About violating the rules of vp.

Voting LinkOnly collect real clicks by promoting your link on other websites, link exchange websites are not allowed and will be punished by removing pd/fans and a TO and if repeated you will risk permanent deletion of your account's

I think it was this one. Or this one.

Cheating/ScammingCheating on Virtual Popstar is not permitted. Cheating includes but is not limited to: using bots to click voting links, stealing money from another account, sending money from numerous side accounts, and manipulating glitches within the game.

First off, I don't even remember the last time I clicked the links on yarold, the link exchange website. The site runs on credits so once you run out of credits you can't get anymore. Sure I checked on it for my magistream links sometimes, but I'm too lazy to click and clear the tabs to bother clicking. It says that it's not allowed to use click exchange websites, but many people had used it in the past and probably still even now in the present. There was a time when I was inactive so maybe things changed.

Another thing is...the majority of the money I send myself from my side account was money I sent there so I wouldn't spend them and actually save money for when I actually need them. Not working out too well though.
I get that the whole sending money from side account thing and getting click for side account is wrong and that my reasoning won't make it right, but sending my money to another account so I won't spend it as much and sending myself the money back, is that so bad?

I didn't even realized I was on the voting link top 15. Well actually number 3 at that.

Honestly this stuff is best just messaged to a mod. If there was a mistake with the warning then it can be disregarded.

To make sure you don't get in trouble again can you delete that link exchange account so it doesn't happen again?

I guess I should do that, but if I think about it, it would kind of frustrates me if I got in trouble but the other people who do the same thing, using the link exchange site, gets away with it.

How do you know this though? It is frustrating and no one should get away with it but I don't know how you personally know who got in trouble and who didn't. If you know someone who is definitely cheating, report them

The whole voting clicks thing is a dumb system
Tbh I feel like everyone in that list is cheating

I guess the main reason I got in trouble was because I had two other accounts on there but that was so long ago that I started using it for getting more fans on those accounts that I sort of forgot about them, or thought they weren't a big deal.

but yeah I feel like the majority of people on the list isn't exactly doing the click thingy the "fair way" either.

Yeah if you don't know the main reason you got in trouble, ask. If you've just made a honest mistake, I wouldn't stress too much.

Yeah. I think the click thing should be removed completely because obviously people are just cheating the system to get prizes. You should get a reward for referring new members and that's it.

Talent scout: 10 ten players who bring the most new users to VP each week
They get HOF item
I think the top 15 of the month in voting link clicks also get a prize but I have no idea things may have changed

Kaj had been pretty hard on votes links and the mods have to follow suit. Like your reasoning isn't bad but it's still against the rules technically. But I think it's weird that it wasn't specified in your warning what you did wrong. And I think the warnings vary in degree and yours probably is a really minor one.
