They Say: 'Neoschools are coming soon, honest!'

They Mean: 'Next time somebody asks us we'll say the same thing.'

----------------------------------------------

They Say: 'Don't the orange spots on this new Purple pet look super cute?'

They Mean: 'They are really hideously ugly but we are too blind and deaf to the people telling us their feelings about them that aren't good.'

----------------------------------------------

They Say: 'That pet colour is coming soon, honest!'

They Mean: 'That pet colour is coming in about three years.'

----------------------------------------------

They Say: 'Now you can paint your Tonu Christmas!'

They Mean: 'Actually you can't because we've forgotten to activate it in the rainbow pool.'

---------------------------------------------

They Say: 'Jelly World doesn't exist!'

They Mean: 'Virtupets Space Station doesn't exist!'

They say: We will soon allow Neopets to breed with each other!

They mean: When we are finally able to do this, we will be morally opposed to it.

They Say: 'This is rather a drastic change, but we think it is for the better.'

They Mean: 'We are going to totally screw over Koi owners whose pet's personality was based on the old version because we didn't bother to ask them what they felt about the new version.'

They say: Restock codes make the game fair for all players!

i know that a lot of neopets users who don't get manipulated by PPT to dislike the orange spots like those spots! Don't see what's wrong with them...

But to stay on topic...

They Say: 'Oy, i'll get Adam to work on it right now! *pokes adam*'

They Mean: 'Adam's sleeping, i'm not going to wake him up now!

'A lot', maybe, but they're in the minority. I once stumbled across an orange-spot-despising guild with about 250 members, and every last person on the Neocolours forums despise the spots to the end of the earth.
