Forever looking into this lab ray on Neopets. One of the best topics I’ve seen come across on the newbie chat. the rest of page 25 was some dumb troll just exploding the topic.

yoooo if people want to read the legendary plushie pb thread, Denz here is doing the lord’s work and has screenshots of all 25 pages

for someone who doesnt really play neopets anymore but still wants in on this juicy drama, could you explain all the hullabaloo thats going on with the cc event?

Since this CC is such a mess I have decided the best way to explain is with a timeline type list. So here we go:

0. People spend all year prepping for charity corner by hoarding sticky snowballs.

(If you don’t know, sticky snowballs are a big deal. They are marked as ultra rare and worth 8 points in CC but you can buy one every half an hour for only 25 neopoints. People hoard thousands and have alarms set to go off every 30 minutes. Even at work or while sleeping)

1. TNT delays charity corner for months because they “want it to be perfect” so people already had high expectations.

2. Charity corner finally starts and people realize they’re only getting 1 single point for sticky snowballs specifically instead of 8. Every other item value is untouched.

3. People become very angry and claim this was done out of spite and TNT hates their userbase.

4. The site is already lagging due to CC. To be petty people start donating thousands and thousands of sticky snowballs to the money tree instead which makes the lag even worse.

5. People finally click on the button to view prizes and realize there are absolutely no perks to buy this year and instead a tiny prize shop of soon to be worthless items. There are also 3 mystery boxes.

6. The mystery boxes? People began opening them.. it turns out there was actually less than a 1% chance of getting a rare item. The items you get could be as low in rarity as r1.

7. There is no mass donation button. You have to manually check off 15 items and you cannot leave the tab as the slow unskippable animation goes on between each donation

8. It was taking hours to donate due to lag and the slow method of doing so

which leads us to...

9. People were spending well over 3 hours to donate enough for one mystery capsule (originally 4500 points)

10. Since sticky snowballs are only worth one point nobody was prepared. They were forced to donate much more expensive items

11. People were wasting hours and extra thousands and thousands of neopoints on new items to donate only to open a mystery capsule and receive one item worth even less than 1000np in return

12. People lose it and begin attacking TNT as well as anyone who defends them

13. Everyone starts cancelling their premium membership and encouraging others to do so too.

14. TNT posts an update on an unofficial discord server well before the actual website.

15. TNT finally posts onsite saying they want to have “open ended dialog” with users then proceed to ignore everyone and punish the people who were criticizing them.

16. As part of the update they decrease the prize shop prices massively and apparently add 1 extra percent to the chance of getting a rare item (no one has yet btw) They also promise to refund points already spent and give everyone an extra 500 points to save their skin.

17. Everyone still spends all night bashing TNT (Especially Tony P.) and throwing every complaint at them at once. Including multiple other issues such as how they handle the LGBT community and some of the questionable content on the site. A lot of people were frozen and permasilenced.

18. The next day no one has been refunded yet but TNT thought releasing a mobile update on youtube was a bigger priority. People immediately harassed the video until they privated it.

19. More people rage quit, cancelled premium and swore to never buy NC or merch again because TNT was handling things so poorly.

20. TNT finally came out with another statement and refunded points

21. The points refunded disappear as soon as you donate again. Some people didn’t get refunded at all. The extra 500 they promised only showed up for some people and also disappeared for others. People with thousands of points now somehow have negative points.

22. TNT closes the general store, making points much harder to get, especially since no one was prepared this year due to the snowball nerf. (This would have been fine other years, but this year it feels like it was out of spite since it was only closed after users acted out)

23. A few hours later charity corner is semi closed. You can no longer donate the “easy” way. Instead you must click on a single item, have a window pop up, click a button, have the page refresh, close window, refresh again. Repeat for every item.

24. Since TNT can’t communicate properly people are unsure if it’s closed due to a whole new glitch or purposeful closed while they fix the already existing issues. Regardless people are still very angry.

and finally……

25. It’s only been 2 and a half days. CC is supposed to last until the 24th

UPDATE:

26. TNT says the prize shop will stay open indefinitely instead of closing at the end of the event. This means prizes will be worth even less over time.

27. Ironically the prize shop closes in the same manner as quick donations did. Again with no explanation.

28. People began getting spammed with neomails from a fake TNT account trying to grab cookies and account information.

29. The site went down for many hours

30. The negative and 0 prize points were fixed awhile after the site came back but many people still haven’t been refunded or gotten the promised 500.

31. TNT announces Charity corner will be extended to the 28th. That’s 4 extra days. They did not speak on any of the issues and only mentioned it in the news so they can avoid the boards.

32. Users found out that TNT likely mixed up tier 1 mystery capsules with tier 3 capsules. This means the most expensive box actually has the lowest payout rate by accident.

33. Users are now asking for more refunds since they were sold the wrong box at almost 3x the price.

34. Since TNT remains silent people have now began spamming the editorial and tickets regarding the mix up.

35. Everyone is now exploiting the fact the cheapest box mistakenly has a higher payout and buying hundreds. No one is sure if TNT will scorn us more for this but it has caused many arguments.

36. I’m doing better at updating CC information than TNT is.

Please stand by, I’m sure there will be more issues to report on soon

once someone made a board that was like “I’ll tell you either when your greatest disaster will happen OR how to avoid it” and told me to like… check the air pressure in my tires and I still think about it constantly
