April Fools Jokes

Why this page?
Every year on April 1st The Neopets Team tries to pull everyone's leg by changing something to the site that is rather radical. For example in 2006 they told everyone they would have to start paying taxes for every page load. We decided to start making a log of TNT's April fools jokes, starting April 1st, 2007. From the years before 2007 we've tried to gather some information to give you insights in the older jokes.

With the navigation below you can go through the April Fools of previous years.

The Befriending Dome
This year for April Fools, Neopets claims to be releasing the Befriending Dome. This claims to be a place to make friends and be kind to one another.

Boy oh boy, it sure is a very exciting time in Neopia right now! We have decided to promote love and kindness throughout our beautiful lands, which has led us to introduce our all new Befriending Dome! Visit it now to improve your socialization skills, give out a few compliments and even earn new gestures as you improve! Also, I think we're all a little overwhelmed at the amount of gifts we have, well now you can actually gift them to other Neopians in the Befriending Dome! See if you have what it takes to reach the top ranks and earn the ultimate title�Best Friend! Since our Grand Opening of the Befriending Dome is here, we have decided to discontinue some of our Battledome items. But don't fret, we have found some fun new ways to use some of the best of the Battledome items! You can now use our Pink Squirt Flower to squirt some nicely fragranced perfume water at your friends or use one of the Scrolls to compliment and shower others with love! Don't miss out on all these opportunities to spread kindness, check out the Befriending Dome today! Are you a little intimidated by this new Befriending Dome? Not sure if your skills are quite ready to make any new friends yet? Well everyone has had these concerns in the past, so we have provided Strangers for everyone to practice and showcase their skills on! Don't wait, head on over and start making some life-long friendships!

The item has an option to equip for Befriending Dome. When you select that option you get, "Rhoanda thinks it's a great item for making new friends!" However, the item remains in your inventory.

Befriending Dome Fighting gets you nowhere. Violence breeds violence. But sadly, Neopians have never been offered an alternative way to test their mettle, display their skills or engage with competitors. Fight no more, for we are excited to announce the imminent arrival of the Befriending Dome! Reach out to strangers, strengthen your socializing skills and compete to see who is the best at making friends in this exciting new arrival to Neopia!
