    I was thinking today what I should do about what to do about a pet, the one I have right now is like...rubbish xD.
    I was going to start training it but the price of codestones, dubloons, neggs & lab racks up.
    So should I try pound sniping or just go ahead and splash out some? I'm making a decent amount anyway thanks to the IglooAB.

    Thing about pound is I might get some awsome pet with some reaaaaallly ugly name =\.

    once you make 125 posts u will be level 1 on this forum... then you will have access to the Black Market... then maybe u can buy a pet from one of the other memebers...
    but i dont think the pound is open yet so u mite have to wait...

    Bunnah is right. I'd say the biggest problem you're going to have with pound sniping or buying from the forums is the fact that the pound is closed. If you want a fancy pet right now, prepare to save up for either codestones or the lab ray.

    You could always neglect that one and make a new one and when the pound does open, drop it off..

    Why dont you just save up for a pet lik everyone else!...its not that hard...i earned a draik in two weeks people!..and this was legit! And i never look in the pound for a special pet because the chances of finding a pet that is limeted edition is EXTEMELY low because most times it is just bieng transferd on these forums or simular ones.

    Man, don't flip out on him.
    Some of us just aren't good at saving neopoints like you.
    There is nothing wrong with getting a pet from the pound.

    Wow. I'm going to have to agree to a certain extent with Brandon. "Flipping out" was pretty uncalled for, however, Pound Sitters can be both annoying and upsetting. I mean, to have a pet you worked for (or purchased) be sniped by someone who does nothing but sits there all day refreshing... it sucks. Plain and simple.

    However, not everyone is capable of earning tons of Neopoints in a short amount of time. ¬¬

    Never thought of that Jenna!
    It is alright if the pet isn't wanted, but if you get a awesome pet that wasn't meant to be adopted by you, and you don't return it that is rude, and extremely annoying.

    I HATE it when people just brows in the pound for hours...the reason because is that your pets are supposed to show the accomplishments that YOU have made and not someone elses who saved up for weeks just to have thier account hacked and you to have adopted thier stolen pets! so i hate it because people are just basically freeloading the pound hoping to steal someone elses accomplishments...i think that tnt should take all of the painted or limeted edition pets and change them back to a basic pet.

    It would be a extreme accomplishment for me to get a good pet from the pound. Just don't flip out on pound surfers unless they steal pets from transfer.
    Seriously, pound-surfing is a art of its own.

    "Art" did you say "Art" it is in no way art it is freeloading because people are to lazy to get off thier ass and get thier own paintbrush!

    No, it is definately art.
    Seriously, don't criticize pound-surfers when they are doing NOTHING wrong. They are getting what is now rightfully theres.

    That is seriously your choice.
    I don't really care what you do to your pet, because chances are I will never know the name, nor will I own that pet.

    Why the heck does it matter so much to you if someone has your pet if YOU don't want it? Are you afraid people are gonna go 'oh yeah i totally bought this'?
    Why does it matter SOOOO much? [...]

    Well, if your one of those people who, for some reason, care about your pet's name (like me ;) ) than I suggest you just splash out some np snd invest in raising our oets stats. Leave the awsome, ugly-named pets to the people who aren't fortunate enough to have realized about the Igloo Autobuyer :p
