Someone posted that

and:

Quote:
Neopets is freakin' the **** (I censored that for the reading of kids :) ) outta me.
First - we couldn't see petpages
Second - we couldn't disown pets
Third - Accounts were being logged out of, and we couldn't log back into them.
Fourth - In the pound, the pets names were all something like; "mon, mom" etc.
..People are saying it's a hacker, others aren't. I know it's not a hacker, and it's a glitch.. but i'm still a tad freaked out.


what do you think of this? The neoboard people are FREAKING OUT

That is scary. What the actual image is is a (joke) option for when they had users pick the new-look Gelert (a few years back). As for the message...it looks like a fake, edited screenshot.

I think it looks like something someone did on PSP. Any number of graphics programs could make up a screenie like that.

In response to that quoted post:

1. Probably a database glitch.
2. Also a glitch.
3. Often happens after TNT logs us out of our accounts as "a security measure". It always scares the heck out of everyone, but the problem gets fixed shortly after.
4. That happens all the time, the pets in the pound will all have similar names. It's not unusual, and doesn't have anything to do with TNT.

That screenshot is obviously faked, and the image is (as someone said) an old Gelert revamp image.

Someone's just trying to create panic among the Neoboarders. If any of them have any brains, they'll report him and he'll get frozen for being a doofus.

EDIT: I created a similar screenshot of my own, just to show how easily it can be done. And, if I may say so, mine is much better. *cough* lol I mean, if you're going to fake a screenshot to try and work people into a panic, at least take a little pride in your work. XD

Not actually an April Fools images-- it was a "concept" for a revamped Gelert

Ugh, I remember that...thing. Yup, it was a choice for the gelert makeover a while back, TNT actually had the nerve to say it was winning half way into the poll. Bleh.

Oh... Nice work! It could be fun to try and scare all the newbies with this!
The person who did that first screenshot, he could at least made it a bit more believable... :roll:

Goala yours is better, except for the url.
Paint could do this, let alone PSP or PS.
