Pound will be up on Monday...or not

#1 Post by Siouxper »

Pound Update - *Holds up hand to quiet everyone* We will put the pound back up on the site on Monday. We have changed the pound a bit so we are giving everyone a chance to check out the Pound FAQ over the weekend. We are very excited about this and we know that you are too! :)


From today's news :D

I just read the FAQ, and they're adding a Transfer feature! :D It's something that's been needed for a really long time, IMO, and I happen to think it's the best change they've made in this recent round of changes. The pet keeps its petpet and clothing, too, which is a major plus. I can see some avatar transfers being made with this feature.

Actually, pets don't keep their clothing: :X One of the things the FAQ talks about. Clothing from pet colors stays with the user.

This is fantastic. It makes me really happy. I'm glad for those of you who use the pound an aweful lot and I'm even happier for those of you whose pets have been stuck in there for so long. :D

If you use the transfer feature, which is limited to once a month, all items except NC Mall items ( :cry: ) and BD items go with the pet

I am very excited about the possibility of being able to transfer pets now! I do wish however we could own five neopets. I have a lab ray just sitting around and if I could get another pet to adopt, I'd host pets and get them all prettified for others!

Yeah, like other people have said, I was referring to the transfer feature when I said pets keep their clothing. :)

The one transfer per month limit is frustrating because I have 3 pets to transfer (and 1 has NC items on it, which don't transfer) :x

Say you have pets A B C D on one account.
On another account you have pets 1 2 3 4

You want to take pet 1 and pet A and switch them around. Can the game figure that out? I think you need a free space somehow to accept a pet, though.

I don't think that's possible. The FAQ says you can't create another pet until someone accepts your transfer, so I would assume you can't recieve another pet in transfer, either. You could probably use a third account to transfer some of the pets, although it would take a reeeeeeally long time if you wanted to transfer more than 2.

I have a few to shuffle as well, but I can see why the 1 per month thing is in place, as well as the account age limit (older than 4 months).

Amarise: The account would have to age to 4 months to do any transferring. :(

Well, I was actually thinking of an existing third account, but I suppose a lot of people don't have that many. The 4-month thing does make sense, though. It'll really prohibit those scammers that used to sell pets in the pound. This way, if they get frozen they can't just go back to selling again.

Yeah...I only have one account. I tried 2 for a while, but I like just focusing on one. It makes me happier and more focused. :)
