February 17, 201511 yr Does anyone think that due to this lag that people are experiencing Jumpstart will shut down Neopets permanently? I'm starting to worry.
February 17, 201511 yr I don't think that they would put work on the issues if they were thinking on shutting down Neopets.
February 17, 201511 yr Me being the anxious person that I am that has crossed my mind lol. But that would be an extremely bad business to decision for them, they wouldn't
February 17, 201511 yr Honestly, I hadn't even thought about it, and now that I have, I seriously doubt it. I'm betting they make a whole lot of money through neopets, and they also payed a lot to nickelodeon to buy neopets. Seeing as they then woudl only would lose a whole lot of money, if they shut it down, I don't think they will. And also what delshnya said, they wouldn't be working on it so much right now to just shut it down soon.
February 17, 201511 yr that is out of the question .. you don't sink a multi million dollar deal over server issues .. theyre fixing them one by one :)
February 17, 201511 yr Basically what Angelo said :) I think the bottom line is a lot of little problems that no one anticipated boiled over with the server migration and now there's just a lot of mess left behind to clean up
February 17, 201511 yr Not yet. But as more and more people flee the site, it might reach the tipping point and become unprofitable. There are many avenues left to try to bring those people back, but it's all about whether they're currently making money from the site (or think they can again with a reasonable investment).

I think bring Key Quest back would help to keep people in Neopets.
March 21, 201511 yr The lag already seems to be much better (on my end at least) so whatever they're doing seems to be working for the time being!I wouldn't think they would shut it down, but I also think that they know that the site's slowness will run some people off, at least temporarily.
