If you could ask a staff member at Neopets a question . . .

Sun Mar 27, 2005 2:45 pm

Hi all. :) I'm in a contemplative mood today and I was wondering, if you could had the chance to ask a staff member at Neopets a couple questions, what would you ask?

I don't know if it'd be answered, but I think I'd like to know how much control Adam and Donna still have on the site. I'd also like to know if they are ever going to make Neopets comic books. I <3 comic books. I think posters or wall scrolls would be neat as well. ;)

Hmm, I'd also like to ask if they'd ever consider having another "Make Your Own Neopet Contest" where people draw their own Neopet and send it in and the winner's pet gets created. :)

Lol. I'd ask if Thyassa will ever get a part in a plot. XD

That's all I can think of now (it's a little early ;) ). What would you like to ask? :)

Hmmmm....I can't really think of anything...but...I'd ask if they ever considered making real life chocolate Neopets (chcolate gelerts, etc).
It's a stupid question, but, ah well. :P

What was the inspiration in turning all humans on neopets into neopets? Poor edna fell into her bubbling magical cauldron...WHY?

-.- And another one...How much time do you devote every sunday into making neopets so great on Monday?

Lol. Good question!
Hmm... I would ask...
Did you know the neopets movie is a bad idea?
It is a question, but it's more of a fact. :P

Wouldn't it be nice if they actually came and answered? I had an idea of making a thread for asking them questions, but of course there'd have to be strict rules.

I suppose there's a few I could ask, one being the one just about everyone would ask, the "question that shall not be asked.". For a question that'd actually get a response, I'd like to know where they get their inspiration from. Oh, and I'm thinking of learning how to do flash games, and getting a job as a programmer. First for the money, but mostly for the fame. I'm just wondering: If I do get a job and move there, would it be possible to get an advance on my first paycheck or two so I don't have to starve and sleep in a cardboard box, not to mention get to LA in the first place? Because that's about the only thing stopping me. That and needing to learn Flash and all that stuff.

Oh, and just because I feel like saying stuff staff related ATM, congrats to the person who made all the recent music. I now play Attack of the Slorgs and Hasee Bounce more often just because of the new music :P

I'd want to ask them how the updates work. It's one of my peeves that sometimes business days go by without any new content, or at least without news. It seems like it would be someones job to put the stuff on the site, and maybe someone else's to do it if the main person is on vacation or sick.
I'd also like to ask them what their typical day is like. Maybe ask a programmer, an artist, a concept-person (if they have those), and find out what the process is if say Adam dreams of an Asparagus toothpaste game-- how it goes from a weird dream brough on by indigestion, to being an actual fully functioning game on the site.
I'd also be curious to know if it's a fun place to work, and what kind of gossip goes around the office :P

I'd also like to ask if they have thought about making an Oriental themed world. :) They have Island, Prehistoric, Snow, Desert, two Space, two Medieval, Spooky, Faerie, Pirate, Jelly, and Water. I think an Oriental world would be very neat. :)

I'd ask Adam: why are you so darn sexy?

I'd ask Donna if she has the urge to jump on Adam when they're working together in the Neopets office. And I mean jump on him in a certain way ;)

I'd ask Felicia (Snowflake) if she ever got bored sifting through all those submissions to the Neopian Times.

Right now I would say.

PLEASE BRING NEOSCHOOLS! Not even a question lol.

You just gave me a very bad mental image >.<

I think I would ask them to describe any encounters with rabid fans that were particularly memorable.

I've been praying for an Oriental World ever since I joined Neopets. :D

I suppose I'd ask them if they regret anything about Neopets, and where do they see each other and the site in ten years.

They did that. It's result was the Shoyru.

My question would be "When did you realise the site was starting to go downhill", though I agree that a brilliant question would be how much control.

I remember suggesting to them to make an Oriental world about 3 years ago. I got all hyped up about it too. For some reason, I kept imagining the Wocky in Chrome's avatar being a shopkeeper or something.

They've certainly got plenty of Oriental items (like sushi, and all those Zen items), so it could pull off, I think. :)
