KVeeee Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I got a pop-up about being selected for a beta program called Neobuddy. It then had a quiz to match my personality with a buddy (I got a pirate techo) that would help me with hints and funny messages as I run around neopets. Anyone else get this? This smells strongly of april fool's, but I'm not entirely sure. It'd be fun to have around. Here's a link, I assume it works for everyone: neobuddy Quote
m3l3ana Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Yeah I got it to and I got the pirate aswell... I am not sure if it would work for everybody, as it says The beta test is only open to select users and will only be open for a limited time.... It does sort of seem strange for it to come out today, but mine seems to be popping up with hints every now and again. Quote
Izzy ♥ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Its an April Fools joke ;D Everyone gets the popup to say they're a beta tester, and everyone seems to be getting Bug Eyes McGee as their top match :P Quote
m3l3ana Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Hehe... glad we got that one sorted... Not a bad idea though, could be helpful for newer users. Quote
Maximum Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 yeah. its an April Fools joke. i knew it the first time i looked at it :laughingsmiley: Quote
_Zafia_ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Lol i just closed the browser because i didnt see it before and im always closing the browser when i see something not normal Quote
m3l3ana Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Don't worry you didn't miss out on much... he basically gives you a helpful hint (nothing you don't already know) and then starts getting angry at you, cause you aren't being nice to him. Quote
DOOM Bringer Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 It's got April Fools written all over it. I don't really care as I don't wander around Neo very much, so chances are I'll hardly see old Bug-Eye much today. Some people did get Sir Fufon Lui though, somebody screenied it on this petpage Quote
_Zafia_ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I should never have pressed that button. He absolutely ruins everything. *""!¤%#%&¤ he has ruined quite a good deal of RS already. Popping out of anything right over haggle screen lol. Quote
antiaircraft Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Yeah, the pop-ups can be really annoying. Luckily I'm not RSing or anything like that. :P Quote
_Zafia_ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 It already cost me like 200-250k :( Oh well at least im not refresh banned anymore lol Quote
antiaircraft Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I guess you should just stop RSing until after April Fools day... Quote
_Zafia_ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Nah i cant, i must continue *aaarrrggg* lol. Even though i missed the items i've still made about 150k. Quote
DOOM Bringer Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I read on the Neoboards somewhere that you can move the screen he pops up in to the bottom of the page and then it will be out of your way and he wont come back or something like that. I might test it myself. I'm gonna go Restocking! (hooray :D) Quote
ho_yt Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I also got the Bug Eye McGee as my match, don't really like him though, is this a april fool's joke I wonder... Quote
_Zafia_ Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 What? nooooooooo, u cant :P, its all mine, mine alone muhahaha :P lol Ahh cool im gonna wipe neobuddy's face with all my great items then lol Quote
DOOM Bringer Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I also got the Bug Eye McGee as my match, don't really like him though, is this a april fool's joke I wonder... It's definitely the April Fools joke, but its not really that funny. TNT need to go for something HUGE and mean. I was actually hoping for a pound prank, that would really fire up the Help Boards :P Now I'm off to feebly try and restock! Quote
antiaircraft Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 Huge, mean pranks... now there's something to fire up the imagination. :evil: Quote
Jejune Posted April 1, 2008 Posted April 1, 2008 I didn't get that popup for some reason, so thanks for the link! Got linked to Bug Eye of course, but no pops ups from him so far :x Aww. I was hoping that I'd get Sloth, imagine getting bugged by him complaining that you won't talk to him, then moping away cause you don't care. XP Quote
