I usually do. You don't have to make something big and fancy. Just come up with one reply, and copy and paste it into all of the offers.

Something like:

"Hello! Thank-you for your offer! However, I have already accepted another offer. Thank-you again!"

It's short, sweet and to the point and doesn't leave anyone hanging.

 Finally got the Aisha Scalaway! #310

http://www.neopets.com/pirates/buriedtreasure/buriedtreasure.phtml?353,206  is the one I won with, if anyone wanted to try their luck.

It was loads of fun! They played Survivor too, do you know the game I mean? I was only brave enough to sign up a couple of times and I got "killed" really quickly both times, and I can't remember a single thing about how it was played now! But I know it was a lot of fun!

I bet it's something we could run games of on here if people know how to play it and were willing to run it.

 

Oh gosh, I loved Avatar suvivor! And avatar simon, too!

I used to be really active on the avatar chat years back, and I played those games all the time!

It is tricky getting someone to run it. It can get a bit messy.

Guilds have been dead long before Neopets took a dive and I think the culprit is social media. You can meet on places like TDN, tumblr or reddit and speak more freely with a larger group of players. Additionally guilds are quite restricting in what they can do whereas if you post on social media, you can conduct giveaways or activities for your peers without risk of anyone getting in trouble via the guild.

 

 

That's very true. Other social media sites don't have the restrictions that Neopets has, which means that players can interact more freely with each other.

Neopets really needs to get with the itmes!

@jellysundae That guild sounds like a lot of fun! I'm happy you were able to find a place that suits all of you!

You are right, Neopets needs give Guilds a face lift, but I don't think they would be willing to even try ):

@life_eclectic Neopets is still nice, but it is slowly dying. But that doesn't mean we can't enjoy it!

I was late to the guild party.

I was asked to join my current guild years back, when they (and the HC) were still fairly active. I wish I had!

Years ago, plenty of people used guilds. They were like a hub of communication for plenty of people. Someone was always advertising for one or wanting to be in one. There were guilds for every subject under the sun!

But now that Neopets is dying, it seems that guilds are slowly slipping away with it.

Don't get me wrong, I love the guild I'm in, it just seems... different.

What do you guys think?

Good for you!!!

There seems to be this fit path for how education should go, and if you stray from the path then it means your bad and should feel bad.

But no!!! Education is about taking the time YOU need to learn the stuff, not the time other people think you need.

But it can be hard admitting that what works for other people doesn't work for you. So I'm always really happy for people who have realized that something isn't going right with the way things currently are, and then take steps to make it better.

One little happy thing from me - I bought a little key chain. It says 'Accio keys'. (It's 10 usd on etsy, by seller GeekTags.) I thought I lost it about a month ago. I went to walk a neighbors dogs, and there it was in front of their house! It was scratched up, but I was so happy to see it! What a nice coincidence, that I was in the right place at the right time to find it!!

It's always fun going through the music you were just starting to listen to.

Well, here's what I've been listening to:

1. Closer (Walk Off the Earth)

2. Victorious (NateWantsToBattle)

3. Bad Things (machine Gun Kelly & Camila Cabello)

4. Castle On the Hill (Ed Sheeran)

It feels so weird listening to music that was made in 2017 or 2016!

Usually I'm listening to music that is older!

Buy low, sell high! (Unless it's in bulk.)

I usually go for the lowest price. But If I'm buying items in bulk, I'll usually go for one that's a bit higher.

Like for the recent CC, I was looking for items in bulk. Let's just throw out some numbers - there were a lot of singular items for 290, but there were 40 in one shop for 305. It's not something I would have normally bought, but I needed a lot of the items, so I was willing to spend a bit more so I didn't have to do as much clicking.

When it come to selling, I usually price it 5 NP below the second amount. (I use SSW, so I figure I'm going to be the first on the one for my name anyways. They can refresh if they want to. But if they don't, it's an extra 5 NP!) If the prices between the first and second are really different (like 4,643 and 8,567) I would price mine somewhere in the middle, like around 6,000-6,500.

Whoa how have you survived until 2016 without a smartphone? :0

 

That is impressive, I commend you. xD

 

What phone did you get? c:

Lol, I've had ipods, ipads, laptops, ds and basically every other type of technology to make up for it! xD

I got the cheapest Samsung available! Lol, I can play games, text, call, and use the internet so it's fine for me.

