They need to bring back the whole "Sign up for this sponser and get a Fountain Pass" offer. I miss that! I miss it so much haha! :cry:

Ah, that was the best. I got my old Faerie Kyrii that way. *Memories!*
But I'm sure it would be harshly abused now since there are many more members. New accounts would be created, more sponsors signed up for, more Darigan and Faerie pets floating around. Then again...*ahem* those sponsors would give TNT more money. ;)

I wonder if they're gonna give out a random colour to a newbie pack. If that happens, then the "undo a wrong choice of colour" theory might not work...otherwise, they'd have to give out all four colours.

Good for you. *Resists the urge to thwap* :P Joking, joking... but I used my Newbie Pack up when I was a Newbie. :P Yay?

Um, they could be a new color altogether... notice how Newbie Paint Bruses are sparkly and shinily and stuff? Maybe they'll make the pets like that...?

Probably not. o.o

They can limit it to one per computer. I know even back then they did that (I would try to sign up on more than 2 accounts and it just wouldn't let me).

Hey Val, I think sometimes that we need to team up! WE ARE BOTH INSANE! TEAM UP INSANITY AND YOU GET A PAR-TEY!

Sorry. :P
Everytime someone wants to have a party, I want to be the DJ.
I really like the sparkliness of the newbie paint brushes.

Anytime. :hug:

And I agree with you on the sparkliness...

Hey...I wonder...

You think that maybe now instead of getting the standard color choices like we all did a newbie will have to choose some newbie paint brush color choice, which will in turn change their pets into a "sparkly" version of the standard color until it ages a while (sparkly as to denote "fresh and young" as to mark their pet and their account as new?) Sorta like a living, newbie shield?

Um, do these new paint brushes work in the same way as the old ones? And are they only availabe in the basic four colours? o_O

4 basic colors only. I think the whole thing is a waste of time, personally. :roll:

Well, in all honesty now we just have to wait to see when they'll come out and what they're purpose is. (If any.) I think it might just be for people to try out the whole "paint brush idea." When I was a newbie I wanted to know so much what a paintbrush and would do and what it would be like to paint my pets. (Heh, I guess I was expecting flashing lights to go off and fireworks to light.)

So no need to gamble with my chances of getting frozen by making a new account? Ok, thank you. :)

Tue Mar 15, 2005 3:28 am

I thought I never got a newbie pack, but apparently I did because I don't have that option. In fact, I am pretty sure I never got one because when one of my friends signed up I was mad because they got one and I didn't. Oh well, it's just a paint brush that I probably wouldn't ever use.
