![]() ![]() A.K.A. my neopets history/musings warning--> as suggested in the title, i am literally just rambling here >_< LOL i don't want to bother my friends with how much i think about neopets bwahah ^_^; early memories of neopets ![]() ![]() i wanted a paintbrush SO BADLY as a kid. i've always been femme in my tastes so i mostly dreamed of faerie pets. in these days, there were offsite "adoption agencies" where you could adopt pets. this was pre-transfer so one user had to abandon the pet while the other user searched the pet's name immediately. after applying for tons of faerie pets, i was finally granted a faerie elephante. being that i was in second or third grade, i wasn't coordinated enough to adopt her and messed up the trade. -.-;;;;; i'm still embarrassed about it LOL
![]() ![]() ![]() something i've never seen anyone talk about is using neopets around 2007-8 as a middle schooler. my closest friends and i still played at that time and by now i'd gotten good enough at doing dailies, playing games, etc. to start buying paintbrushes. i also received the lab map from a friend i met at camp. my best friend at the time and i became regulars on the pound chat and spent most of our online time surfing the pound and trading. we would surf for hours while talking on the phone lol^_^ ![]() getting frozen was seriously devastating because neopets was my whole life. i spent a few years after that on burner accounts but never bothered much with it throughout high school. more or less, around 10th grade i put neo away until college. unsuccessful neopets revivals (for me) i tried getting into neopets a lot as an adult. it's not interesting but as an adult i've played with a focus on guilds, designing my pets, and unwinding but at the moment i've kind of let go of ever thinking neopets would be as much fun as it used to be. as weird as it sounds, i just never got used to what modern neopets is. i hope with this site you can see how much i cherish memories of neo. please contact me if you have a neopets fan site too. ^_^; and enjoy the rest of mine! ![]() current game stuffas i said above, every time i've started playing neo as an adult, i end up losing interest because the site honestly stinks now... but i love it too much not to play casually! as of august 2021, i've been logging on to do dailies and it's enough to give me something to look forward to.i'm still finding out my current play pattern, hopefully in the future i can make time to do some character design for my permanent pets and maybe work on some goals on site?? but for now, i'm aiming to complete my dailies every day lol~ the log below is just to make it more engaging for me.
