So people where seeing some very strange events happening!

I know tnt could be stupid sometimes, but they wouldn't make a silly spelling mistake like that. Whoever wrote that is most likly making it up.


Not to take a side (I'll try to be totally neutral on this one) but TNT often makes spelling/grammatical errors, the message you get when you hit spin again on the WOK is still way off of being correct. ;) Many items and their descriptions contain spelling errors/typos etc...(and I'm not counting in the difference in spelling of certain items in American English vs. Oxford). :lol:

Hmmm what about manually refreshing...I was half asleep at 2 am last night just refreshing cause I was bored. =/ I do thatf rom time to time though, but I never hold the f5 button down or use auto-refresh...I just refresh to some music I'm listening to. :(

I think the most classic example of this is the fact that 'Shops now get restock twice as much!'

They fixed that error recently, but it was there for -years-. It sounds like a bad translation from Japanese. "Goodly shops ultra restock mega plus!"[/quote]

I think it may have been to do with the random events!! Everyone was re freshing so it may off crashed the system!

there's someone in the neopets office now (i just got 2 emails from darcy in TNT), so hopefully it'll be back up again soon...


I would love to talk to someone like that! Lol! Maybe directly talking with one would get me my sprint_boy account back...given it's been two years...


they weren't like that. they were the bog standard 'thanks for your submission...' ones. :)

:o

But I could have sworn I saw ultra restock mega plus at super icy happy fun shop! (hehe, kidding, that was too funny not to type again.) ;)

My fave that also sounds like Japanese "Engrish" translations: Fyora saying "Thank you for your custom!" at Hidden Tower. :lol: I almost wait for her to add in "You are super happy customer number one! Come back soon!" :D

Mr. Powell visits here often. :) I'm sure he's aware of the situation though, I've never seen him be "off the ball" during things like this. I'm sure there are plenty of staff working on the situation right now.

Yeah, well its just gone 12 noon NST and the site is still down, so even if that info was true, Toxic, its at least 3 hours old, if not longer. also, the site went down at roughly 3 am NST, and your info says that the site had been down for 7 hours 33 mins, ie, this info was at 10:30 am or thereabouts, and yet your info also says that
We are working on getting back on before 9am this morning!

so TNT either are working in Hypertime (gotta love ClockStoppers :P ) or this info is false, and i think that the latter option is the more likely.

YAY, im a detective :P :roflol:

I don't know what to do with myself today! I don't have to work, so I'm sitting around the house being bored. Usually I play Neopets games when I'm bored (or while I watch TV or whatever), so I can't think of anything else to do! I hope it's not down all evening...

Tue Nov 16, 2004 8:05 pm

Hmm, its been down for some time now. Didnt play on neopets and now its nearly my bedtime :cry:

Tue Nov 16, 2004 8:07 pm

Its offcial, neopets is like a drug and im 24!

Tue Nov 16, 2004 8:08 pm

Rubia: Aww... I know how you feel... It's like 10 past 8 and I have to get off the PC soon to watch Wife Swap :P

What ever it is, it is not part of maintence.

This is the strangest thing that has ever happened on Neopets.... I think maybe they got hit hard with something bad. Like a virus or something.
