Honestly, I think a lot of the pets don't look very good any more. Which, of course, is why UCs are so special! It's just really unfortunate that they had to redraw everything to make the customizations work, because a lot of pets got seriously downgraded. I mean, we went from this

to this

UCs have so much character, and I loved how painting them changed their positioning. It's unfortunate that now every pet looks the same, just different colours.
But in terms of new colours, I think gray needs a big overhaul. A lot of them have lost the cuteness factor, and instead just look kind of scary. And the red eyes look really awful on some of them, for example the gray hissi. It doesn't look so much sad as... something else.

DoN is down, so you're unable to get advance in the story, or to get the Meerca Henchmen avatar (although you still can battle them). However, Ghost Lupe, Kasuki Lu, Meuka, and the Black Pteri avatars are all still available.

Oh my goodness, I absolutely adore ee cummings! On the wall in my room I have around 100 poems tacked up, and a good lot of them are him.
I guess I'll post one of my poems while I'm at it.
 
Poets do not write because it is easy.
We write because it hurts, because every letter brings sadness and freedom.
We sigh words and build towers,
sprawling cities and flowering beauty at our every touch.
Creation may be the greatest mystery of the world,
But have no doubt of our fabrications.
 
We write to tell.
 
We are tears from too old eyes, staring blankly at a world wiped clean of meaning
We are the scribes, the critics and the virtuosos
The tellers of tales long dead, which have yet to be discovered.
Listen close and hear the echoes of the past crying mercy.
 
We write to share.
 
We are the smell of space in the wind, the creak of time in the water.
We fill the gaps of what was and is,
stuff them with words and sew them with lullabies.
Run your fingers through a poem and feel the fault lines,
See where even we went wrong.
 
We write to close the lies.
 
No, poets do not write because it is easy.
We write because we must.

I would like to see old avatars brought back for those who COULD have been around for them, if that makes sense. I really like that older accounts are privy to more features of the site, as it does reflect our commitment. If we were at least around when the avvie was available, I would love to see a way to unlock it! I hope that makes sense.

I just got it too!! Except I couldn't be bothered to go for the trophy score.

Just wanted to let you know that the avatar isn't available right now. Since Defenders of Neopia is down, the avatar is too.

It's too bad about Habitarium! I'm at level 44 and was really looking forward to hitting level 50 by the end of the week, then being able to chill out and enjoy 100k a day. But I am excited that they're finally making the move. I hope this means lots of fixes in the near future!

I would
 
Same! There's so much stuff that really needs to be fixed, such as the Battledome, and Habitarium. Then I would put a sent folder into Neomail, because it drives me absolutely crazy that there isn't one, as well as make it overall more accessible and user-friendly. Lastly I would just get to work on all of the tihngs, big and small, that the users want. I've heard a million different complaints about Neopets, most of which would be easy to fix. I would just try to get in touch with the users and have them submit what they think could be improved.
And I love fullonparanoid's of having an amalgamated main and side account!

Great ideas!
 
I'm especially down with the need for a SENT folder in Neomail. I have a HORRRRRRID memory and have run into troubles with trades because I cannot remember what or to whom I have sent offers/questions.
 
Now, I have an idea for TDNF as well....increase the daily quota of positive votes! :D
 
I have run out for the day but keep reading posts I want to give props to!
 
:P

I finally got the Lever of Doom avatar! And (okay, this isn't technically something I achieved, but) I got the 99k piece of a treasure map in an RE today! :D

Yay, I'm so happy for you! It's great that you live in such an accepting and supportive house.

355 games for me to win gold (two consecutive wins) :P
 
On another note, I broke 9.5 mil today. 500k away from my goal. :D

Agreed, his sexism is absolutely ridiculous. He basically turned River into the Doctor's plaything, and made her nothing but a romantic interest for the Doctor. She had so much potential to be so cool and such a strong female character, and he ruined it. And now there's another middle-aged lady claiming to be the Doctor's wife... just give it a rest!
The new title sequence is really cool though. Did you know that it was almost entirely based off of one a motion graphics designer made to showcase his talent to potential customers? Basically, this guy's fanart because the new title screen.

It's interesting that we're all selling them and making a fairly good profit on them, because then who's buying them! Hardly anyone on here has said it's with opening.

I love that you guys always post this, otherwise I would always forget to join. Since I already have the away avatar, I guess I'll go for thieves again.

alola, what plushies do you still need? If you give me a list, I'll get as many for you as I can
nightfall8705, I send you a neofriend request, as well as a bunch of coffees and teas
deltacow, I sent you one of each type of scratchcard
fullonparanoid, I voted for you!
 
Thank you everyone for being so kind, and please let me know if there's anything else I can help with! :)

nightfall8705 and erato_ thank you both so much! The gifts are so kind from both of you. As soon as I get home, I'll try to send to everyone else
