So I was chatting with one of the other site members the other day about some of the high statted bd pets out there. We plugged Antorcha's stats into one of the training school cost calculators and it came to a total of something like 41 years and approx 11.5 billion neopoints. (that price would be strictly from training school codestones)

Obviously, neggs were used in training this pet but the point remains.. How does one continue training a pet continuously, especially with sneggs going for 200k and cool neggs going for 500k? I don't even think someone Abing constantly could fund such a pet?

Opinions? Explanations?

Also, in b4 "making neopoints isn't hard bro"

Agreed, also keep in mind when the pets were made.
A long time ago, neggs would be worth a 1k per token (which isn't cheap but that was a long time ago) and they have risen steadily til now. Also, shrooms were restocked so I imagine that that would pretty cheap as well. This in conjunction with cheaper codestone prices probably led to them having a cheaper training cost back then.

Additionally, what Georgina said - they should be pretty rich considering all the war events they've been too. Also since they've been around for so much longer - a lot of the retired/rare items sell for a lot more then what they used to.

For neocodex, I think the vast majority of people make their money by AB-ing. However, getting into the market place and being a "reseller" is also a great way to make money. Before I quit the last time, I spent a couple of days reselling and boy were the profits handsome.
I easily made 1 mil on a draik egg by sniping, and I also sniped a few morphing potions as well. I think that also if you're on a lot and offer low prices/noob items for some UB's you'll get lucky. Often people want to push stuff they've been trying to sell for weeks for whatever price they can get. Then they turn back and resell this stuff for hundreds of thousand more then they paid for it.

I remember one guy last week was buying angelic lolly pops for about 280k (that's what he said he bought 3 others when I pm'ed him) but I checked jellyneo and it was worth upwards of 1.5 mil. I advertised around a little bit (and nm users who said they were collecting gourmets) and easily sold it for 1.3 mil within an hour or two. So if you're that guy that are snatching up UB's without a TP price then you could potentially be making 1 mil every time you make a trade (and in some instances more)

Yea I think you should get rid of the NPs asap. You never know when TNT's gonna fire their icebeam. Was this AB'ed through a shell?

If you got the egg, sold it, and then sold the NPs, I think its safe to consider whatever account you used as good as iced.

(another problem would be if you could sell the NPs in time before they decide to ice, not saying they will 100% but.....Its a high chance)

Where are these statements coming from?
I onced AB'ed an egg and this was before schedulers so I only found out after I woke up and went to classes which meant 12 hours of restocking. Most of which were in the igloo. I sold the draik egg asap and nothing even happened to me.

I doubt that you'll get banned unless you AB'ed it on a 3-4 month shell with nothing at all on it. Get some trophies, get some avatars - use goddamn neocodex. Make it at least look like your shells are real.
Yeah, Abrosia is probably the most profitable program but it's not like any of the other programs are super hard to set up or anything.

Ok, that answers that question.
Does this site have any score senders?
I didn't see any in the downloads section, but I noticed that I saw parts of this board after I registered that I couldn't see before, so I thought maybe there were programs I would have to become paid or advanced to see as well.

As of right now, all the programs are available to both normal and advanced members.
Advanced members have the additional option of configuring their settings (for some programs) that normal members don't.

I highly do advise buying a membership, it's 5 dollars a month (4 if you buy it for 3 months) and at the going rate of neopoints (which seem to be around 4 dollars for 1 million neopoints), you can make many many times that in a month if you play smart.

This site does not have any score senders but if you do look around and read, there are guides on how to use score senders. There's one that will tell you how to get it, how to install it, and what to do with it. It just takes a little bit of searching up.

If you have any question, you can search the forum with either keywords near the top right of the page. It's extremely helpful and 99% of the time - it'll not only beat people answering the thread in terms of time but also in terms of quality of information.

Given the general hostility, I think I wouldn't now.

Well, it might help if you do go into IRC and talk a bit.

I think I understand why people get so mad. This forum isn't generating much money really, and really thrives on the support of its members. By being an active and interesting forum, other people will be attracted to this forum and can also contribute to what the creators of the forum intended.

By spamming the threads and posting useless things, not only do you drive away potential newcomers but you turn away people who haven't started posting as well as regular posters.

Nobody wants to see threads full of barely finished sentences that are not even spelled correctly. Think about it, would you like to be in a conversation with people that just repeat others, slur as if they're drunk and mention things that don't even pertain to the topic?
You probably wouldn't and that's what these older members are feeling. They've spent countless hours to help the newer members with program issues, neopet issues and give them tons of advices on what to do. Now they return to see all these new members who just post constantly and without thought to get to 500 posts to achieve a membership and additional usage of a program. All of this sounds pretty heartless.

So, lets try to do what they have done and help make this website attractive to newer members by contributing and actually trying to help other members rather then post inane comments.

EDIT:
I meant to type isn't - I swear!
I figured 5 dollars a month would barely begin to cover servers since I know I run programs almost all day long and I KNOW others are too.
