LOL AT JEALOUS PEOPLE XD

You have to question how long the new owner has have the pet and did she know the pet was nominated or had a 'yes' option. Some people might be too happy that they just got the pet that they let stuff like that unnoticeable. Alright, yes, the owner had an option but it doesn't mean she was consciously aware of it. Its not always someone's first thought when getting a new pet.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

you people complain too much.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Wow, okay the last few pets have been a total disaster. I get that the first time it'd be kinda funny but by now I'd expect the admins to at least be checking the profiles before the pets are actually featured

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This is great. Every time I refresh there are like 10 new comments XD Anyway, I don't think anyone should really be MAD at the owner, but then again I don't think anyone really is. Just a little annoyed, which is understandable And it's great how people come in, attitude guns blazing like what they have to say hasn't already been said a million times before and is no longer relevant XD And and, saying "GOD WHY DON'T YOU JUST CONGRATULATE HER AND GET OVER IT?" What has she done to earn congratulations? Fact of the matter is, it's pretty disappointing when blank pets win. I haven't even tried to make any of my pets pretty as I don't really care about this part of the site, but I'm still kinda pissed that these blank pets keep winning. It's not fair to everyone who HAS worked hard and loses, to absolutely nothing. Lol

i was just checking the news for the may collection like many others, but this was almost (almost) as good.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh you guys,

There's a topic in Site Feedback about this stuff, you know.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Still fresh on this site but wtf, one of mine was nominated? One from a friend, but, still, she never had anything SUPER~ fancy done for his page. XD Wtf.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sorry, but we are relying on the hearsay of ONE user who has no screenshot or ticket or ANY proof that her pet actually glitched. I would be just as inclined to believe that she accidentally clicked the "no", but then forgot the "submit" button. It happens, we're human.

Nobody else has ever complained about their settings mysteriously switching back and forth.. therefore, arguing out of our asses about how this is a complete glitch with no user responsibility is ridiculous.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Also, if no one's done it before, I bet all of you are checking your pet nominations right now.....

Also who in their right mind nominated one of mine ? 'pulls her out' What ? No.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Guys relax! It's not like this pet will even be on this account next week!

Oh gosh I know xD I come check the news to see if the collection is out yet, and I'm met with a pet spotlight with 100+ comments and people flipping out. Lol

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Posting in the greatest comments section ever. HI MOM!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Oh no, I understand. There's nothing that can be done, obviously; I was just stating this in a response to 'IT WAS A GLITCH!!' or 'LAY OFF MEAT IT WASN'T HER FAULT!' because it COULD have been prevented, so technically it is partially her fault. Of course, mostly it's the glitchy as hell spotlight system, but I'm just sayin'.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Why doesnt the pet spotlight take a break while the kinks are worked out? This is getting a tad bit ridiculous.

At least the name is cute There's a positive!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

This would be an easy problem to avoid if people would have the sense to remove the nominations if they adopt out/abandon/store/switch around their pets all the time. |D

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

no one is bitching at the user, they're bitching at the system. don't h8 the player h8 the game

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I knew this Spotlight thing would cause drama. Unneeded drama at that. Grow up. Its a game. o.O So much anger and drama doesn't need to be created because of a GAME. Stop crying and move the Hell on.

Yet again, it's all too funny. Keep bitching. You're only making yourselves look bad.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't really know how the spotlight system works, as I haven't worked on my pets enough to really get involved. I've seen saying how her pet won even though she checked the box or whatever. So, imo, there's some kind of glitch or something? Because if she checked the box, why did her pet still win?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I think the people flipping out over people being upset with this are more serious business than the people being upset about it. lol

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

It feels like pet spotlight is inventing new ways for the ball to be dropped on a nearly daily basis. The idea that staff review the winning pet before it goes up on the news page is a great one, I think.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Ah yeah no, it's cool, I understand. Still, admittedly while it could have been preventable, it doesn't help too much the people saying what MEAT COULD have done.

I'm just hoping that staff will implement some more cautionary measures so that things like this don't happen again!

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

WTF is the drama going on?

Ok the cache messed up. This shouldn't have won. Blah Blah blah.

Get over it.

ALL NOT FINISHED PETS NEED TO BE TURNED off FROM BEING NOMINATED.

How hard is that?

Moving on.... WTF is the new collection?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

*Caring

Instead of carrying

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I think we've already been over that most people who are upset about this have already won the spotlight at least once.

Also I'm pretty sure most people aren't ANGRY at meat, they are angry at the spotlight itself. Could Meat have prevented this? Yes. I don't see how saying 'you could have prevented this by doing x' is attacking anyone. Then again I haven't looked through all of this clusterfuck, so maybe someone has.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Okay everyone I really need someone to explain this to me.

