Alright everyone...repeat after me.
*deep breath* It's oooooookaaaayyyyy. *exhale*
Yes, it was mean for Powerpets to say that about Neo. And yes, Neo isn't exactly the most wonderful place on earth. But let's agree on one thing. All of us are here because of Neopets. We would have never met if it weren't for Neopets. And Powerpets is just another gaming site with pets. Their obvious dislking for Neopets is because of competition. And that thing written by Powerpets may just have been one staff member, not the whole website.
Take two steps back, look at it from all three angles. (PP's view, Neo's view...and the right view.)
Let's hug, shake hands and apprechiate all three sides of the story.

A nice piece of inflammatory satire. No doubt it was meant to evoke this kind of reaction from the staff and players at Neo, and it also means someone at their site obviously is a frequent visitor to Neopets.com.

Also, under their "intro to powerpets" page, they list some features, one of which is:
"- Breed Minis: Minis are animals, deformed over time through experiments the evil Padam has performed on them. Find mini eggs and hatch them to help out the Minis and give them a chance of a better life."
The evil Padam? GEE I wonder who they mean. Padam, Padam... sounds familiarrrrr.... one of the higher-ups at PP obviously has some RL beef with Adam et al, and has created an entire site purely to engage in mockery. What a worthless doodyhead! :p

really? people defending their favorite virtual pet site is why there are wars and book burnings? WOW what a complete and utter untruth. you cant possibly believe that. i think we have dogmatism to blame for that, actually.

I agree. Let's stick to all sides of the story 'cause we don't need to be dissing either Powerpets or Neopets.