Not much! 

School has started up, so I'm a bit busy with that.

got a smart phone (finally!) I've been using flip phones for just about forever....but it might be because I have a habit of loosing them :/

Let's hope this one sticks around!

It's been such a while since I've posted, and I'm listening to quite a bit of new (well, not new, but newly/recently/downloaded since last post) music!

1. Legally Blond the Musical (it's so catchy and cute!)

2. Bo Burnham (He's funny, but half the time I'm wondering if he's okay)

3. New World Coming (Benjamin Wallfisch & Disa) I(I heard it for House of peculiar children or whatever it's called, and I fell in love with it!)

4. Relient K (I was obsessed with their music in middle school!)

5. Stronger Than You (Caleb Hyles) It's just a pretty song?

There's so much more, but these are some of the top 5s.

Happy Canada day!

If you live near the border of Indiana/Illinois, please make sure your fireworks are big enough so I can see them from my house.

Thanks.

My font and avatar decided to take a runner on the preferences.
(But I could still see my avatar on my lookup and still posted with the set avatar/font set on the Neoboards, which was weird.)

So I had to look through the page source and piece together the coding.

For some reason I always have a hard time with font codes.

I'd like to say I'm pretty good at other coding, but I'm simply awful when it comes to fonts!

I also remembered to copy and paste it on my computer, so I won't have to go digging for it again.

(This is the second time it's happened!)

I go through periods of hating the name 'Dariganto'.
But she was my first real pet on this account (one that I picked out to have on this account, and didn't transfer over) and I've spent a small fortune on painting, morphing and training.

So no way am I trading!

It's not because it's complicated, it's because the market for bras for women who have had mastectomies is much, much smaller than the market for regular bras. They would have to spend extra money on it, without having a big return. If there's no profit, they're not going to do it.

 

(Side note: Victoria's Secret, in my opinion, does not promote confidence.)

This is very true.

If there is more money somewhere else, the company is going to go down that path, rather than the path that would make less money. (But people would love to have open to them.)

Because when you get down to it, Victoria's Secret is a company. The main point of a company is to make money.

I only go to Victoria's Secret when I get the free underwear coupon.

Because, hey.

Free underwear. 

I'm walking so many dogs.

Well, it's like 5.
But it's still a lot.

Especially when it's so hot ):

At least the dogs are cute  :laughingsmiley:

I have so much new music.

I have 3 free months of apple music, which means free music for me!

(And then 5 USD a month because I go to college/university!)

Favorite songs:

1. True Colors (Zed & Kesha)

2. Secrets (Mary Lambert)

3. Honey I'm Good (Andy Grammer)

4. Love Yourself (Justin Bieber)

5. Emperor's New Clothes (Panic! At the Disco)

I think there should be a gold ban for trophies like there is for the beauty contest.

If you get gold one month, you can't get it next month.

So it wouldn't lower too drastically, and once the month is passed, you become eligible to win the trophy again.

The daily takes maybe 10 seconds at the most to spin, so it's not like it's a huge hassle to spin it!

If you don't like it, it is easily blocked.

And for those saying it will break the economy, we have to remember that things like habi and kq used to exist.

With habi, you could do the bare minimum, click around a few times and earn up to 50-100k (I don't remember how much exactly) EACH DAY. 

Then there was KQ, where you had the chance to earn some pretty high end items.

Then there is Trudy, which in comparison to what could have been earned from KQ and Habi, isn't all that much.

Fight Song - Rachel Platten

Exes and ohs (They all sound the same, even if they're different people singing them!)

I also recently bought Regina Spektors Album 'Begin to Hope'. I was in love with it early high school late middle school. I was listening to the lyrics, and started to wonder what the heck is up with her. They're just weird. Especially 'on the radio' and 'musicbox'.

Better Place - rachel platten

Maengo was zapped.

1. +2 HP points

2. +2 2 levels

3. Changes color to from green yellow (I'm not sure how it looks with the current customization...) I mean, it's a color change...

The petpet was turned into this thing:

A Dung Snuffly.

Whipped icing.

It's so fluffy and yummy!

Laptop or desktop computer?

Banned because there can never be enough :3

Yes. I get awkward around most movies, and can't watch an entire one.

TPBM likes Greek yogurt.
