No crap. They gotta impress their sponsors-to-be.

*twitch* What's up with these Classmate.com ads?! I haven't even graduated, I don't need to find my classmates! They're normally sitting next to me every day!
I've got a list of the sponsor games, if other people want to help out by finding ads, you can just use these links instead of searching for them:
http://www.neopets.com/games/avatar.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/toontown2.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/luckycharms4.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/ctc3.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/limitedtoo.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/mcdonalds3.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/sponsors/mcdonal ... vity.phtml
http://www.neopets.com/games/sonofthemask.phtml
I'm fairly sure that's all of them.
Interesting that none of them have bottom ads.

And...which faerie is this?
Actually, that one is legit...she's one of the dark faerie sisters.Check the TCG cards for more about them....they're supposed to be tied into the Darkest Faerie PS2 game if I recall...
Wow, I wish they drew ALL the pets this well....
Alex: Yup...looks like they were prepared allright, hoping the sponsors never stray beyond the areas of the site they are involved with....check it out:
Neopets flash game....(banner at bottom)

Lucky charms game...(NO banner at bottom)

Sounds like somebody planned ahead...*cough*

But they don't have to impress their users.
Let's all give a round of applause for Big Money and capitalism!! hooray!! 
EDIT: Also, Val, if you notice... there's this huge statement down near the bottom...
THIS IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
Guess that takes care of it for them, huh? Ugh.

No, they impressed me with how they can do all this horrid stuff to us, yet there are still millions of people who still play. :-/

Yeah, including us!! Isn't that amazing, that we can sit here and complain, and I know almost every one of us is bouncing from PPT to freaking destructo-match, trying to earn more NP to buy a retired McDonald's Happy Meal to put in our gallery...

Well, in that case... I think that basic pages such as objects.phtml, Pet Central, and the games -- all of which are regularly visited pages, would be the best bet.

Yes, I would quit playing Neopets and take action, but I'm just so darn addicted.

Ah, the joys of addiction. At least it teaches kids early that you'll put up with alot of crap to get your fix, right?

Oh, so true.. so true... geez, it must be a conspiracy! Get us all addicted so that we complain on one thing, and then praise them on another... lessee, what to praise them on now, because I've already complained... hmm.
Oh, yes! Destruct-O-Match II! Love it, absolutely love it! *Goes back to breaking down all the rock things* And what o_0 said a couple of posts down.
Edit 3: I do actually think those things are cool, though the Eyrie could use a major touch-up.

*snags the pregnancy ad*
Good, it says neopets on it...shame I don't have it coupled with the sponsor image, but it will have to do.
For right now I'm going to use it to show the sponsors...
Back in a few...I have one heck of a good scary letter to write to the people signing Doug's checks.

Does anyone know if any of the 'offers' are scams? Because I saw an ad for Jamster, claiming to give 'free' mobile ringtones. I'm pretty certain that there's a catch for that, but I'm not 100% sure.
If we can prove that there are scams there, it'd probably help.

Free iPods, free purses/handbags, Jamster makes you sign up for the "happplan"...
