Rule Change
The Terms and Conditions has been changed, to allow open discussion of other virtual pet sites, as well as any competing site.
This does, however, come with some restrictions. We will not allow trolling (NERPETZ IZ BETTER THAN SUBETA!11!?!111one), direct referral links, or promotion of other pet sites.
Have fun :)

I used to play Neo regularly and still kind of do. Well, I don't restock or play many games, but I do go over there daily to talk to friends, check the news, and occasionally enter the poetry competition. It's nice to see that I can talk a bit about it now, but I do agree that it isn't the only great petsite out there. Rescreatu is amazing, as is Kenopets. It'll be nice to talk about some of those as well.^^

This is awesome. Even though, I like this site best, I still am on neo and mistic, it'd be nice to meet people who may play multiple sites too. =)
Thanks so much Subeta is my favorite but I love all my "little darlings" everywhere and will love to show them off to friends <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />
I love you people. XD<br />

I despise when petsites implement the OMG NO PETSITE TALK WHATSOEVER crud. It's like walking into K-Mart, saying the word Wal-Mart, and getting arrested or thrown out of the store. Rofl.

Heh I still play neopets, but it doesn't capture my attention that much. And, thank you for being less restrictive about talking about other pet sites if a person wishes. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Yay I can say "Neopets" and not get into trouble.Speaking of trouble it seems like anything you post Neopets can get you frozen.I hate it with a passion and I could probably write six pages on it.Which is why i love Subeta.<3

I love that one thig that you did btu WTF neopets SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!what is the world coming too?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? DX
One of the pet peeves I have with other sites is the "no mentioning the competition" rule. I still have my neopets account on hand...<br />
<br />
I tend to avoid the forums on Neopets, and stick to outside forum communities made for the purpose. I find the Neopian Times Writers' Forum and Neocolors to be one of the better places to talk about neopets (and Subeta!).

Nice one. XD<br />
Even if I don't play on any other petsites anymore. o_O' I don't like Neopets anymore since they changed their site layout so drastically and since they got this "clothes for pets" feature sigh x_x'<br />
Subeta rocks. Even with some of the glitches that appear every now and then o.o At least it's not impossible to reach a goal here.

Nerpets lol. XD All though it is nice being able to say a pet site with out having to worry about the "YOU MENTIONED A PET SITE" thing coming up. ^^;
Wow. This was certainly unexpected. I can't say it really effects me either way, since I can honestly say I have no interest in discussing 'Nerpets' with anyone here. Subeta replaced that as soon as I joined, and I've had no interest in going back since. Especially not with the bloated, bug-eyed, disgustingly child friendly art they have now.

WOOO! I only get on Neo for my dailies and to zap my labrat but otherwise subeta is hands down the most entertaining, best site I've been on so far. It makes the hours at work pass by quickly. And look, I can say the words booty and sucks without getting iced. Huzzah!
Subeta has been my favourite site for some time now, but Neopets was my first. If I hadn't found Neo, I probably wouldn't have found Subeta. ^^ It's great that we can discuss other sites now. Rescreatu and Etta both allow it, and I've never seen it get too out of hand at either site.
Frankly Neopets is the place to go when you're bored out of your mind on a saturday afternoon and want mind numbing "Fun" Since there are so many flash games. I love the forums here, the sense of community and just... The way I can speak my mind with out having to word things in a way so no one comes up saying things like "OMG YOU POSTED A RULE, HARASSMENT"<br />
<br />
It's too serious over there, and riddled with rules that aren't written any where. "Oh Btw, you can't insult TNT or tell them they aren't gods." (I was suspended twice for it.) and yet other folks get away with listing alcohol names, insulting others and stalking. Yea, way to go eh?<br />
<br />
So I chat here and do everything I can.. But when I grow bored I play some NQ2 because I am seriously addicted.

I think people are being needlessly worried. Rescreatu and misticpets both allow discussion of other pet sites, and I'm sure there are other sites out there that do as well, and I've rarely seen it getting out of hand or other sites being constantly talked about.<br />
<br />
I doubt we're really supposed to be running around flaming other pet sites, though I could be wrong about that <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" /> I know it is tempting sometimes <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_raspberry.gif" border="0" />

Okay.. I'm better now.. mostly.. Thank you for giving us back some of our constitutional rights.

YAY I can talk about neopets now and not worried about getting banned. X3 Thank you! I love Neopets and Subeta just as much. =3
Hahaa, there are LOOOTS of other petsites besides Neo. Rescreatu, Ataria, Misticpets, Nutrinopets, Chibipets... and I play them all. <br />
<br />
Well, not Rescreatu so much.<br />
<br />
All that aside, I approve of this rule change, but I can forsee it becoming a source of flames because, for some reason, people get really damn protective of their petsites.

