This Week's Editorial (Editorial Discussion)…

[Blueysicle]

There is some injustice here in Neopia! On Krawk Day, Krawks were only given one new outfit, whereas 'pets traditionally get a male and female outfit!!! How unfair! Were Krawks just not loved this year? ~silly_mistake

We love Krawks just as much as any other Neopet! The reason there was only one outfit is because, during our transition to JumpStart, we're low on resources as we move. Basically, we have less butter, but still the same amount of bread to spread it over! That's why we've been extending things such as Grey Day into Grey Week, so that we can still provide you with new content daily. Since Pet Days take significant resources, we've had to prune them back a bit for now. There's no offense to Krawks (or Lutaris) intended; we're just providing the amount of content that we are currently able to during this time.

Ah, that explains it. Probably explains why there hasn't been any new custom pics for the NT for a few weeks too. Glad that it's just temporary, though.

Is there a reason "pets" is now typed as "'pets" in the last couple editorials cause it is really really strange

[Deleted]

Seems like that must be a punctuation some players use. It looks like TNT doesn't use it in their replies, though. I guess it's like how some people capitalize "Faerie" or Neopet/Petpet species and some don't.

I fed my 'pet the Potion of Strategic Maneuvers, and it said that they felt a bit faster and stronger. However, when I checked my stats, nothing had actually changed! Is the potion supposed to be like that, or is not working properly? ~unfreeze_divicool72
We've looked into it, and the Potion of Strategic Maneuvers should now be working correctly.

SO glad I stocked up on these.

Hello, TNT! I was recently reading up on the Art Contest rules and I noticed that you provide us with a physical address to mail submissions to. My question is this: what is the strangest submission you have received, and what do you do with the submissions after they have been judged? Is that what you have been feeding snarkie all this time? ~factory

(....)

As far as the strangest submission ever... well, that would be the Neopian hero pin-up calendar someone drew and sent us around the time of the Hannah and the Ice Caves plot. We're not even sure we could describe any of the pictures burned into our poor minds without toeing the line of indecency.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I remember that calendar! XD We sent it to Snowflake as a present! Good times.

Guess what? I still have that image I drew for it, too. XD (Warning: Garin butt.)

XD THAT TOTALLY MADE MY DAY WHEN THEY REFERENCED THAT.

And lets not forget about Komori's OTHER pin-up, Hannah!

[Shinko]

Pfffffff, wow. XD Clearly it made an impression.

My first thought on reading that was: 'That was Crystal, wasn't it?' (Was Crystal a part of that?)

[Komori]

Yeah, I think she was the one who physically produced the calendar and mailed it? I forget exactly. X3

[Carolyn]

Well, guys, I have to admit I have not laughed this hard in ages, lol. Poor TNT!

Here's the original thread, though most of the images are now broken links: ntwriters.proboards.com/thread/31430/ntwf-calendar

... What has been seen can never be unseen.

Also, who is Snowflake?

I'm pretty sure she was the editor for the times before Droplet.

[Nut]

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I remember looking at that thread when I'd just joined here and being like O__o "what kind of forum is this"... It's nice to know this place has left such a lasting impression.

[Breakingchains]

I was cracking up over that question yesterday and wondering who the heck could have produced such a thing. Then I come here and oh my God, plot twist. xDDDD
