Neopets To Implement Security Questions (finally)

[Buizel]

I'd rather finally learn what the blue and yellow lutari beads were supposed to do.

I forgot all about those beads haha I could never afford them when I was a kid. I thought they all did something like increased random events or something like that? That's what I heard about them back then, at least.

I never could afford them then. Still can't afford them now, haha. Red beads gave you shop discounts and green was np bonuses in games. Blue and yellow were never confirmed, afaik.

Still an absolutely laughable "overhaul" of their support system 🙄 until they come up with some real way to tackle the issue of users legitimately being locked out of their own accounts due to old email services that no longer exist due to time creep, they're still not listening to us or helping their paying players who have gotten screwed over by this bullshit rule. Also where is the "appeals channel" is this a discord thing or what??

@(you need an account to see links) When you file a ticket under account recovery, there are a few options now. One of those options is appeal.

Can you refuse to answer security questions? Genuinely am uncomfortable with N_T and god knows who else seeing that.

Do you guys ever answer security questions with the actual correct answers? I can’t be the only one who utilizes bullshit answers to them so that nobody but me will ever actually be able to guess them lol

Thus isn’t anything monumental though, more like catching up to security measures from in the early 2000s. I guess it’s a step in some kind of positive direction though

I've been meaning to start doing that, but I do worry about remembering I did that. I've run into the issue of remembering anyway because some of them have answers that change over time, so I have to put myself in the spot of when I made the account, or could be answered in multiple ways depending on how vague/specific I was (I've run into this a lot with "Where did..." type questions). I also have gotten a batch of security questions where literally all of them were not applicable to me. I just hope they don't try to get cutesy neopetty with them like "What is the make and model color and species of your first car neopet?".

Wait should I just get rid of mine then? I have several that I just keep because I'm not sure if they're coming out with something lol.

If you need/want the money you definitely could get something for them. You never know when TNT will re-release something and tank the price, haha

Me too. :/ I got locked out of a really embarrassing YouTube account I made when I was 14 because of that.
