'''The Neopets Team''' | '''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, [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. | |||
The TNT are featured in the game [[TNT Staff Smasher]]. | |||
