I would:
1) Release a percentage healer and freezer for all Neopets species. You would have to do it in such a way that it didn't deflate the current healers and freezers too quickly, but they do need to be slowly deflated (or at least have cheaper options).
2) NOT bring back the sponsor links. Go though and make sure none of the removed ones pay out using the process_click links. Announce in a very obvious and unmistakable way, like on the news, that the links have been taken down and that anyone who comes up with clever new ways to access them will be frozen. Then start warning and suspending -- and freezing if the person persists. The way it is now it's not fair to players who are following the rules TNT laid out in the editorials. And there's no way the sponsor links should be brought back not all at once like they are now -- they're a horribly inflationary source of NP. I think we can all agree that inflation is a bad thing.
I mean, I know people liked them (and I found it handy, too, while they were up) but look at it this way: Only accomplished stockmarketers average out to 50k a day. (1 million a month is a big goal for stockmarketers and 50k a day works out to 1.5 million a month.) I was asking about profits from restocking on PPT the other day and it sounds like only very good restockers will make 50k in 30 mintues. (Something like 2-3 hours to make that much sounds closer to average.) Even really good gamers -- people who can do World Challenges -- don't usually make that much in a day, at least not without spending a lot of time playing the games. All these are people who have put in time and effort to get good at what they dot. It's not reasonable to expect to make that much money by clicking on links for 30 minutes.
OK, end rant. I like easy money as much as the next person -- it's why I play the stockmarket -- but the stockmarket still requires a lot of patience and some know-how. It's not hard or time-consuming once you get the hang of it, but it's not just free money.
3) definitely NOT make the Stock Market easier. The Stock Market is already easy. I'm always torn between spreading the word about the Stock Market and the awareness that the more people play it, the worse off the Neopian economy is and the greater the chance TNT will decide to scrap the system. The Stock Market is also an inflationary source of NP, although I think a much less dangerous one than the sponsor links -- comparatively few people play the Stock Market and of those even fewer make 25-50k a day off it. Still, from TNTs standpoint encouraging more people to play it is the last thing they want to do.
4) Linking accounts: very good idea. I'd like to see safe pet transfers between a user's own accounts. I'd also like to see it set up so that you can play games, go to Coltzan, etc. on any of your accounts: eg if you have 3 accounts you could play one game of Meerca Chase each on each of those accounts, but after that the Meerca Chase would read 3/3 plays on all your accounts. Sort of like the linked accounts were one giant account.
5) Make a system so battling could earn "points" or whatnot toward training, a good idea people are talking about on PPT right now.
6) De-herpes the purple pets.
7) Not announce things in the news until they're actually confirmed to work.
Hire some more people on the customer service end to look into freezings, etc.
9) Take another stab at making sure the rules are very clear. Monitor the fan boards and when a practice you want eliminated starts becoming popular -- like sponsor links or ImproveNeo -- set out in no uncertain terms that using them is against the rules. Then start warning and suspending people. Freeze people only when they persist in breaking the rules.
10) More redraws for Eyries.
11) Revamps for some of the older pets.
Hmm. Can't think of any more for now.
WAIT:
12) Five pets per account after a certain account age, as has already been mentioned.
13) Also as has already been mentioned, start slowly deflating some items (MP, transmogs, PBs) by increasing random events. Also start slowly increasing how many/often items of each particular rarity restock.
14) I also think it would be fun if more games gave out items instead of/in addition to small abounts s of NP, more like Subeta. However, instead of the way Altador, Skarl, Brightvale, Tombola, and Fishing work (only drawing from a small number of items which promptly deflate and become worthless) the games should draw from all the available items at a rate proportional to their rarity. I'd take that in place of increasing how often items restock, actually. It would be nice for there to be a way for people who don't like restocking to be able to make money selling items, and it wouldn't contribute to inflation.
