LizyMarie got a reaction from hanalways in Have Some People Even Read 50 Shades?50 Shades? How about 50 Shades of Lies? Yes? Okay.
My point of view on this book is based on how the author wanted the relationship of the characters to be.
I have come to hate this book and all it's fan's cheering because I am a Librarian. We have at least 70 copies in our system and people rant and rave over it. I did skim through it, i read the reports and summaries. Not interested. Mainly because (as someone from the BDSM community) it's not true to what would happen. It's hard to really go over this on TDN forums but those of us who are part of that actual community are sort of offended. (Not all of us, naturally)
And we have noticed that the author seems to be nothing more than a soccer mom wanting to experience the other side and so she writes about it. But she doesn't actually know. It's pretty much fantasy for soccer moms and vanilla peoples, again not saying this is bad, but not my style nor many others.
I have no interest in where this book got it's start but if it's from fanfiction like you say, then I'm definitely not interested any more than I was to begin with. That's just a load of crap that I won't stand for, and thus I become grim every time I have to hand out that book to patrons at my Library. Enjoy the book, if it's your thing. I'm just quite offended by the whole deal of vanilla folks wooing over the thoughts of the other side.
/end rant.

LizyMarie reacted to Ninth in Brackets are So UnfairThey are unfair. Wins/losses don't seem to matter anymore.
Moltara has 11 wins so far.
Faerieland has 8.
Mystery Island has 2.
And yet...we're behind them.
In last place.
It doesn't make any sense.
I mean I don't expect us to do well, since the brackets are never kind to small teams, but I was hoping to beat last year's 15th place.
I'm mostly in it to try and get All-Star but it's still annoying that your team's efforts and wins don't matter anymore.

LizyMarie reacted to Welcome Back Apathy in Obelisk War PrizesJust got word that there's a glitch hopping around...some people's prizes are disappearing. So far, I've only heard it with plushies, but be careful, everyone...
EDIT: Bought the Fancy Dress Armour; testing it now.
ANOTHER EDIT: Okay, Fancy Dress Armour is officially terrible :P 3 earth defense, 3 physical. Does not appear to do anything else.
ANOTHER LAST EDIT: I TAKE IT BACK...it does appear to do something else! 5 fire.

You can find the rules for both item and pet lending HERE.
Are you wanting to be lent items or join the pet chains?
For items, you are required to have a certain amount of collateral. If you have over 100 posts, you are eligible for reduced collateral. If you don't have the amount required, you just apply, state you don't have full collateral, add your TDN forums account display name, and state how much collateral you can offer. You will hear back from the lender as to whether it's enough or not.
For the pet chains, you must have at 25 posts AND 150 avatars, if you don't meet both of those requirements, you can't join the chains yet. You meet both, so you're fine there. After that requirement is met, whether you're eligible is based on a combo of your posts and avatars. (The more posts you have, the fewer avatars you need to have. The more avatars you have, the fewer posts required.)
We can't accept collateral for the pet chains, so you just need to fit the avatar/post requirements. Once you meet the requirements in the rules, just apply.
All requests are submitted on the site I linked to above. :D

LizyMarie reacted to Nika in I dream of NeopetsIt wasn't a dream, but at the store today, I almost bought an expensive notebook because I thought it was a calendar. I thought to myself I'm glad I didn't do it, "because that would be like buying a plushie pb thinking it's the real thing." Derrrrrp.

LizyMarie reacted to demon_aj in Valentines is over, but there are still archers firing from the clouds!The Battle Faerie at the Faerie Weapon Shop has begun to stock new bows fashioned after the Air and Dark Faeries. Hopefully they will be as powerful as their sister bow, the Bow of the Fire Faerie!
Please contact us if you have any information regarding these weapons.

LizyMarie got a reaction from Lamppost in *Very* Overpriced ShopsThis used to be the case a few years back, so I can see the interest. But with the galleries, why wouldn't they switch over?
I think a lot of the high prices are meant to attract other people. Such as those new to Neopets who see this mall and think "I'll bookmark them because they seem to have everything" And will only buy from that mall's shop and other shops connected to it.
I know it works like that because about 8 years ago that's what I did... because I didn't know any better xD
