4/20/2020 Marapets Game
Marapets is a complete RIP-OFF of Neopets. They have Marapoints, pets that are like NeoPets but are cheesyer and pretty much everything is like Neopets.
Marapets is mobile friendly. Switch to Desktop Mode. All of the games that are FREE to play are listed below. You may have found some of these places already while you Explore the virtual worlds of Marada. Each feature will give you bonus MP, items, pet stats or currency. Video Game / Marapets Marapets is a free virtual pet site, similar to Neopets. It started out as a 'guild' created by 14-year-old Ian, called 'Maraqua' within Neopets. When he made it, he had no intentions of creating a pet site.
Con's (bad things) Neopets1. An annoying new layout2. If you don't participate in a plot, you feel left out3. Sometimes it can be hard to get Neopoints4. Hard Battledome characters5. Sometimes unfair admins6.
It's getting more commercialized7. Annoying Ad'sComments to the above.1. I actually like the new layout.
It makes it much easier to RS when the game loads in the same window.2. Well if one chose not to take part in an event, i dont see why they should feel their need to complain. Every decision in life has its consequences. And when one choses not to be a part of it so be it.
But just dont come running to mommy when missing out of all the fun.3. Like everything else in life, nothing gets served on a silver plate. One must work before enjoying.4. The same as #3.5. I can agree on that, but then again it can be hard for an admin to see whats truth and whats not. Dont judge them, they're doing the best they can. And with all those scammers roaming, its simple just natural that some get caught in the line of fire.
I feel sorry for all those who got iced without having done anything wrong. But then again - the admin is people like all of us, and i highly doubt that any of us can go through life with out making any mistakes.6+7. I would rather have more ads than pay X a month. Hosting a site aint free.
Nothing in the world is free. If TnT removed all ad's, then where should the money then come from? Nah i prefer it this way.Conclusion - i can only agree partly on # 5. The rest i strongly disagree with.And concerning marapets - I've been there once in 2 minutes. Then i closed the window and went straight to neopets. Marapets is probably one of the most newbie site i have ever seen.
Bad games, bad graphic, ugly pets. Neopets, for most of the pros, although I do disagree with a lot of the cons. Zafia listed some of the points, but I feel like going more in-depth because. I have a tendency for doing that.An annoying new layoutNeopet's new layout is the one thing about Neopets I think I would defend to the death.
The fact is, the old layout just wasn't good anymore. When Neopets started and smaller screen resolutions were common, before web accessibility became a big deal, and before HTML upgraded into XHTML and the like it was, at most, an alright layout. But coding, like everything else on the internet (and world of technology, for that matter), is not static. It changes, and Neopets layout needed to, as well. They new layout is more accessible to prospective players, more professional, and overall a better layout.
I can safely safe that had Neopets not changed their layout I wouldn't be playing, because the sheer amount of design-related problems would have annoyed me to no end.Plus, if a web designer submitted Neopets old layout to their boss or client now-a-days, they would get laughed at, and then probably fired/taken off the job. Maybe not in 2000, but certainly now.Now, I'm not saying their new layout is perfect, but it is better than their old one.If you don't participate in a plot, you feel left outWouldn't that be your own fault for choosing not to participate? I don't see how this can be a con held against the whole of Neopets.Sometimes it can be hard to get NeopointsThere is a variety of ways to get Neopoints, for a variety of players. While I do admit sometimes game ratios are obnoxiously low, TNT themselves has stated that upping the 1,000NP limit would be murder to the economy, and the economy already is suffering. However, for the casual player, it is not that hard to play a half-hour's worth of games and gain a few thousand Neopoints.
Beyond that, restocking, and the stock market are choices. If making Neopoints were any easier it wouldn't help anything-it would just shoot up inflation faster than it already is.Hard Battledome charactersAnd easy Battledome challengers. Neopets has been an active site for nearly ten years, and with the Lab Map it's not that uncommon to see high-level pets. If they didn't have hard BD challengers, then people would be complaining about how it's too easy. I will admit they need more of a variety of one-player challengers (especially for those of us that don't play two-player. Like me), but I wouldn't say that the challengers are too hard or too easy.Sometimes unfair adminsNeopets is a large website, people make mistakes, and I don't think there is nearly as many mistaken freezings as people claim.
No one ever wants to admit to being wrong, which is probably why there are so many people claiming TNT wrongly froze them.That being said, I do think it's ridiculous how uber-careful you have to be not to get frozen or warned.It's getting more commercialized and Annoying Ad'sNeopets is a game, but it's also a business. They have servers to upkeep, bandwidth to pay for (and I don't even want to think of how much bandwidth costs for them), and a slew of employees (from web designers, to games developers, to artists, to marketing executives, to moderators) who I highly doubt work for anything near minimum wage. People complain about the NC Mall and customization, but that probably took away from another slew of ads they would have otherwise had to have added to keep Neopets up, so it's not like they aren't trying to think of how this effects the players.Also, I don't care how silly people think they are, the offline products are fun.loves the plushies, and has a boyfriend who plays the TCG-Plus, Marapets is just fugly, and their layout is ridiculously cluttered.
I also like cute things. Neopets gives me cute.
