What They Say and What They Mean
Written by Kym

What they say: We're nearly done!
What they mean: We're planning to begin this project 8 months down the track

What they say: We'll be releasing this soon!
What they mean: We'll release this feature in the next two years with a minimum waiting time of 12 months, and hence will decide later down the track that this feature is too much work and not release it at all.

What they say: Coming soon to Neopets!
What they mean: You'll have grandchildren before we release this.

What they say: We ended this plot early to give us time to make better features for you!
What they mean: We didn't plan it correctly, things didn't go exactly to plan so we're going to give you a bad ending.

What they say: We know we were going to release the feature today and we even posted it about it yesterday, however, we apologize for the delay.
What they mean: We haven't begun on the feature yet.

What they say: We promise!
What they mean: Haha yeah right.

What they say: If you are lucky enough to have a Virtual Prize Code, you could get one of these cool new plushies when you redeem it!
What they mean: Helllllllo Mr Benjamin!

What they say: Expect the opening of the feature tomorrow!
What they mean: We'll really release the feature in three months, but will point and laugh while you try to figure out why the feature isn't online.

What they say: Expect a really complex and intriguing feature!
What they mean: We spent more than 15 minutes on this one.

What they say: Look how cool this new feature is!
What they mean: We've released another feature which has absolutely no point but maybe if we put in enough exclamation marks, it will look exciting.

What the say: I'll make sure to tell Adam so he can finish it up today or tomorrow.
What they mean: I'm going to delete this email and ignore it.

What they say: I read your email and understand what you are saying but I cannot unfreeze you.
What they mean: *presses delete button*

What they say: As a reminder, JubJub Day is fast approaching so you should start sending in your JubJub themed poems, spotlights, galleries and pictures very soon.
What they mean: We need something... anything!

What they say: Many of you are eagerly awaiting the launch of Neoschools (sorry we are making sure it is as good as we can possibly make it before we release it).
What they mean: Neoschools? What are they??? I don't know what Neoschools is... what is this Neoschool you speak of?

What they say: I'll clarify that with you soon.
What they mean: I have no idea what you are talking about.

What they say: Hi! My name is _____!
What they mean: I have no clue what to write.

What they say: You're frozen,
