Neopets Premium & Toolbar now available to the public!

I think people care less about the portal and more about the other benefits like more RE's etc that might come with signing up. I don't really bother though, i wouldn't change to a neopets portal even if it was free.

It is out, and it is an ISP/Email/Portal/Toolbar thingy. All of which you can get better, with reliable support elsewhere and for the last 3 things, for free. 39.95 per year for the Premium Accounts. It gives you X amount of Neopoints upon signup and what was it? Two times the chance for RE's. Plus an Avi.

What, the Portal's not free? I thought it was.

The ISP thing is a ripoff, and I'll leave it at that.
I hate Velociraptor or whatever that company's called.

I'm still failing to see the problem.

I think what it eventually comes down to, is that most people are worried about these currently non-existant items that people who pay for the toolbar or whatever may or may not get. Do you think that Neopets will be giving them Super Attack Pea's or something?

Surpise, you'd have to pay for that. Just like you would a royal paintbrush, or a garoo blaster, or a faerie queen doll. Only this would be money that you earn in the real world?

Is it much different if you spend an hour restocking in the toy shop or an hour restocking Safeway?

Either way, you'll still most likely be able to buy what ever alleged item that may or may not be given to people who sign up for the poorly worded service from the people who sign up for the service.

Ah, the haves and have nots. That's what most are complaining about. I personally just want the site to have better support, even for the free site. If I can't get it without paying for what is supposed to be a free game, then.. it's time to end the suffering.

Is it too much to ask for better support? Obviously, with Neopets, it is.
