That email is too funny! :)

The things some people do, eh? :) I've had some real kickers in the past.

This one pair of sisters mailed me saying they liked my shop and the setup was cute. I thanked them and asked them to put up a jelly in trades so I could gift them. I thought that was a simple enough request, but I guess not. O.o The girls read that and thought I wanted jellies, so then they started to send me all kinds of jellies. O.o I kept trying to explain to them that I wanted to gift them, but they were just *so* excited to help out. Finally, I got one of the girls to put up a jelly in trades (like days and many jellies later). I offered 10k np on it and asked her to tell her sister to put one up, too. I got a neomail the next day saying that I was paying too much for jellies and to be careful. Then they sent more jellies. I didn't know what to do (since this had been going on for almost two weeks at this point), so I just stopped responding. After a couple days, the jellies stopped coming. I thought it was over, until the next week I got a neomail from one of them saying she has started collecting jellies, too. :) lol

Gotta love people, eh? :P

Oh yah, maybe I should do that. :D


No, I did not do that, I am too lazy to :lol: .
Anyway, I left his trade there to rot and see if I get anymore hilarious mails from him again.

haha... neopians say the darnest things!

Heh. :) The best tactic would be to block and ignore.

But me? Well, if it was me I'd probably reply...I'm like a moth to a flame with such things. :P

Something along the lines of:

Plz! Give me 150k! I don't wnt to die either but if I don get 150k i will haf to jump out of a buildng!1!! I am seriusly on mi knees begging n pleeding dat you will sell off all that crap you offered me and raise enouf neopointz to offer me 150k soon!1!!!111

lol, Val! That is hilarious. :)

A very good tactic, too. Yeah, I'd go with what Val said. :)

I got one from a 3-day player who said that my Poogle Merchant Plushie in my shop is underpriced and that it was worth 2 million. I kindly told him that it was not, blocked him, and set my plushie to 133,700. :3

Knowing the way Neo works, you'd probably get frozen for using the word "crap" while the beggar got off without so much as a slap on the wrist.

Poeple are so desperate, I would tell that guy he could chop his own head off for all that I care, but that's just me. :P

No but really, I wouldn't worry about it, just block the guy or come back with something witty.

He withdraw his offer. :D I receive his mail today.

He must be a really, really lonely person who would kill himself for the sake of a pixel image. o_0

If he's dead how did he type? I mean, unless he had a white mage next to him who used LIFE of LIF2, thats not possible! :o

It can be written a lot like AAAAARRRRRGGGGHHHH. Sorry to all you Americans who don't get it.

Thu Dec 16, 2004 5:35 am

The guy has been playing for 2-1/2 years now. You would think he would've "killed" himself long before now, eh? :P

Ah, it takes all kinds to make this world go round. Shame we have to meet up with every kind.
