The cobrall is really wierd.

It should be spelled cobrall, but instead its spelled kobrall, and since it had no name, i named it arrow, and then sloth deemed me worthy of using his imige on the neoboards!

Weird huh? does anyone know whats going on? o_O

now that is weird. Maybe neo has decided to change the name of cobralls lately, and only are changing the ones that are not attached to anything (happened to the mongmong which is now I believe a flishy... I will without a doubt not remove my mongmong because I absolutely hate the new name!)

The owner attached it in a different language. German maybe? O_o

Maybe they changed kobrall to cobrall, maybe my cobrall has never been deattached.....still, it freaks me out

That's not it. :/ I removed one of my cobrall from my SDB(I have like 80) and changed around the language. It always stayed Cobrall except for the 4 asian languages.

It's wierd.

could you equip the cobrall and see if that one is changed?

That's pretty cool actually. I wouldn't remove it...it's more special that way. But it is a wonder how it got that way in the first place...hmm...?

i know...........????

It was probably attached in German.

Thats pretty cool actually, I like it! You should defintely not detach it, saying that, if you did, it might stay a Kobrall and be worth millions

I wouldn't risk it though!

You could always advertise to people that you have an extremely rare petpet because of the way it's spelled and get people to pay millions of NP for it. Fwee...

Or you could do the right thing, which would be to mail a bug report to TNT.

i would do the first thing! if neopets warns you, you just say that you didn't know it's a bad spelled cobrall

The only thing I can think is that yes, whoever attached and named the cobrall did it in another language (guessing one of the Asian from the testing Blue Wolf did). If you unequip, it will probably go back to the normal spelling. So, it's spiffy that you have one spelled different, but it doesn't make it worth anything more unfortunately.

I don't think so about the language because when I have something that is spelled in german when I am playing (This is not virtualmetal btw, I am using virtualmetal's account because I am cheeky and rude

) it goes back to english if I change it to english spelling site.
Could be a glitch or something?

I thought the aisian languages are not the same text so they can't be spelling it "Kobrall" or can they?

I actually attached an Abominable (sp?) Snowball to my pet while using the site in Dutch and even when I reset the site back so its in English the petpet still comes up as:

(name) the Abscheulicher Schneemann (age)

Its now an ongoing joke between my brother and I, we both have a very odd sense of humour at times.

Anyways, I'd assume the "Kobrall" has something to do with it being attached in another language, like a number of the others have suggested
