The Stock Market crashed a long time ago and it was horrifying. My memory isn't too sharp but it must have been 6 1/2 - 7 years since it happened.
If I recall correctly it was fairly late in the evening. I just happened to check my stocks, panicked when I saw that the prices were falling rapidly ... |

The problem with the Wikipedia is that anyone can say anything, true or not. Maybe I missed it but it appears that the Neopets reference has been deleted from the Wiki's Whac-a-Mole listing.
Edited to add: Oops! I didn't realize that the game names had been changed. |

:) Last night, thanks to the encouragement of a guildmate, I finally had the courage to put the most expensive piece of the lab map up for sale in the Trading Post. First offer: total junk, which I figured would be the norm. Second offer: 345K. Sold!
:) Thirty minutes ago: Something has happened ... |

I've seen this discussed before and apparently it's not the word "dumb" by itself. "Dumb as" is what gets censored. The filter doesn't recognize the space between the words and thinks it's a creative spelling of a particular 7 letter word.  |

Something Has Happened!
You are now eligible to use 'Fishing - Titanic Squid' as an avatar on the NeoBoards!
Yessssss.  Must be a good week for fishing. I got the same thing today and was so not expecting it that I wondered why there was an avatar notice at the top of the page. |

I got the first place trophy, avatar and site theme. And 13 points. Yippee.
After turning in the points for an exciting keyring, I decided to check and see if I'd claimed prizes from past plots. Yikes! There were 20300 points left from the LDP. The LDP keyrings cost 1000 points each and are selling ... |

A week ago I decided that hoarding everything was pointless. I've been going through my Safe Deposit Box and selling hundreds of items in my shop.
This evening my shop sales total for the week went over 500,000 nps. |

| I had a glitch-duped unbuyable item in my inventory for over three months. When the glitch happened I panicked and immediately submitted a bug report. No reply from TNT. No warning. Nothing. It just sat there. I finally discarded the thing two weeks ago. |

| To clarify the speculation: The Viacom entity called Neopets would be renamed Neostudios. Neopets, the website, would still exist and be one of several virtual world sites produced by Neostudios. |

| PoE, I think you're right. TNT is an experienced group of people who are really good at what they do. It would make sense for the higher-ups to use that pool of talent to develop new projects. How will the use of staff to do other things impact Neopets? I think we've already seen it to some degree ... |

From the Viacom website:
"NeoStudios: Neopets (http://www.neopets.com) will be transformed into Neostudios, which will focus on developing new virtual world gaming experiences online, while continuing to grow and evolve the existing ones. The first of these will launch at the end of 2008 with a ... |

| I didn't see anything that really appealed to me and the expiration of items and neocash makes everything even less desireable. Why in the world do they only accept PayPal?? I'd rather shove hot coals up my nose than be forced to sign up for PayPal. They've ruined pets with redraws and neglected the ... |

Looks like it's a games update. One of my daily sponsor games has been taken down and several of the other games I play daily have had their NP ratios adjusted one way or the other. I don't think it was like that yesterday.
I noticed the updated game score/neopoint ratio yesterday, well before ... |

The optimistic comments have given me a more positive outlook on there being a Plot part 2. :)
While looking at PPT's General Chat, I re-read the "Neopets On Nickelodeon" thread about Neo mini-cartoons starting June 23 on Nick. (Three days from now!) One sentence from the Forbes article quoted in ... |

There seems to be a standard amount of time when people will complain vehemently about unpopular site ... |
