Finally Got The Guts...

There's this guy on Neopets who has the cutest pets I've ever seen. He's wicked cool, he collects Neopets merch, he's a premium user, and he loves his pets. So I decedid to Neomail him.

 

And I am in NO WAY looking for him to be a dating partner, that is against Neopets rules.

I don't really get that rule. They can't stop you if you meet someone on Neo you like. What do they do exactly, ban you from talking that person if they think you're 'dating' or whatever??

I have no clue, I just remeber reading something along the lines of "Neopets is not a dating site...." or something like that.

Tank Girl- They ban you if they see you are trying to get romantically involved with another user on the site.

starlite- congrats on gaining the courage to neomail him! :-)

 

Can you give an example of what trying to get romatically involved would look like?

It sounds like there's plenty of grey areas with this rule.

 

Exactly how do TNT define 'romantic involvement'? What if you already know the person IRL, or they are your partner?

 

I have been contacted 'romantically' via Neopets, and that person wasn't banned.

I have an internet crush on this guy :*

 

However I won't say anything about it so I don't get in trouble. I'd like to keep my accounts and pets for...forever.

I mean, how often do you find a man with 20 Neopets that he takes care of and loves(I'm talking about love, not just attachment). I have 20 Neopets and they're like my kids since I can't have kids IRL.

What i mean is if you are trying to pick up dates with other users on neopets you are probably going to be banned or silenced. Here... the neopets rules explain it more clearly than me.

http://www.neopets.com/chatrules.phtml

Rule #2

"Neopets is not a dating agency: Posting any offensive or sexual messages, including while role-playing as your pets. This also includes sexual role-play, advertising dating/mating/marriage websites, dating guilds, or chat boards for you or your Neopet. Neopets is not the place to try to find a boyfriend/girlfriend for yourself, your friend or your Neopet. We do not condone the posting of message boards that invite other users for *naughty" or *hot* chats or other such inappropriate offsite activity, even by implication."

 

Making friends on neopets it's fine and playing neopets with your partner is fine too. But stuff like that ^ should be kept outside neopets. Besides, I kind of doubt people who know each other in real life would use neopets to talk to each other. That's why we have MSN messenger and AIM.

I had to agree with this. My husband and I both play Neopets. We never contact each other on Neopets. If I need him to do something on Neopets (like accept items. He has a tendency to not notice the icon at the top and they get returned to me, sometimes multiple times) I send him a text message or call him. I think the only times we've ever sent NMs was when he needed me to check out an item for Faerie Quest.

In this same vein, neo should make an option for those over a certain age to display their email addresses on their profile. You would be able to turn off the feature if you did not want to be contacted off-site. A lot of guilds and stuff are for non-neo content and neo rules prevent you from linking off site, so it really limits the sharing of different things, even completely innocent things like background making sites or sites like TDN. It would be a nice way to get in touch with people in a way that wasn't so heavily censored.
