Guys I just started playing on my old account, @kyuoun. I would really appreciate any pointers or any assistance because I have no clue what's going on in Neo anymore 😋

@brookie
I'll be glad to help you!
The habitarium is so fun and (from friends in the guild) it is supposed to be really good for making Neopoints at lv50 (highest level)
And it's fun

I wish I didn't work at times like these.. So I would have vacation and have more internet time ☹️

cynder95 • 13 July 2013 at 1:40 AM

Oh,because I left home for 3 months,I forgot about checking up on my neopets ever since I came back.

Oh well,my account name is Kiarie95 if anyone want to visit.(warning:Hetalia madness)

*bumps board*
I have a first world dilemma. 1k NC and there's nothing I want.☹️

Anyone want anything? I have about 4 gift boxes available.

trish • 27 July 2013 at 12:38 AM

@metaphor You should try the NC game Shenanigifts. 😊 I am absolutely obsessed with the NC wigs. *-*

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 1:47 AM

@trish

Ever since I completed the KQ token collections (with the exception of a few LE ones), I just don't have much use for NC. I don't really customize either. D:

tikimaki • 27 July 2013 at 1:57 AM

@metaphor
Can you send NC?

trish • 27 July 2013 at 2:00 AM

@metaphor

But wigs are amazing. *-* May I reserve about 150 NC and a gift box? Wig hunting. o3o

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:05 AM

In all honesty, wigs creep me out on neopets. Aha!

I'm in love with the NeoCash backgrounds though. ❤️

I've lost interest in Neopets. It'll randomly come back again, but then poof.

I can't seem to bring myself to part with all my things and shut my account down. It'll be... 9 this August I think. o-o

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:10 AM

The only reasons I'm really there are KQ and the fact I finally got my dream pet after months and months of searching. ;----; Otherwise, doesn't hold my interest much. xD

@trish

Sure, I just bought a token for a friend, so I have about 750 left.😊

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:12 AM

@metaphor

I think the second there's a plot I may run back to it. xD

I still check in on it. I was so horrible at naming my pets when I first started. Though, I suppose I was actually 10 when I made my account. Whoa. o-o

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:16 AM

@april__

I think I was 11 when I made my first account and had it for a while. But then I went on a hiatus and self-froze, thinking I was going to leave for good. Obviously didn't happen. The username was stupid though and my current username is awesome, so I don't mind. And I am slowly but surely building up this account. I am awful at collecting avatars though.

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:18 AM

@metaphor

I am too.

I have 249. Which is driving me crazy. I want 250. xD

Of course, my account is perma silenced so I can't even view the avatars I have. Which is annoying.

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:22 AM

@april__

Better than me. I have 234. I have such a weird collection too. I have some game avs, but very few pet or petpet avs and I don't have a lot of item avatars. I really wanted the NT Writer av. Guess who got into issue 601 of the NT? -________-

Ugh, one time I was permasilenced for something they totally took out of context so I sent them a ticket, and they unpermad me. I've gotten suspended for saying some really dumb things that only TNT can take the wrong way, but whatever.

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:26 AM

@metaphor

Honestly? o-o I'm jealous that you got it fixed, but congrats.

I was a loyal member for many years. My cousin got tired of his account so he tried to make quite the exit...

It ended with all neopets accounts that had used that IP address... getting perma silenced.

TNT never replies to tickets, I get they have a huge user base but... And then when they did reply, months later, they didn't even look into the issue. I just got an automated response explaining the reasoning for the silence, which I'd received in a neomail already.

Needless to say, I was annoyed. xD I'm over it now though.

TNT has some ridiculous filters. I often have to re-read my neomails only to find something that's wrong with it cause it won't send but I can hardly ever figure out what it is.

If you end up going for some item avatars, let me know. Maybe I can help.

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:30 AM

@ april__

I'm surprised I got it fixed. I wasn't expecting anything, but I sent in a ticket anyway. I guess now they're a little harsher on me now. xD

Both times I was suspended, I got locked out of account for several days after my suspension due to some looping error. I sent a ticket and they had it fixed relatively quickly. I'm not fond of TNT really, but they do seem to respond to me in a reasonable amount of time. They also were prompt in helping me address a dilemma I was having with a compromised pet.

Same here. I was giving someone BD advice once and it would not let my nm go through. I kept going back and trying to figure it out. Oh...I said snowballs. -_____-

I just need Meowclops, Chokato, and of course the big three, which I don't have much interest in at the moment. I just want Dom (2439 uggggh).

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:32 AM

@metaphor

Huh. Well, I think it makes sense. Obviously you buy Neocash? I never have. Back then I couldn't, and now that I can now I'm totally unimpressed and have no interest. xD I do have to wonder if I bought some if they'd reply more quickly...

And oh! Good luck.

