The item "Pink Poogle Toy" has the description "This lovely pink poogle moans about banner ads and frozen accounts when you squeeze it!
." This pokes fun at the popular Neopets fansite Pink Poogle Toy, which has a reputation for its users expressing their displeasure about these aspects of the game on its forums.
Thats taken from wikipedia

Pretty much. It seems to be an ongoing joke, some of the TNT Staff members also apparently lurk on these forums. Back before they made Galleries in addition to shops many PPT members also had a Pink Poogle Toy in their shop at a particular unbuyable value *tries to think* Something to do with 1337 if I remember correctly - its been awhile now.

The price of the Pink Poogle Toys put up by members was set at 133,700 so people wouldn't buy them. That was until they changed the shop price guidelines. Now I believe people set them at 1,337 or 13,370 or something of the like or just put them in their galleries.

I have some PPTs in my shop priced at 1,337. Every now and then someone will buy one. I also use PPTs when I trade. If someone offers one when they trade with me I'll give them a bit of a discount.

Yeah, I'm making a gallery of Pink Poogle Toys, I'm trying to get 1,337 of them, hopefully I'll reach my goal by February 2007, just in time for the 6th aniversary of PPT.

I actually like the look of the Poogle toys and so I'm going to get a pink one and put it into my gallery. My gallery, by the way, is of items I like the look of.

This thread reminded me that I don't have one in my shop anymore, so I put one in last night for 1337. It sold.

Uhm, a lil new here, but what's the significance of 1337?
It's something obvious, isn't it? LOL
BTW, just bought a ppt, trying to fit in!

"1337" is script kiddie talk for "LEET", which is supposed to be short for "elite". Script kiddie talk tries to use numbers in place of letters whenever possible because they think it looks cool, like "n o o b" becomes "n 0 0 b".

I think it started when the item description changed.
I used to have a PPT in my shop priced at 1337, but it always got bought by someone who obviously didn't check the shop wizard so in the end I don't put it up anymore. Pity
