Matt Posted April 7, 2008 Author Posted April 7, 2008 Hello, Say someone have a lot of collateral (because he/she spared him/her NP during a very long time), and would like to complete him/her avatar collection. What's the "acceptable time" between two requests to borrow from the ALP. Is it once a day? Once a week? Three per week? It's just a general "One at a time" policy. You can send a request for another as soon as we receive the previous item from you. ;) Quote

Kacheek Nick Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 Hey. I've been thinking about trying the Avatar Lending Program, but I can't neomail (Parental Controls.) Is there another way to get in touch? I'll be able to neomail in about 9 days, but I can't wait. Quote
Matt Posted April 19, 2008 Author Posted April 19, 2008 That's a very good question. And, for the moment, I'm afraid you're going to have to wait. :( At the moment we organise everything using the order we get the Neomails in. If they're everywhere, we can't order anything. If we can't order anything, all our items would get lost. :( Is there any other restrictions to do with auctions, trading and alike on younger accounts? Quote
Kacheek Nick Posted April 19, 2008 Posted April 19, 2008 No. You are able to trade, auction, and buy things from Shops. The only things you can't do is play Gambling Games, use the Neoboards, or send and receive Neomail. Quote
Matt Posted April 20, 2008 Author Posted April 20, 2008 Well I suppose it's for people's safety that you can't Neomail. We'll look into offering other ways in the future. :) Quote
crxsnochic Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Will the rules be updated for the pet lending now that transfers will be available? And who do we request the pets from, jerrypteri also? Sorry, if the last question was answered in the guide/procedures. I read them but the guide didn't say and the procedures focused on the item lending (I'm sure thats cause the pound has been down for so long!). Just wondering because I would love to try and set up an ALP pet transfer for sometime this month! Quote
Matt Posted April 28, 2008 Author Posted April 28, 2008 We'll let everyone know soon in an ALP news post. Keep tight. It'll be around soon. :) Quote
♥Kyra♥ Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 I'll make a note to fave this thread. :laughingsmiley: Quote
crxsnochic Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 We'll let everyone know soon in an ALP news post. Keep tight. It'll be around soon. :) Thank you so much for the update! I'm very excited about getting some of these pet avs now that the pound will be open soon. Though I guess I'm not the only excited one. I was offline today, but I hear that neopets (and this forum) were going a little nuts with all the anticipation. I think I'll plan on being offline again tomorrow for the craziness that will be sure to ensue now that the opening has been delayed. Quote
Ithil Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I re-read the lending rules and I wonder if you use sometimes the auctions (you never refer them). Because I have a lot of NP in pure, but not many ETS. And since the maximum amount of pure in the trading post is 800k, it's difficult to reach the collateral for some very expensive items. Or do you use multiple trades with junk items to transfer all the NP? I've seen some lenders using this manner. Quote
Matt Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 A little of both, nowadays, actually. Previously, when the most expensive item we had was 1.6 Million NP at the time, we just set up a couple of trades and everything was fine. What, with inflation and the Bony Grarrl Club being amongst what we lend, we tend towards doing private auctions now if you have pure NP for that item. But we'll explain what we'll do in the Neomail reply back. :) Quote
emi Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 If I was looking to donate to the cause (hypothetically of course) where is the donation shop? can't find it....argh. :grrr: Quote
Strategos Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=jerrypteri would be the donation shop, if it were to exist. Quote
m3l3ana Posted June 10, 2008 Posted June 10, 2008 I am slighty confused as to what you mean by that Strategos. That link you posted is to the donation shop and it does exist!! Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Its because, technically, we're not allowed to ask for donations so the donation shop is a myth similar to Jelly World ;) Quote
Patch Posted June 12, 2008 Posted June 12, 2008 to get on a pet lending chain i just have to neomail jerry right? p.s i read the rule but they confused me o_O Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Yes, just neomail JerryPteri :) Make sure you include your forums display name though! Also, don't forget to say which pet you are looking to borrow, its amazing how many mails we get simply saying "I want to join the pet lending chain" - telling us which pet helps ;) Quote
genmakerbr Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 Ok, sorry if I´m asking this on the wrong place but... What are the items we are aiming for now? Besides de BG, anything else? Maybe in the pet transfer? I would like to help in someway... Maybe with itens, maybe with pets... I don´t really have much time for the forum stuff, and am still trying to gather the collateral... But I really would like to improve my rep around here. And, of course, help everyone else. Have acess to a lab ray, just in case we need that stuff... But don´t get a species change in quite some time... *sigh* Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted August 5, 2008 Posted August 5, 2008 We are currently going for the Bony Grarrl Club with the donations - mostly because, aside from that, we only need the two hugely expensive avie items (MSPP and SuAP). For pet lending, we have everything now except a Draik and a Krawk... so again, two very expensive pets. Its a long road, but hopefully we'll get there someday! Quote

But aren´t getting a Draik or a Krawk cheaper than a BGC? I´ve been searching around the site and it seems so... Quote
Ashley Rose Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 Yes they are cheaper than the BGC. However we did a poll a little while back and the results were largely in favor of a BGC. So we are working towards that goal first. The BGC is quickly raising in price as well so we should get that one as soon as we can to avoid paying more in the future. Quote
Whacker Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 BGC is heading down the same path as MSPP; it's what happens to retired avatar items. Nobody want's another item on our 'too expensive to buy' list. ;) Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted August 8, 2008 Posted August 8, 2008 BGC isn't retired actually - its just r99 so not many restock lol Quote
