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.

April 1st, 2003

In 2003, Neopets was supposed to go through a radical style change, transforming the site into Neopetz! This would mean Neopoints would no longer exist, and everything (including the Hidden Tower) would be free. The layout of the site would change and there would be tour guide named Nick Neopia.
