Wow, you guys must have been targeting me specifically with the Torberta ad for April Fools! Well done, it's so cute (and hopefully a sign of more to come, wink wink nudge nudge?) Also, great idea to celebrate International Mermaid Day! Love y'all TNT! ~kyndalbrooke
Thank you so so much for fixing the recent body paints! They are so beautiful and I am so glad I can use them in my customs now! All the hard work is really appreciated ~gannygan

Hi TNT, great work with the new elderly color for Chomby! This color always comes with nice wearables and speaking of which, I would like to ask that the wearables of the elderly Lupe be converted to HTML5, please? I'd be very happy if I could see the sweater of the elderly boy on my Lupe (I like to think he got it from his grandfather hahaha). Thanks!
Thanks to our Community Ambassadors and a very comprehensive list from Jellyneo, we have actually been working on converting all of the paintbrush items that were not previously to HTML5.
Your Elderly Boy Lupe should be rocking his sweater now, so go on and get him to bingo night! ~~Luna

Hi TNT! I would just like to say that you guys have been doing amazing with the prettiest wearables! Especially the Cotton Candy Skies Body Paint is truly perfect! My absolute favourite pet has had the description on her lookup that she wants to be the princess of the sky, and this body paint is like it was made for her -no tags here-3 I would love to use the Scenic Purple Dusk Background, because it matches so well, but unfortunately it has not been converted yet. Is there any way you could help with that? I would be eternally grateful ^.^ ~tatyanne
Hello! Happy to hear of the love for the new body paint wearables! Thanks for bringing this background issue to our attention! We have fixed the background so now your favourite pet can be the princess of the sky! Happy customizing! ~~Goldfish in Bowl

Dearest TNT, there seems to be some sort of.. issue of yours I would like to address. With the recent release of the petpet companion mystery capsules something urgent has come to my attention and I have to ask: Are yall allergic to Doglefox wearables or what? Where are they? They only have 5 wearables and 2 of them are plushies. Please respond, I'm desperate.
D'achoooo! We may be slightly allergic, but we're gonna stock up on Neopkins and power through it! If a Doglefox shows up soon, though, be sure to give him lots of pets!! /gen ~~Stone

Hello! I’m an omelette collector who has been in search of the grey ham and cheese omelette, but it doesn’t appear to drop from the giant grey omelette in Tyrannia! Is this an oversight? Or is there another way I’m supposed to obtain this omelette? ~chocolatebean18

Hi guys, gals, and nonbinary TNT pals! I suspect this may already be in the works but a girl’s gotta ask… is there a Varwolf avatar to be discovered? Perhaps even just a default avatar like the ones available for all other pets (except vandagyres, which, speaking of vandagyres…) ~xxglamourkillzxx
There isn’t currently a Varwolf avatar to be obtained, but never fear, you’ll be able to rep our newest Neopal on the boards soon. When Varwolves come out of hiding and are made available to the site as a whole this summer, they’ll bring an avatar with them! ~~Jewel

Hi TNT, I want to commend your team of artists and idea havers for the MME and especially for the bonus. I was one of the very lucky people that got one - I bought for my side, too.

Hi there TNT! Thanks for all the hard work lately! I was wondering if there is any chance for you to extend the Gourmet Foods rarity to r90-r180? For now, only r90-r100 foods are considered Gourmet. Getting the Gourmet pet trophy is really difficult as some old Gourmet foods are Retired (r180) now and there are not so many Gourmet Foods out there. Adding r101-r180 food would give more chances for new players to get the trophy, I hope you can consider this! *hands them fresh Gourmet Colombian Coffee* ~kingambit
Hi there! Thank YOU for the suggestion! We are working on making Gourmet Foods more accessible and introducing some new ones while we’re at it! We ask that you rest assured your grumbling gourmet tummy will be satiated soon so stay tuned! * grabs gourmet coffee and runs off in the opposite direction screeching * ~~Adler

PS, the owls are not what they seem. ~cooldraven8

Just so you know...there is a glitch at the National Neopian Bank. I collected my bank interest the past two days and then I get this message... Sorry! You have deposited and/or withdrawn Neopoints today. This means you will not be able to collect any interest until tomorrow. Come back tomorrow and at the start of each day to collect your interest. But, I did collect my interest and my bank balance proves this. May you please fix this? Thanks!! ~mommajade
It looks like one of the Meepits at the National Neopian Bank got carried away doodling on the daily interest logs and jammed the system. We’ve sorted it out – everything’s back to normal now. Thanks for flagging! ~~Rusty

Hi! I'd like to ask for the Floobix to be re-released somehow for the upcoming Lutari Day! They were only given out from very rare quests on Neopets Mobile back in the day, and are effectively lab-only just because there's none in circulation anymore. They're adorable and I've wanted one for years but the odds are astronomically low for a zap. Thank you for your time!!~wolfball106
Hello!
While we can make any promises, rest assured, we will hastily bring this to the attention of the Petpet Protection League and see if they can help this elusive and rare Petpet species out to make them more available across Neopia.

Hi I have been having a problem where a kind faerie asked me to get her a tinfoil hat and I have been searching everywhere to find one but cannot find that blasted hat! Please help! Thank you :) ~bensenfraggle
Hi there!
We consulted a certain well-informed JubJub wizard, and it turns out the Tinfoil Hat is in good supply in Neopia—you just might need a little help getting your hands on one!
You can head over to the Quests board at the Neoboards, where plenty of Neopians can help you track one down in user shops. With a little teamwork, you'll have that hat in no time!

Currently art that depicts realistic animals based on Neopet species are not allowed in the Beauty Contest. Artists often learn this the hard way when their entries are removed. Wearables such as the Forest Pteri Head make realistic animals canon in Neopia. Could this BC rule please be removed?~coolkaius
Hi, Thanks for bringing this up, we can certainly take a look at this and see if it can be removed or rephrased in someway to reflect those new additions to Neopia.

I've been wanting to grab one of the new Floof petpetpets for my p3 gallery but I have yet to see any stock. :( I've asked others and there seems to have only been one to appear on TP since they released. I know these little fur balls are meant to be elusive but this feels extreme. Would you consider adding them to a future prize pool or Hidden Tower or perhaps just have a chance of appearing as a random event when you buy anything from the Attic? ~nook
We have heard the overwhelming excitement over the Floof and agree they should be available for everyone! Keep an eye out for this little fur ball next time you complete your quests in the Month of Running. O.O Thank you for writing in!

Hello, TNT! I'm a big fan of Maraquan Pets, it's one of the cooler colours in Neopia, in my opinion. My Maraquan Skeith dreams of being a rockstar and he loves playing the drums, but there is only a slight issue... the Drumset Foreground can't be applied to his custom! I know he's Maraquan, but surely a foreground should work for everybody, my beloved Maraquans included, right? Is there a way to let our Maraquan Pets (and others) rock out to their heart's content? Thank you so much! ~mheowh
