The Neopian Times Editorial Thread

So being in the medical field....what is wrong with pets having medical/anatomy names...?

[Nyanobyte]

Well, another mediocre editorial. Whats new.

Hiya! It seems the new Tonu and Mynci clothes released this week have an est. value of 0, and so they are not restocking can this be fixed?
You are totally right, Donny is on it adding price tags as we speak!

Do comics submitted to the NT have to be humourous one-offs? Or can someone submit a series with a plot, more like a graphic novel style?~~aietradaea
Yes of course we love comic series! The more the merrier!

Hi! It's been a few days since Jhudora Day, but the new items announced haven't been activated! Could you please look into that? Thanks!~~spakefairy
Donny is on it and putting them in stores now.

I bought a Zombie JubJub Morphing Potion. The issue is that it won't work because it hasn't been activated in your end. If you check the rainbow pool it doesn't exist. Can you hit the magic button to work it? One of my pets keep asking me to write this.~~blackdragonwings
Wow, you are completely correct that was a little silly of them to do it that way...guess we will need to create a Jubjub Zombie!

Hi there, I am just wondering if runner-ups for this most recent Random Contest should only expect to hear back when the final prizes have been awarded? Due to the nature of the runner-up tier it leaves a lot of us hanging in suspense. ~~freehanded
Very soon so sorry for the delay you all had some pretty awesome winning entries to getting them all created has taken us some time so we are hoping to get those prizes out to you all very soon.

I heard a rumor that,since flash is dying,ALL flash supported games will be deleted from existence in Neopia. Is it true??~~clovertheperidot
Definitely not, we are currently converting batches of games at a time, it is a long process but we are definitely working on it.

Hi TNT! I would like to see more makeup themed items, is it possible to get a makeup themed mystery capsule? I got a few ideas for it: Makeup Store Background, Handheld Lipstick and a Makeup Table.~~greyfever
Wow, I love makeup too honestly, not sure about a capsule, but that background sounds amazing I will pass that idea onto the team! And we should have some new makeup items coming out within the next month or so.

I noticed that the Deceptive Greeting Card is actually edible, and can be eaten by your pets. Is it supposed to be like that, since it's marked as a gift?~~jdb1984
Well, I guess that's what makes it deceptive right? Eat it or gift it, the choice is up to you...

Hi. The new handheld plushie awarded by voting for every Neopies category on the day of release is adorable! However, it's currently spelled as "Elsworth" Handheld Plushie, when it should be "Ellsworth." Please send to Donny. Thank you!~~_brainchild_
Oops you're totally right, patching that up for ya.

Any new avatars planned for this year?~~brenda_bbm
Yessiree! Keep an eye out

Happy Thoughts
Hi. I'm writing in with happy thoughts because we got so many great Valentine's Day items this year, which look perfect in my side account gallery! The Call Me Sweetheart Gram is beautiful, as are the items within. Even the freebie from the Paper Hearts Goodie Bag is awesome, and goes well with the Cascading Roses. The Valentine Pandaphant is also gorgeous! Keep up the good work!

[TsUNaMy WaVe]

Yeah, just more of the "thanks for helping us keep an eye out for our many mistakes!"
Nothing interesting sadly. Aside from new avatars maybe but eh, I don't count on it

[Nyanobyte]

Next batch of questions answered. Really miss the ones with gutterfoot

Are we allowed to advertise for other users that have pets UFT;UFA? There are a lot of agencies that give this power in the PC boards that seem okay as they link to the owner but the last update on this was from year 15-just want clarity ~~itsthattimeagain
Hi, No you cannot advertise for someone else's pet. Having them in an agency is fine as long as the owner has given consent for their pet to be listed there, if they ask for you to remove their pet from the agency please remove their pet.

When will we be getting our bonus 500 NC from the promotion last fall? ~~gollyga97
The bonus NC was given out in December 2020, if for some reason you did not get yours and you know you did qualify for it, please send in a ticket by going to (you need an account to see links) and we will get that checked into for you.

Hiii! Just wanted to maybe plant a tiny little seed in someone's ear that there are some of us mutant lovers who would really REALLY love some more wearable items for our mutant pets! Specifically markings, contacts and that lovely *hinthint* bone collector mask idea from the most recent Random Contest! *hinthint* Thanks for all you do~~siyniai
We actually have an upcoming Mutant Gram so be on look out!

Carniverous Plant Usuki is spelled wrong; it should be Carnivorous Plant Usuki like the plushie (0:~~forgottenbirthdays
You're right, we sent off to Donny and he said should be fixed in no time.

Will the random contest ever be judged?It has been a month and it hasn't,I really want to enter in the next one.~~clovertheperidot
The contest was actually judged a few months ago and the winners are posted on the past winners page. We didn't grant prizes till this week because we wanted to ensure all items of the first place winners were created and released first. These are officially live and out in the world check em out!

Hello TNT! Spring is right around the corner and there is a certain lovely retired Spring Shop NC wearable that has long been out of reach for many, the Negg Wreath Garland released back in 2015! Is there any chance for us to finally see a return of the lovely garland in this year's Retired Spring Capsule? Thank you!~~morty0807

boring editorial and short to boot huh. i feel like those answers sound kinda snooty lol "we already did this" part of me wonders if theyre using old questions or something too, it wouldnt surprise me if some of these have been sitting

[Flordibel]

I miss the ones with gutterfoot and vandoodle too!! They were so informative!

[Double.Trouble]

Getting real tired of every other week having no NT.

[Nyanobyte]

Getting real tired of every other week having no NT.

YES. I get they are busy, beta redesign blah blah blah, but I don't get how its -so- tough to copy & paste articles/questions from users and fill up an edition.
Like.. they aren't even creating the content, users are. They have used the same code/format since always. Theres no real excuse to need two weeks to create the next edition. Its just plain lazy T.T

I agree on they being lazy but maybe this week NT questions were filled with the whole UC drama and exploit? I don't know lol - The main reason I read the NT is for the questions.

[Zorara]

Wait...
This was the editorial?
