But sadly unlike this one, there was replies on the one I saw. I think like 10 + replies of stuff like pf'dg;pzdg

Seems to be a lot of pointless topics there too.


I actually think they are great topics! You see, the people who are already fool enough to go into a topic that recomends you smash your head against a hard object, we could probably do without. So hopefully when they bang their heads they'll get a headache or a bruise and remember not to come on Neo anymore. I would have said something more vicious and cruel, but I'm trying to wean myself from that habit.

All the stupid/annoying topics are the reason why I stopped going to the avatar board and started going to the help board instead.
I find it amusing how beggars always try to guilt trip you into either "leaving them alone" or "comforting them" by giving them an expensive item.

I've gotten into the habit of posting this message of begging boards. Another user posted it and she told people to paste it whenever a begger popped up to save time.

I usually tend to get depressed at the general state of humanity when looking at the Neoboards, so I generally avoid them...

But while I would try to help people who actually need it, I'm just too afraid of getting frozen. I know that doing anything at all on the site can put your account at risk, but I don't want to encourage it by posting on the Neoboards. PPT is full of intelligence and rational posts, so I don't bother with any other boards.

Sarah's trying not to be vicious and cruel? The sky is falling! *runs around screaming* :P (Made me laugh, by the way)

I think the Kayla person meant "best friend" and not "boyfriend," but you never know.

Well, there are idiots of all ages. The rotten apples just stand out the most, same as in most groups. That's how stereotypes come about, usually, from what I've seen- they tend to be true, but only for a (usually small) portion of the group that's been stereotyped.

Course you can. :P I felt that post was better than "No. Go away" or "REPORTED New Member!!". It makes sense and it's not nasty.

I've moved all around on the NeoBoards. I started out in Newbie Chat, when it used to be halfway nice. Then move to the HC, then to BD chat. Ever since the General Chat was deleted, every board that used to be nice is filled with junk. Now I just lurk on the Avatar boards, and very rarely post in Premium. I, too, would much rather post here at PPT. :)

The neoquest boards kinda nice-occasionaly people post faerie quests(and sometimes brain tree ones.) Though it IS rather confusing, but the board is slower then most, so its not like it's constantly swamped. It's one of the few mostly on-topic boards.

I think I'll use it too.
At least now, every time I see this message on the neoboards I know its a PPTer that posted it :D

I just posted that on a begging board.
I was going to post "You have a two year old account and you are acting like a two year old, how cleaver!" at first.

Pertaining to the comment that all intelligent individuals in the HC are cynics:

Anybody who's seen the raw, uncensored stupidity on display in any of the Neopets chats is bound to lose faith in humanity. Quickly.

I wonder how many of these people are sincere, and how many are just being an ain in the pass...

I have but I've also seen intelligent individuals report for extremely silly reasons. For example the Newbie who had been there a day asking how to get Neopoints. Suddenly there were lectures, reportings and accusations of being a scammer... It's ridiculous.
