Mimii Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Alright since you guys are reading this it most likely means you are a fan of TDN. :) I was kind of curious to see what everyone's favorite parts of TDN were and maybe if you can explain why you prefer TDN over other Neo sites? I loooooooooooove the Avatar Lending Program. Not just for my own needs but for everyone's. I have seen a couple of lending programs that were so lame in comparison to the one here. The pet lending chain is awesome and the collateral is never outrageous for the items. I love the forums and how active they are. Some places are just so dull and no one ever posts. I also love how there are so many people from different countries here, it's really cool. I also lovvvvvve the Customization Database. It's really convenient to be able to see which pet can wear what. The original way I found myself coming here was (of course!) the dailies page. I think a lot of people came here that way. :) I kept reading the news articles and wanting to leave comments but you had to be a forum member.. so one day I just signed up! Anyway that was a lot of blabbing, let's hear your opinions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batman Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I came here because of the dailies. However it has a pretty good game coverage and i always appreciated that. The other thing that i really like here is the Lending program as you have said it is much better then most of the other sites i have looked into. Most of them say they have pets that they don't any more and are just not maintained like this one is. I also like that the forums are really active. If I ever have a question i only have to wait at most 10 minutes before its normally answered. Also i really like the avatar checklist. Everything that you need is right there simple to find and gives good descriptions as to what is needed to obtain them. Yay for TDN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruto Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I don't remember how I came here, but I know it wasn't the dailies page. xD I think I was looking for another forum to stalk since the previous one I was at died. :( Didn't want to be a homeless hobo. xD I don't even use the main site as much as I use the forums. :O That's why I'm still here. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jikuu Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I like TDN because of its dailies list as well as the coverage of the Altador Plot, which I used extensively in order to complete it. I like that TDN is nice enough to have an avatar lending program, and I've found the people on the forums to be nice, which is a breath of fresh air from previous experiences.

Izzy ♥ Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I found TDN back at the start of the Altador Plot... AvLog posted a news post that they wouldn't be covering it, but that some of their affliates were! Can't remember why I clicked the TDN button over the others though xD A few months after that Ian posted that they were hiring staff so I applied :P Back then it was a requirement to be active on the forums to be a Contenter so Ian and Sam told me to sign up here and post some before they would consider putting me on staff lol Of course, they then forgot about me D: I reapplied eighteen months later and was accepted as staff then xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Awesome Pants Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I don't remember how I found TDN, but it was back some years ago, during the time of the old forums. I loved the coverage, and the way the old TDN was set up, what with the commenting. I really liked that. But the new commenting on news helps to keep the forums busy, so it's good that way too.

Creeper unidog Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 OMG THE OLD FORUMS ASDFGHJKL I REMEMBER ALL THE OLD MODS <333 Er..*thinks* I think I wanted a walk through in a plot or idk, then in an instant i signed up for the forums xDD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali Cat Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I was using the dailies page for months before I made my way to the forums. That page is just plain awesome, in my opinion. Still use it ^^ So, like a lot of people, the dailies page is what started my TDN time ;P Honestly, I signed up on the forums to apply for News Poster xDDD Before that I just kind of came on and lurked around as a guest. I was content with not commenting ^_~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Because Jerry is awesome... wait, I mean because Ian is awesome XD. (and so soft when poked. You should try it) Seriously. I like TDN because of the people :) Feature wise... event coverages are my favorite. I pratically never look at the dailies page unless it's to update it :P My favorite department is Customization because it's my little baby. Spent so much time to think of the design and features!

Unstream Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Haha I remember why I first joined. For the ALP. I thought it'd be an easy way to get some avatars. In fact, I hardly ever go/went on the main site. Now, though, I stay for the people here. Like I have to say some of these people here are amazing, and I really like posting here with them. Haha I don't even use this as a Neopets site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm touched that you feel that way about me. That you would want to stay, to talk JUST TO ME. :D Because we all know it's true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephé Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I first found TDN through google. That time, they were the first result to pop up. :O And I came around when I was looking for Altador Cup guides and stuff, I feel like such a n00b looking back. XD Neo Avatars has also been a great help to my rebuilding of Neopets. But now, the dailies are my priority and this forum is awesome, so I'm sticking around. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lia Seeya Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 It started with the dailies. Then I noticed the forum. I was trying to find a new forum haunt since the old one I went to died (a LONG time ago) and I missed talking and having fun with forum peeps. ^_^ So I found TDN, thinking I would leave after a few weeks after spotting something shiny in the distance. But I've stuck around and I believe I'm here for the long haul. :D <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Masaryk Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I first came to TDN looking for a plot guide. I can't remember which plot now, but it was more than a year ago. I started using the dailies page as a supplement to all of the dailies I already had bookmarked. Eventually, I joined the forums, but I didn't actually post anything there until several months later, during the puzzle challenge last summer. I loved the puzzle challenge!!!!! That reminds me...TDN forums are the BEST!!!! Everyone is so friendly and helpful. I actually enjoy coming to this forum, reading the posts, and posting. I really feel welcome here. And I don't really like forums. Both the Avatar Checklist and the ALP are absolutely amazing! I wouldn't have been able to get so many avatars without these features. Thanks, TDN!

Lion Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I love TDN because of the people, like most others in the topic. I too hardly ever visit the main site 1) because all news is on the forums anyways and 2) because I love the forums so much! The departments are also helpful.

ΩCCΩ Posted May 15, 2009 Share Posted May 15, 2009 Here is my story: I was coming back to neopets after several years and as I use google for EVERYTHING I found TDN on the second position after the neopets site. I basically joined the main site and frquently went to the comments side on the news feed. At the end I joined the forums after I saw Stephanie's maraquan cybunny*siggy* which I adored. Now that I look back before 6 months I realize how much of a 1337 I was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
̊ ˉˉ ̊ Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't even use the main site as much as I use the forums. :O That's why I'm still here. :Psame here! I originally found the site back when I still played and was looking for links to "hidden" stuff And this place has such an active forum, If you're gone for more than a day, you have multiple pages of topics that were posted in since you left. Even more when you're gone for more than a month & *almost* everyone is nice & helpful (except for the occasional scammer, I mean really? scamming a mostly free site used largely by kids, what low-lives. And the people here are the reason I keep coming back. & did I use and/& enough? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
