'''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.  
'''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 is [[Wikipedia:Trinitrotoluene|Trinitrotoluene]]), used only by the The Neopets Team. They seem to have a strange obsession with [[asparagus]].


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.  
==User account types==
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...


The TNT are featured in the game [[TNT Staff Smasher]].  
*'''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 Laywerbot to find spammers, scammers, and other illegal activities on Neopets.
*'''Programmer''' - Programmers create games and plots around the site.

The Neopets Team journeyed to the newly-discovered [[Mystery Island]] where they became part of an elimination-survival game, with each week a member being sacrificed to [[Mumbo Pango]], a god of the native [[Coconut People]], until only one remained - [[Donna]]. A gold statue was built in her honour.

{{Main|Ski Lodge Murder Mystery}}


The Neopets Team, on holiday in [[Terror Mountain]], were trapped in the old Ski Lodge by a freak snowstorm. Unable to leave the mansion, one by one the staff members were picked off by a mysterious murderer in their midst until only the murderer and one last staff member survived: [[Maverick]] and [[Beader]] respectively. 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.

The '''Neocam''' gave users a look into The Neopets Team's headquarters, where they worked to keep Neopets running. The [[Wikipedia:webcam|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.
