Wow that's insane. :O I'm assuming we're not allowed to have multiple shops now? Suzie: But back then earning money was a lot harder too. Prices weren't so inflated as they are now, I believe. Petpet Paradise http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mizleah

Probably downgrading hardware. Removing users is easy and dont need to take down the entire site.

Sounds like it'll be down most of tomorrow, though I'm not sure, --- "Opportunity is missed by most because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." -Thomas Edison

Petpet Paradise http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mizleah[/quote] ******************************************************** Well that makes more sense, I just wondered if they brought prices down a bit, if our attendance of the lesser involved Neopians would possibly pick up (similar to running eight games a day in April). *clap* They could run a month of shopping and have the prices of the shop & Gallery upgrades be half or something. (That would make me smile) :D Maybe draw those that have not been playing back via word of mouth to their friends and familes that may be off playing other net games. I also think it would help intensely if they continued or reinstated, should I say to support the following countries... From Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neopets "To date, since August 2003, the site has been translated into ten other written languages: Japanese, Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Spanish, German, Italian, Korean, Portuguese, Dutch and French.[15] However, Neopets announced on 1 January 2009 that the Italian, Japanese, and Korean areas of the site would no longer be updated." Maybe if they re-instituted this there would be more players as it seems in time since this posted to Wikipedia that the percentage of users has become next to nothing. Oh well! What are you going to do? *unsure* Oh I have a great idea!!! *clap* I think neo should continue to shut down the site on the weekend to do maintenance *lol* This seems like a grand idea also. Lets continue to do this while we are shuffling multiple activities to draw members in and then when they are really into it schedule a unannounced and then another announced site shut down right in the middle of when there are people actively playing due to time zones and whatnot. I play frequently at night and into the wee hours of our mornings, so do most of my mall members and friends they are all in a different time zone then I. I think the site from my eyes is pretty active when they are shutting down, *cry* although I am sure it is not the sensational numbers they get at 2 in the afternoon but consistent. *complain* I was in the middle of working with the Tarla siting off and on today. We were getting really excitedly active with this and then it started getting close to the site shutdown. The site was swamped with Tarla lookers at the time that it actually shut down. I watched as members began to leave starting at about 7:30 PM NST. *angry* What can you say there must be some really awesome brain storming sessions where they are coming up with these Grand ideas. IE: Starting major draw activities (eight gameplay’s in April & Tarla hide and go Seek) then shut down the site right in the middle of this. :P Hell lets do this multiple times during the weekends when the highest level of adults are Rsing and trying to pretend that there is no work in the morning. :P :o Hmph! *cough* *complain* *angry* Ok I will stop my whining now it is just a big binch of *dung* , as I know you each understand where I am coming from. *oui* Hugs Suz --------------------- Best Priced Malls Toys, Plushies, Usuki's, Paintbrush's, Job Coupons, & Morphing Potions http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=suzierainbow
