Ok so I'm new to this site, and I was just wondering, how points are earned here. Help is greatly appreciated.
You can earn points by posting (on point per post) or by donating to the site or by winning some random contests that are occasionally held.
I read you gain them when you post or you can donate. Um...I'm not sure how else. Probably from adding programs.
Hi , there! Welcome You get 1 point for every non spam post you make you can turn these points into programs, each program requires a different amount of points. You can get points for donating to neofriends if you feel you would like the programs quicker. IF you need any help with anything, please please please dont struggle, pm me or another member and we will be try our best to help you out. ( To pm people, click the bottom left of this or any post) (pm: means to send a message)
Also, if you contribute to the site and make guides, you will also be rewarded with points. The more in-depth guide, the better! Oh, and btw, if you ever need to know something about the site, just click that huge link in my siggy
Thanks again. What kind of guides are accepted here? Restocking, sniping and other things like that? And if I want to help people out and make one, where would I enter it? Thanks in advance.

Basically any type of guide is welcomed here Oh, but make sure you read the whole guide (in siggy). It tells you when, why, and what to write a guide about. Technology Guides: tech-guides-f94/ Neopets Games: neopets-games-f79/ Neopets Cheats: neopets-cheats-f80/ Neopets Information: neopets-information-f82/ Other Neopets Guides: other-guides-f81/ Neopets Guides in General: neopets-guides-f22/ Programming Guides/Codes: code-snippets-tutorials-f15/
Thanks, and I completely understand the plagirising rule, to me that's a given. I've been playing neopets for a long time though, and I believe I can provide a fairly good restocking or sniping guide. But that might already be offered here.
Thnk you soo much, I'll definetly look throgh that Also this is kind of off topic, but it's kind of surprising to see how many people actually cheat on neo xD, not that I'm concerned, after all that's why I'm here.
Plagiarism is very important to avoid . I'm sure you'll be able to share a lot of great tips about legit RSing and other stuff! If you feel the guides here about the topic isn't thorough enough, feel free to write another one. But make sure it's not the same information all the way through Well, the most important thing here @ NF is to have fun! *parties* EDIT: Noticed your double-post...try to avoid those and edit (also included in guide)
Ok, thanks a lot Well, the most important thing here @ NF is to have fun! *parties* --x-- Lol, I can definetly agree with that :yup:
Ohh srry if I'm bugging you guys, but one more question before I leave I've noticed that I'm a newbie, how is that changed? Does it change through time, or is it also the nuber of posts?
Im not sure how many, i will try and find out, but your newbie status is dictated by how many posts you make Newbie Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Level 4 Level 5
Ok thank you I can find out how many on my own, you don't have to worry about it. Well I have to go, thank you soo much for your great help everyone.
