Yeah i'm pretty pissed off. What a horrid thing for them to do.
After they pretty clearly stated that they would be ignoring anyone complaining about the NC mall, they put this in there:
I suppose you could see it as funny, I just see it as arrogant personally.
"Show your dislike for NC by giving us $50! *gigglesnort*"
I'm over my avid hatred for NC, but this is just too far kids. Seriously.

As an actual wearable, it looks quite good - it flaps occasionally, and is actually legible. And given that it's $50, it's quite clear it's a tongue-in-cheek thing people aren't actually meant to buy (the title of the section being "Items No One Would Ever Want To Buy, Seriously" is also a subtle hint).
I wouldn't mind a pro-NC flag, since the mall is still not the first thing I think of when I see the acronym

Hee, I think it's amusing. I bet they do sell one or two, though...
There is also an "I Heart NC Flag".
Aww, so nice to know TNT appreciate us

Well, this topic confused the heck out of me for a little while. I'm on top of things now, though. ;P
If I were still playing Neopets actively, I'd gather up a bunch of the "I Heart NC Flag" items as possible. ^_~

Too bad the I <3 NC flag has a scorchio on it ;_;
Yes, when I see NC, the first thing I think of is hardly NeoCash. Honestly, I could care less about the Neopets Mall. NC = Us. So reading a topic that says "Down With NC" instantly brought me back to Jazzy's april fool's joke e_e

Actually, I've never thought of it as being "Neocolours Community", just an abbreviated form of Neocolours.

Ah, sometimes I call it "The NC", isn't that the LJ name too? "The Neocolours" sounds a bit weird, which is why I assumed the C was for community.
Anyway, about the sign, I think it's quite a funny item, but it does seem quite tongue-in-cheek towards the people who really don't like NeoCash.

They should've chosen another name for their money making scheme so it doesn't get easily confused with neocolours when abbreviated.
Like NeoCoins, or NeoCredits. No, wait...

NeoMoney? That would work. O NeoPesos. That's almost like NeoPets even.

Man, I thought for a second that TNT was sick of our bitching and made a flag dissing us. ._.;; Thankfully, it's something different.
