    They've been spamming the Facebook page with this too, think they're trying to make an easy Buck. Surely there's a way to monitor shit like this going through Gofundme?

    I second the "definitely a scam" notion. I'd be willing to bet the dude/chick pockets the money after JS refuses.

    It's actually not a scam. The person who created the gofundme actually plays neo and owns a small business called "Better Businesses, LLC" and they seem to be pretty passionate about Neopets.

    Only reason I know this is because I used to work with them and they programmed a lot of stuff for me. Lol

    Sorry, it's a scam. You can't buy a business when the owners aren't willing to sell. Regardless of what they own, they're not very intelligent because Neo is worth much much more than $50,000.

    I'm sure they make more than that in a month and run on way less. The profit is huge. JS doesn't care about running the site because they're sitting on a goldmine of ad and NC money.

    It's pretty sad because I'm sure there are longtime players who hang on to neopets bc of nostalgia who would love to contribute to the site.

    Exactly, I don't understand how people think this is in any way legitimate with that evaluation.

    But yeah, I certainly stick around for he nostalgia and I know others do too. The game hasn't changed in 8 years or so it seems, which is quite sad.
    PM me to see what I have up for sale! Always selling UCs/NP/Accounts!
    Offering free PIN cracks to Clraik rank (and higher!), just shoot me a PM.
