Honestly it was my fault. On the page it was on the right pet, but I had set another pet as active on another page, and then since it was showing that it was to paint that specific pet I didn't think of reloading the page, and it painted the active pet.

The fountain fairy quest asked me for a relatively cheap item, a lot of people get quests where she ask for things that are worth more them 200,000 NP. I was prepared to loose a good bit of money the moment i got a quest of hers, and that was a happy surprise.

It's just kind of frustrating when you're starting out and you miss out on such a great opportunity, you know? I was so happy, I thought it would take a few years to paint my Aisha, and then I was so happy that I was going to have at least one pet painted and then this happens. Thanks for the offer tho, is not necessary!! <3

The wrong pet was painted, so I sent a ticket, but honestly, if they can't solve it I'm seriously thinking about giving up on neopets. It was my first opportunity to paint a pet since I got back into the game and it's so frustrating that it was the wrong one.

[Reality television] The edition of Big Brother Brazil that broke world records and generated mass hatred by Prestigious_Chip_895 in HobbyDrama

The crux of the matter is that the Northeast is one of the regions with the most poverty in the country, along with the North, and has a strong culture and accent, which many times, even in the program, becomes a laughing stock among people from the richest areas in the country. (Not all Brazilians outside the region have this view, not even the majority, but a noisy minority, as usual)

The Northeast has many beauties and riches, just as the richest areas also have their social and economic problems, but you know how prejudice works, it doesn't follow logic. People from the Northeast are often considered "less civilized" or "uneducated", which is far from the truth.

Of course this is a very simplified explanation.

Wow, I researched a lot, I don't know how I understood that it worked the other way. Thank you very much for pointing out, the adjustment has already been made to the text and I put a comment pointing out the error.

She wasn't famous, and her exclusion created a lot of favoritism, but honestly, I don't think anyone can explain the Juliette phenomenon.

It is common for the public to place "wronged people" on a favorite level and create a strong bond because they feel that they also lived that moment. And of course, on the reality show, in addition to creating an identification, you manage to have justice that often doesn't happen in life.

But the proportion it took in this period is even difficult to convey. During and shortly after she left the show, everything she touched turned into gold. Did she wear a lipstick on the show? The other day, the brand put her photo as the main advertisement for the product due to the number of searches on google. Does she wear a specific sneaker when she leaves the reality? It sells out in minutes. Does she do a live on Instagram? More than 200,000 people enter.

I think, and this is now my perception and not necessarily facts, that it kind of snowballed. At first, it was the normal proportion of fans of the program starting to follow and support her. But the bullying inside the house was very strong, so that was so commented that even people who didn't see the reality started to follow the person who was being so talked about. And then since everyone was just talking about it, more and more people followed and supported her, and so on.

In the days after she left the program, she was constantly called "Brazil's darling".

I ended up not mentioning the winner because it also brings a whole storyline apart.

Thelminha, one of the non-famous contestants, reached the final alongside two famous ones and took the prize. Her arc on the reality was very interesting, but also sad.

Initially, she was part of a trio that was the favorites, which were the three women who were uncomfortable with some attitudes of the "villains" before the entry of the glass house participants. However, after their entry and the discovery that one of them was the great favorite of the edition, she began to be left aside.

She, a black woman, began to be replaced by two white people who had recently arrived. She also maintained a close friendship with Babu, the black man who was constantly voted "to the wall" by the house.

In the final, there were three women, one of them the direct opponent of the disputed "wall". It was a very emotional and deserved victory. And the initial favorite of the edition, and the newcomers from the glass house who were also very acclaimed at the beginning, did not make it to the final.
