Ok DariRoo is official (as official as April Fools' jokes can be IG) but can TNT stop letting the moderators relay bigoted punishments? Can TNT tell the moderators to not automod based on bigots reporting people for talking about LGBTQ+ topics? Can TNT school the mods in what means to do actual moderation jobs beyond just catching flag words? Can TNT reinstate the DariRoo fanfic and comic that were taken down last year by bigoted reporting? Or are we going to forever get inclusiveness pandering while still allowing rampant homophobia, transphobia, misogyny, racism, xenophobia, etc. in the Neoboards?

Conspiring Monarchs Ever since the Council Members fled back to their lands, two have caught my eye with their abundantly suspicious activity, above all the other nefarious deeds the rest of them are up to: King Roo and Lord Darigan. Over the period in which I investigated them, it became clear that these two were scheming behind their fellow Council Membersโ€™ backs. Itโ€™s not surprising, really; Iโ€™m sure we all suspected each and every one of them to be capable of treachery. Yet, I will admit, of them all I was least suspicious of the odd King Roo. His years of tomfoolery and overall clowning must have been a long con ruse that even I overlooked. I humbly admit my mistake, but rest assured that I will not be tricked again! To make up for this slip, I followed them restlessly, tracking their every move, and what I discovered bewildered me! What first gave me pause was the reports that the two had been seen together on Roo Island. Their behaviour was reported to be close in nature and speaking in hushed voices โ€” an obvious sign that they were up to something! It made no sense why Lord Darigan would fly King Roo to his land before returning to his own, and so I rushed to Roo Island as fast as I could. There, I observed incredibly strange actions, such as walking the perimeters of the sandy shores of the island and staying up into the mid-hours of the night. At first, I could not put two and two together, but then it clicked! They were preparing the island for war! They must have been planning to come together to overthrow the rest of the lands during this time of mass discord, the perfect time for these two low-tier sovereigns to strike! Then it happened: Lord Darigan returned to Darigan Citadel with King Roo. I was able to follow without being seen, but I do not know what I missed in the times they were out of sight. When I arrived, I was confused to find Lord Darigan leading King Roo into the Citadelโ€™s dungeons! I thought perhaps this was it, Lord Dariganโ€™s true evil plan was to trick King Roo into his dungeons to ensnare him there. Possibly this was his whole plan, to lock away all of the Council Members. It would make logical sense to start with King Roo, him being the easiest to fool. But no, upon further inspection I found them playing Cellblock together... However, it was then that the dungeon master, Vex, spotted me, and I had to flee or risk being imprisoned! While I may not have been able to get to the bottom of just exactly what the two are up to, I feel it is pertinent to share this info with all of my fellow sceptics, so you can all prepare yourselves for what may be to come! I fear the risk of all-out war could be upon us as well as the disasters that already surround us! Thereโ€™s simply no other explanation as to what those two could be up to!

Ive been using flash to look at the out of fame parts of backgrounds again to see whats there most of them are perfect square or just have a little bit of bleed over but a few have reference images and sketches

Check out this one, they grabbed the old faerie land image from sunnyneo

The Nox background has a ridiculous amount cropped out

I can also zoom in super close to details that are vectors and they stay so crisp

And look what was hiding in this one a lutari with its guide lines for designing wearables

Randomly decided to check lostmediawiki for the ps1 version of the darkest faerie and surprised to see a bunch of stuff I hadn't seen yet since the last time I checked it

Such as this high res image from the 2003 Press Kit I'd never seen before, look there's poor Grimilix. There was also a document that confirmed that Grimilix was intended to be one of the playable charters along with Tormund and Sally

also a bunch of items an ui stuff. As far as I can tell most of the these ones weren't based on existing items, or at least I don't recognize any of the swords but that does look like sloth's cape lol

there were also a bunch of other ui concept caps that just show strait up a bunch of items strait from the site that are weird

Question time.

Youโ€™re tasked with designing a new neopets color.

The catch is this is just a simple pallet swap color. No extra rendering or markings, no wearables. (Unless names into the pet design such as the ixi and aisha collars for example)

Think like the neopet color Orange, Purple, and Brown.

You can get really specific with the colors. It doesnโ€™t have to just be purple.

For example Iโ€™d personally want like a green that isnโ€™t so radioactively vibrant as the basic green.

Something swampy with maybe some brown accents? Idk. Call it Bog or Marsh.

Stuff like this:

What would you guys do? Iโ€™d love to see what just basic colors other people would like.

I personally love the strip paint brush because it's 2 contrasting colours (I know some people hate its colours) and wish there were more like that, more 2 colour paint brushes, a quick example I made is a "plum" colour

Here is how far I've gotten so far in Scorchio Quest

Starting room

North room

West room behind the yellow door (green ghosts chases you)

East room behind the blue door

South room behind the red door aka a boss room, beating him gives you the power of push box (also boss kills you in 2 touches at full health)

Back to northern room after beating the boss, pushing the box blocking the gem that teleports you to the second floor

second floor starting room (note the hint for the next room by the north door)

The solution to second floor north room, step on tiles to make them match

second floor west room behind yellow door has a spike trap that needs to be blocked using push box power

Second floor east room behind blue door (I have not gotten past this room yet)
