Shop Pricing: The Most Boring Process in Neopia and What Neopets Can do to Help by Xandria Woolseyia

Today I saw that I had a lot of items in my shop… good, right? No. All of these items were set at 99,999 neopoints, and I wanted to make money, not just show off my items, seeing as they were the most random things in the world. So what do I decide to do? Go through the tedious process of pricing my items.

I get in a good rhythm; copy an item name and paste it into Microsoft Word. Copy the next item name, paste it. And so on and so forth until I have my first thirty items in Microsoft Word and can now look up their prices. Now I have to copy the names of all these same items again and paste them into the Shop Wizard search box. After refreshing many times, I find the actual lowest price and decide to put my item a few neopoints below that one. Looking at the clock, I realize all of this has taken me eight minutes, and what do I have to show but the price of one item?

Wheel of Misfortune Guide by this_wunnerful_world

The Wheel of Misfortune can be found in the Deserted Fairground. It costs 100 NP to operate. You can only spin it once every two hours. There are eight possible outcomes:

Outcome 1

The Pant Devil (scary blue guy) steals one of your items. This is why we have safety deposit boxes. Please don’t get complacent, as there is nothing you can do to protect against a bad random event except to use the Bank and your Safety Deposit Box.

Outcome 2

Pox: Your pet catches a disease from the wheel. Don’t panic, as these can most often be easily cured by inexpensive medications found through the Shop Wizard. My pet caught the Itchy Scratchies, but I cured it with Itchy Scratchy Cream. Unfortunately, I have no idea where to find cheap cures for expensive diseases.

My Neopets Thoughts: Neopoints Aren’t Everything by Lina

Before I started my Neopets account, all my friends were saying that it was a very boring site. I however being the only one of my friends whom had never tried neopets, I decided to give it a shot.

I created my Neopets account and created my first neopet. Then I slowly started to really enjoy the site, exploring around the world of Neopia, playing games, winning neopoints – which is now one of my obsessions. Because of that i decided to win even more neopoints by creating my shop.

Then one day when i logged on, And went to pets central, and scrolled down, I saw the Neopian adoption agency link. I clicked it and when I saw what it was i decided to get three more adopted neopets.

Increase Your Guild’s Page Views by Samantha Thomson

If you are having trouble getting members, then a good way to get people interested is by increasing your guild’s page views.

I know from experience that before I had my own guild and I was looking for one to join, one thing that would stand out was how many page views a guild had.

The more page views your guild has, the more that visitors will think your guild is popular because so many people have looked at it.

A guild with page views into the thousands is good. Most people like a popular guild because they know it will always be active.
