Summary of the boards and what users can expect in each, and what is primarily talked about |
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.

Non-plot boards

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 freezable offence.
- There are several easter eggs that appear when certain messages are posted.
- Ghostbusters!: Posting 5514344, the telephone number for the 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- %5000 Glitch: Although no longer active, posting %5000 used to cause P00 to be displayed in its place.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 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.
- The dude glitch: Posting dude14 causes it to put -blocked-
