Errr... Is this a new thing?

Sat Feb 12, 2005 9:53 pm

I've been planning to "move" into another account for a while and I decided to do it today. I created a Bori and went to check out her "lookup". Here's what it looked like:

Note that I hadn't even gone to the description page.
Is it new that they automatically create a (very unaccurate) text there, or am I just not up to date? :-P

"I'm a blue aisha..." Aww, poor thing. :3

I think it does that if you create a pet with a name that was previously used years ago then got deleted due to inactivity or whatever. o.o So there used to be a blue Aisha named that with that description I guess.

This is something along the lines of what I was going to say, most likely a glitch when people make a pet with the name of an old pet that got deleted when Neo cleared their database not long ago.

Weird. I wonder though, if Neopets actually cleaned out their databases with information of pets and usernames that they have ALREADY deleted, how much faster the site could be? Oh well. -__-

that's similar to what happened to me - my first account on neo, wayyyy way back when they were new was "willow925". i went to sign on it again a while back and it was gone, so i recreated the account. even though it was "new" i had all my neofriends already added from five years ago!

lol! Thats awsome! XD

personally, I'd be scared if I created an acount, and it already had been modifyed by the previose user. O_o

Yep, same thing happened to me. The description was really weird - it said "Happy to be alive is the best way to describe this Grundo!"

How odd :P

*snickers* That's crazy.

Guess that's never happened to me. Hmmm, I wonder what people would think if I got frozen and they got all of my descriptions? Though I hope that will never happen.

I recreated my friends account who was deleted since he stopped playing and everything was like new except there was a Neofriend request from long ago. I wish I could remember his pet's name so I could recreate that too...

Notice how it says dressing up is girly when it's a female faerie :P

When you go to my oldest pets petpage (which was deleted, and someone re-registered the name of the pet) it says all the stuff I wrote, it even has my old email address... I wish I could get rid of it x.X