If you need some extra collat, let me know. I could help you out. 😃

And big three? I only remember two. I must get back into the site sometime...

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:39 AM

@april__


Well, I guess I wasn't just being a crazy when I came up with the "it's cuz I bought crap" theory haha. Sorry they treated you so unfairly. That's not nice of them. One of the reasons Neo just is not fun...

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:47 AM

@metaphor

I don't think it's unfair on purpose. Slightly annoying, yes. But I suppose with their huge user base they have to prioritize? And who wouldn't prioritize the money making, right? xD

When I'm rich, I'll test my theory. XP

Ironically, I lost interest in Neopets when I got really into Egg Cave. >_>

Of course, if I found a way to get a UC Faerie or Grey Kougra, I'd return in a heart beat and never leave. Those ones are just stunning and amazing.

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 2:55 AM

@april__

I can see that, it just seems a little off-putting to be so obvious about it when you used to always go on about spiels about always being free, etc. But yeah, they are a business after all.

I lost my interest when I found Subeta. Better art and all, it was refreshing to see. Then I lost interest in Subeta (once you have everything you want there, it all kinda just sits and looks pretty and then there's nothing left to do). Then I got into Rescreatu for a while, then that got boring. Then a friend introduced me to EC (still not sure how she found this site, but I am thankful she did xD It just doesn't seem like her thing). Now I'm here, Kingdom Sky, and Neopets (I should just say KQ because that seriously about all I do).

I used to have a UC Faerie Kougra. She was just for trading up so I didn't have her for long.☹️

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 2:58 AM

@bluewolf

I know that feeling on neopets. I also agree with Neopets always having a place in my heart as well. I did grow up with it. I remember when McDonalds had the toys. I can't even recall how long ago that was.

@metaphor

They are stunning. And the UC Grey Kougras are beyond adorable.

I still have a lot of goals on the site but they all seem so far away and I got lazy. I reached my neopoints goal, well the first one. And have yet to go back to making 100k a day to finish. xD

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 3:02 AM

@april__

The McDonald's toys are actually why I joined Neopets, haha. I heard of the site before that (my cousin used to be addicted to it and I used to collect the plushes from Limited Too), but I never played. I remember when the lab zapped my eyrie darigan. Happiest.day.of.my.life...as a 12 year old. xD That was my dream pet ever since I began playing and was my dream pet when I started back up, for both nostalgia and because it's a gorgeous pet!

@bluewolf

They are indeed very strict. I've been suspended for some silly things. Now I'm just careful about what I say, but trust me, it's hard. I've seen people get in trouble for talking about makeup, their dog falling down the stairs (o___0), etc...


You are now eligible to use 'Count von Roo's Deadly Dice' as an avatar on the NeoBoards!


Yay, av 235! Can't believe I didn't have this one. 😋 See what I mean? I have the strangest av collection. Can't wait for the seekers av. ;---;

april__ • 27 July 2013 at 3:04 AM

@metaphor

My favourite pet is very simply coloured but she was my first pet. And I think it suits her!

She's a spotted Kougra. And one of my least valuable pets but the one I'd never give away. I'm greedy with her.

I should adopt out a couple I have though. I zapped them with the lab and have no interest in keeping them. xD

metaphor • 27 July 2013 at 3:25 AM

@april__

Awww, Spotted Kougras are cute!

My first painted pet ever was a Christmas Bruce. I remember being so excited, since I bought the Paint Brush myself and everything. xD Its name was awful of course. 😋

My favorite pet I have now other than my Eyrie is my Mutant Lenny. I got his name during the recent name purge, Gregor. I was going to trade it, but now I'm too attached and it makes up for Rome which I ended up trading.

I still have other names sitting around, plus a pirate Draik which I honestly just made because I needed the avatar and I found a nice name.

mastergemma • 27 July 2013 at 5:25 AM

@metaphor

I absolutely LOVE the Neopet toys from Maccas!!!
Ahh, everytime we go to a fete my sister and i will always look for Neopet toys within the bins of soft toys
I also have the Faerieland playset and most of the neopet playsets (they were on sale XD)
Oh, and a few of the plushies 😊

I swear looking for Neopets merchandise is so fun XD
I probably love doing that more than the website XD

metaphor • 6 August 2013 at 1:29 AM

Dear people who keep sending me guild requests: I don't care if your guild has free archeopteryx rides and Stephanie-March-reading-from-the-phone book Wednesday. I ain't joining. And no, your bypassing the guild invite option to send me an nm on why your guild is soooo special will not change that.

Thank you! :K

persona • 6 August 2013 at 2:31 AM

lol understandable XD

I love my guild but it has been so boring lately.

Sometimes I want to join a new guild but at the same time XD idk i've been in that guild for like 2 years so I would feel weird leaving.
