SO many saying they are or ahve given up neopets ... so why are they talking here? I guess talking about Neopets is still allowed.

Actually, it's because this is the one spot of sanity in the world of the web. Yes, some people are probably still around hoping that Neopets improves or becomes ...

Me too... I only go to neopets now to check the news.. and maybe get the new avatar.. RuneScape has stolen me.. it is too addictive.. XD

I did the news the last two days.. and *shrug* just going, "You know this isn't fun any more." Besides, I have my mush, City of Heroes and Real Life.. Okay ...

Leaving Neopets is very possible

I've noticed lately that I have no interest in anything going on in Neopets any more. Yeah.. Advent Calendar, the new plot.. none of it drags me to my keyboard anymore and onto Neopets.
I've got other games and things that seem to take up the time and attention that Neopets used to get, and they ...

I get the HUGE ad banner, still. I still would like to know why they can't just put it at the bottom of the page? I mean, they aren't being very nice to players by putting it up at the top. Yeah, it was nice of them to warn us, but can't they at least do that for us?

Hehe, that's another of the minor but suprisingly annoying disadvantages of Firefox. Even if you press enter it takes some time to respond, unlike the "jump to" function which responds almost instantaneously. Just switch to IE when you are restocking (but then you'll have to scroll more).

Or ...

Avatar aside.. I am not happy in the least. This is almost the last straw for me playing Neopets. I ran accross an ad that I simply could not block with Foxfire on one of the pages and now.. Forget it.
I had enough issues with the overly unbalanced yellow.. but to have a honking HUGE banner ad ...

I wish they would post some news of whats going on in the portal... considering that and the front page of neo are the only ones working...

Oh the irony. I'd just popped onto Neopets, and managed a total of three page navigations, and BOOM it goes down. **waits** It's 6:30 AM in California, 8:30 here. Nothing else to do... **twitches** Maybe I'll watch a movie.

Okay, ahem, got that out of the system. Needless to say, I usually avoid the neoboards. They've gone down hill in the two years I've been with the site.. because I used to be found on the Help Chat.
I'm just very glad that I am not a mod for them.. otherwise... Gee ...

I, like Morningstar, hate to be a doomsayer of the extreme.. but I've been frozen for over a year and heard very little back on it, in spite of all attempts. The autoform is the world's biggest joke.. fill it out once and then send a snail-mail.. because it doesn't allow you to tell your side of the ...

I smell much resentment and bitterness in that post... hmm.

However, I disagree with the paragraoh quoted. While their target audience *may* be the younger market who have the shortest attention span, newer customers constantly replace the old ones, and so long Neopets continues to receive so much ...

1. Freezing doesn't mean actually being put in ice.

2. Virtual Life isn't fair.

3. A virtual site should be used only as a means of fighting boredom, not as
a way of life.

4 Falling asleep at the keyboard HURTS as well as results in the condition
called "Waffle Face."

5. I hated ...

Neo needs to get back to it's roots, and start listening to the players. Either that, or I fear the worst...what was once a small "pasttime" of dedicated players will become an "old fad" on the global opinion, and we'll all soon be typing in w to find no game, no fun, not even ads....

I've noticed that almost all of the flash things are lagging because I can get to the non-flash stuff pretty easily.