Multiple people here seem to be convinced that the owner of the pet has NO RESPONSIBILITY WHATSOEVER and OMG THIS IS A GLITCH and how DARE we not congratulate because we are all sooooo bitter about not winning 2 days in a row.

Question.

Is there a fucking demon hidden on the preference page that blocks your "no" choice or otherwise switches your pets preferences back and forth?

No?

Then, logically, THE USER HAS SOME RESPONSIBILITY to de-nominate their pets if they are blanked out.

WHY are there even two sides to this argument?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Dear lord guys pull your panties out of your ass and get over it. It's not that big of deal. (Though with everything that's going on here you'd think this being the world ending to some people)

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sure it happened twice already, but I'm sure that staff has more important shit to do than sift through Pet Spotlight nominees. :T

Oh snap! Neopets has hit subeta People care online pets and problems more then RL problems. Come on people life is short give up carrying about the little shit.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Honestly, if pet spotlight isn't something you worry about, you probably don't think about taking it out of consideration for the win.

Personally, I think the default should be "NOT ELIGIBLE"...and if you want it to be nominated, then you should have to change the settings, not the other way around. THEN, if the pet isn't worthy, you can blame the owner and the nominator.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I have a feeling that a lot of the bitching is spawning from people wanting their pets to win. If so, people need to lighten the hell up. It's a game. Hell, Kappa has been nominated for what seems like forever, do I care if he wins? Not a chance, what matters is that I'm happy with him.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Lol, I just had a thought... With no staff member previewing these submissions before they go live, it's not going to be long before we get some asshole who gets nominated and accepted and then changes their pet profile to nothing but goat.se or tub girl or something.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I'm pretty sure someone mentioned like 5 times that their pet still won even though she removed the spotlight option.

Quote:

; border: 1px solid ; font-family: georgia; font-size: 10;"> I don't know if this is a glitch or what BUT I don't think even turning off nomination for your pet will take them out of the queue if they've already been accepted as a potential winner. I know this because my pet, Fabiynn, won Spotlight a week or so ago and I had turned off his nomination setting maybe a week or two before he had won. Evidently he hadn't been pulled from the queue even so.

Kinda confused as to why you're STILL GETTING MAD AT MEAT?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

it was just a mistake. plz 2 be calming down now

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sorry, couldn't resist. ;P But no really, I get complaiing but less about directly complaining/bugging Meat. Stuff happens. The system should be adjusted/actual nominations checked, maybe we shouldn't have a DAILY pet Spotlight, blah blah, haven't been here long enough to know how often this happens. xD Even if this is apparently the second week. Shit happens. Move on. c:

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

... Am I the only one who thinks checking out a pet for possible nomination after fairly recent adoption is an easy oversight? This is just kind of ridiculous. I mean yes, everyone has the right to complain but... I just feel bad for the recent spotlight winners anymore.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Reserrection - Oh, I know! I've lol'd at some of the winners before. And then cried. D;

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

well, idk. this is the pet spotlight, after all, and we're on a pet site.

perhaps I am alone in thinking this has some degree of importance?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Go for 200 comments! Lulz. xD;;

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

yeah, cause i totally wish to be a prommie.

wtf?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

EXACTLY, people would bitch if there is nothing on the site to do. So of course the staff is worrying about that more then freaking spotlight crap. Personally I rather have something on the site to do like an event or w/e. Working on the pet lookup only goes so far and it's apparent if people don't like it they bitch. Not saying this spotlight for example, but there have been some P-I-T-I-F-U-L winners before. I mean spelling mistakes and gender swaps all to boot.

I completely agree with this actually. I think that /every/ night is far to often, soon enough almost everyone will have pet spotlights.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I lol'd. A lot.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Sry you don't get to join the prommies until you stop relying on your friends to back you up.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

I don't care about the drama, I just wanna see some nice profiles again. )': How come it only took like an hour or so to take White down in that glitch a while ago, but nobody can control re-picking when this sort of thing happens? Glitch-control would be cool, especially since there's tons of pets in the queue, and it would be nice to see some of the finished ones get exposure instead of an "oops" pet.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

by the way, wtf is a prommie?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Also.. wtf does prommies and this have to do with each other? Last I checked some pet with a blank profile won, not Jessyta's MORE then deserving pet ):

Pls to be not getting my hopes up thx.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

ily kelly.

else LOL.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

THESE COMMENTS ARE AMAZING. LOL.

And it's NOT the owner's fault whatsoever. seriously. they don't deserve any of this ridiculous blame.

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

Yeah, I understand where you're coming from and I'll give you that you're the more logical of the people posting on here trying to be Subeta vigilantes/trolls. Anyway, I suppose it could have been a glitch but again I'm pretty sure Meat didn't uncheck Thea, so I don't think it applies here?

December 31, 1969, 7:00 pm by

So much drama over pixels! LORD SAVE US.
