annikarose Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 As a new user, I'm wondering... what are everyone's board habits? If you use it at all, which are your favorites? Do you notice differences in people who use different boards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuki Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I personally never have and never will use the boards. The few times I've ventured over, I noticed that the average age seemed to be 10, judging by the topics and such. The thing that sealed the deal for me was one time when I DID attempt to use the boards, it wouldn't let me post cause I used the horribly offensive word "balls". As in the plural of ball :| the toy.

Trisloth Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I rarely ever use the boards. I don't see the point to them that much. They're mostly extremely random. Sometimes I use the quest boards when I'm really desperate, that's pretty much it though. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilshadowdweller Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I've met some pretty nice people on the Avatar Boards, as well as the Quest boards. However, I also see weird, dramatic posts like; "I miss user so-and-so", and yeah. I wonder how drama even happens on such title regulated boards? :/ TNT doesn't really leave much room for discussion, and they are plenty of "back door" moderators who think they are TNT there.

annikarose Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 The AC chat is always one that turned me off because there were so many users begging to be lent items, but on here it sounds like there are just as many nice people so I thought I'd give it a try. I've also gotten way addicted to the Pound Chat, and I do like having people weight in on my customizations on that boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorse Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I try to stay away from the boards, but I always venture there when I get extreeeeemely bored. I like the FC a lot although it's very slow these days, gives me a few interesting boards a day to post on. I go to the HC mostly to lurk, but am scared to death to post there. There are some very rude and snappy people on there who I wish to never run into, they attack people on every board they post on. ._. Definitely my least favorite board but besides the PC it's the most active board I found to lurk on. I normally only post when I find troll boards or polling boards. My favorite board remains to be the PC. I kinda wish I was still trading pets because I liked lurking and posting there. I also like the NC board, never had any bad experiences there. The boards aren't much anymore. Back when there were tons of users on the boards and TNT wasn't strict they were a lot of fun for me.

Angeló Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I only go there to ask for a MSPP lend I make a board and bump it ... amd I ignore the haters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chibi_chibi_tsukino Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I got to the HC and AC a bit, mainly for entertainment ;) I'm very careful about what I post though as I heard that most feezers (is that a word?) result from inappropriate board posts. So usually I'm just lurking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nataluna Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 i'm on the NC chat alot, but after totalling when i've spent the last few months, going to have to rein it in a bit. the grams were great, got alot of things that otherwise i would be box stingy over. i use the quest board too, always nice people there. don't understand half the abbv. of the PC boards, (VN WVN etc) the only thing i know is UC :P and trading pets doesn't interest me either. AC chat.. really scared of scammers, and much as i would like a MSPP lend i don't want to risk my account. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aalnius Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 i used to go on the avatar boards years ago on my old account but back then it wasn't as bad with filters and the people tended to be better but nowadays i don't go on them at all, i might go on soon though to see if somebody will lend me avatar items like the mspp and fqd, doubt they will as im still young but i can always try.

Nimphal Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I lurk around the PC from time to time, I am not interested in trading pets, but I like looking at them (mostly without custom) so I lurk. I also adopt, zap and re-adopt, so I am looking for pets people are pounding or am advertising what I have UFA. I sometimes check on the Newbie chat, on the odd chance that there might be someone who actually needs help there. I go to the Quest Chat if I really have a lot of time to kill. That's basically it, I haven't really seen any rude people anywhere, but then again, I stay way clear of the AC, so... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xepha Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I only go on the boards if I'm terribly bored or during the Altador Cup. Places I lurk and sometimes post include: charter, help chat, games chat, pound chat and We Are Maraqua (Virtupets/Altador Cup) :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I barely use the Neoboards due to trolls and some uncivilized users, which is why I prefer TDNForums over the Neoboards. Even if I do, it's just to help others on Faerie Quests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetdang Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I've posted on the boards I think once; then I got confused and never went back. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngrace Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 i really love the boards, idk why. there are tons of griefers and trolls but there are also some sweeties as well. ^_^ plus they move so fast! it's kind of fun, but maybe i'm just bizarre like that :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muppetelle Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I stopped posting on the boards, I used to hang on a thread called TOPS (currently possibly residing in virtupets) which stood for The Old People's or something rofl, I can't remember but basically it was a board for us adults playing neo to hang out and chat. Well I can't remember what I posted but basically it was a word that meant different to me, as an English person, to what it meant to an American person moderating the boards, I got my first and only warning and stayed away from the boards forever after. The most annoying, frustrating thing about it, is the original Neopet creators were English :S That's why I was so glad when I found you guys, somewhere where I'm not constantly terrified that I don't know the rules... TDN rocks <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulgaraverde Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I spend a lot of time in the PC, lurking mostly. :P I look around other boards too - NC chat is the other one. Sometimes I just board-hop. It can be quite fun. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tytio Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I try the TC and BDC sometimes. But I am sick of neoboard dramas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trig Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I never really go on the neoboards- every once in a while to the AC or PB. And if I'm desperate during a quest I'll check out the Help ones, mostly I don't have time, and I try and eliminate any possibility of someone wanting my account :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saxen Posted February 21, 2012 Share Posted February 21, 2012 I lurk the PC a fair bit. There are some pretty unsavoury people on there I've noticed unfortunately, but there are also some complete legends ^_^ I've made a couple of neofriends hanging around those parts.

leedom111 Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 I hang out on the BC boards, because I've been entering my pets recently. I also sometimes visit the PC, but it's a little intimidating :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted February 22, 2012 Share Posted February 22, 2012 My guild has a continuous adoption board running on the Pound Chat - that's the only board I will ever be found on, though (which you are free to hang out in if you do manage to catch the board ^_^). Some people are just downright horrible on the NeoBoards and I don't like wandering far from the safety of my guildies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
