    why dont they just make it to where you can buy neopoints, like we do here? i mean its the same as buying the items, only better, but im no longer into neo enough to where id buy neopoints anymore, much less a crappy $50 pixel flag, basically if your super rich and super bored is the new mall a good idea, but how many people actually have money to toss and s --- like that? if they just made it to where you can buy nps instead of items, it would actually be a pretty cool idea

    NC mall is a pretty lame idea. I do not support it because it is a waste to spend real money for virtual items. Grant it, it does help make money for the site, but i personally believe that about 25% is going to the site and the other 75% is probably going to the viacom owners. Maybe a higher or less percentage

    What gets me is that you pay money for something that expires after a set amount of time... I mean that's a bit of a ripoff. I would maybe pay if you could keep your item forevaaaa but it doesn't seem worth it otherwise

    you don't have to buy clothes with real money you do get clothes from when you change your pet to a color like royal or something but other than that you do need to buy them with real money other thant that

    It might have been ok if you could keep the items but you cant...they disappear. Neopets just wants to make money now.

    I have been against the NC Mall since it was first talked about and stuff. I hate it, and I find that it's ridiculous to have to pay real money for something that is going to disappear in about 3months if that. Neo has stooped quite low in trying to earn money for the owners now. I think that they have enough going on just by its merchandise, and don't need this whole premium and mall things. Or the mobile thing, heh. Neo was so much better back in the beginning, when adam and donna owned it. Viacom is just, well.. :X:

    Bleh, I'm no fan of the NC mall either. I miss the neopets that didn't have like 3 ads all over the place. Like Xace said, it was so much better in the beginning. It just feels like neo is trying everything they can to make the site a cash cow.
