As long as they don't have spywares on the site, it's fine with me. They have to live and eat too.

You know, honestly, I'm sick of everyone complaining about the stupid ads on the top. If you don't like them, stop playing the game. Seriously. With all of the pageviews, and bandwidth, and people they have to hire, it's a necessary evil that it has to be there. Period. At least they made it so it shows mostly Neopets ads. But it's still not good enough for some people. Just, if you don't like the ads, just stop playing.

Meowth, I'll tell you what the problem is.

It's that TNT cares more about its sponsors than its members.

How many plots/ideas have been scrapped or delayed (Sloth plot, neoschools, etc)?

How many more new sponsors have they added?

Why is it that they can put up ads for Ebay, but if you say that word, you're iced?

Why is it that they can put up a disgusting ad that shouldn't been seen by children, but if you say that someone is "hot," you're iced?

Why is it that families that share their computer are iced? Why is it that people who use computer cafes are iced? Doesn't Neopets want more members? Do they really think that every member has their own computer? Do they really think that not a single member might share/borrow a computer?

I am a Neopet consumer. Even though the membership to Neopets is free (excluding premium), I buy the cards, get the magazine, collect the figures, plushes, stationary, jewelry, etc.

As a paying consumer and a longtime member of Neopets, I do not feel like a valued member. I feel disposable. My membership could be terminated at any time because of something that isn't my fault, or because a rule was changed without public knowledge.

I feel that my membership with Neopets is just a number. They have millions of members, but don't forget, iced members are still members. They are frozen, not deleted.

In fact, I'm starting to think that Neopets is icing members, knowing that they will get new accounts, to increase that number. The higher the membership numbers, the more sponsors are willing to pay for advertising, and the more sponsors are willing to join the advertising.

I have worked hard for my account. But it could be all wiped away with just a keystroke for little or no reason.

We aren't valued members. We're just numbers.

That's what the big deal is, Meowth.

I've already discussed this in another thread; the truth is, there is nothing we can do about it, and we should just let things run its course until we can no longer tolerate or hopefully things get better.

LupetyLupe, I'll give you one answer to all your "Why is questions".

Because, TNT isn't perfect. Live with it.

I really don't like the attitude that NONE of the staff care about us. I'll tell you now, a good amount of the people give a damn about the players, and Adam at least has the time to come on these boards and speak his piece every now and then. It's not right to say that all of them are evil commercially-driven drones of Doug Dohring.

Wow, I'm surprised that you both are all right with horrible customer satisfaction and membership appreciation.

If it was a free site with no merchandise, I could understand. But they market a lot of items, of which I no longer purchase because of how they treat us.

Don't get me or the rest of us wrong. WE ARE NOT OK with the customer support or the lack of appreciation by some, if not most staff members. But when I weigh the positives against the negatives, I'd rather stay and appreciate what I get for offering nothing in return but pageviews.

Exactly.

If you have a problem with Neopets, fine. But then why are you still here, talking about them, and still playing Neopets. If it was so horrible, you should be long gone.

This thread seems to be descending unto the level of flames.
Good hearted debating is one thing, inadvertantly telling people to leave is another.

Locked.
