I just got a terrible thought.

[Moogum]

Agreed. Oh, and advertising your anti-Neopets site isn't the best move either.

Especially with all the things we could insult about it...

[Morningstar]

If neopets got shut down that would be cool.
Neopets needs to be shut down.
It's no longer the community we all deserve.
It's just a money churning ad cruncher.
If you even talk about blocking one dollar your ice.

I really don't think you should insult Neopets on a Neopets fansite.

Not the smartest thing, buddy.

Ditto to that one, anti. If I wasn't a "fan" of Neopets, I sure as heck wouldn't be on one of its fansites.

neobuk's statement is like my saying that AOL should disappear because it wastes so many trial CDs that people just throw out (or use for archery practice like me :-D )

The reason it shouldn't disappear is because it is a service used by people, and works better than Windows does (i'm just assuming that..)
And last of all... AOL is not the devil...

I actually can't remember the last time I used AOL. Ever since I discovered the joys of Internet Explorer, AIM, and Hotmail, that is...

TNT doesn't even care about Sponsers all that much. Most of the updates they do are FOR the people, ocansionally withi sponser thingies, which are sometimes cool. (Hasee bounce is the exact same thing as an old 101 dalmation game they had)

Really???

Because I routinely insult Neopets. And enjoy it too.

He's pointing out a genuine problem that there is a lack of realtionship between users and staff. He is saying that this is because they are favouring excessive marketing and milking their product until it becomes so diluted it is unrecognizable.

I don't see where the problem lies.

[Hakunatata]

I'm the only person here who realizes that the Team is running a site with over 80 million people playing it. o_o; Give them a break. If they don't have something up and running perfectly, find something productive to do until they have it fixed. ._.; You really don't have to sit and whine about it.

Agreed. And really, there are 20 million of us, and 100 of them. That's 1 person for ever 20,000 people. So if everybody wants a close relationship with the staff members, then that's totally impossible and out of the question.

comingtoatvnearyou, I think anti's remark was directed toward the ani-Neopets website that neobuks has been promoting in other threads. Yes, you might complain, as I have done on way more than one occasion, but I don't think that either of us wants Neopets to "die."

You're not alone. I'm a strong pusher of "Give Neopets a Break".

Not even 100.

Naw, not everyone who works at Neopets is on the About Us page. There are lots of people, some of them who are monitors from home, who aren't on that page.

Oh completely in a green mint there (wait, go back, read it... there we go). It needs some kind of slap in the face so that the admin get a hint, but not shut down, packed up into little boxes filled with the S shaped styrofoam, duct taped and sent to Kalamazoo by UPS.

Again, though, only because we can recognize its potential and we want it to turn from a decent site with potential to a great site.

[Chaud]

Flaming Neo? Not the smartest move. Why do you think I'd be on PPT, a 'fansite' of Neo, if I hated neo?

Neo's got real life $$$. They could hire loyers to come and sue you lol j/k j/k.

I don't really think many of us want neo to 'die'.

[neobuks]

They froze me for no reason.
They freeze many for no reason.
How can you support this behavior?
Years and years, hour upon hour, to mark out a beacon.
Poof. Gone. Why? Because they can. Make it stop.