As other have said before me... Wow. It is funny that this should come about just now.. I was JUST thinking the past couple days about something.. My youngest daughter still plays on Neo sometimes, and has been collecting her advent stuff over there... I USED to be a seriously addicted Neopet player, until the infamous pet redraw.. that was it for me. The other night my daughter was logging into her account and after her password, she was asked to type in a security code.. I had never seen it before.. it was just a series of letters that were displayed that you had to type.. like those you see in various places when you sign up for something so they know it is a real person not an autobot or something.. anyway.. THAT is what got me to thinking.. if it were a bit easier on neopets to make points and to restock and such, maybe they wouldn't have such a terrible time keeping people out of other peoples accounts. Like if you could make 500K and up in a day easily, like here, people wouldn't be trying to find hundreds of ways to steal other peoples accounts!! I hope it never gets that way here!! I love subeta!! And I never thought I would leave neopets, but here I am and I will never go back!! <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Nerpets. HAHAH. XD<br />
<br />
I only still go on there for my buddies. :3 And my guild. Hee. But Subby > Neo all the way. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" /> After they changed the layout, it just.. agh. Fell all down hill. Subeta forever~! ^^

While I don't care to discuss other places here (if I were into them, I'd be there; I'm here for Subeta), it's very big of you to have changed this rule. Well done!
i was also a member of few other pet site but laft em for subeta...guess i was more interested in subeta then any other pet sites! lol
This pleases me. I think permitting debates lends this site so much more sensibility and feels more adult. Nothing screams kids' site like placing spurious taboos.
Subeta rocks even if i do play other petsights the atmosphere here is so much nicer thank you staff and HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!
I think this may be a bad idea. I can see people being warned and not knowing precisely what they said that constituted a warning...
Wow, looking back I can't believe how much I loved neo back in the day. X_x And looking back, I can't believe how lucky I was to discover sites other then Neo. I remimber I liked Neo until I became old enouth to go on forms. Oh, the harrassment! xD

I, as others do, have mixed feelings about this decision. Although I advocate the ability to speak openly on the forums, I still have misgivings about allowing such a thing at this time. Perhaps it is the cynic in me, but I foresee a much more frustrating job for the UAs and minimods due to flaming, etc. of other sites and other users membership and actions on such sites.<br />
<br />
Do not get me wrong, I am glad people have a bit more freedom. I just happen to be a realist and considering the already harsh atmosphere on the forums lately, I can see precisely where this will most likely lead <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_sad.gif" border="0" /> I just hope people can contain themselves better than they have as of late, because losing this newly acquired freedom due to poor behavior will not be taken lightly by most users if it happens.

Ah, finally. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" /> I've always disliked that rule, and now it's gone. Someone said it's too easy to make items and sP, and it's better where it's a challange like on neo, but neo is also cluttered, infected with ads, and really... no, I just really dislike it these days. I like that you don't have to be on subeta 24/7 in order to get by, I don't have time to devote myself enough to just gain np for example, and I just love subeta to pieces for so many reasons. The friendlyness of the users here, the fact that people don't hog their items and sit on them but actually are very generous with give-aways, so forth.<br />

Thank you!! I had wondered when ASK KEITH had mentioned it a few times! HEck most of us left neo and came here and havent went back... ( okay except times of lag..)
Haha.<br />
Now I can complain about neopets here. Yay for rants. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />

I love this change, but only because it makes us all feel freer, not because I actually want to even mention any other sites. The second I checked out Subeta my Neopets days were over for good. Really, I haven't even checked back since. And thats saying something considering I was on Neo for seven years. So thank you for giving us this freedom, and the freedom not to use it. xD I lurve you Subeta. <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_heart.gif" border="0" />
Although it is sort of a random change, it deserves a big change! This freedom will set Subeta above other pet sites even more, for some people. I know it will for me, if that's possible! It's already my top ;D But it is a silly rule. I mean... what's so wrong with talking about something?
Bothers me not - I may be a member of other sites but don't visit them and I don't come here to waste time talking about them <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_grin.gif" border="0" />
The only sites I like are subeta and misticpets, but Subeta is bar none the best pet site around. This is just another example why!!! I love Subeta to pieces!!! <img src="http://images.subeta.org/smilies/6398_emoticon_smile.gif" border="0" />

Can I suggest possibly a special board in the forums for talking about other pet sites? I left neopets for a reason and really would prefer not to have to hear about it all the time. I applaud the fact that you allow it now, but I think it may get out of hand and just suggest perhaps a special place for it.
Wow indeed! This is really big of you Keith. And I agree 100% with this change and the reason behind it. I think be able able to engage in some intelligent discussion about what it is that people like and don't like about other pet sites can only strengthen Subeta if your willing to listen. And I think it will make people even more interested in pet sites overall.<br />

Agreed. It's actually a fantasy of mine that all of the pet sites out there would start working together allowing the players to move pets, items and currency freely between sites. Even though Subeta is my main site I still enjoy doing things at Neopets, Powerpets, Marapets, Nutrinopets, Kenopets, Herupets and Elyzeria.
