    Is there no war? Or we don't know that yet?

    its most likely over, since the news said this a few days back:

    so no, unfortunately there is no war, and this plot was officially the worst one in neopets history.

    Ouch, let's not be so harsh on Neo. They opened a new place to explore, at least one or two good games, a few shops, an avatar, (possibly) a theme, and (possibly) a new colour pet! So it wasn't so bad, maybe just not quite in your taste

    Also, I've heard that the reason there aren't wars anymore is because TNT is unable to handle the demands on their server, since so many people would be on for so much longer sending so much more data... so much

    alright, the molten color and moltara in general is good, I'll admit. But the games are just rip offs of old games like moltara run= volcano run II
    and to add on that, all you had to do in the plot was read the comic, click around and then beat a certain score in games + do that balancing thing. overall wasn't really much, the sloth plot and previous ones were much more complex

    I certainly agree, but I think this was better than Altador Mini-Plot, and I personally liked it more than that one whose name evades me atm

    I guess.. but really the altador plot is for a different purpose in my mind. Its always open so new players can get a feel for a plot. Really its been a while since we've had a war, I think we're due.

    It's still one of the worst plots ever released. Unless you can think of one that is worse, not counting mini plots (eg PPL mini plot). Even the altador plot was better.

    And one of the reasons TNT said that there won't be any wars is because of the unfair advantage it places on people who put the time and effort into training their pets and getting a decent set, who obviously do better in those wars.

    I've never seen them state that either but if you think about it, it makes sense. They have to think about the neopian community as a whole and what would be enjoyable/fair to the majority because you can't please everyone.

    Well there won't be any full out wars, but I would expect future plots to have at least some fighting. There wasn't any in the aota plot, when there easily could have been.

    but at the same time they do the opposite of looking out for the community.. its hard to explain. but if people have spent time training, why not allow them to fight? but anyways I was ready to fight some kind of magma monster..

    I agree they put the battle dome feature in the game so they should at least use it, some people will always score better then others so I don't see what the issue is.
