It is time someone starts a new site to compete with them. I know there are some alternatives out there but none of them even came close to Neopets yet in terms of graphics. Cute and high quality pets graphic is a must, the rest can be slowly work out in order to attract players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallycooldog Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I wish it was real so they would take down all the stupid Ads! :grrr: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardblackrock Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I wish it was real so they would take down all the stupid Ads! :grrr: Advertisements are how Neopets make money in addition to neocash and merchandise sales. Without advertisements, there would be no updates. We wouldn't want that happening now, would we? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane for Wax Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 You mean there are still ads on Neopets? *blinks a little then glances up at the red stop sign with ABP in it* oooh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reallycooldog Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 yeah I guess you are right hardblackrock , but still i wish there were not so many ! :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hardblackrock Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 yeah I guess you are right hardblackrock , but still i wish there were not so many ! :( Yes, the advertisements do get on my nerves too, especially when they refresh and it lags my entire browser. Happens all the time when I'm playing a game, and causes me to lose quite a few times. Eventually I just got an ad-blocker, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler. Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 That pretty much sums up my post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whethalar Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Hmm... the ads never affected me. There are ads everywhere on the internet, I've gotten used to it, I never notice them. I never get pop-up ads anymore anyway after I got google chrome. Chrome works really fast, so maybe if you have laggy internet explorers, you can try getting chrome.

Chrome works really fast, so maybe if you have laggy internet explorers, you can try getting chrome. Google Chrome is NOT in its prime yet. It's also slower than mozilla firefox, which is also many times more customizable to your needs. No doubt since it's a Google product, it will improve over the next few years. Their products tend to do that. Chrome may be "faster" because you don't know how to configure settings for you browser, but yes, either way, Internet Explorer is a heavily discouraged browser. It pretty much copied firefox after it Microsoft realized their browser was horrible despite its large amount of users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cassie Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I do miss the old days where Neopets was such a kid friendly place, but we are all naive in thinking that they are going to go back to how things used to be without ads and commercialization. That is just how everything is now. So much so that it is part of our civilization. people are always trying to figure out how to make the most money off of something. I wish TNT hadn't sold out, but I don't see them buying it back from Viacom anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each to his own I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vixensykerd Posted December 3, 2009 Share Posted December 3, 2009 I think its ironic that neopets has basically turned into advert attack - viacom being Dr Sloth :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
