inkt Posted August 18, 2011 Share Posted August 18, 2011 So maybe I'm completely out of the loop here and never check the spotlights anyway, but when did the site spotlight become inactive? :( I was finally thinking about actually entering that.

Piticent Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 IDK...I never really look anyway. Did you check when a new winner is chosen? B/C Random Contest is like every month. I keep forgetting about it :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep forgetting about it :P Well, according to the Site Spotlight Page, it says "This Spotlight is no longer active, but please enjoy all of the old submissions!" It doesn't have a date of the last submission either. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piticent Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Oh :( I dont remember it ever going inactive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkt Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 Me neither. :/ I'm kind of shocked over it. I thought it was a pretty good spotlight and actually required some effort... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethelune Posted August 21, 2011 Share Posted August 21, 2011 I agree! I spent months working on a page for my Rowanan... not with winning the Site Spotlight as a specific goal, granted, but I did like to entertain the idea. :( I can't help but be a bit curious why TNT would deactivate the Site Spotlight, as it seems like a perfectly legitimate competition relevant to the site.

inkt Posted August 21, 2011 Author Share Posted August 21, 2011 I wonder if they ever said why. There was a long period of time where I was on a bit of a hiatus and didn't check the news or anything but I don't really want to go through a million archives just to not find anything.

fulgaraverde Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 According to here, they announced that the spotlight would be stopping in July of last year, and actually stopped it last August. So it's been gone for just over a year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted August 22, 2011 Share Posted August 22, 2011 http://www.neopets.com/nf.phtml?nf_date=2010-08-09 ^that was the last Site Spotlight. It was closed because they were not getting enough entries week after week :(. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inkt Posted August 22, 2011 Author Share Posted August 22, 2011 Thank you guys so much for the information. As much as it is understandable why they stopped having it, I wish they would bring it back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
