just_shaye Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 I'm writing an article for The Daily Neopian, and was wondering if the avatar rarities listed per avatar were based on Neopets user profiles, or just the people who are on this site who have checked the box claiming they have it. I'd love to cite you in my article if I can get my information straight.Thanks so much for your time =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ali Cat Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 We have no way of getting statistics directly from Neopets, unfortunately :( The stats you see are user-reported, so the sample of the Neopets population represented is limited to those who are also TDN users. Some statistics can be skewed, then, because of the inactive accounts on TDN, particularly for new avatars. For example, Goparokko is listed as "Rarity: 1.05% have this avatar" and it's not a difficult avatar; most active users are going to have it. It's simply new, so the rarity is skewed due to all the older inactive accounts. Mouseykins, Lamppost, Avia loves Chias and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
