I found it interesting that a majority of the people (pretty much everybody) on neopets that i've became friends with were caucasian. Just curious if neopets just consists of a large number of caucasion people compared to other races, or if I just havent been social enough. (I'm asian btw).

[travis]

Probably white people.

Odd question.
According to Alexa or whatever it's called, the most traffic to go on Neopets is mainly from the US/Canada.
I have a Blackmarket page on facebook, a lot of the people there are from many different areas other than US/Canada.

So going off of a web traffic website, I would say they are all caucasian.

[Steve]

So, because the traffic comes from America, that automatically makes them caucasian? I fail to see how you made that connection...

Majority of americans are caucasian. I assume being the majority, there's a majority of them online as well.
That's where I made the connection.

I don't think that just because majority are American users means majority has to be caucasian. I'm American and i'm Asian as an example. The people on neopets could all be Asian American (although i don't think that's the case) so ur assumption isn't reallly valid

Um...I live in California and I'm hispanic..

Not all of the US is white ya know

Gah forget it.
I'm tired and I fail to see where I'm not making sense.

I'm not saying EVERYONE is white.
I'm saying caucasians make up most of the american population.
So if everyone in america had the internet, most would be white, because they make up most of the population
I'm just going by numbers.

How does this not make sense?

Because you're going by the assumption that the numbers accurately reflect the population ratios. The sampling that comes to this specific site isn't going to necessarily be the same as the population of the US.

But they are all white washed... hahaha


Its ok. Im from California too. And I'm Mexican too. But I'm American because I was born here.

I wish I was from District 3... or maybe 6.

I'm not white-washed. I made it a point to learn about my culture and learn Spanish.
I consider myself Guatemalan American.

I'm pretty proud of my heritage. ^~^

Well that's because white has to compete with brown, black, and yellow.

[NapisaurusRex]

None of which are Caucasian...

[James]

Commence operation brainwash everyone in America into thinking they are Caucasian!

On topic, why don't you make a poll OP? That would make more sense than just having people guess.

[Elindoril]

I'm pretty sure white white people are Caucasian, last time I checked.

[NapisaurusRex]

I'm pretty sure white white people are Caucasian, last time I checked.

What? Brown, yellow, black, and red people aren't.

[Elindoril]

What? Brown, yellow, black, and red people aren't.

Yeah, and that's why I said they have to compete with all the other races and that's why they aren't the majority of births.

[NapisaurusRex]

I'm glad we're all on the same page.

[McAwesome]

The peope I mix with on Neopets are mainly asians (hong kongers, chinarians etc). I am chinese btw.

[NapisaurusRex]

I guess I'm labeled as White-European as I'm mixed.

What kind of non-white European are you?

[Yung]

The white non-Caucasian type of course,

Spaniard, Italian, or *shudders* Cave Person.

EDIT: I'm joking obviously.

Cave People don't exist.
