ummynator: ub3r-g00b3r: Here lies Neopets, a once enjoyable pet site brought to it’s imminent end by JumpStart, shoddy servers, and yesterday’s decision to downsize while help was needed more than ever.



Rest in peace. For those of you who think this is a joke, it’s not.



Neopets.com staff are being downsized, meaning much of TNT are being laid off. They learned this before the news was to update yesterday, that’s why there is no news. Or communication. Also see snarkie’s tweet.



What is to become of our site?

I suppose I should have supplied evidence. Thanks for posting it.



I don’t see how anything will ever get fixed now if they couldn’t fix anything with the staff they had before. They were already struggling with what felt like a bare bones crew. Part of me wonders if they’ll just leave everyone wondering what’s going on with no news updates after the one on Thursday, and then shut the site down in a few months with no warning whatsoever. That’s what happened with Petpet Park.

There’s no way they’ll allude to something this big happening; it’s bad for NC/Premium sales which they will *absolutely* need to keep the site going. How I see it is that the website becomes essentially “unsupported.” So if features break, they will remain broken, which we are already experiencing. They could have a few people keeping the website simply online, while a few artists release a pet or item now and then - the bare minimum to have activity.



I don’t know if I want to buy more NC to help out the site or essentially prepare to say goodbye to my pets.
