[Report Message] You have received an official warning from the Neopets Team for violating the Neopets Terms and Conditions.Neopets IS NOT a dating agency or advice service for you OR your pet!

If you continue to break the rules, your account will be permanently frozen. To see a list of Neo Rules, please visit http://www.neopets.com/chatrules.phtml. Please do not reply to this NeoMessage.

So... I'm thinking why this time?? Could it be this pic?

On my lupes page? My friend drew it. As a joke, but it says nothing of them "dating". We just thought it was cute. X_x

If this is how it's going to be. And I'm going to have to watch anything I say like even before I remember some lass saying are we taking the mic of southern amercian accents. So I said no I'm in love with Jodie fosters accent. Could that be it??

Makes me wonder. The sites became boring. Officially thinking about quitting. But I love battling so much (Even thats ruined. My pet is a level 10 weakling :(:(

*Hugs nefs flash toon* That is so me!

UPDATE ALL of my guild messages posted by me were deleted. But we were talking about going shoping with Christian Bale and Gary Oldman O_O Whats dating about that??

That's stupid. The warning, not the picture. I think the picture is awesome. I don't even really go to Neopets anymore, just try and make fast money occasionally. But that's going nowhere. Don't be crestfallen. My pets are level 1. ^^

Well I've emailed them. I want to know what I've done wrong this time. I'm going to make a neo section on my forum and ask my guild members to join that. I'm not talking there if saying we want to go shopping with Christian Bale and Gary Oldman is considerd "dating" ¬_¬

Infact, every message I posted in my guild has gone.

It's the picture, the fact that the eyrie and the lupe is in love is what made neo send you the warning.

Cute picture by the way!

Nope it's not. They deleted all my guild messages. I don't even think they would be that harsh...

I've sent them a neomail. Since all my guild messages were deleted. So it's definately something they've misunderstoon in there YET AGAIN!

I do remember also saying in there "I have drawn a new pic of my Buzz. It's her sleeping with Fungus clone her meowclops."

You never know. They take everything out of context... ¬_¬

But also we were talking about going shopping with Gary oldman And Christian bale. I mentioned Gary was a girly man and he likes shopping.

I think they just don't like me.

OOOh sorry...I doonno what to say, try reasoning? NAh....that woldnt work with WNT......

They deleted your messages because you said,"Christian".

Sorry about the warning though. I hope everything will turn out okay.

The filters on neopets are ultra sensitive, every word that resembles another "bad" word gets filtered out, and you sometimes get a warning.. You can neomail TNT and tell them that you didn't mean any harm, and you should take down the picture. TNT sometimes realy annoyes me!

They didn't delete your messages because you said Christian. They didn't delete them because of their content. They were automatically erased when your account was frozen. When you get frozen, every single one of your guild posts vanishes. It happened to me too, and it had nothing to do with why I was frozen. You also vanish from highscore lists, but your poetry and Neopian Times submissions remain.

It isn't when you are frozen, it when your get a warning. I got a waring for being on the chat boards(go figure) and all my guild messages were deleted, it is automatic

It's the picture. And yes, saying 'Christian' would also be an 'offense' But the picture is cute

Gah! Virtual!!

I'm going to guess it was the picture ... but then again, it could have been saying you were in love with ... or it could have been the going shopping with ... or it could have been Christian.

The only reason I'm iffy on it being the picture is that they didn't clear the page -- they usually do that when something's against the "rules". I know they've cleared many a pet description and lookup.

Too many things, some written, some unwritten (what is and isn't ok to type) Ebay anyone?

Yes, when you get a warning all your messages everywhere are deleted. Harsh and confusing both to the person warned and to the people reading/posting with that person. Unless of course it's a spammer, someone deliberately cussing or otherwise being inappropriate or obnoxious - those we all wait to see them disappear.

You did none of those things. It does seem for alot of people that once you've gotten a warning and especially if you've been frozen for something, you're somehow "watched" more closely. I have no idea how or why. Then you see the scammers/spammers come right back and nothing's done to them!

What I'm doing? First barely posting anywhere on the site anymore, even my guild. What else? When I do post on the guild board I copy/paste my message - paranoid maybe, but after being warned for ebay...

I do still go to the HD - but I don't even type soup-faerie anymore if someone's looking for backgrounds, etc. The only things I offer help on are things inside the site - csshelp, the Neo html help pages, healing springs, things like that. Someone told me they actually DID get a warning for posting soup-faerie (the outside site warning) - they have an agreement with the site, don't they?

Things are getting very very scary...

Well it might ALSO be when you're warned, but I wasn't warned, just frozen, so that's not entirely correct.

True, my mistake

The warning includes "pets in heat", and your picture would fall directly in that category, no? (With the salivating and all that)
