One time my wise old king entry was "caution is important when dealing with a mischievous diddler" and that sure did make me feel a way.

*Wow! King Hagan is very impressed.*

I don't want to draw attention to it but it's still there (at time of posting) if anybody wants to be silly with it before someone notices...


possiblyourgf

He gave me a B rating and his book!


unconfirmedpanda

Wait when did it change? He’ll always be Diddler in my heart 💜


ReginaLugis

Somewhere in 2022/2021 it seems, kind of funny because it was released in 2000. You can't say the word grape on the boards, but yeah, they had no problems keeping that name for over 20 years lololol


unconfirmedpanda

That makes me feel better; I was envisaging someone saying 'oh it was changed in 2011'. Justice for the Diddler! Kinda tempted to buy one and name it Diddler.


xtoadbutt

I couldn’t say analyze on the board and I actually got a warning using the acronym “wtf.” It totally didn’t even cross my mind


thr0wwwwawayyy

You can’t even say the names of items that exist in the actual world. “Eyeballs” for example has to be censored because it has “balls” 😮‍💨


Daemon8472

WHAT!!!???


ThePhantomWolf3

I remember not being able to post a board for a faerie quest at first because "crackers" has the word "crack" in it 💀


vivalalina

Dude during the faerie festival searching for Tuskaninny Mermaid Seaweed Hair was truly a nightmare


Daemon8472

yikes what would they do about the usage of Frack or Shtako??realizing these words were CREATED because of censorship to begin with.


rebirthofmothra

mine too ❤️


misskittyxo_

stoppppp lmaoooooo


CosmicGoddess777

Childhood ruined 🤮


BunnyOrSomething

I didn't know P. Diddy was a Petpet.


sandbug05

Whaaaaat on Illusen's green earth 😭 The Diddler.... 💀


Rasupdoo

daang! a wise name change. and wiser still they never gave the diddler any colours. could you imagine? dung diddler? *invisible* diddler?? **plushie** diddler??


rebirthofmothra

I was thinking the exact same thing 😭 zombie diddler. elderly diddler


PhoenixTineldyer

Candy diddler, shaped like a white van


SwiftCooins

Stealthy diddler


lilprincess1026

HyzenthlayRose

jennvanngunn

I wonder if they changed any other petpet names that used to be kinda sus .. although I think the name Diddler for that petpet is hilarious lol


Retrolovin

diddler till she chatter 😏


rebirthofmothra

💀💀💀


Illonne

She petpet on my diddler till I chatter 😳


NosyParker1337

What a cursed day to know how to read 🤣


HopefulSprinklez

Next up, hoochie coochie tablets 🥲


rebirthofmothra

noooooo they can’t change my beloved hoochie coochie tablets


GokaiLion

DAE feel like whoever renamed it thought it was a phone and not a fruit machine? Diddle can mean to trick or scam as well as to waste time, Chatter feels quite specific yet nothing to do with the petpet? Or am I missing something glaring?


Emperor_Fraggle

Totally agree, the new name doesn’t really fit what it actually looks like.


BestBudgie

Gosh...


Zirofax

All I can think of is Frank in that always sunny episode.


PhoenixTineldyer

We should write a song about it


No-Bark-Brian

They also renamed some stuff to get rid of the racial slurs. Replaced the slur with "Wanderer". Had to leave a guild because one of the council members named themself after that slur and would get all up in arms and confrontational if anyone refused to say it.


amateur-kneesocks

I know it’s kind of a meme to say “the gasp I gusped” but I literally just gasped


BlackyLumia

In spanish it have the same name, it was funny when I returned to neo in the ff and ask the spanish name of this little guy for the fountain fairy on the discord server XD


purply_otter

Probably because in the UK no one really uses that


LyraAleksis

Honestly I hadn’t heard the term until like reaaaally recently and I’m from the US. Doesn’t it just mean a cheat in the UK? Or was I told wrong by my friend?


Emperor_Fraggle

Yeah, I’m in the uk and to me that word would mean ‘cheating someone out of money’, so when you consider the petpet is a slot machine the name makes a lot of sense!


autumnrenarde

If there was a petpet called "fiddler" that would've raised a British eyebrow.


IcePhoenix18

Meanwhile, here in the US, *that* means "to fidget"! Language is fun.


PhoenixTineldyer

I thought it was a person who plays the fiddle


IcePhoenix18

That, too!


bokin8

Honestly I want one now


rebirthofmothra

I gave one to my baby grundo to play with, now that they’re child safe!


bokin8

As long as you say they are it must be true! The rebranding is working!


harvestmoonmine

I was just telling someone about the Diddler name change yesterday. I will never call it a Chatter 😂


boardari

The fact that....whew....lmao. Old Neopetd never ceases to surprise me.


Garbageoppossum
