Pink Poogle Toy Forum

Ok, let me give it a shot.

One word: Glitches.
Being addicted to the game and having my family physically force me off of the computer and yet still be back on in five minutes.
Even with all the users, TFT (oh, excuse me, TNT) *somehow* keeps it running pretty well.
The fact that I can play without the worry of my privacy being attacked, such as spam, etc.
Without Neo, I probably would not be as 'technologically advanced' as I am now.
No popups!!!

I'll probably think of more later.

The new yurbles are cute!
I hate the new koi
Downtime getting worse..
Glitches getting worse..
Ultimate bullseye rules!
Lab map prices going way too high


hmm that's all I can think of right now.

Every bleeping time I go to do something important on Neopets, I get this message: "Duuurrrrr, um, neopetss iz, dddurrrr, down fer mayntenins, duhhhhh." Look, seriously, is it really necessary to take down the entire site just to fix a few problems? Why not just take down the part of site that you're fixing? DUH!

And it just so happens that I happily bought some TCG packs today and was joyfully about to enter the codes before I went to bed. But guess what? Duuurrrr, down fer mayntenins! And so I have to wait for tomorrow.

On a side note, what's the symbol when you're selecting your prizes that can get you the Freeze Ray thingy? Is it the Paint Brush symbol? Thanks.

glitches making people lose items/np
Unfair freezings
lack of good customer support
vague and "unwritten" rules
absurd warnings/lack of needed warnings
auto-freeze bots
scammers, spammers, hackers
report happy people
non existent responses to on-going problems
pet makeovers (koi is the only nice one so far IMO)
no notification when something important (like the lookup glitch and background code change) is implemented
too much time seeing error or maintenance pages
too much merchandise/attention to merchandise and $$ and not enough to the site
:? being addicted to the site to the point where I don't quit in spite of all the problems that makes me want to quit sometimes

my pets!
having a reason to learn html, css and how to make some graphics
meeting new, wonderful people
getting the chance to help people and make them happy, even if it's just by helping them with a background, lookup or a kind word
having a way to be a spendthrift without going bankrupt in real life (i.e. my gallery - I DO love to shop)
getting an avatar for being a packrat (need this one in real life)
the real life aisha family of plushies that I'll never part with
an excuse to go eat Mcdonald's
PPT! and all of you

That's all I can think of right now

The filters on the boards are horrible, if you post something like "hell" or "damn" it dosen't even filter it, when they are extremely vulgar curses, and fart itself is vulgar. And if you say something like "bikini" you get a warning. Family site? Yeah right.

The Moehogs and Lennys look MUCH better.
Do the Tuskanninny now!
Yurbles!
Neoschools
Unfair Freezings
Unfair freezings/unwritten rules
Glitches
Pet Makeovers

The whole "fart shop" that won the shop spotlight is disgraceful
Neoschools is one of the running jokes that is just annoying
Adam likes asparagus... oh wait I guess that's a
getting REs more often (as if Adam actually did that)

Well, let's see, in recent times

THE GOOD
- Organizing the stocks alphabetically. It was something simply to do and a huge improvement, made managing the stocks a lot easier
- The grey paintbrush
- Freaky Factory game
- Translation to Portuguese (well, I am brazilian, I like to see lots of countrymen around)
- Kreludor bookshop

THE BAD
- Neo goes down now in just two ocasions: all day and every day.
- Lack of focus: there's too many projects going on, and obviously not enough people to handle'em.

TTHE UGLY
- dung PPB. I mean, come on!

SELECTIVE CENSORSHIP!

Pssst, if a mod wants to magically shorten that with some magical HTML, I wouldn't complain. I used to know how to code long, long ago. Really, I did.

Found in editorial for this week:


Ha! yeah. OOPS! We completely forgot we promised these items SIX months ago, but here they are, with absolutely NO apology, since you're really of no importance to us, as long as you keep bringing in those pageviews!

Yeah, funny how that works. Head in the game guys. If it were the first time, I'd be forgiving. Right now I'm not forgiving, I'm yelling. There's a difference.

Glitches that make you lose many np's worth of stuff
Trying to play neoquest on dial up connection
Trying to restock on dial up connection
Downtime

People I've met
My pets
The massive amounts of time I've spent purely enjoying myself
Escaping from real life troubles for a while
Pink Lennies
The amazing amounts of subtle humour hidden in so many places
Improving my HTML CSS and graphics skills
SO many fun games to play!
Grey paintbrush is SO fun!
All the "non-cutesy" things that make it more bearable
Snarhooks!
A whole heap more things, but I better stop now

Inflation is so horrible it seems I can't even afford an omlette... That is FREE!
NQ2
Neopets is a supplement of something to do... Being how I have no life, and devoted the rest of it I did have to playing. But.. Is that a good thing?
