How is begging a scam?
Beggars try to say that they don’t have the time/ energy/ computer/ programs/ skills/ ability to play Neopets for themselves and earn their own items or NPs. Begging is really scamming because everyone on Neopets starts from the same place and has exactly the same opportunities as everyone else. How you take advantage of those opportunities is up to you. The “elite” and “rich” players started with the same Newbie pack that you and I did; they did not get an extra “boost” on their way. They got to where they are now through their own hard work and determination, and you can, too. But I’ve got a good reason… There are no “good reasons” to beg on Neopets. Sick pets, scammed users, personal funds/goals, friends’/family’s/own birthdays, user in the hospital/having an operation, or any other reason for wanting donations are not good enough reasons to ask for those things. If you want anything on Neopets, you can earn it.
