Another peeve I have is with regard to the Trading Post: people make up a junk lot and ask for faeries, codestones, paint brushes… Shyeah! I’ve just _got_ to have those Baked Beans, dude! Have you noticed some of your weapons not working? I don’t mean all of your weapons not working on occasion. I mean, do you have weapons (or abilities) that seem to _never_ work - they don’t even register in the Battledome when you use them? I sent a message to the Battledome address but never got a response. I have a Mad Clock that worked reliably for a while, then nothing. My Hawk Bracelet did nothing. I know there are some weapons that are supposed to fail on occasion - they miss or freeze - but at least the game tells you what’s going on. Oh, and if you go to [this guy’s site](http://petpages.neopets.com/~Geeko1717) it has more info about the books than you ever thought you needed, and it includes his theory of why your pets find some books boring and not others.
