Neopian Rants

[anqi]

Hee Hee... We like neopets; but, there are some things that piss us off. We can't bitch all we want on the Neopets website; or, we would get frozen... Some of us don't want to clog our own personal journals with neopets bitching; so, we post it here.

This community will only be viewable by members. This will keep the little kiddie eyes safe as any language is allowed here. If you get offended easily, don't join. If you want to have a bitchfest about something related to neopets, and don't want to hold anything back... This is the place for you.

Ooh... heathielea wishes to maintain some sort of order, so there has to be a few rules...

• APPROVAL: All post made to this community must be approved. This is to help the community curb any drama that can be caused by overly offensive, off topic, or other inappropriate entries. If your entry is rejected, we will include a reason as to why it was rejected.
  
• CONTENT: Anything that is a rant towards Neopets goes. This does not mean you can share amusing things to display the stupidity of many Neopians out there. This community is for rants only. Please feel free to share your amusing stories with one of the many other Neopet communities out there, such as soupfaerie. Any non-rant posts will be rejected. If we are not sure if your "rant" is actually a "rant," we will reject the entry and ask that you clarify your annoyances.
  
• BE THOUGHTFUL: Put some thought into your rant. Be clear about what you dislike and state is in a way that gets the point across without creating any excess drama. Simple can be good in ranting; however, being simple can be just as bad. For example, don't just say you "hate neopets," get into detail about what you dislike. Overall, a well written paragraph will be more respected than a one sentence rant.
  
• CONFIDENTIAL: What is stated here, STAYS HERE. People should have the right to bitch about anything they want without any fear of people coming back to complain. If we see people not respecting another's privacy, we will ban them from the community. The ONLY way you can share what a person has said is if you have their permission first.
  
• RESPECT:Try to be respectful of another ranter's opinion. People might have very strong opinions; but, there should be never a reason to attack another community member. Remember, everyone is entitled to their opinions. Everyone is also entitled to share their opinions if they do not agree. If you do not agree, think before you speak. You need to be sure to word your opinions in a way that is not attacking them. In no way will we allow people to personally attack another member for their thoughts. Being overly sarcastic can be considered a personal attack.
  
• INSULTS: Insults on a specific person are not allowed. This also goes for specific people in the Neopets Team. Entries that are insults directed at a specific person will not be allowed. We will reject those entries and ask that you become more "vague" about who you are ranting about. Insults posted as replies to entries will also not be tolerated. This community was created to be better than that.
  
• DUPLICATES: Please do not submit entries that are along the same topic of entries that have already been submitted that day. We will begin to reject any rants that start to become overly redundant in topic.
  
• ADVERTISING/SHOWING OFF: This community is not for advertising or for people to show off their work(s). This is a community for ranting about things that annoy us. Please keep it as that.
  
• CAUTION: Don't ask us to report any people to the NPT unless you can provide sound, undisputable proof that someone is doing something against Neopet T&C. And, do not report people just because another person asks you to. You must use your own judgement before doing anything that someone asks you to do.
  
• TELL: Do tell your Neofriends that have LJs about this community!
  
• MODERATORS: heathielea & starchasing
  

Whatever your bitching, have fun.
