I wonder if the beads obtained through RE's will be non-tradable, else we're going to most likely see a high inflation about them.

Premium gives some players advantages over others for paying.

Or there are enough of them that the price can't get so high, my luck with REs isn't going to end up with me having a lot of these things. :cry:

Yeah but you don't get acess to new worlds and pets just for being a premium, and the prizes you get from premium you can get somewhere else (can't you? i don't know, not a premium) it's diferent

feels like selling the soul to an advertising brand

"If you possess one of the mysterious Lutari Island beads, you can place it on your own Lutari Talisman. The more beads you have, the stronger your Talisman's effects!

From your Inventory, click on the bead and select "Put into your Talisman" from the drop down menu. The bead will then appear on your Talisman below."

Interesting. x3 I wonder how you get the beads. x.x


These are the beads Image

They are named Lutari Bead 1 - Lutari Bead 20 and yes they are searchable

I agree. But premium is also an internet service provider right? There are both an internet and an advantage version.

And it's another US-only thing. I try to look at this mobile page people are referred to, and all I see is the front page. :x

above that you don't have to be special in any way to have premium
to have the mobile thing you need to live in the US (wich i don't) AND have a phone with some tech to acess it AND be in the cingular network! there's alot of AND's here are there not?

Another example of the direction Neo is going. all about the allmighty dollar (or pound as they are British, even living in the US). Restricting worlds like they used to do (showing my age here), such as the totems you had to have to have access to faerieland or the Ice Caves were bad enough. I had to wait until they opened them up for everyone before I could get in. At least that was fair, as everyone had the same chance to get one. this is even worse than the coco roller avatar. It's disgusting.
I think we should all write very unpleasant emails to TNT for this ridiculous.

Wed Jun 28, 2006 2:09 am

yes lots of ands. Lets see there is Must be: US Resident: Have A Cell Phone: Cingular Network Member: Phone Web Access: Parents (maybe) allowing you to use the web access: $$ to pay for the service

Yeah, it's lame. I don't think Neopets can rightfully continue to claim it's 'free' if a list of features like that is available exclusively to people subscribing to some mobile phone function.

Worst thing about this blatant exploit is that you'd now have to get both that and premium to get everything. Next thing we know we'll be buying neopets expansion packs.

I'd definitely write them a politely critical email. Anyone have the adress?
