The Neopian Times

The Editorial section has changed. To make it more useful to everybody we have decided to take the most frequently asked questions we receive each week here so you can get a thorough answer straight away from one of the creators of NeoPets. Here are the most frequently asked questions NeoPets support received this week:

1 - When will the employment agency open??
Very, very soon. It is the next thing we want to work on as soon as we have launched the Ski Lodge game.
2 - When is the Ski Lodge going to be open?
The Ski Lodge will be opening up for business today. It will be a new game where you, the players get to decide what happens. Keep checking back for more news about 'Murder on Terror Mountain'.
3 - What kind of jobs will my NeoPets be able to get?
The type of job your NeoPet will have depends on its age, level and experience. There will be something to suit everyone from the strongest Lupe to the smallest Chia :)
4 - Can I get a Faerie Totem without signing up with sponsors?
Yes, Faerie Totems are given out as random events to a lucky few as they play the site.
5 - How do you name your NeoPet's Petpet?
Click on 'Quick Ref' to see a list of your NeoPets. If you have given one of your pets a petpet it will appear here. Click on the Petpet to go to a new page. Here you can enter a name for your petpet and even talk to it :)
6 - I zapped my NeoPet with the ray gun, how do you get it back to its old self?
If your NeoPet has been zapped or transformed in anyway (including using magical items), you have to find another paintbrush or potion that will turn your NeoPet back to the way it was. Alternatively you could always try the ray gun again.
7 - Why is the Money Tree always empty?
The Money Tree is only filled when kind Neopians donate items or NeoPoints to the needy. Occasionally some of Neopia's friendlier ghosts will deposit something special there too.
8 - Can I enroll my pet in a school to raise the intelligence?
A school is something we may be adding in the future, but for now you can raise your NeoPets intelligence by reading it books. You can normally find books on sale in the Marketplace for less than 30 NP each.
9 -How do you get to Kiko Lake or Roo Island?
At the moment Roo Island is not open to the public but King Roo is considering permitting small, organised tours in the future. Kiko Lake is private property and anyone who has trespassed there has never been seen again.
