People born too late to be landlords big mad at neopets bringing back unconverted pets

Self proclaimed communists when their pet simulator devalues an asset they’ve been hoarding so that more people can have fun playing the game

god i wish i wouldn’t have to explain the intricacies of the neopets economy to you guys to give the full context for this but. the new neopets team that took over from jumpstart pledged that they were going to curb the inflation of rare items, which is great because a lot of rare items are worth literally hundreds of millions of neopoints, they are unbuyable unless you’ve been playing actively for 20 years. they did this earlier with a site festival that included random loot boxes, some of which had Unbelievably Fucking Rare And Precious items worth 200 million neopoints apiece.

well.

today they have gone a step further. by releasing this year’s trick-or-treat bags. and having the trick-or-treat bags be stuffed to the brim with unbelievably fucking rare stamps, weapons, paint brushes, defense magic, and other unbuyables. (all prohibitively expensive and in-high-demand types of items.)

jellyneo, the premier neopets website, has recorded prices of some items plummeting from 2,000,000 neopoints to 4,000 neopoints IN THE LAST THREE HOURS. this is when most people haven’t even heard about the event or OPENED THEIR BAGS YET.

and of course. cherry on top. 20-year-old account holders are crytyping on the site events neoboard about how mean and cruel it is to make rare stamps part of the prize pool, because their entire identity hinges on being part of the neopian bourgeoisie, and they are having MELTDOWNS over their assets being devalued until they’re part of the lowly proletariat.

this is a children’s game for children btw.

none of the money is real.

i’m having such a good time.

oh fuck yeah this is the coolest

They’ve also introduced a ‘daily quest’ feature that gives a shitton of rare, retired, and expensive items as rewards for basically doing a set of simple tasks like 'feed your pet’ or 'play a game’ 7 days in a row.

Panicked ultrarich players who have been hoarding rare, practically unobtainable items are panic-selling now, afraid that their precious multi-hundred-million worth items are going to plummet in price. Things like exorbitantly priced pet backgrounds, paint brushes, retired petpets and stamps are all part of the prize pool. Regular and returning players are delighted, not just at making bank, but also because the panic-selling means they have a higher chance of obtaining dream items that they wouldn’t have otherwise.

I’m getting a Faerie Kadoatie!

posting him in the year of the rabbit.. wow.. it was planned all along
