Neopets

You should implement Neopets forums instead of making us post in the MMO forum. You have forums for runescape and multiple other servers yet lack dedicated Neopets ones. Feel free to spam/troll.. I'm far too old to get e-butt hurt... :laugh:

 

There's not a big enough market for it.

Wouldn't see the point in introducing it.

The reason we have runescape forum is there is a lot of interest.

You too old to get e-butt hurt? Yet play neopets? Cool story bro.

 

I know, awesome contradiction, right? Neopets is excellent and keeps both my daughter and I entertained together. We can sit side by side on laptops. I understand supply and demand economics.. but when you start to build a dedicated area for demand.. demand will start to build.

 

alphyn listen here bro, i done a quick research.. theres around 21,000 people online on Neopets and theres probably hardly anyone here that actually plays that.. when it comes to runescape.. 200,273 people currently online, thats 10x more than neopets. Maybe what you should do is go to a section that suits it best and make a poll.

 

There are currently 73,000 people online on the site I'm an HTML5 programmer for http://www.mocospace.com/Josh ..Yet, it's created enough revenue to get into transaction talks to purchase Myspace...

I guess I'll post that twice... Lmao.

 

Amazing how you use statistics to justify the fact that Neopets lacks it's own forum, yet "Diablo II & III" have two forums and less than 60 threads between them... yet if you search "Neopets", there are well over 600 threads that discuss Neopets transactions. Flawed logic...

 

Frankly, the Market crowd on Sythe is generally 18+, or at least old enough to have their own online money/bank account. For this age group, I would assume that there would simply not be enough interest in purchasing Neopets stuff, and not enough money-possessing users who would buy something Neopets related.. I mean, come on, my 7 year-old cousin plays Neopets...

 

True, granted my daughter is 8 and can fully grasp every option that Neopets provides.. but that still doesn't account for the fact that Diablo has multiple dedicated forums and Neopets which has a higher demand on this website has none.

 

There's an edit button for a reason. Use it. Don't triple post. Thank you.

 

No because Neopet stuff is easy to get banned from the site for item sales. I know this because every site selling NP says we're not liable for banning. We don't need somone every day buying 10mil form somone and then gets banned the next day so they wanna report people as a scammer.

 

I'm sure there are already plenty of people screaming "scammer" though.. All of these reasons "why not" still don't truly justify it though..

 

What are you talking about, I'm saying that do you want to have every person that gets caught transfering NP/Items to each other get called a scammer when their account gets locked?

 

N4N0 I will spam my own topics if I want.. I'm not restricted from doing so after the first post since the 48 hour limit is defunct. Thank you for your concern though.

People who get their accounts locked/frozen deserve if since they were incapable of bypassing security protocols and sent red flags up. People being called "scammers" is going to happen regardless of what site it's on.

 

Technically, you can't. You are only allowed to "bump" your thread once every 24 hours. "Spamming" bumps your thread. I've seen mods delete posts from users excessively posting in their own thread.

I guess you can have you portion of older ones who play neopets, but the majority of its user are 10 and under, and probably are not interested in buy any points or such.

 

Bro, you cant be a member of any other sites that focus around the other online gaming sites. Quick research isn't enough to commit to anything. If you were to look at a few other sites you would see there is a big market for goods for neopets, and programs to cheat. I know people that do multiple USD$150 sales a day. So the demand is there.

Lol'd at the fact you assume people over 18 don't play neopets. Not even going to provide information on how wrong you are simply because. LOL.

You're just an idiot. You maybe respected here but that comment was stupid.

Most of the time its not the sellers fault if they safely know how to transfer bulk amounts. Its what the buyer does afterwards, I have transferred USD2,000 items safely.

^^ see above reply.

^^ Pretty much this. I will explain more about this if needed.

I dont get why people assume the majority are kids.

Just grabbed that from another mainly neopets orientated site.

A site that closed recently due to fail hardware and backups was pretty much double if not more than those stats.

Most have paypal accounts and buy items.

You guys say there is a lack of demand when there isn't. This site just isn't set up for the demand.

 

Cant build a demand for something thats age targets at 7-12. Last time i checked a 12 year old cant have a pay pal. So their is no market for it.

 

So you're telling me I'm an idiot because I wouldn't know how to safely transfer money + items. I had an account for 7 years for no reason then decided I'd buy something I could sell for alot from a site. They told me they'd send it to me, well 2 days later I was locked and no longer can see the account. So I think I know where I'm coming from.

MMO is fine with this, it's like Maplestory accounts, not enough activity.

 

Ok so maybe using the word idiot was a bit harsh but come on. People need to learn to transfer safely, buyers and sellers.

I would bet on it that if something was done to separate a neopets section it would boost activity.
