From TNT Themselves

Hello, TNT. I have a short question about trading Neopets. My younger sister had set up a trade (orange Koi for ghost Lupe) and, after she successfully adopted the Koi, she put the ghost Lupe up for adoption. Afterwards, she noticed that it was still there, and that the other person's account was only 2 months old (therefore, she was unable to adopt the Neopet). Since the Koi was painted, my sister couldn't send back the Koi. My sister now feels guilty because she can't send the Neopet back, nor send the Lupe. Can she get reported for not sending it back? Should she wait until the account ages? Thanks.
Egads! Well, there's a disaster of a situation. :-/ Both parties should always check to make sure that the other person is eligible for the transfer, but for this case we'd have to say the younger account is at fault. We've requested that the following warning, which is on the abandon page, be placed on the transfer page as well: "Neopets that are higher than Level 2, Neopets that are limited-edition species, and Neopets that have been painted with certain rare or expensive paint brushes CANNOT be adopted from accounts that have been active for less than four months." Hopefully that will reduce the chances of something like this happening again. It'd be very sweet of your sister to hold on to the Lupe (if she still has it) until the account is old enough to accept the transfer, but your sister should not be reported as there is really nothing she can do.

A pet is not just for Christmas or any other time of the year... a pet is for life! Let's keep it that way!


Hello TNT, I have another Pound question. Let's say you're transferring a Neopet to someone... except you used up your transfer for this month. The person still transfers the Neopet to you, and then says that he's willing to catch the Neopet from the Pound. If you say, "Remember, if you lose the Neopet from the catch, it's YOUR FAULT since you didn't want to wait until the next month and I don't owe you anything," do you still owe that person a Neopet? Thanks!
This is an expected risk when using the Pound to move Neopets. Unless there was some sort of foul play involved, you are not responsible for compensating that person. Foul play would include anything dishonest, or purposely attempting to lose the Neopet or block it from getting it to its owner.

Hey TNT! In last week's Editorial you said that extreme Petpage applications are no longer allowed. At one point you said, "What we mean by extreme includes requests for Petpages to be made for the Neopet as part of the application." Does this mean Petpage apps are no longer allowed, or that you're not allowed to ask for people to make your Neopet a Petpage? I'm asking because I thought the latter, while my friend though it was the former. Can you please say which of us is right?
No one may require/request/hint that an extreme Petpage application is required. If, for whatever reason, you really love making Petpages for Neopets other than your own, then well, more power to you. However, we suggest giving the attention to your own Neopets rather than using it in hopes of getting another one. We really love to see people cherish their Neopets and enjoy them as if they were real, which is why it breaks our heart to see them often treated like pixels, but sadly we can't force people to care about their Neopets. :(

Neopets represented as nonsentient beings. Every Neopet is a person, not just a pack animal - yes, even the Uni. ;)


Why can't accounts that are less than 4 months old transfer or adopt limited edition (or most painted) Neopets? I'm a responsible owner.
We're sure you are. :) However, the system was abused by players making brand new accounts and adopting all the nice Neopets out of the Pound and sticking them in side accounts made just to gather fancy Neopets for some unknown reason. This rule is to help protect Neopets and give active accounts a better chance of getting a nice Neopet.

Okay, so this has been running through my mind for quite some time now. I've noticed a lot of people trading their Draiks / Krawks, or expensively painted Neopets for basic "glitched" Neopets (Neopets with no eyes, etc.). Why they feel the need to have a glitched Neopet is beyond me. Now, this is all fine and dandy, sure. Trade with whatever Neopet you want, but... won't you guys, oh wondrous TNT, eventually "fix" those aforementioned glitched Neopets?
Yeeeeah... we think the players trading for glitched Neopets might have stumbled into a game of Staff Basher and gotten knocked over the head a few too many times, but hey... it's their choice. Just realise, guys, that these glitches could be fixed at any moment, so don't come QQing to us if you traded your Draik for a green Quiggle!

Hey, I was recently lent a Meowclops for the avatar. It was on a Neopet, via The Pound. The person didn't check how many Neopets I had, whether I had the correct amount of Neopoints, etc. So there I was, waiting in The Pound, having forgotten that I had four Neopets and not knowing I was 2,000 NP too low to adopt the Neopet. I only remembered seconds before, when I had no time to do anything but hope and try. I pounded a Neopet (something I now sincerely regret, since it's been adopted by a German so we can't communicate), and took 2,000 NP out of the bank, by which time somebody else had adopted it. The person wouldn't give the Neopet back, saying that the rules wouldn't let them. Since then, I have been slightly harassed by the original owner. Am I the one to blame? Please don't show my username. Thank you! *throws basket of cookies*


Egads, what a disaster! It seems both of you were simply careless: not using the transfer option instead of The Pound and not thinking ahead to the cost of the Neopet. The person that received the Neopet in The Pound is under no obligation to return the Neopet or Petpet unless they want to. Unless there was foul play going on, it seems like it was an accident and that no one is really to blame, though it's sad that the lender is out a Meowclops. :( Both of you, please be more careful in the future.

Sample Adoption Application

Please make sure you read both the application and the notes below it.

  1. User name:
  2. Is this the name of the user receiving the pet? If not what is it?
  3. What is the name of the pet you are applying for?*
  4. How old is your account?
  5. How many pets do you currently have (including sides)?
  6. How often do you play Neopets?
  7. Why do you want this pet?
  8. Any more information you feel I should know
  1. Are you aware that you will have an adoption fee?
    This is very easy to figure out here is the formula:
    level *(Strength + Defense + Movement + 60) = Cost of adopt your dream pet
  2. Are you aware that if you do not claim your pet in three days he/she will be returned to me?
  3. Are you aware that if you are under 4 month old account you have restrictions? +
  4. Would you consider adopting another pet from RANA?
  5. Would like to receive a Neomail on certain Limited addition and/or painted pet? **
  6. Are you aware that zapped Petpets cannot be painted?
All I need answered are questions 1 - 8, 9 - 15 are just there if you want more info/just to make sure you know about fees and such. Also long as you have this info you NM you will be fine! :)
* -- Please submit a app for each pet, not one for all
** -- I will not zap for you. I will let you know when one is available.
+ -- Read Pound FAQ for more info
