10th Birthday Celebration Guide]]> http://www.jellyneo.net/index.php?comments=4601 <![CDATA[Help JN Stay Alive]]> Sat, 14 Nov 2009 18:19:43 PST Update: We just want to thank you guys for all of your help thus far... you've all been extremely generous! :D In fact, we're almost half way there already!! In case you missed it from earlier, here's our post again.

Hey guys! You might have noticed that JN hasn't had the best uptime lately. That's mainly because we're low on funds, and running JN on the private server we have costs a big chunk of change. We know not everyone has money to spare, but if you'd like to send a few bucks our way to help pay the hosting bills, please check out our new donation page!

It costs about $1,500 a year to keep JN up. We make absolutely no money from running the site, and we've relied solely on visitor generosity over the years. However, that generosity only gets us so far. Therefore, we have set a goal to raise $1,500 for 2010 so that we can have much more uptime and you guys will always have access to our services. :)

We'll get there... eventually!
This is also how we've remained the #1 ad-free Neopets help site on the web! If you're interested in helping us to maintain that status, all of the details are on that aforementioned donation page.

Also, if you're under 18, don't have PayPal, or just don't want to send money to a group of wackos running a website, no problem! JN will continue to remain 100% free for anyone who visits. :)

The last group are right! I haven't been able to locate him for days. You are probably wondering who this is, then. This is not one of the other staff members covering for Sci. This is SciAI, the Artificial Intelligence unit created by SciFi. I once played chess with Skynet; it now resides in a single hard drive securely locked away. However, I kept reaching stalemate with Lt. Commander Data. Dr. Sloth refused to play me...something about revenge.

But you didn't come here to hear me talk about myself, you came for the editorial. So transport over there then, go on, get moving.

Redirect to Editorial 111

Next week, you'll be getting two editors for the price of one! Yes, it will be a collaboration between the overseer of the Item Database, Zador, and Pet Directory manager, Scissors! Send in your queries today!

Hello!

I know you're probably sick of hearing about the Editorial Database, but week after week, JN receives questions that can easily be answered by a quick, three second search.

Consequently, I'm here today to show you some examples of how to search effectively, using actual, previously submitted questions.

Case #1
You want to know, How do I gift Elite Boutique items?
Keywords to type in: gift elite boutique -- [Search results]

Case #2
You want to know, What's up with those orange spots on the old purple pets?
Keywords to type in: orange spot -- [Search results]

Case #3
You want to know, Why is March 3rd on Neopets "cancelled due to lack of interest"?
Keywords to type in: march cancelled -- [Search results]

More Examples
Why can't White Onas be painted? -- [Search results]
What do Tombola coins do? -- [Search results]
Will Jellypets ever be real? -- [Search results]
How do you get the Spoppy II and Spoppy III? -- [Search results]
Where is the Hidden Tower in the new revamped Faerieland? -- [Search results]
So, before you send in that question of yours, please try the Editorial Database first. It'll save you time, it'll save me time, and that's a win-win situation! :D

Thank you!

-- The Editorial WorkUni

I'm part of the Fantastic Four Graphic Designers here on Jellyneo. I'm here today to present you with the 110th Editorial! In it, you'll find pleasant questions about omelettes, Fish Neggs and beaches. But do not expect to find pleasant answers, for they are partitioned with Dismal Displays of Dancing, Fountain Faerie Cosplays, and Censored Customisation Closet Malfunctions! Follow me as I go head to head in a Neo-trivia duel with my doppelganger, Rosie!

Continue on to Editorial 110!
Next week, the editorial will be answered by the great and powerful SciFi!
Send in your questions today!

Don't forget to check the Editorial Database first, though. We don't mind pointing out some things that have already been published, but we'd like to answer unanswered questions, and if you can find what you're looking for in another editorial, you don't have to wait until we answer it, so everybody wins!

Atlas of the Ancients, eh? Is it a plot? Is it just another Faerie Festival event? :P We'll find out on October 15th when TNT plans on releasing more information!

You might remember that we brought you information on a potential Lutari Island plot, and this may be it. You'll also notice that Roxton is featured in the image, and he's a Lutari. Probably just a coincidence, but he's also from the Journey to the Lost Isle Plot. Could Roxton be adventuring through Neopia once again, but this time stumble upon the previously closed Lutari Island? What do you guys think? Let us know in comments!
