what does it mean by "cancelled due to lack of interest"

What was there originally?

i'm pretty sure every march 3rd they just cancel the news due to lack of interest, just one of TNT's joke type deals

Haha, every once and awhile I cancel a day due to lack of interest. I actually did it today (mostly because it's Gnorbu day and I wanted to devote the day to loving my Gnorbu babies ) But I don't think there was anything there to begin with, I think they're just fooling around, declaring a day off, Silly TNT.

It's from a couple of years ago, back when Neopets was relatively new. March 03rd one year, TNT forgot to put out the news on that date; since then, they've made a running joke of it, not putting out news or updating the site at all on that date.

It's one of TNT's big jokes. Back a few years they just cancelled it and didn't do any news or anything. Click the link below for the first time they did it:

I don't remember anything there before it was replaced.

A few years back, they did intend on making the news update at a regular time each day, but that required a day of no news to get the system working on schedule, so they didn't have a March 3 update. The system fell through after a day of it practically, but for laughs, they kept not releasing news on March 3 each year due to "lack of interest"

I see...I've looked at that calendar so many times...I don't know why I didn't notice it before.
