I sold a 100 Dubloon Coin for 100NP on trade, I accidentally accepted the stupid offer >_<

Thanks for the encouragement :wub_anim:

 

But I got so lucky today that I don't even mind the dubloon disaster thing!

 

Something Has Happened!

You are now eligible to use 'Neomail Addict' as an avatar on the NeoBoards!

 

I don't use neomail that much, so it was super unexpected :P

I've been playing Dubloon Disaster for sooo freaking long trying to get the avatar. Today, I played until I had 2,430 points, then I quit. I thought that you needed 2,000 points to get the avatar. You need 2,500. I was so close! Ah! This is so frustrating! I was 70 points away! D:

 

I don't know if I'll be able to get that high again >_<

Maybe it was a UC grundo plushie? A while back, TNT redid all of the original artwork in order to make the pets customizable with clothes and whatnot. Already existing painted pet owners had the option to convert their pets to the new artwork. Pets who still have to original artwork are unconverted, or UC. And that's probably why the grundo you saw looks different.

I don't remember why I first joined a few years ago when I was younger. But the reason why I rejoined was mostly because of the games, but also I like having virtual pets which never die or get too seriously sick. It's kinda comforting...

That's so sad :(. I remember a few years back when my cat got sick and we had to put him down, it still makes me cry just thinking about it. Just try and spend as much time as you can with you're doggy and give her lots of love.

For me it's a distraction from everyday life. Neopets is so simple, you play games, get NP, take care of your pets (who can never die), and get free stuff. I also like setting goals and the feeling you get from achieving them. Like when I got 200 avatars :D. And now that I've done a plot, I'd say that would definitely keep me playing! It was awesome :D!

I played Poptropica for a while :P

Now I only play neopets :)

Maybe REs? Now I'm curious too, I hope someone who actually knows answers...

I got 200 the other day! Woot! My #200 was "Let it Snow" and I was lent Icy Snowflake for free! :D

Awesome! Congrats! I got up to 2 mil at some point, then spent it. Then I got back up to 1 mil. The spent that as well. It'll take me forever to get there lol :P

I'm not entirely sure, but I think your pet gets their species-specific ability once they reach a certain level.

 

EDIT:

 

Look, I found them! So some of them you get after a certain level, and some are only available on the pet's day.

Neopets Mobile was, basically, a java app that you paid a monthly fee for on your phone, and it was the only way to access Lutari Island, on which there were a few very nice perks and a couple games. Was pretty cheap too, like $2.99 a month, if I remember correct.

 

Sounds awesome! I hope this time Lutari Island is free though (if it comes back) because my cell is over 7 years old and does nothing besides being a cell phone, so I doubt it could support anything like that :P

 

But even if it weren't free, it would still be cool :)

 

And thanks for the link Auticole! Lutari Island is so pretty o_O *drools*

Desert! They're awesome! :D

I want one now :P

What was neopets mobile? I've heard about it, I just don't know what it is exactly. It sounds like an internet or telephone service, which doesn't make much sense to me o_O

I wish it would! I've never seen it, but it seems so pretty <3

I think I'll gonna switch to FF with NoScript for now...

I got the two items but never got anywhere past that so I have no idea.

But I've wondered that about other games, where I can finish the game but never get anywhere near the highest high scores :/

Thanks! That's awesome! Events are awesome and plots are awesome :D

So there's pretty much always something going on or at least something coming soon :)

I noticed that one of the Forum Sections is called Neopets Plots and Events with the subtopics:

 

The Faeries Ruin

 

Altador Plot

 

Games Master Challenge 2010

 

Altador Cup VI (2011)

 

So I know TFR was a one-time plot. And Altador Plot too, although it's still going on (I think). But I'm confused about the "Games Mater Challenge 2010" and "Altador Cup VI (2011)." Are these events? Is an event something that happens annually? Are these the only two events or are there others? Also, how often do plots tend to come around?

 

(Sorry for posting so many questions >_<)

I don't know about prices, but my favourite is the Mutant Harris <3

Key Quest if you have time. It's my biggest NP maker :D

I have no idea o_O

That sounds super annoying though... I guess all you can do is wait for a response to the ticket?

I got it - 20k NP and a wearable Neopies trophy :) Was in the popup when I voted for today's.

 

Me too :)

And an orn codesone, but that was just the daily prize for voting :P
