News For the Newbies

by wolfcub73

Are you a newbie and have no idea what NeoPets is about? Well, read this to find out.

1. NeoPets is basically teaching you to be responsible, while having fun. You have to feed and care for your pets for them to be happy and content.

2. My two cents on money making Everyone wants to know how to earn money, so I might as well add my two cents in on that. The first, important, thing is to open a bank account. Every day before you log off NeoPets put in all the money you have over 1,000. For instance, If you had 1,207 you would put 207 into the bank. I know what you are thinking, that doesn't earn me money. It doesn't, but you start accumulating a lot of money. I just opened a Diamond Deposit bank account. Another trick is to hang around those stores that get sold out fast such as the Food Shop, the Magic Shop, the Slushie Shop, and the Ice Food Shop. As soon as they get restocked, buy whatever you can and write down how much you paid for them. Open a shop, (I know it costs 250 NP but it is worth it) you don't really need a shop bigger then size one! Put those items you just bought into the shop then check the shop wizard for each item. Take the lowest price on each item and make yours even lower then that. Your shop will be sold out quickly for sure. Note: The price for Codestones is usually so high that you don't know how much to sell them for. I sell them for 875 NP and I get a lot of points fast.

3. Adoption IS the Option (Referring back to a previous article in the times). When I first started NeoPets I never had articles like this to help me out. I made all my pets and now I regret that. I am not going to throw out my pets, because that is just as bad as making one. Go to the pound to get your NeoPets I had some experience with throwing out pets, I think I will let my Zafara, JuniferBoy, take over now: My mommy decided that she didn't like how the new Zafaras looked so she abandoned me!! Then she went and made a KAU! Can you believe it! (No personal offense to any Kau owners who might be reading this). After a day she finally realized how STUPID she was and the got me back. She doesn't realize how lucky she was that I was still there. Back to mommy: One other thing about adoption, let's say you walk into the pound, look around for a long time, and still find no pets you like. Don't make one, just wait and pretty soon you will find a pet that is right for you.

4. How Many? Another question that some people ask is: How many NeoPets is right for my budget? I think that depending how much money you have really decides it. If you just started out, only adopt one NeoPet. If you have over 2,000 NP, adopt another. If you have over 4,000 NP, then you should have 3. If you have over 10,000, then you should have 4 NeoPets Of course, that is just my opinion, some people are happy just to take in and concentrate solely on one NeoPet. Others adopt 4 right from the start. I am not against either of those methods, I am just telling you mine.

5. What class am I in? So many people want to know that right from the start, and there are really no real classes, but the way I divide people up is like this:

1-10,000 NP=low class
10,001-100,000=middle class
100,001 and up=upper class.

I am in the middle class with 55,000 NP. Well, I hope you enjoyed and perhaps learned something from this article. Remember that this is all my opinion and if you disagree with anything that I have written here, that's all right.
