GWML and load up a few accounts at a time, get the points, and trade the keys over to their main accounts. From what I understand, none of their extra accounts got banned, and I'm sure that Anet can't say that you having more then 1 account is unfair and ban it, I'm pretty sure that you would have to be doing something against the EULA to get perma banned. Plus having more then 1 account is NOT against the EULA, nor is trading stuff between the 2 accounts. They would have prove that you were doing something wrong on either of the accounts to do something to ya.

Transferred 100k from one account to another and got banned within 24 hours.
Contacted support and got it unbanned by getting them to check that the IPs were the same. Lesson: Make sure you can prove that it wasn't real money trading because they aren't proactive about checking. As far as they are concerned, the onus is on you to prove it was legit, not them to prove it wasn't.

yeah i got lots of accounts and my friends who quit gave me thier accounts, i am constantly trading large amounts of ectos between them and fingerscrossed never had a problem so far 
go cubs
I as well trade large amounts of gold between my accounts, a few days ago i traded 2000k between 3 accounts and i havent gotten banned yet so it should be fine to do whatever you do as long as you control both on the same IP
Diab Soule
I have two accounts and have traded large amounts of money between both no problem. One account is on a master account the other is not. If you did get banned I don't see why you wouldn't be able to get your account back. I can't see how anet could see having multiple accounts as being unfair, the more accounts/games you buy the better for them.

hahaha this is anet people. You can move a 100k from one account to another.. Add a few stupid items to the trade if it makes you feel better

If you are still kinda nervous or are going from different ips for some strange reason *cough* just head outside a town and drop.

the gold selling algorithm might pick you up, so trade a q13 fell blade or something with your 100k

I've done one-sided trades to my mule accounts for a couple years, and never had a problem. It could be because the accounts are all tied to the same master account, and logged in at the same ip. Since support supposedly verifies before banning, that fact alone should keep you safe.
