(Slightly late) Weekly Poll : Would you quit Neopets if...

[TDG]

...Adam and Donna announced they were quitting ??

PS : These polls will no longer be conducted on IDB due to me no longer being a member of those forums. So the results here are the results everywhere...

[xjox]

wow I don't know. I guess it would depend on why they were quitting. If they were quitting just to try something new then I would stay, but if they were quitting because Neo had gone even further downhill then I probably would have already quit!:P

[Katy]

Even if Adam and Donna quit because Neo has gone downhill, I would probably stick around for a little while afterward to see what happens. If Adam and Donna started something new, though, I would definitely want to try that.

[Medusa]

Probably not. If they leave, they leave, either way they'd probably be replaced (job-wise) so nothing to worry about there, as for their "celebrity status" on the site I'm not bothered.

[WIS]

Nope, unless all the asparagus items go away.

[AFI_Sorrow]

It depends. If the site goes really awful after they leave, I would pack my bags and go on the ol' dusty road. If a big business takes them over and makes Microsoft paint brushes and Gap wearing pets, I'd leave.

[Zero!]

I'd probably sneak around to see what would happen afterwards, but yeah, I probably wouldn't be on very often.

[Shifty]

The only thing I could say is that it would be wierd if they weren't around anymore...
I probably keep playing though.

[Kuri]

Wow, I don't know. I'd probably keep playing unless the site really went downhill. Although it would be so odd not to have Adam and Donna there.

[Twizzler0171]

I'd probably stick around for a month or two to see if I still like the site. If it gets to get too bad, yeah, I'll probably go. If not... chances are that I'll stay.

Although Kuri is quite right in it being odd if they did leave... I mean, they are there, but not there, if you get my drift...

[Kitten Medli]

I have a feeling it might go downhill without them around. I'd probably stay for a while, like everyone else, though. If it was still okay, then I'd be fine but I'd still miss them a bit.

[Twisted Sanity]

Like most people here have said, I'll stay around for a little while, maybe a month or two, and see where Neo goes from there. It won't ever be the same, that's for sure. But maybe the new staff will offer up a couple of great ideas.

Even so, no new staff member will feel the same way about the website as the creators can. I mean, an artist can paint a picture, and can love his own work so much that he decides to keep it, or if he sells it, he'll miss it. If the atrwork is stolen or if the artist dies and a new owner is given the paining, the new owner may adore the paining, but not in the same way as the artist. The new owner was not there to watch it grow froma blank canvas to a work of art.

Such is the way of Neopets as well. The new owners would never be able to show as much care for the site as dam and Donna did. If the duo made a new site (hiring staff from PPT of course ), then I'd give that new game a try. I might stay on Neo, I might move onto something different.

[vtothec]

Just depends on what happens to the site really...I would like a microsoft paint brush though

[bdd1]

Microsoft pb = Everyone who wants an evil pb gets their wish.

Like everyone else said, I'd stick around and see how things went. If it stayed or got better, I'd stay, but if it went bad, I'd stop. My other, "Wocky," side agrees with me on this.

[sinikka]

Hmm, it would really depend. You know, on whether or not they decided to sell it to McDonalds or something.

Who knows though, maybe if they sold it the new owners would cut back on some of the advertising? That would be ohsogreat.
