1.The GUP stands for Green Uni Project.
2.The point of the GUP is to change painted and limited edition pets to Green Unis by morphing them.
3.The GUP want people to love Green Unis.
4.There is the Anti-GUP, and GUP. They both have two different purposes.
5.No point in making a board about it. This explains just about everything. If you have any questions, neomail me, maybe I can clear things up?
6.Adding to point 5, don't make a board about it on the Help Chat. Everyone is already stressed out.
7.Don't pick the Anti-GUP side right away, please choose wisely and slowly.
8.(THIS IS SERIOUSLY THE MOST ASKED QUESTION)
Who is the leader of GUP? Troythebearest is his username.

Note: If someone says they're pet has been "Guped", it means their pet was painted or limited edition and it was morphed into a Green Uni. It was "guped".

IMPORTANT. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop sending hate mail to GUP/GUP supporters. You may think you are doing a GOOD thing, when really, you're just FLAMING and HURTING another LIVING person in this world. Think you're a "mature" person? Then you flame someone? NO. You're not. LEAVE GUP ALONE. If they're not harming you at all, fine. Did you put a pet in the pound and it was snatched by GUP? TOO BAD. You put the pet in the pound. TNT clearly states (I'VE REMINDED PEOPLE OF THIS A BUNCH OF TIMES) one the pet hits the pound, IT'S ANYONE'S PET. So just STOP flaming GUP. You can get reported for it, and they are doing nothing wrong. LEAVE GUP ALONE.
Thank you =)

1.Do pounding boards annoy you?
A) No.
B) Yes.
C) Not really.


2.Do pound surf boards annoy you?
A) No.
B) Yes.
C) Not really.


3. Do you like green unis?
A) Yes.
B) No.
C) Not really.

B) Yes.
C) Not really.


5.Are you against rules of trying to adopt pets?

6.Do you think people should earn their own pets instead of using the pound?
A)Yes.
B)No.
C)Not really.


4 simple questions. This test may not COMPLETELY suit you, let me tell you. THIS TEST MAY JUST MAKE YOU CHOOSE SOMETHING. But this test is made only to guide you, not to decide for you.

If you got mostly "A"...GUP is what you would support.
If you got mostly "B"...Anti-GUP is what you would support.
If you got mostly "C"...You would support BOTH.

This test is not COMPLETELY accurate, it is only here to guide you. So don't yell at me if it's completely wrong and you want to support something else. Because it does not really matter. This is just what I would think you would support.

I think the GUP are mixed people. They're nice, and mean. If you flame them...Karma. What goes around, comes around. Though I was perfectly nice, I got flamed by a GUP member. I was thoroughly disappointed with this person. But I met some nice GUP people. They're normal people on neopets just like you and me.

The GUP get a lot of attention, and it is not always their fault. You can say I'm just making it worse, but everyone is. Buzzing around talking about it, making petpages about it...It's all the same. Everyone wants to have something important with the GUP people. The GUP owner had to make the boards to start them off, but now there is usually a board about them at least every half an hour.

The GUP's purpose is simple. Get painted and limited edition pets and turn them into green unis.

As for the Anti-GUP, they try to adopt Green Unis from the pound and turn them into a different colour/species.

The GUP reminds me of The Neopian Writers. They came in on the HC and panicked everyone. It was quite horrible. Everyone arguing, flaming, just ugly. The GUP are much nicer though, as The Neopian Writers kept saying "The Neopian Writers Rule, bow down to us!"

I neither agree nor diagree from the GUP. The GUP have their own choice to do what they want the moment the pet hits the pound. You cannot report them for anything. But if the GUP are asking you to give up your pet to them so they can turn it into a Green Uni, that is against the rules, and is reportable. 1 member has already done that, and was reported. I'm not sure what happened, but I'm guessing it wasn't a beautiful result.

So, what do you think of my page? You can neomail me with any comments.

The GUP leader knows about my page, and is fine with it. So you cannot report me as I am doing nothing wrong. Thank you. =)

It just so happens that I saw in the editorial, this little piece. I hope this clears things up:

There is a Petpage where it sponsors a place for adopting and morphing rare painted pets into green Unis. Is this reportable? The boards are going crazy about it! The Petpage is called GUP: Green Uni Project. ~anticipating

And...

Hallo thur TNT! =D I'm sure it has already been brought to your attention, but there is a new group of people who call themselves "GUP" (Green Uni Project). They have been causing quite a stir on the help chat, and when I went to investigate I was horrified to find out what they were doing! They are pound surfing for painted Neopets to morph into green Unis as they believe that people should work for their Neopets, instead of adopting them. I know that once a Neopet enters the Pound it is up to anyone what they do once they adopt it. But this is a bit far, no? x-x So, I was just wondering, is there anything you can do about this? Or are the "GUP" members going to be left to carry on with their green Uni-ifying? Thanks, TNT! ^^ Also, could you pretty please leave my name out?

And many, many more...

This is not reportable unless said users are breaking rules, such as using programs to adopt the Neopets, or outright lying or scamming to trick people into giving up their Neopets so they can nick them from the pound during a transfer. Under normal circumstances, though, once a Neopet is abandoned by its previous owner, the only person who has the right to decide how to take care of or alter the Neopet is the new owner. Some people like to adopt and cure the Neopet of any illness and feed them. Others zap them with the Lab Ray. Others… turn them into green Unis. It is the way of things. However, since we got an amazing number of questions regarding this, we'll expand our thoughts on it so you fully understand.

To be quite honest, our first reaction was, "ROFL!!" It's amusing to see all the different things players come up with to do on Neopets that we've never even imagined. ;) So we were actually more than a little amused at the true intentions of "GUP" or any group like them. In reality, begging for painted Neopets or surfing the pound looking for Neopets and only adopting them because of their colour, while perfectly legitimate, is, well... we'll just say it's not as rewarding an experience as creating a Neopet (or adopting one) and enhancing it yourself. While many players consider the practice of these "GUP" users "cruel," we find it no more cruel than people who only adopt Neopets for their use as a status symbol and dump them back in the pound as soon as a "better" colour comes along... or people who require outrageous "applications" for their Neopets only to use it to draw attention to themselves and hold other users in the balance while they decide. Why isn't any of that considered taking it "too far?" Of course we know not everyone is like this, but a lot of users are, and we don't blame anyone for taking a stand against it.

In any case, no matter which "side" you've chosen, no one has the right to spam or harass another person for ANY reason. You're welcome to disagree and debate the various points of view or express your opinions on the subject, but keep it civil. And remember... Neopets is a game. It's supposed to be fun, not taken so seriously that your head explodes from the stress.
