I don't think that's the case.
The new items are far less desiarable for a lot of galeries (As people have mentioned) not to mention that at least one of them (Sparkling apple juice) has an almost identical item already in circulation.

Overall it's fairly dissapointing.
I wish they could have turned them into wine vinegar.
Rose wine vinegar seems much better than apple juice

I think it's stupid. Barely anyone even had the wine anyway. Like three mentions of wine is gonna corrupt a child. There are things way, way worse than wine on the Neoboards that may actually really bother a kid (I mean if you're eight years old and see the kind of boards posted there from time to time, you're gonna be freaked out), yet no one acts against that... hm.

As for the "Well you can't view the Neoboards if you're under 13!" arguement I sense will come, some kids are gonna want parental permission so they can Neomail their friends and stuff, and I'm sure a lot of those kids are gonna click on that mysterious "Boards" link they never could click on before... I know I did when I got permission (er, made an account and said I was 13).

Long story short: Neopets should stop giving into the petty complaints of crappy mothers and tell them to shut up and raise their kid right. The end.


Which no one who goes out and says "This CAN NOT be on a kids site!" does anymore, hence why kids for the most part are messed up :)

They should put the wine back in and have it make your Neopets sick when they drink it, so it doesn't look like they're promoting alchohol. :P

Does anyone remember that joke that somebody made about how TNT would change all the wines into Apples, because it would offend certain over-protective parents? Then it went on to say that dung items would be next because they disgust certain people. Or something like that, in the end leading to all items on Neo becoming Apples.

It has begun...

Apples?! ...

Well, as long as there are pink apples and marshmallow apples ... :P

I think it's not the complaints of the crappy mothers but the complaints of sponsors / bosses of company who owns neo that made them change wine into juice...

I see nothing wrong with wine and most people end up being drunk on beer and other hard liquor not wine...wine has health benefits..some people are really dumb down to a t.

Nooo :cry: my favorite items! Gah, this makes me mad -.-. I have all three in my gallery and now they're lame.

I am honestly sorry to hear that.

It stupid. Like Azzie said, people get drunk on Hard liquors and Beer, not wine. If anything TNT should make the Wine raise your pet's Health or something because of all the Health benifits.

This is sad of them. Maybe Adam or Donna didn't want this, but had too due to their "contract" with people. You know, Wizards and others. The people who 'run the show' if you will.
