I'm part of an LJ community of artists. A friend of mine is after an item for her gallery which I just happen to have (Valentines Day Ring). I open my neomails to organise a trade with her and instead I get this:
Quote:
Will u plz give me u'r Ruki?
Stupidly, I decided to ignore it and continue setting up my trade.
Second neomail:
Quote:
HAY! I'm talking 2 u, squidbrain!
I don't respond.
Third neomail:
Quote:
I want u'r Ruki! NOW!!1!!!11
I roll my eyes, forward the neomail to my colleague and we snicker a bit about the persistance of youngsters who don't have manners nor are able to spell. Trade goes through without a hitch.
Fourth Neomail:
Quote:
U'r Ruki is awesome and cool and...(etc, etc, etc). I want her. I'll pay you 100NPs for her
I finally respond to the idiot in what little French I know (and providing a rough translation), saying that if they did not kindly back off and leave my precious pets alone, they would simply be staring down the barrel of a freeze-ray courtesy of the Neopets Team.
Final Neomail:
Quote:
FINE! I'll find someone else's Ruki to buy! X( U r an idiot! U'll regret this!11!!1!
About ten minutes later, my friend neomails me and says the idiot who harrassed me is frozen for attempting to buy Neopets from their owners.
I've since closed Neomails for the stupidity I encounter (but if you'd like to be Neopals, just PM ^^), so yeah. Don't think I'll be opening those lines again for a bit >>;
