Well, that's going to make the Altador Cup even more tedious than normal, isn't it?? The team chats are full of off-topic nonsense inbetween scoring and suchlike. I remember having a full discussion about what we did whilst also playing endless SOSD last year that divolved into a full book recommendation list... Are they trying - I mean, really, actively trying - to destroy the site? I don't spend much time on the boards admittedly, but many of those who do are the most committed long standing players. Why are they trying to chase them away!? And child friendly until we look at the NC Malls Gatcha mechanics with capsules. Spend a fortune to not necessarily get the items you want and gamble on a low chance of getting the special edition item. Exactly how is that child friendly??

I caved

I'm mostly interested in Order, Sway or Awakened for the Refreshed Quest Request boon, but that's not an option now, so not sure yet.

The colour of the pet moves with the species change providing the pet you are morphing into has that colour. So a Woodland Kau could become a Woodland Hissi. There is however a workaround to get a pet of any colour through the perk. If the species you are morphing into does not have the colour your pet is currently painted, then you can pick any colour you want. So the Hissi for instance does not have Sketch as a colour. So if I morphed the pet I wanted to change species into a Sketch Acara, then started the Premium Perk and picked Hissi, it will tell me that the Hissi doesn't come in that colour. I can then pick ANY Hissi colour I want. Including lab only colours like Chocolate. That's how I got my MSP Poogle.

I kinda like the Relic... but not enough to want one. It's certainly striking. And it doesn't seem as... messy as the Kacheek with the different styles of rock. The Kacheek would have been better with just the stomach gem. The looks like a cross between a Haunted Woods idea and a drag queen? On the plus side, the claws and fangs are removable - I imagine there's going to be some fantastic cross paints out there! The eyes are stubborn. I've gone through most of the contacts and they look ridiculous or just don't work. However the Rolling Fog contacts make the red look less... severe and more like it's hiding beneath the stone. So @LekkerLekker89, this might be more what you were after? I do like that outfit. May have to be picking that up for my Royal/Halloween Lupe. May also zap random Lupes to see if I can't get those teeth from the Relic...! I like the addition of bonus items as well! Very cute!

I would be really interested to know what the average Neopets user's age is. I'm guessing it's mostly adults. (But then again, maybe that's just who I associate with.) Regardless, this decision makes approximately zero sense; the rules that were already in place about what you could and couldn't discuss on the boards seemed sufficient to me to keep things from getting "too" "real-life". I was so excited that TNT has started to be more openly inclusive and mindful of LGBTQ+ people and disabled people. But this feels like a HUGE step backward. And how is it more "child friendly" to punish people for talking about absolutely anything non-NP-related? I feel like a rule like that is harder for kids to follow than adults.

Transparent Food

I didn't read that right the first time I read your colour change...I thought it was PASTE! not Pastel bc I confused the (L) to be a ! and I was going to ask @Angeló wait, there is a new color called PASTE? Ewww!

General Rules This will be ran every Friday! Should it gain enough participation a section will be created for it, for now it will remain here (posted in Neopets General Chat). Make sure to read everything before posting! All TDNF rules will still need to be followed in this thread! (No double posting, spam, etc.) Please no posting wishes for pets in this thread, strictly for items/wishlists/shop links ONLY. This is not an item-grab nor a spot for you to beg for items. It is fully expected that if you post your wishlist here that you will gift at least one other user. Do not expect that another user will specifically choose you to gift to or that all your wishes will be granted. No DMing users begging for things & please do not be ungrateful for what you recieve! Let's have fun with this! Keep all your updates to one post please! When you receive a gift make sure to update your wishlist or post asap to avoid users sending duplicates. (Use the three dots in the top right corner of you post to edit it) To keep the thread clean use the spoiler tag for your thank yous/received items in your post. (Should you want to list them). [spoiler] content here [/spoiler] Guidelines This thread is about more than just posting what you want but to also to spread kindness and learn about each other! Every week there will be a question/prompt that is asked that you will need to provide with the rest of your info! If your username is not listed under your profile picture make sure to list in your post who people will be gifting. If you chose to put your shop link up instead of a wishlist please make sure to have a wide variety of items stocked in your shop for donations/shopping. (Junk items with different prices, different range of priced items, etc) This is P.I.F.F for a reason, if someone spreads some kindness to you make sure to do the same! If you want to list a bunch of items to a TP lot for a user please DM them with the link to the lot or the lot #. Please post in this format; Etiquette Be respectful and kind! No harassment of any kind! Proceed with caution when it comes to new users on Neopets & on the forums. Gift at your own discretion. Just because you gifted a specific user does not mean that specific user will gift back. If you wishlist is mainly high-priced items or Neocash items there is no guarantee you will be gifted. Weekly Question; A majority of us made our Neopets accounts when we were younger, but what is it that's kept you addicted?

