One of the benefits of Premium membership (aside from doing away with the annoying banner ads that are increasingly superimposed over a good chunk of the page) is that you get occasional "Something Has Happened!" events. These usually take the form of winning a lottery ticket and more than half the time you get a random item, too. The least amount I've received was 650 NPs, and the most was 1500 NPs (I think. Could have been more.). Items are usually books and stamps and other goodies. Usually, I'll sell the items and get another 4,000-25,000 NPs. I have found a way to get those random events every day (or day and a half, depending on how much I'm online). Gather round and hear this ...  Most of the areas of the portal trigger a tracker. (Not the Games hiscores, though.) Everything entered in the "Favorites" module increments the tracker. The more you use the portal, the faster you get the random event. I haven't yet tracked what that magic number is. What I've done is put links to my dailies, my inventory, store, favorite places in Neopia, and my "15,000 a day" games in the Favorites area of the portal. And now I get random events just about every day! |

It seems that Random Events are more frequent on guild pages... I quite frequently get codestone RE's when I post there.

Haha, that's a funny one although that is off topic.  I think we have a Random Event thread floating around somewhere...

Well...that depends. Was it a random event, or a Something Has Happened? That's the title of this thread, so if it was a Something Has Happened event, wouldn't it go here?

This thread is about the special Premium random events. I thought we had a thread for posting of all random events but I can't seem to find it, hmmm...

I went back and read the original opening post, and it is about the premium events. But the title makes it sound like any "Something Has Happened" events could go here, so I can see where we got confused.
And I do think we have a thread somewhere for regular Something Has Happened events...but where did it go?

lol like so many other threads it probably wasn't posted in and is backed up into the pages. i think those who have been doing neopets for a few years just didn't post them much anymore but there was a thread like that at one time lol darn pant devil took it i bet!
