Wasting 4 mil on silly ads.

Submitted by angel_shortcake on Sun, 12/04/2009 - 8:28pm
Does it bug anyone else that people will spend 4 mil nps on a pointless 4 mil ad? There's someone there that posted 5 in a row saying each word of "I have too many Neopoints" as a different ad. That is valuable space! And I really hope that it someone's real ad doesn't end up under them on peak day, though they shouldn't if they posted at midnight NST. But still... GRR! I seriously waste about 5 valuable seconds a day reading that :P

[quote=mcateer]How often does tnt remove these frozen shops?[/quote] Sadly, not very often. TNT is really slack with the marketplace.

tnt will probably never remove the frozen shops. If they do, the malls with larger shops are going to get screwed big time and end up at the bottom of the previous hut forever and since err.. i think i'll keep my mouth shut just in case 0:-)

If he was going to do that, he should have at least asked a mall if they wanted their banner in his post ^^

[quote=nightmares_moon]If he was going to do that, he should have at least asked a mall if they wanted their banner in his post ^^[/quote] But I think that would ruin the point he was trying to make. In that he has enough nps to just randomly waste them all on whatever he wishes and I bet he was trying to disrupt a lot of the malls. It happens often enough. People save up 4 million then post something about how you shouldn't buy at a mall or just something completely random in general. I think it would be a great way to advertise say a beauty contest :D

I think I read somewhere that you're not allowed to use the notice board to advertise a beauty contest, but I'm not sure. I agree that I'm both jealous and stunned by the stupidity of it. If someone is using np like that, my guess would be that they're also cheating. I once visited one of those cheat program sites just out of curiosity and read the boards, and it sounded like there are a lot of people on Neopets making millions a day through automated cheat programs. I would be scared to death to ever try one, but the boards on those sites make it sound commonplace and they don't seem to get caught. Anyway, if someone were making 20 million a day through cheat programs, why would they care how they wasted it? I can't think of anyone else who would post a notice like that. :o ~ Love books?

I saw some sites where you could buy neopoints with real money, probably a scam though.
