So, here begins an article about Neopets and school. In case you haven’t noticed, some people play Neopets at… SCHOOL! WOW! (ok, ok, I’ll stop)
First of all, you guys (and girls) have got to get together and lay down some ground rules. Here are the ones for our school. 1. If you forget to log out, too bad. 2. If you want a battledome challenge, then you have to tell that person (in person) first. 3. If a n00b wants help, give it to them, unless they’re starting to get annoying.
All right, so we have ground rules. Not that they’re unchangeable. Now, lets say a new guy (or girl) show up in the computer lab (or wherever) and they see some people playing neopets and want to sign up. In our school, we send someone (usually me) to go over and help him (or her) with all the basics. After they’ve signed up, we give them a quick tutorial, and tell them to ask for help if they need it.
