Account Frozen

So my account was frozen for "scamming" last Thursday. I submitted a ticket this Sunday and plead not guilty and justified my innocence. I got a response today (that was quick) telling me the same cut and paste nonsense they tell everyone. (Your account was frozen for scamming other users, blah blah...)

 

Personally I don't care being frozen, although this account was by far the best well rounded account I've had, I was less emotionally invested because of TNT's track record despite my honesty in the past. The worse I've done this time around was use AoB intelligently and bought NP. Regrettably, the only thing I'll miss are my pets which I thought were pretty awesome.

 

After digging around some old interviews and learning more about Neopets questionable past, it really makes me that more curious of what goes behind the scenes that we're not seeing. I mean, I respect that TNT is trying to protect their property even if they don't provide sufficient evidence to back up their actions, but how exactly do you plan to strive on building an empire if you can't even get the basics right. Not to criticize their work but from years of experience in customer service, hospitality and jobs similar to those lines, one thing I'm almost certain of is that customer service is the backbone of any business. If you fail at that, then what do you have to strive for?

 

True, no one is forced upon playing Neopets, and the only reason I come back is because my childhood is tied to it and when nostalgia kicks in reminiscing is the most sensible option. However what I'm getting at is why settle for giving mediocrity when you can provide greatness? Many small businesses grew into big corporations because they put customer satisfaction first. Although a few lost there way and became solely monetary centric, there are those who have repeat customers for over half a decade. If Neopets is so concerned with making money and their only excuse for not on par quality is economic constraint, then they need to take a lesson in common sense 101. Virtually any business can weather any economic conditions if they play their cards right.

 

 

And that, my dear friends is my rant for the night. ;)

    I often wonder what the hell goes through the minds of the modern Neopets team members. -_-

     

    Either they're a bunch of corrupted fucks, or a bunch of dumbasses, or both. Or maybe this is all part of an elaborate scheme of Dr. Sloth's.

    Dr. Sloth is pretty epic if he can control TNT members. Heck, Sloth should be ruling Neopia by now if that was true.

    Truth be told they don't give a fuck unless you are really well known or buy alot of neocash. Years back you could actually contact TNT staff via email and get them to look into matters I'm not really sure if it's still around or not. I too play for the nostalgia every few years. I've been iced like 30+ times over the last 13 years. There have been times where I've been truly iced for nothing on legits accounts which I've never got back. I even got iced during the CGing epidemic for protection they havent given that account back yet. But i've gotten into the habbit of binge ABing when ever I return so my accounts don't last past 3-4 months so I just splurge all my NPs on everything I want cause I know the accounts won't last long. If you really want to keep a long time account you should get premium and buy alot of neocash so even if they do ban you for cheating you can usually get it overturned.

    Perhaps.

     

    MAYBE it's the Meepits!

    Either way, my mind has come to the conclusion this is why we get shitty automated responses from the support team.

     

    If it's Sloth, he has a team of lackey grundos that are too dull to come up with hundreds of substatial responses.

    Meepits I imagine would have hard time using a keyboard with those nubby little arms of theirs.

     

    It all makes perfect sense.

    So I guess the ticket didn't end up getting you anywhere :/ ... Perhaps there is more you can do to get it back... though I have no idea what that might be T___T I can't believe they won't even hear you out

    Wait, I say, wait a cotton pickin' minute here...
    How could you claim innocence if you were cheating on that account? 

    :o

    I can never trust you again, Peachy. NEVER.

    So, you don't care about being frozen, but you write a wall of text about it?
    Also, you cheated, they banned you, they did their job, how is that anything but your own fault?

    But apparently they didn't find out the real reason for cheating. Don't know it that makes any difference whether a staff member checked the right "why you cheated" box.

    That's their grounds for freezing right there. It falls under the 'scamming' title in their eyes, trust me, I know.

    I think I was frozen once for "buying/selling items or NP" years ago and it was spot on. So I figured its a different option than scamming.

    It's okay. They may have frozen my account but that still can't stop me from going back. ;) I guess it's that abusive relationship syndrome, lol.

    I wasn't accusing them of not doing their job, I was just curious to the methods behind their madness. And the only thing that makes since to it is the sloth conspiracy.  :p Otherwise it would've been nice if they say I did XYZ. Of course I may over reaching here. xD
