'''The Neopets Team''' (''TNT'' for short) are the official employees of Neopets Inc. who work on the [[Neopets (website)|website]]. Their official user account [http://www.neopets.com/randomfriend.phtml?user=theneopetsteam theneopetsteam] is the only account in which the TNT will official contact users through [[NeoMail]], a fact strengthened all the more with the exploding ''TNT'' [[avatar]] (TNT shares the same abbreviation as the explosive [[Wikipedia:Trinitrotoluene|Trinitrotoluene]]), used only by the The Neopets Team. They seem to have a strange obsession with [[asparagus]].
'''The Neopets Team''', or '''TNT''', are the staff members employed to work on the ''[[Neopets]]'' website. The term includes all the creative, programming and support staff, as well as the site monitors and localisation teams.  


==User account types==
Official [[Neomail]] messages and [[Neoboard]] posts come from the official Neopets user account, [http://www.neopets.com/randomfriend.phtml?user=theneopetsteam theneopetsteam], identifiable by their unique exploding [[Wikipedia:Trinitrotoluene|TNT]] avatar. Individual staff members have their own work accounts for testing things, separate to their private accounts they can play with. Staff work accounts have a tag on the bottom of their [[user lookup]] identifying their position - monitor, lawyer, writer, and so on. Other accounts are set up by TNT for specific, automated tasks, like creating [[Auction]]s.  
Sometimes a member of TNT has their own user account, and if they choose can signify they are a member of TNT by a tag on the bottom of their [[User Lookup]]. There are also other accounts which are used for special purposes on Neopets. The collected ones are...
 
*'''Monitor''' - The most basic kind of account. Monitors watch over the interactions between users on the site. Sometimes artists, writers and other employees are given this account type, often confusing regular users. Some monitors are responsible for one country only. These are listed as "Non-US-Monitors" at the end of this article.
*'''Auction''' - This type of account creates special auctions in the [[Auction House]] for regular users to bid on. The [[item]]s involved usually are very rare.
*'''Lawyer''' - Account given to [[Lawyerbot]], the lawyer for Neopets. Used by Lawyerbot to find spammers, scammers, and other illegal activities on Neopets.
*'''Programmer''' - Programmers create games and plots around the site.

Before Maverick could come after Beader, she trapped him in a cage. Before the police could arrest him, he exploded, for he was a robotic replica made by a mysterious villain, possibly Dr Sloth.

The Neopets Team, or TNT, are the staff members employed to work on the Neopets website. The term includes all the creative, programming and support staff, as well as the site monitors and localisation teams.

Official Neomail messages and Neoboard posts come from the official Neopets user account, theneopetsteam, identifiable by their unique exploding TNT avatar. Individual staff members have their own work accounts for testing things, separate to their private accounts they can play with. Staff work accounts have a tag on the bottom of their user lookup identifying their position - monitor, lawyer, writer, and so on. Other accounts are set up by TNT for specific, automated tasks, like creating Auctions.

Neocam

The Neocam gaves users a look into The Neopets Team's headquarters, where they worked to keep Neopets running. The webcam was on 24/7, capturing a new picture every minute. Some images were saved for future enjoyment. Sadly, the Neocam has broken and is not used any more.
