The '''NeoBoard''' is a collection of boards which users can post messages to each other around the world pertaining to special topics. Several staff members named ''Moderators'' look over the NeoBoards, making sure users are following the rules. Users can also self-moderate by reporting a message to moderators which they think is unsuitable for Neopets. There is also a filter which prevents a user from using profanity or lewd conduct on the site. However, many users often use symbols or spaces or a combo of them to use profanity, and it isn't filtered.
 
==Forum types==
There are many different boards which can be posted on.
 
===Main forums===
http://images.neopets.com/neoboards/boardIcons/techomaster.gif

'''Battledome''' - ''Find a battle partner! Get weapon information. Anything and everything [[Battledome]] is in here.''

===Other boards===
There are other boards which are part of the Neoboard, but are either hidden or only appear at certain times.
 
'''Plot'''
 
The '''Plot''' board's title and content changes to whatever the current plot is at the time. It's believed [http://www.neopets.com/neoboards/boardlist.phtml?board=7 the link] always remains the same, but is only active when a plot is open. Past titles included:

There's also an Admin Board of DOOM, which can only be seen by TNT and moderators.
 
==Trivia==
*It is possible to make invisible boards on the NeoBoards by using square brackets to make what is written be processed as tags. This is a [[Frozen|freezable]] offence.
*There are several [[Wikipedia:Easter Egg (Media)|easter eggs]] that appear when certain messages are posted.
**'''Ghostbusters!''': Posting ''5514344'', the telephone number for the [[Wikipedia:Ghostbusters|Ghostbusters]] in the movie of the same name, causes ''Ghostbusters!'' to appear in its place
**'''Onion Glitch''': Whenever certain words (likely depending on length) are posted, followed by a hard return, an underscore would appear after it. If the word was followed by a punctuation mark, the underscore would appear before it. The word must begin with ''on'', but some shorter phrase, such as ''only'' do not cause this glitch. Words such as ''online'', and of course ''onion'', do, however.
**'''Jelly World''': Posting in the URL for [[Jelly World]] causes it to be blocked as if it was an off-site link.
**'''%5000 Glitch''': Although no longer active, posting ''%5000'' used to cause ''P00'' to be displayed in its place.
**'''Report me!''':  If the phrase ''this is not a scam'' is posted, it is replaced automatically by ''This is a scam! Report me!''.
**'''Bikinis''': If the phrase ''bikini'' is posted, it is replaced with ''cardigan'', presumably to stop inappropriate conversations. .
**'''Talk like a Pirate''': On [[Wikipedia:International Talk Like a Pirate Day|talk like a pirate day]], some words would come out as common pirate words. For example, "see" turned to "spy" and "n00b" turned to "landlubber."
*There used to be a General Chat board. It was removed because too many users were breaking rules and discussing things they shouldn't be. Its old URL is now used for event boards, such as [[Daily Dare]] and [[Neopia's Style Showdown]]. The Newbie Boards are now used as the General Chat.