Hi! My name's Aimee (or Captain_Jade on Neopets) and my sister introduced me to Neopets when I was... I think 11? And the thing that got me so into it was creating stories for my pets! As each plot comes out and I find more ways to build up the stories and "lives" of my pets that pulls me in further, that's probably what's kept me so addicted to it! Plus, going onto the art gallery and beauty contest and seeing other people's Neopets art is SO inspiring, how can I not? Seeking: Items off of Bonny's Wishlist! She loves books, but she also has some special gifts on her list that'll really make her day... Gifting: I can visit your shop or get'cha something off your wishlist!

Oh gosh. My wishlist is SO outdated at this point >_> I'll have to play with that some. I dunno if addicted is the right word for it, but I keep coming back because I like my little creatures, and it's easy enough/only a few minutes a day to interact with them most of the time. I've played too many phone games (especially) that are really fun in the beginning, but pretty quickly the devs become super greedy and you have to either pay a lot of cash, or be in the game enough that it feels like a second job to keep up. Aside from a week here and there (like with Altador) in neopets, I've never felt like that. Even trying to up my bank account like I'm currently trying to do before getting back into buying books, then all the rest of the random collectibles I'll never finish collecting) when I was getting burned out on the old flash games (**sigh**) I could just stop playing them for a bit and not miss tons of stuff or feel like I'd fallen so far behind that I'd never catch up. Even if TNT IS getting a lot more cash-grabby as time goes, it's nowhere near some of the games that have 1-2 events per week, and you've got to grind for energy for hours a day to be able to get halfway through any of them. Wait. What's that you say??? I have hobbies that AREN'T Android Game Clone #1,765,923? That's wild!

I came here hoping to get some chit-chat in for this summer's ACVIII! I am super excited. I am team Darigan Citadel all day, every day! The one season I did not play, we win, go figure! Super sad about that! But, I am here to make sure we win again this summer! I even dyed my hair to support my team!!! I am so excited and most definitely impatient!

The ray is fired at __Ms_Chocolate__... ... and she changes colour to Purple!! .. okay, I don't actually have that one yet!

The ray is fired at Toysaur... ... and she changes colour to Eventide!!

Today TNT woke up and chose chaos! All these items are for sale in the NC Mall for this week only. Nearly all of them have ... or had shall I say ... a value of over 15 GBC's. Some like the Radiant Sunflower Arbour were 25+ GBC. So if any of these retired items were on your wishlists, go and grab 'em quick! Values will decline significantly, but as they are only on sale for a week I suspect they will creep back up again at some point!

I had about 6000 NC sitting on there, I buy a big load of it every month from the Reddit Merch thread as it's a little bit discounted, helps me get boxes too! But I spent a lot of that on items, think I got at the very least double of most of them and 4-5 of others, I am sure things like the BG's, Cloak and blush (thoughts from hrtbrk and I agree!) will continue to be sought after. I'm kind of hoping some people just will miss it or older collectors come back after it's been gone for a bit, but hoping it will help me get my last few things I need.

I had the same issue originally and had to go find a post on Reddit to work it out. http://ncmall.neopets.com/mall/shop.phtml?page=&cat=#load_items_pane-browse-37 will hopefully work. But otherwise go to the NC Mall and click on Spring in the headings section. They all come up then Oh, how beautiful! All of the items are very nice, which along with the fact that they were rare and retired made them valuable I suspect. Nobody cares about ugly retired things! I haven't done anything with mine yet. I will have to update customs though!

I'm gonna swing from the chandelier From the chandelier I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist Like it doesn't exist I'm gonna fly like a bird through the night

Here I thought you were referring to THIS years tournament and I was just a wee bit freaked out (tbh..really freaked out)! I was wondering how the heck I missed the news of this tournament. ! totally read that wrong!

The ray is fired at Toysaur... ... and she changes colour to Spotted!! ooooooooooh lovely cheetah

Oh wow, I finally got it! https://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedtreasure/buriedtreasure.phtml?397,109 Anarchy_3_3 pulls out a ticket... and...

Mega Carmelon Smoothie (2000 NP)

The ray is fired at Toysaur... ... and she changes colour to Sketch!! Snow and Sketch are almost identical I now have two Mutant Walking Carpets on the same account ... what are the odds of that ?!!!

