Your Neoboard Personality!


by indulgences

--------

I’ve written a special quiz that analyzes your Neoboard personality and how you handle yourself around the Neoboards. Questions include such varied topics as active pets, user lookups, NeoSignatures, and more! Who knew that so much of Neopian culture could be encompassed in just 20 questions about the Neoboards?

Have fun taking the quiz, and I hope you enjoy learning something new about yourself that you may not have known before! Keep track of how many a’s, b’s, c’s, and d’s you choose, and more importantly, have fun!

1. You have five different accounts. Which one do you mainly use for chatting?

a) Your main account. You do pretty much everything there!

b) Your prettiest side account. You want to show off your friendly nature.

c) Your rebellious side account. You want to show off your dark side.

d) Your worst side account. Cracking jokes and acting like a n00b is funny.

2. Right before you start chatting on the Neoboards, you go to Neoboard Preferences and:

a) Change your avatar, because your mood changes from day to day.

b) Change your NeoSignature, because you have a new link for your siggy.

c) Change your NeoTitle, because you feel like having a special title today.

d) Don’t change a thing.

3. On the Neoboards, the active pet you choose to display is:

a) Your main pet. You worked hard on it; now it’s time to show it off!

b) Your “Boochi shield,” a pet that you don’t mind getting zapped Baby by Boochi.

c) Your “invisibility shield,” a pet that you don’t mind getting zapped Invisible by a random event.

d) Any old pet, it doesn’t matter.

4. You care about your account’s appearance, so you’re careful to:

a) Have a stunning NeoSignature that makes your posts unique.

b) Keep your pets happy, healthy, and well-fed, so they’re smiling on the Neoboards.

c) Have a really rare, painted, or expensively dressed active Neopet on display.

5. When you glance at someone’s active pet (under their username), you are most impressed by pets that are:

b) Have seven different board topics open in different tabs on your browser, while chatting on all of them.

c) Start a board topic of your own, just to chat with as many people as possible.

10. When something goes wrong on the Neoboards, such as someone being mean to you, you run crying to:

a) Your best Neofriend. Nothing heals a broken heart like sympathy from your friends!

b) Snarkie. She’s the resident den mother and answers everyone’s questions.

c) The Report button. Having the power to report someone brings some justice to Neopia!

11. When you see someone harassing another user, you:

18. When you encounter SPAM, you:

a) Click on it right away and read it. Hey, it might be amusing!

b) Roll your eyes and click on another board topic. No need to read something silly.

c) Add to it with a funny line or two of your own.

Here are your results!

Mostly A: The Popular User

You are a Popular User because you do all the things typical of a responsible, caring, but lighthearted Neopian citizen. You take care of your pets, you follow the rules, and you laugh at SPAM but you don’t add to it with irresponsible posts of your own. The Popular User is a considerate, mindful, and integral part of the happy and blissful nature of the Neoboards!

Mostly B: The Sweetheart User

You are a Sweetheart User because you love and appreciate other users for their genuine personalities, and because you’re always willing to look at the sunny side of life. You admire beautiful things and artistic accomplishments, and you are always willing to cheer people on towards their goals! The Sweetheart User is a sweet, kind, and nurturing part of the Neoboards who keeps order with a humane and sympathetic hand!

Mostly C: The Rebellious User

You are a Rebellious User NOT because you rebel against the Neopets website and the rules that are enforced there, but because you rebel against injustice and rude behavior from other users. You won’t hesitate to defend people on the losing side of an argument, and you hate it when people neglect their sad and crying pets. The Rebellious User is an active, thoughtful, and creative user who loves the Neoboards for the dynamic place that it is!

Mostly D: The Jaded User

You are a Jaded User because you’ve been cruising the Neoboards for far too many years. It’s hard to spark your interest because you have high standards about what you expect from other users and their accounts, and you’ve seen and heard too much to be impressed by much of anything. You tend to post the most sardonic responses on the Neoboards, and people appreciate your acerbic wit. The Jaded User is a meditative, laid back component of the Neoboards who keeps everyone’s egos running smoothly and in check!
