Interesting idea, but I would much rather have an adults-only board developed. Regardless of the fact that it's a kids site, It would be nice if there was a separate place where political discussion, mild language and arguments wouldn't be freezable offences. Given that there are so many adult players (and I'm assuming that's where most profit is generated from) it would make sense for TNT to develop some sort of sub-section of the site where adults could discuss things a little more colourfully.
Useful! I'm waiting to hear back from TNT about receiving gifts from other accounts, and this will help in the mean time. My boyfriend plays neopets, but mainly just to play games and then he likes to send me all the items and money he collects. They're both registered with different University emails, so I figure its relatively safe. I'll use these tips in the future however (: Cheers.
