Cheat Monster, being a little overzealous? O_O

[mrblobby1984]

Yes well obviosely i didnt belive it when i saw it.

I am going to send it into the editorial aswell
p.s if i get it again whilst playing i will take another screenshot

[Chao]

This is probably just a glitch that people get occasionally, remember when people got the "Your score is being reviewed" message, even though their score was nowhere near high enough for a trophy?

[matchbow]

That's weird. i have a screenie of 500+ points and as far as i know, i haven't gotten the cheat monster. And i doubt someone would fake that since it's not such a pround accomplishment

[mrblobby1984]

Yes well i mean i have a high score of like 600 and something and now im getting really worried and concerned about getting frozen especially becuase i am premium

Personally, I think it is one of Neopets' cruel little jokes. I don't think it was used to say you were cheating--shoot, they'd just freeze you if they thought that. Instead, I think that they were trying to scare you bad enough so that you would never, ever think of cheating. In other words, a really mean, cruel random event. After all, it never actually says that you cheated. It just gives the warning "Cheat and be devoured."

Sort of like that dumb random event that says all of your neopoints are gone, all of your pets are gone, yadda, yadda. . .oh, wait is was just a bad dream.

hmmm perhaps its just a radom event like ou said warning people not to cheat on games (not that you can anyway) perhaps they will tell us if enough people write in about it to the editorial
<hr>
Oh rite well i think the popup is just telling me not tpo cheat
its not nessacerily saying I CHEATED but its saying not to cheat in general

sorry for typos today

I notice you have a lot of windows open -- was your computer running slow when you played the game? A long time ago I got frozen for "cheating" on Volcano Run, when really my computer was old and slow and I'd been playing fair, but it was just slow enough that TNT thought I was using a program to make it that way (I got unfrozen later). I wouldn't worry too much about it, though -- I think they brought the cheat monster in instead of doing freezes. You didn't get any NP for that play, right?

[hydruxo]

I heard of another person who got the same pop up. Someone should send in a question to the editorial

[DraikNest]

I still think he looks cool though!!!!

*offtopic* To whomever it was, right click on the task bar, go to toolbars and hit Windows Media Player.... whenever you minimize WMP, it goes to that corner... pretty spiffy

That's not Adam...that's er, what's his name the programmer.

He also shows up for clicking the eye on Snowmuncher. And randomly in Brucy B slots, Trouble at the National Neopian and whichever other games he programmed. XD

Programmer's name is Olli o.o

Thanks Hydruxo.

Yeah, that's the one.

[RayGirl]

His name is Oliver, isn't it? It just appears as Olli in the Muahahaha level in HatIC. Although in the About Us page he appears as The Phantom Orange-Shirt Guy xD

Anyway, I think it's not a fake, it looks really true. It's like when you type cheat in the search bar, appears:

CHEATS ARE NOT ALLOWED ON NEOPETS

*DISPATCH ATTACK CHOMBIES*

- It's not like you were cheating, though.

Anyway, it was probably just a warning in general to scare you. I pretty much freaked when I saw the cheats-are-not-allowed thing in the search bar
