@wibreth:

The heyday of Neopets has long gone. But Dominic Law, CEO of Neopets Meta, thinks the two decades-old virtual pet game has all the right ing

he's a previous netdragon employee who saw neopets and convinced them the neopets metaverse would be a good idea.

Mainly what I'm getting from this article is that the actual split-off happened two years ago, but is still basically exactly what they said happened in their post, that an internal team broke off as an independent company and bought out Neopets. Also, that article is from March, and seems to be reporting on all the Metaverse stuff that TNT has now specifically said is not happening anymore. It also has Law quoted as comparing play-to-earn crypto games to Ponzi schemes and saying that the currency was meant to be in-game only, so it's not at all clear to me what kind of game this Metaverse was even supposed to be in the first place, or if it was even going to involve crypto.

Since this article is very out of date and seemingly contradictory on some points, I checked Wikipedia:

So, basically, what I said in my original post appears to in fact be correct. Neopets Meta, or Neopets Metaverse, appears to be old news and doesn't actually own the site anymore (and Wikipedia doesn't even seem to think it was ever a separate company, but rather some kind of subsidiary of NetDragon, since Neopets was purchased from NetDragon five days ago, more or less just as TNT said), and Dominic Law is no longer its head. It looks like the full extent of the crypto/NFT adventure was that NetDragon created a Neopets cryptocurrency (which is no doubt defunct now) and sold 4000 Neopets NFTs, and it doesn't seem like the cryptocurrency or NFTs ever actually became part of any Neopets game. The new company is actually called World of Neopia and does in fact include the internal Neopets teams from JumpStart/NetDragon and Neopets Metaverse. It's a bit weird to get up in arms about misinformation and then pull out an article from four months ago and claim that it's actually about an event that happened a week ago.

Also, lmao at NetDragon generating NFTs with DTI

☕ grundos dot cafe poetry contest

LMAOOO JESS ILY

ok i have to be honest. i submitted one poem for the poetry contest on shoyru day last year and it was accepted and i have not looked back because i couldn't take the poems published very seriously but let me go investigate the last few sets of winners

ok i mean some of them are fun and silly? there's too much rhyming and also my like personal least favorite thing is when someone capitalizes the first letter of every line in a poem and you can tell they're doing it bc they think that's the Right Format and it's not actually a thoughtful feature of the poem and there's a lot of that

it's cool to see some in other languages! i think that's dope.

i saw a few that i actually looked like someone put some thought into but generally i can't take the poetry contest seriously on gc or retail because i am too insane about poetry.

that said i do believe that even the shittiest poem could speak to someone and that would make it worthwhile so if you're reading this and you think 'wow i shouldn't submit my poetry to the poetry contest on grundos cafe' i absolutely think you should write it and submit it!! just bc i'm a snob you shouldn't tamper on your own creative spirit
