Has TNT recently changed SHH events?
Today while investigating the new petpet plot, my NoScript app on Firefox asked me if I wanted to grant permission to "http://somethinghashappened.com/" Is this a new way of doing SHH events? I went to the site and it denied access. I don't notice much being different from my pets... but goodness only knows. Just wondering if anyone had any insight!

When i was doing the same plot i got a square ad at the bottom of my screen hosted by http://somethinghashappened.com/. It was for one of the neopets site games (possibly imperial exam). I ended up blocking "http://www.somethinghashappened.com/300ads/".
So i don't think it's a way of doing random events, but it may be a new way of hosting advertising

Yeah I saw that today when I adblocked a Wingoball ad. I think it's just another site they own, likely just to host their own banner ads and possibly actual sponsor ads, so kind of like neopets.com/sponsors/....... that I have all blocked too, heh, stuff like Cheetos and Bratz and whatever else they have contracts with. I guess what I mean is I don't think it's another one of those 3rd party ad sites that always seem to have "ad" "media" "click" etc in their site names that just generate a bunch of random ads.
I realize how scatterbrained this post is, I've had a long day lol, but bottom line is I don't think it's something you need to be worried about unless you're like me and adblock anything that appears at the top/bottom/side of the page because you're grouchy and don't like flashy things blinking at you as you try to read
