However this was later changed when account suspensions were introduced in November 2004. However, with the introduction of account silencing in September 2010, both of the previous methods of punishment have been used more leniently.

	Because of the several meanings of the word "[[wiktionary:frozen\|frozen]]", slang for being frozen has been created over the years. It is often referred to as being ''iced'', sometimes with references to ''[[wikipedia:Iceland\|Iceland]]''. Someone who is reporting another user for wrongdoing on the [[NeoBoard]]s may say "have fun in ''Iceland''" as an example.

	==~~Suspension~~==		==Warnings and Suspensions==
	In cases of more minor infractions, a player's account may be suspended or temporarily disabled, which often serves as a warning to a user. A suspended account works the same as a frozen account, in that it cannot be accessed by the user (the main page and a few other pages can still be viewed, though). Unlike a freezing, a suspension will wear off after a certain period of time (acting as a temporary freeze). According to the terms and conditions, an account can be suspended for up to 72 hours; however, some users have been suspended longer, sometimes reaching over 100 hours. After the suspension wears off, the user has to confirm that he understands why he was suspended and has re-read the rules so that he won't do it again. After being given a suspension, it's possible to be frozen much more easily, due to a warning already being given to the user.		In cases of more minor infractions, a player may receive a warning or a suspension instead of having their accounts frozen.

			An official warning from the Neopets Team will have a red exclamation mark in the event log, and it is a neomail from the Neopets Team with the message of telling the player what have they done wrong. Although a warning itself does not have any immediate effects to the player's account, the Neopets staff keeps track of the amount of warnings the user has received and the causes of the warnings, and being warned multiple times for violating the rules repeatedly could lead to the account being ultimately frozen.

			In a suspension, a player's account may be suspended or temporarily disabled, which often serves as a warning to a user. A suspended account works the same as a frozen account, in that it cannot be accessed by the user (the main page and a few other pages can still be viewed, though). Unlike a freezing, a suspension will wear off after a certain period of time (acting as a temporary freeze). According to the terms and conditions, an account can be suspended for up to 72 hours; however, some users have been suspended longer, sometimes reaching over 100 hours.

After being given a suspension, it's possible to be frozen much more easily, due to a warning already being given to the user.
