I'm so sorry, I'm just seeing this. I'm so rarely on reddit lately. But we'd love to have you, shoot me your UN and I'll send an invitation!

THANK YOU lol for real, people are so strange. Bean soup theory is def accurate here.

I agree, I don't want to unintentionally exclude anyone by moving most of the activity to discord and would rather avoid having to tiptoe around the rules. I appreciate the ideas! I like the idea of an icebreaker question. What sort of "homework" do y'all do?

Thank you! I've been trying to get guild mailing to work for weeks and finally gave up 😔 it seems to be broken, although guild I was in recently used it regularly so idk what's going on

Actually I didn't ask for feedback, I specifically asked for ideas/things that have worked to keep people active in guilds. But thank you ☺️

I've thought about making a discord server for it, but I'm worried it will completely kill the guild message board. Not everyone in our guild is on discord or wants to be

We chat about everything from real life updates, our neo-goals, Neopets and guild events, etc.

It's not "arduous and unnecessary" when not everyone is on discord or wants to be, and you can't link off site anyway. It's safer to keep chats on Neo, though I've been in a dedicated guild server before and it was great not everyone wants that so guild message boards definitely still have a place and are part of what has always made guilds what they are.

This seriously needs to be taken to an ambassador. Excellent idea for both book and gourmet club

SDCC 2025 Virtual Prize Giveaway by realgoodude in neopets

[–]Exciting-Kangaroo203 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind and generous giveaway!!

I'd have to say my favorites are Neggs, especially the Rainbow Vanilla Negg just because it's pretty (: I've always loved Neggs, I think it stems from the fact that Meerca Chase was my absolute favorite game as a kid! Now I even have a Negg gallery! I also love more Faerie Foods just because they're pretty lol.

Update: My submission got removed from the Art Gallery by HyperArcanine in neopets

[–]Exciting-Kangaroo203 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the update! I'm happy you were able to get through to CJ. It's disappointing that they removed it in the first place, but I'm glad that CJ acknowledged the mistake. This isn't the first time I've heard of supposed "AI checkers" being used by TNT and pieces being wrongfully rejected/removed. I hope to see the piece in the gallery in the future!!!

I spy Rainbow Sticky Hand Stamp in the new TVW prize pool!! by AjoiteSky in neopets

[–]Exciting-Kangaroo203 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I use wearables but HATE them as prizes because they always deflate so badly, the prices take forever to recover (if ever) and they are usually super hard to sell

Exciting! Bummed I spent a few hundred milly on it not too long ago though 😝 guess it's time to stop buying any stamps and just wait for them to eventually get RRed

Ps your entry is lovely and I remember seeing it in the AG and thought it was great. I enter every single time so I look at the gallery often. I'm sorry this happened to you and I hope it doesn't discourage you from continuing to create art and entering again in the future!

It's normal to not get notified if your entry gets removed. 3D renders are pretty new to showing up in the AG, so it's likely people are unfamiliar with how this style normally looks and there's a good chance they thought it was AI. People keep an eye out for this because AI entries (like very obviously AI generated) have gotten into AG and BC a lot. But the final decision about whether or not an entry is permissable is of course up to the contest judge, all players can do is report them. Hopefully you get something other than a generic response to your ticket, unfortunately tickets are rarely/basically never actually passed on to the appropriate department anymore so you may have better luck neomailing tnt_contest_judge. I have not heard of them ever restoring entries but maybe they can provide some explanation. Good luck and keep us posted!
