NeoBoards

Various smaller communities of players develop on the NeoBoards. Some boards are more popular than others. Discussions on these message boards must be Neopets-related and may not involve topics such as dating and romance, politics, and religion. 24/7 moderation is performed by paid Neopets staff members. Users can help moderate the site by reporting messages they believe are inappropriate or offensive. A filter also prevents users from posting messages with profanity or lewd content, though the filter cannot capture typographical errors intentionally placed by spammers and scammers and some questionable posts still appear. There is private premium NeoBoard which only premium users have access to. You are also denied access if the age you have given to neopets is an age under 13 and you do not have parental permission to play the site.

Periodically, new boards will appear and disappear as new plots are developed. Once said plot is complete, the board is taken away, usually after a couple of weeks.

On the NeoBoards, players can enter 'neoHTML' (Neopets HTML) in their Chat Preferences to use a font on the NeoBoards that is not the default font. These fonts can become very elaborate; designs such as a piano keyboard and a Mootix (a Neopets petpetpet) are shows of players' creativity.

NeoMail

NeoMail is a personal in-game communication system, much like regular email. Players can write messages to other players or make "neofriends", to whom they can send items from their inventory or make private auctions for. For many reasons, neomail messages are monitored, and players cannot write to another player who is under the age of 13. However, if the person under 13 has parental permission to play on the site, you are able to send them a neomail. Users may also block people who they do not want to come in contact with.

Neopets "censors" neomails, and disallows foul and/or inappropriatte language. If users include inappropriate language in neomail, it will not go through to the intended receiver, rather redirecting them to a page which explains why the nature of their neomail is unacceptable, and giving the option of going back to the neomail and fixing it.

Neopets also has a "limit" on the number of neomails that can be sent in a day, or more so, in a certain span of time. This is to prevent the slowing down of a server and spamming. The maximum of neomails users can store in their inbox is 100 and saved neomail in folders will save the neomail for 90 days. This is to make sure the database can handle the amount of users and mail.
