featheralley is a household name for the average neopian. But it didn't get that way over night...

How did featheralley make a name for herself on Neo? How did all the famous Neopians get famous?
I've been playing Neo for awhile now but have yet to find the secret. Do you get 30+ trophies? Do you dominate in wars???

What's the SECRET?!

[tastyphoxette]

You know, I have absolutely no idea who featheralley is. XD

There are famous neopians other than what's-his-face for his avatar?

[Black Flame]

Have very powerful pets, have lots of avatars, have lots of trophies, and do something that no one else has. Any of those things really, mainly the last one. Like featheralley was the very first to defeat Kass in the meridell war I believe. I think that's what made her a 'household' name.

[Tailwind]

Featheralley got her fame by having the strongest pet in Neopia. And she only even got THAT far because she was around back when Faerie quests could be asked for.

I don't know why you'd want fame though. It's overrated. It draws way too much attention to yourself, meaning you can get away with less, or you suddenly become scammer/beggar bait, or even worse. Then there's the people who are jealous of you and do whatever they can to get you frozen. D;

Not worth the effort. D;

Oh, don't worry, the famous people dont get frozen. Cript did a study on that.

[The Defier]

Yeah, once you've made a name for yourself, your chances of being frozen will drop since, well, Neo will think you really are THAT good. Well, at least that's what I think.

Or they need your name to attract other players .

[The Defier]

That seems like the more likely thing Neo would do .

I think I agree with the "do something no one has done before" thing. It would be easier if Neo gave prestige to honorable things like announcing it on New Features if someone broke the record for 20,000 HP... (Yes featheralley shows off her records on her pet's page but Neo doesn't.)

didn't featheralley get hacked anyway?

also, back in the day codestones only cost around 500np a pieace, so training was *pretty much* unlimited.

*sigh* it's so much harder now

you literally *have* to cheat to get anywhere decent!

[iNextGenWarrior]

Its not a secret... xD... you can be known on neopets for many things... Some people are known for being staff and having the Bonju avie... Some people are known for the type of things they put on the Money Tree... And some people are really good BDers or Rsers

who do you know with the bonju avy?

as far as i know, *no one* has it yet

[Waser Lave]

Sometimes it's better not to be known.

snarkie has it, apparently.

Indeed. I already have enough trouble keeping my accounts safe without all the extra attention from TNT.

That's who I was referring to...

Wow. Codestones being the price that's in their description. That's a snipe now-a-days!

[iNextGenWarrior]

BTW featheralley has SuAP... 600mil item...

[Gen]

Not true about the chance dropping
I was "known" at neoboards, since I had a darigan krawk with royal and halloween stuff, a mutant draik and two other pets(one of them was strong, since it was my training/zapping pet). Well, after I got known I was frozen

Being famous isn't good because if you use programs, it will be easier for people to find out...