I love things like this, I had a pet reject eating this food that I might actually eat in real life myself, but then not reject one that was absolutely gross, these pets are crazy xD

OMG! The Awakened won and so did I. I'm really glad I went with them. I've been on a losing streak.

Today's Hop & Dye

This is a little late but if you're still wanting to keep this going I'd be happy to help, possibly taking turns in hosting each round might help as well. Prizes for contests are also allowed now by TNT so I wouldn't mind offering prizes for winners too. Might help people get into participating, maybe winning like a clothing item or NC item could be fun

The ray is fired at __Ms_Chocolate__... ... and he changes colour to Strawberry!! Now I have two! The ray is fired at SweetCoCoNuTtY... ... and he changes into a Red Kacheek!!

The colours a tad simplistic but is certainly striking. I do love the clothes though. Particularly the metallic costume which is really, really pretty. But the rattle snake is also cool! I've now got two hissi's on my bonus side. I need more pet slots on my main side and baby side to move them across. HisssyFits is going to be my baby and I'm not sure what I'm going to do with Hissdras yet, I already have Voldermorts who is Halloween/Transparent cross. I do like Candy and I don't have any candy pets, so that's a possibility...

Oooo these are all amazing! I still have my heart set on a mutant hissi, but that rainbow outfit is really making me second guess that. I wonder what it looks like on other colours? Because it looks like overlay is individual scales...

Wow, I really like ALL of the accessories!

Miracles never cease! Back up stamp for the SDB!

Yeah, I can understand that haha, it is a bit much. On one hand, I do feel like the rubies compliment the dark colors of the Relic design, but at most they could just do a few gemstones laid into the body, like they've been chipped away and hiding underneath the stone. Ignoring the big eyesores, this one isn't so bad. I like the little fern near it hehe. The Luperus outfit is quite cool! It's just a red velvet Cerberus doggy! And, similar to the Kougra Day idea, there's a new set of other wearables, also in 4s! Each are cute in their own way, the Chia one is a bit creepy when you think about it, but I like that they try to keep it cute anyway lol. A... creative day, to say the least, Lupes!

Whoa... did it actually work? Sure looks like it. Your Petpet has been transformed. Imagine that.

Here is a thread about a previous trolling session. I didn't know people were making new accounts just for this. That's irritating. I don't know what the reason is. I thought it was previously in response to complaints about something, but who knows.

I wanted to make a few people aware of this in case people didn't know, but I believe that it is important enough information for people, especially those that use the boards. Neopets has changed a bunch of their chat rules, or rather are starting to enforce things more harshly as to what you can and cannot talk about. According to this post here; many users have been reporting getting warnings & bans/freezes for discussing non-neopets related things after TNT had allowed such chats in the Newbie Board on the Neoboards. The Newbie Board/Chat use to be a pretty big space for general chatting between users and has been that way for a couple of decades now. If you scroll down a little bit further in the above mentioned post you can see more detailed information. To paraphrase; Neopets is owned by a company called Netdragon who has a CEO who is an AI and it recently deleted the accounts of Adam and Donna who were the LITERAL creators of Neopets, shortly after that the Newbie Board got re-vamped/changed to "New to Neopets" and a "General Discussion" board was put up that users have been asking for a while for. Excited to see this board up many user went over to it and began posting away. About a day later TNT makes up a new rule with no official warning that we cannot talk about anything none related to neopets on the boards, including non-neopian related clothing and food! If you even so much as mention a hat it must be a neopets hat. This is an ACTUAL example given by a staff member Alice, which I will post a screenie of below. They then began freezing & issuing warnings to people that posted non-neopet related things on the board called general discussions. After days of people contacting TNT wondering why the warnings, bans, etc were happening they FINALLY made an announcement saying; no non-neopets talk is allowed on ANY of their boards & that they started freezing & warning people on the newbie chat for posts that were made days before the rules changed & this is all because neopets wants to be 100% child friendly. (Yet they're selling wine glasses in the merch shop, have had irl events at bars and many not-so-child friendly items, references and events LOL) I don't really know what this means for guilds or personal DM's as the message from Alice does specifically say "OUR BOARDS", so guild may still be safe for general discussion as although they are on neopets, they're not official boards, but I am not sure if this is actually the case. Same goes for DM's, I would hope/assume they are, but I have no real idea or any way to really know. I just know that this will cause a lot of people to move to chatting offsite for sure. (If they weren't ALREADY doing that.)

