I vote no. Emphatically NO. As a tech support person, these types of sites give me the chills. You won't believe the types of viruses, adware, and spyware people get and they don't even know about, by using them. And also, they're hard as hell to remove. It doesn't matter if you use a 'spam' account/fake email, you will still get the 'hidden prizes' if you visit these sites and click their links.

Use them at your own risk, but if Mabiguru gets into it, I'm not going to do it.

Save your money. Ask people in your family for birthday money instead of gifts. Or get a job. Don't resort to someone else's underhanded tactics to spread their maliciousness across the web, simply because you want to play with a certain feature of a game.

Obviously enough, I vote no. I've already shared my opinion on sites like this, loophole in the free-NX system or not.

That, and all I hear is that they spam this, spam that, spam spam spam. As a person educated on network and internet security I wouldn't touch this site with a ten foot pole, even with a fake e-mail address or street address.

The only thing you really need in the game is a rebirth every other month or so.
Gathering 8 dollars in the course of 2 months isn't hard. Theres bound to be a quarter or two under the couch.

You can walk up to cvs or target and buy a 10 dollar nx card. And don't be stupid. Don't spend the 2000 nx you have left after buying a rebirth. Save it for the next rebirth, and eventually you'll have another free rebirth from adding it all up.

Even if the store that sells it isn't in walking distance, you can always go and buy it when you visit for another occasion.

*no one needs to know that you bought it if your parents are against it*

When I was younger, I could barely walk out of my yard. (15 were talking about here.) Walking to CVS was also a good 8 miles.

Anyway... This poll will be closed soon, though the result seems obvious. If you have any more comments you would like to post please do so.

I agree with Kitae. That's what I'm doing as well (saving my leftover NX after buying the Fantasy Life Club, etc.) even though some things in the cash shop are very tempting.

I can understand the frustration about not being able to buy things without your parent's permission, or even about transportation to a store that sells NX. However, it's not like it's completely impossible.

Sit down and calmly talk to your parents in a rational manner. Explain what you need and why. Show them the game, even offer to let them play sometime. Or ask to do chores around the house for money, so you can save it for your NX.

There is always a better solution than this... however I see the way this poll is going, and it saddens me. Have fun getting the trojans, etc. off your computers.
