Happy birthday, Neopets!

[Erik.]

Always nice to grab some free NC! Going to hoard it until the start the Gift of NC event and try to get a little extra. Thank you for the heads up!

(you need an account to see links) and training at (you need an account to see links) are also free today ^-^

I still don't get why Ninja Academy isn't. It's not as if people can massively abuse it since training takes 16 hours or so...

Would be super cool if pet slots released on Neo's birthday but more than likely not lol ;-;

Happy birthday neo~

Oooh love the NC - I wonder if the fact that it's automatic for all accounts that log in is to help offset pet slots, since they're untradeable? Maybe a hint that one slot is 500NC...?

Also it has me wondering whether it's kosher to claim the NC gift bag on sides - is NC exempt from the no side profit rule?

You can claim this gift bag on your sides! I think as long as they only contain NC items youre good to go ^-^

RIGHT?! It makes no sense why it can't be all training schools today T.T
Like you said, courses are insanely long, its not like its that big of a deal to let us have 1 stat point :p

I've always collected goodie bags on my sides. As long as they don't award any NP items, you should be good.

Double checked on JN for good measure:

I was also hoping for pet slots to be available for Neo's Bday, or even a word on UC's xD Ah well, happy to receive the free gifts

[DarkSkies]

Still crossing fingers about pet slots releasing later today? One can dream xD

[kittyray]

I wonder if there will be anything else to celebrate. Also hoping for pet slots, but don't want to get them up too high!

I honesrly think slots will come out riiiiiiight before Christmas. Like on the 24th. And it will probably still be buggy cause I suspect TNT is massively lacking in developers and time.

Happened to find this Reddit post with a list of the things offered today for Neopets 22nd Birthday, posted link so credit is given where credit is due. Enjoy!

Yeah when they said they were planning to launch the release "for the holidays" the optimistic half of me was like "sometimes for Americans that means Thanksgiving right" but the side that's seen TNT do literally anything is pretty sure it means late December