Oh, I'm definitely around for the nostalgia now. I had a long hiatus and came back during COVID and lockdowns in 2020. Spent a small fortune on the site - I'm really not joking. I went from virtually no NC to most of my wishes complete and a trading list that still makes me wonder how much I really spent... (http://impress.openneo.net/user/44099-Secre/closet). I spent hours on the site collecting 100k from Flash games Monday to Friday. Managed All-Star 2020, Double All-Star 2021 and then started to lose interest in 2022 only managing level 14. Now... I spend months without playing and even when I am 'active' like now, it's mostly half an hour for dailies and occasional NC trading. There just isn't much to do on the site and it's boring. With that in mind, why oh why are they restricting one of the few areas of the site that actually works further!? I'm clearly out of the loop as I just found the Sorry Mummy Sorry thing stupid when I clicked on it. Not sure I want to Google it to find out why it's inappropriate though! ... You aren't even meant to have a Reddit account until you are 13 years of age. So how is linking it child friendly!? Oh, TNT have been making bad decision after ban decision lately. NFT's aren't really their fault. But the chaos of the AC, games that hadn't been fixed since the previous year when they were broken, rampant cheating and shadow bans definitely were. As is the new policy of requiring access to the ORIGINAL email used to set neopets up if you can't gain access to your account. Even my BANK doesn't require that and my bank has my actual pay cheque being deposited into it! People set accounts up as children. They used parental emails, discarded emails, emails that have long since been defunct as the server that hosted them no longer exists. If they have updated their account settings, then the current email is what should be required. Then you have the lack of events (Charity Corner), broken promises (Premium sale)... and now this. It's seriously like they want to destroy the site.

Yeah I'm with Faerieland and we always talk about stuff like that too around AC season. Heck there's even the premium boards which is a bunch of nonsense and the word associate game that goes on both on premium and regular boards. They also have encouraged players to go on reddit too, even though you can't talk about reddit on the site. They made a "Sorry Mommy Sorry" meme on their official Tik Tok (which is highly inappropriate), can look at the comments on that one with people getting upset and saying "I'd get frozen for saying this on the boards". I mean even the april fools joke this year! Plot about staff members being brutally murdered, got neopets that eat other neopets, items that are highly questionable xD There's been board that have also been allowed to stay up (PUBLIC BOARDS) about BDSM and the like. So I don't really know what they're doing. I've been a huge supporter of Neo and still will be around, but at this point I mainly stay for the nostalgia and for the people I've met along the way. I like to give the staff some slack cause I know their a small team with a HUGE player-base, I mean even after the possible AC soft-bans/shadow-bans last year, NFT and data leak scandal, I still was like "let's not be so harsh guys, the main neo team didn't want the NFT's" but it's like come on guys, I'm trying to give ya the benefit of the doubt, throw us a bone LOL Today's news post is even telling people to go onto the reddit. O.o

TDN welcomes you to the month of May! Links: Home | Battlepedia | Customisation | Items Database | NeoAvatars | Forums This month, we have these events: Lupe Day on May 2nd Hissi Day on May 4th Tyrannian Victory Day!!! on May 12th Moehog Day on May 14th Koi Day on May 25th Yurble Day on May 28th

Could be worse, I suppose! Looking forward to Lupe and Hissi day. I may have to create a Hissi for an eventual baby pet...

Several gross foods, but a decent yield nonetheless.

I didn't screen shot the neggs today but I got a Neopia Negg and here's what I got! Also the Hop and Dyes last day for the 1st Negg and I got and a bonus prize I activated the next Negg and the 1st prize is

I've been trying games I never play here is the latest! It's an easy game and I don't know why I never played it.

Nothing too exciting for me! If anything, more boring than last month's!

Seems like a weird way to protest something. Why devote this much time and Neopoints? What does this even really accomplish? 100 NP, while still a small amount, is actually worth more than most of the junk items you usually find at the money tree. So I don't really understand how this would inconvenience other players?

Does that have anything to do with the glitch/whatever weird thing where I can't take 10 items a day from the tree, rubbish dump, or second hand shop? It seems like I can grab one thing, then nothing else.

It's not just you. I also thought hoodie strings!! I had a Kougra. But I painted it Faerie as a teen... and got hit by the Invisible RE when playing NQ not long after. So he was Cloud for a loooooooooooong time. Then Camoflage when I got bored. And I eventually morphed him into an Oilpaint Ixi (with the Zombie Tux for special occasions). I now love him waaaaaaay too much to morph him back to a Kougra. So it's new pet time! Although I'm after the giant ball of floof!
