you do know if you get caught doing it you get fine bad....
but you bend it around the back and swipe a few times untill it says please swipe at this turnstop(forgot) again
and then unbend it and swipe and there you go
note: only works with the ones that was used as money ones

Naw zh0u!!! you almost got it... you going to be seeing a whole lot of people consuming their time doing what you just had suggested... of course that's what's the po po look for... da fool who bends and re-swipers... good luck it takes more than a bend to get free rides... :o)

It doesn't matter because the MTA is coming up with a "solution" to stop that. Probably getting new machines or new cards or something.

u bend the metrocard at a certain area(i forgot, used to do it when i went to high school because i never attended class to get a student metrocard) but u bend it and swipe until it says "swipe card at this turnstile again" u then unbend it and swipe and it usually says "GO". Used to do it all the time.
MaximaBoy
LOL the good ol highschool days....haha....goodluck not getting caught by undercovers....I think the fine might be $60 if you get caught...
yukichanxp
like lilRuffneckPrincess said... it takes more than a bend to get free rides, and careful if any of you's get caught.

My friend told me that u suppose to bend the back of the metro card (corner) like a triangle then swipe until it says ... then swipe it in another turn-site
It's been along time since i done that so i don't really remember but if u want to see it first hand just go to Harlem or around 186 st cause that's where u c all these kids trying to sell u that trick.


Condescending BASTARD
If u don't wanna share STFU aite
RyceBoy
OMG u ppl sooo STOOPID all u gotta do is jog every morning for 30 minutes

then when u need a train ride jus wait until the train pulls into the station and u hop the turnstop and u run run run and theres no way the pigs can catch u if u get into the train and the doors close

yep. i tried it on one station and two young female teens saw me and said "You Cheated!"....LOL... embarassedlaugh.gif2 embarassedlaugh.gif2 Some stations you can't do it on cause too many people are there. That's were the police monitor all those scammers selling $1 a swipe. You have to do it in locations where it's not monitored by security.

she could just start talking really fast in cantonese and the popo would belike WTFZOMGWTFISTHIS?

i dont live close enough to downtown to need to use the subway... all i know is how to cut a busticket right downthe middle to make two. so then you drop it in and pray to god it lands right side up. embarassedlaugh.gif

but now it's gay b/c they added the black stripes to BUS TICKETS. WTF? i mean do you need advanced technology like that for a bus ticket? now the tickets are huge. >__> they look awkward in a wallet.

so now people just ask their friend to take the bus, ask for a transfer, throw it down the window so you can get the transfer and use it.

we have such n00b skills. haha.
