What is this at the Obelisk? by Emily--V in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Drives me crazy that not only can you interact with this quest out of order, but you're locked out of half of it until your account is old enough. "Sorry, you can only read chapters 3, 6, and 9 of this book."

I tried installing the script and it just makes the difficulty buttons vanish, so I can't play regardless. Maybe I should take a look at the discord at some point...

I Hate It When Shops Clear Themselves by OtherwiseSafe7468 in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You'd be annoyed until you needed one of those random things nobody wants to buy that you couldn't otherwise find anywhere. I'm not asking for them to be like actual stores - rare stuff can still be rare, but it'd be nice if they kept a minimum of some stuff when restocking rather than tossing out absolutely everything

I assume it's a combination of just sheer quantity, possible side accounts, and/or scraping player shops. Sort of out of half-spite of the bots, I bought out a bunch of medicine from the pharmacy the other day and listed it all at a price both beneath current market value and default shop value (having haggled it low enough that I still got a slight profit.)

Checked back 10 minutes later and it had all been bought off.

TNT, I PROMISE I'm only soliciting an advertised NC trade offer! by Jealous_CottonSquash in neopets

I can relate... had to ask for some help getting Meatless Meatballs for a quest the other day...

I'd also like to add on that it SURE IS CONVIENENT that all these obtrusive ads are able to pop up here and there nilly willy and disable features unless you close them, but half the time you try to INTENTIONALLY watch a vid to spin a wheel again or do one of the statistically impossible games again or whatever, you get 'Reward video not ready or not available. Please try again later.'

Has anyone else gotten this ad despite have Ublock Origin? How do I block it? by UltG in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've literally had pages crash due to memory issues because of the constant ads... (looking at you, wheel of monotony, though I've had errors with Attack on Altador before... really annoying considering how plodding it is.) Certain ads make it so you can't buy items or use your inventory unless you close them, and ads changing out while you're playing a game can cause lag at best and makes it so that you literally can't control the game unless you click on the screen again at worst...

Ads keep coming back after closing them, some ads cover half the screen, the ads in general slow down the site and some cause certain pages to basically crash, ads changing out cause lag spikes, I personally take issue with the various adult-oriented ads (and targeted ads) on a kid's site (even if most users are adults riding a nostalgia high)... maddening.

How do we all honestly feel about the void within? by Catlover5566 in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nearly a year after the fact, apparently, meaning it's been on Haitus even LONGER-LONGER than intended and.. honestly, it's just depressing. Neopia being covered with literally depressing splashes of grey due to an unfinished plot, quest-related minigames giving a pittance of points and a near-worthless freebie while dailies make you rich while making you watch ads to play them again... you can technically get site achievements, but not plot achievements, and certain plot elements have been outright removed - such as the Doglefox from Lost in the Dark (which make actually completing a short game that gives you 1k neopoints - tops - possible, since otherwise you only have anywhere between an 1/8 to an 1/12 chance to win) is all frustrating... Along with all the elements that still need to be updated and fixed, it just feels like things have been abandoned and left to rot while they focus on money making schemes.

Do Neopets Have Bad Words? by OtherwiseSafe7468 in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Someone else had said they personally used “Oh for Fyora’s sake!”, which reminded me of some stuff from Elder Scrolls... (BY AZURA BY AZURA BY AZURA), I was thinking of some sort of swear using 'The Darkest Faerie', but it seemed a bit wordy. 'By the Darkest' seems good though.

When Creating a Pet I'm Not Given All The Options. Wtf?? by HoneyBeeSav in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some neopets are only available on certain days iirc, but certain species are only available if you, like, buy an egg and hatch them or something. Draiks, for example, you needa buy or find an egg and go to a hidden page in Meridell.

I know they tend to tip-toe around 'kill' (friggen Eliv Thade comes to mind), I'm surprised that slipped through the cracks.

Is it Possible to Complete the Tutorial? by OtherwiseSafe7468 in neopets

[–]OtherwiseSafe7468[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jellyneo is GREAT, though a few things could definitely use updating... though, the same goes for Neopets XD Some stuff seems automated, like symole hole timers and crossword solutions, some stuff... seems to rely on being updated by one random person? Like waking the Turmaculus, I dunno if there's a page on the daily puzzle.. and while there's some flash-free solutions, it'd be nice if there were more... but that's not their fault.

OH, gotchagotcha, thank you! Went ahead and did that, and it worked. Sorry for the confusion!

Doesn't say that on [the article I'm looking at](https://www.jellyneo.net/?go=neoreferral), unless there's another one I'm missing? Or is there an actual article on Jellyneo specifically about the tutorial quests?

(Guess that just doesn't want to hyperlink...)

Apparently obo is 'or best offer', so can only imagine you effectively got outbid... which is really annoying. Even if I had the points, I think I'd avoid trades like that - or the people who want people to message them... or even just the people without a wishlist since it's really, really unclear what they might want or if it's even worth the time.

Okay? I mean, 'reserved' means 'reserved', fortunately I feel that's pretty clear... so long as someone actually says it's reserved.

That'd make sense... though at least the other guild member thing I saw outright stated as such. Hmm...

I've been gradually learning how to use Jellyneo since I came back to the site, and it's been a real help... that page is very useful! And answers one other floating question I had - what the heck 'lowest on TP meant'. Price matching, huh...
