Shane for Wax Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 After signing up for the Neocash card sweepstakes (with the birth year 1989 might I add) I checked my email and found an email that is sent out to parents and guardians saying that I had signed up for it, calling me a child. Seriously, Neopets. I'm not a child. I was never signed up as a child on Neopets. I am almost 22 years old. I signed up when I was above the age of 13. Quit sending such silly emails addressed to my parent/guardian. Quote
Angeló Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 as long as you play neopets , you are a child , even if you're 50 years old looooool that's what my younger brother calls me ... and he's your age .. I'm a couple years older <_< Quote

century_gothic Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 It doesn't seem like that big of a problem, just errase the messages and that's it o-o Quote
jumpingbeans Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 To quote my husband's accusations to Xbox Live support - Database run by squirrels. Do you mean that it's good or bad? Because squirrels are amazing! Quote
jesse_rocket Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Yeah, squirrels are pretty awesome, it's true. :D But sadly, here we are picking on one of their few flaws, their sad inability to catalogue data efficiently. Quote
jumpingbeans Posted December 6, 2010 Posted December 6, 2010 Yeah, squirrels are pretty awesome, it's true. :D But sadly, here we are picking on one of their few flaws, their sad inability to catalogue data efficiently. I know! Though they can always catalog data unless it involves nuts. Then they drool. A lot. Though to the orginal topic, it never happened to me, mainly because I'm under 13. Quote
naalaro Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 Oh i remember those emails...it always made me a teeny little bit self conscious of my 20 year old army enrolled self playing such a game, but hey, i like it, and im not throwing away a few years of build up over petty things :P Quote
Quark Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 (Yay for 1989 births!) Well, hey, you can be your own parent/guardian. Frankly, I am going to have to ground myself. Quote
Shane for Wax Posted December 7, 2010 Author Posted December 7, 2010 I took myself aside and said 'what did you sign up for?' and I told myself 'a sweepstakes' and I said 'well so long as I get at least half' and I said 'okay'. And that was that. Quote
jesse_rocket Posted December 7, 2010 Posted December 7, 2010 I'm glad you didn't get in trouble with yourself. That could have gotten awkward. Quote
Shane for Wax Posted December 8, 2010 Author Posted December 8, 2010 I wouldn't have spoken to myself for days afterward, I fear. Quote
quit Posted December 8, 2010 Posted December 8, 2010 I'm 20 and I got that when I had noscript turned on. It's not that big a deal, it's just an automated message sent by mistake. Quote
Shane for Wax Posted December 8, 2010 Author Posted December 8, 2010 I know. it's just irksome to have it happen. Totally lame, dude. Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted December 9, 2010 Posted December 9, 2010 I didn't even know that I was getting emails. Well, I am in fact a minor (14), so I don't mind it too much. But my father doesn't even know I'm signing up for this, so why TNT is thanking him is beyond me. Quote
Shane for Wax Posted December 9, 2010 Author Posted December 9, 2010 It ended up in my spam box. I check my spam daily just because some of the places I go to get stuck in spam. I would have never known if I just did what some do and automatically dump spam box. Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted December 11, 2010 Posted December 11, 2010 I don't get any mail in my spam box. It all goes to my main box. Quote
xSilverMistx Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 it seems to me that the squirrels cant count data, but maybe they can count nuts,and that people shold give themselfs lectures. i sugest trying to emberress the neopets staff for waisting your time and squeezingot some NP or NC Quote
britt Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Anyone who plays neopets is a child at heart :) And thats more fun that being an adult Quote
RobertoLuongo Posted December 14, 2010 Posted December 14, 2010 Good thing I used a fake birthday when I signed up for Neo :whistle: Quote
Shane for Wax Posted December 14, 2010 Author Posted December 14, 2010 Dude. I used my real 1989 birthday and it still gave me that. it's a glitch lol Quote
CAV of Gang Green Posted December 15, 2010 Posted December 15, 2010 And I used my 1992 birthday, which would place me as 18, and it still have me that. They expect only kids to enter. Quote
