^ I was going to say, Habitarium or Key Quest being back online would be an interesting topic, plus it's something that it could reasonably be hard to find the link to, or perhaps invitation only for testing (consider the year of Goldrun).

They've been pretty public with the fact that habitarium isn't coming back, but key quest could work! Shinko - you're probably right that it's not Defenders 3 xD Not that I'd put it past them to release it without fixing 1 and 2, but they don't seem to have any artists employed at the moment (with the possible exception of the pet-colour-person), so I'm guessing a comic may be a little beyond them... xP

Oh yay, one of the best events is coming back!
I agree that it would be best to avoid anything too meta. Key Quest is kind of meta but could be adapted for fiction. Same goes for the return of ancient pet species or a new colour (although I think Jellyneo used a fake new colour as their prank at some point?) I can imagine pets waking up to find they've turned back to the old art. x3
So far, my favourite idea is Defenders 3. It's cool to come up with more imaginary details and features, to make users go "but WHERE can I find this and play with it D:" For Defenders, maybe you could turn your own pets into superheroes with fancy customisation and send them into a kind of quest... though that's a bit like a new NQ. We could have really ridiculous new villains... well, some of the canon villains kind of already have that covered xD
I'm trying to think of more ideas -and remember past suggestions that didn't get picked. I like how Grandma Boochi came after the Elderly colour. What even happened in Neopia over last year? (apart from the Topsi terror?)

I like the Key Quest idea. How about its "announced" that instead of fixing Key Quest that instead a sequel to it is being released: Key Conquest! That way we're not completely limited to what Key Quest has and we can come up with things like new game modes, new mechanics, new site interactivity, etc..
Defenders 3 is also a fun idea though I would wait to see what JS has planned with their battling event.

Maybe some scandal breaks out in Faerieland and Fyora has to abdicate because she's the mastermind behind it all. Perhaps we don't want to do something related to Faerieland again since Wraithland is already tied to it.

Things that would set the Neo-community in a storm: 1. UC paintbrushes (can you imagine the Pound Chat) 2. Defenders of Neopia 3 (as per Shinko's idea) 3. Charity Corner in the middle of the year 4. BD event (although JS is apparently planning one and idk if it'll actually be released before April, so this plan might have to be adjusted as more news comes along, as I'm not sure if CQ will give us the heads-up on whether or not the "event" will be released before April Fools) 5. Smuggler's Cove actually releasing some new BD items Annnnd that's all I have off the top of my head atm. XD

What if their BD event is fixing defenders 1 and 2, in addition to bringing out 3?

XD Guys, seriously, I can't think of a reason why that would be their event when Defenders isn't an event- it's a site feature. That would be like them hyping a plot and it's just a new set of tiers for the Illusen and Jhudora quests. If you don't want to do Defenders 3 that's totally fine, but I wouldn't count Defenders being their big event as a strike against the idea. There are so many other borked site features that would be way higher priority to fix.

I think UC Paintbrushes would send Neopets into an enjoyable frenzy. xD

What if their BD event is fixing defenders 1 and 2, in addition to bringing out 3? *Swings in on an interweb* Hi, this is your friendly neighborhood web developer, dropping in from the Most Recent Posts section to present reasons that Defenders 3 seems highly unlikely to be JS's big battle project. Working with other people's code is no fun. Fixing errors in code is no fun. Fixing errors in other people's code is the stuff of nightmares! ...So, to be more serious - JS's probably not going to spend time going back and fixing a fairly (as I understand it) unpopular site mechanic and create a sequel - especially when there are a lot of other site coding problems that should be their developers' priority. Something like a plot, at least the way they've been done in the past, is likely going to be mostly writer and artist-driven, with some developer features for stuff like map changes and adding new enemies to the Battledome and such that most likely won't take nearly as much time as fixing TNT's old code. Not saying 100% that JS won't do it because they have made some odd choices before, but it would be a very strange choice and I think it would be a surprise if that happened. Especially alongside glitch-fixes for Defenders 1 and 2. *swings away again*

I say let's do Defenders 3 XD It seems to be a favourite for almost everyone (which is really saying something for such a diverse bunch of people!) and would be a great joke xD I also agree with what Tiger and Shinko said. Defenders 3 really doesn't fit what they've hyped and is an unlikely choice. I'm almost sorry for bringing it up in the first place, it was meant to be a joke! xP

Will not lie, I was thinking of this for a while and all I'm thinking is Weewoos. All. About. Weewoos.
And this is why Rabbit isn't in charge of the collab ideas. XD

New challenger: Weewoo Flock, unlocked by certain obscure random chance when reading the NT (think Edna avatar), has a rare chance to drop NT multiple-of-50 issue prizes?
