Komokom has it right. Adspamming any link to an online game where you get bonuses by people clicking your link are not welcome in the Nationstates forums. We first had this problem with a game called Outwar awhile ago. You can talk about Neopets all you like, but those kinds of links are a no-no.

Yeah, and they have staff monitor the boards 24/7, so I don't think there have been any problems.

I've been to that site way before it got raped and double-raped by advertising and online merchandising. It used to be so cool...then it just screwed itself over.

Thegr8, thanks for making yet another example of n00bishness to make people dislike Neo.

And most of these people are 14/15.
Actually most of the active people are in their late teens. The game was created for college students, not kids, after all.

The content is monitored very closely, by the way. If anyone makes "dating" boards, the board is usually deleted within 5 to 10 minutes.

the game seems more like POKE'Mon... you raise your pet and teach it to fight. you can fight each other or go on "adventuers" I just like the casinos and the bidding for stuff.

What "adventures"? What casinos? They have a few gambling games but no casinos...

It's not anything like neopets. Neopets continuously forced me to sign up for everything to get "cool, free stuff"

Besides, these banners are off to the side. And Jolt does not force me to go to these sites to be with the "in" crowd.

Never did those... don't know if they're still there... I wonder...

You guys wanna see a really ****ed up site with people flaming at you every second that's supposed to be a more "mature" neopets?

Try http://www.gaiaonline.com

It's like neopets, only replace the dumbass pre-teens with miserable, quick-tempered teens.

There are places you can go, like the space station, but I have no idea where you are getting the "adventures" deal from, and I've been on the site for a little over three years.

Neopets does not force anybody to sign up for anything. You can sign up for stuff if you want, but the prize is never any better than a few np. oO On a very rare occasion (twice while I've been there), they have given something good away for signing up with a sponsor.

Are you saying that you wouldn't be compelled to sign up for free $5 when your pounded with neo-propaganda every week?

Face it, this is neopets-propaganda! They TELL you, you'll get 500np if you sign up for their 5 offers. Then another week you'll get 300 for another 3...and so on. And they're getting a couple cents for each and every offer you sign up for. The money grows and grows as your forced and forced.

You feel like you have a choice. But you don't. You really don't.

I have signed up with ONE sponsor the entire time I have played there. Most of my friends would say the same. Unless you are extremely new to the site then the sponsor stuff is not even a temptation. 500 np is nothing, and almost everyone on Neopets know that. I'm not seeing anyone being forced to do anything.

What spamming? They mention the sponsor ads Colodia is making a direct reference to in all of three places. All three are out of the way, by the way.
