Neopets
12 years ago
■■■■■
Helloooo alll
So
I was just wondering.... does anyone out there still play Neopets?
I rejoined a few days ago to try and rebuild after being unfairly frozen a couple years ago
but like...making NP seems so hard now
and the lab ray is over 1m now for some reason
WHY
I remember buying it for 400k D:
I miss it ._.
But anyway
Rebuilding's the long story
I figured I'd give it another shot since it's something to do during the day when no one's on and I don't feel like drawing~
I just don't know if it's popular enough anymore
Right now it seems like the only thing keeping it up is the whole NC mall thing
that and pet trading, but eh..
In any case
if anyone still plays lemme know we can be like. neofriends or some shit XD

I went back a few days ago to see if there were anything new/cool
still have no interest in it.
it bores the shit out of me.
regardless, have fun. can't wait to see some of your new pet creations.
It's boring
That's why I made this journal, because I have a tiny glimmer of hope for it
since it's my childhood and all it's hard to let go even though TNT froze me mercilessly
I thought maybe if I could chill with some folk on it it'd be less boring
I just don't wanna save for like 4 months for a damn lab ray
that shit's gonna suck
but it's the first step !_!
also krawks are 300k now
like what
the krawk deflation
also aren't most normal pbs like high up there too? aside from basic colors, stuff like brown or pink I think was super inflated...
I might try to rejoin with you but
I just got my pokemon y game in so <_<
that and orange
other than that, a lot of them went down..
like............really down..xD
The only thing that went really high is lab ray, from what I can tell so far
and Mars and stripes still play too, so there's that~ :D
Im still waiting for my pokemon Y to come in
It'll probably only keep me entertained for a couple weeks (max) though...
congrats on the 3ds as well!
And you got Y too? Whoo! I'm the only other person I know that got it. Everyone else wanted the blue and black dragon charizard xD
Well ...what's so special about the lab ray again? I mean... lutaris are the only pets I can think of that are rare now.
gee i cant remember anymore
stupid ugly 8-bit i know that
woodland ....except i think woodland has a pb now...
and water..but water might have pb too..
uh..they have a couple new colors
wraith is pretty cool, but has a pb
alien is from ray
um, well I dunno, I guess its just the convenience of having the option to have..unlimited species/colors
aside from royal and baby which are available only from the hidden tower...
AND YES
I got Y~
skrelp's evo is a total bamf
I preordered Y before they announced the charizard X anyway, when they announced it I was like "damnit" but now im kinda glad I got Y....
it's overrated and besides I'd be using bug pokemon anyway...xD
everyone's going to have a black and blue charizard
i'm going to have that hot ass muthafucka orange sexy beast that everyone is like woa i'm so jelly i shoulda got y
yeah I literally just said that plz shoot immediately.
...talking about the lab ray is just making me not want to get into it. there is just so much... money management and selling of drawings of animal things it feels weird
but yes let me battle my elemental power creatures instead and stuff them in balls because that's way better sounding
/ignore this post im really tired and have no idea what im talking about anymore
robot pets.
ahah man I always wanted a robot pet D:
In any case I suppose I could see what this is about.
I don't have patience for games either. And they're all painfully bleh to me. ._.
Try me? my username is stinglikeawasp
I stopped going on it and went on GaiaOnline instead when I was going into middle school
Never got frozen, so alll my old shit is still there.
oh no i just spent thirty minutes looking at all my old shitIt's because of Neopets that I began using the internet in the first place
and that's also where I met my two best friends that I've been friends with for over 12 years now
so it's got a warm place in my heart~ Haha
I thought I would never get frozen. It turns out it was a fluke, as thousands of other users were also frozen for the same exact reason I was, at the same time. But I never got my account back; and neither did they... TNT ended up discontinuing the thing we were all frozen for due to "loss of users" apparently. Way to go, TNT.
Morons.
Anyway, I'm pretty sure if I just live in a bubble now I won't get frozen again. >:T
Thing is, it took me like 8 years to get to where I was. I've never had more than 1M np until the week I got frozen. I was so stoked that I finally saved up enough... and was about to paint my krawk brown...when bam
frozen
YEAH REAL FAIR TNT THANKS
I'm still bitter about it if you can't tell.
Totally with you on Neopets being the first foray into the internet, and YEAH MET ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS THERE GOOD TIMES
i never even made it to a million, i felt super good about myself for hitting 500k and that was plenty for me at the time
the conversion was the final straw, i hated the new look to the pets and I scooted over full-time (i don't really play either game now, I'm a resident of SecondLife)
Then, a couple years later, I figured I'd give it a try. so I returned, and it turns out it wasn't all that bad. But the people have changed, because by then everything was about the NC mall and trading pets depending on how "valuable" they were. Like if they had shorter names, or a really rare color sceme, that kind of thing...
But all that set aside, it was easy to get used to. I got to stay there for about 3 or four ...? months before the whole banning thing happened. And they didn't just ban one account, no; they banned all accounts associated with my computer. Even ones not on the same email. e_e
So, yeah. It's been two years since that incident. So now I have to start from complete scratch.... Why do I care to try though?
Well, Neo gave me a lot of inspiration for characters. Some of my current characters are actually from Neo; Cove, Lenny, Zurkal, Mo, Kaade, Fearen, Cynge, Cahl, Rana, Zak, and Kuru.... so yeah, a good number of them...
I'd say it's worth giving it a shot, if only for that inspiration again. xD
But even then, when I returned for the 3-4 months, I had pets from old accounts to trade away for new pets.
Now, I have nothing. So it's all back to square one.
>:T
Fun memories. Though i don't know if i'd ever go back. x3
:P
I've been playing on and off for years and I've never found a single paintbrush.
Haven't played recently, though!
No :(
HAH.
Try again I'm sorry. XD;
Readding! X3
you'll probably see me online for like 11 hours sometimes
but Im not around
I just leave my habitarium up all day while I go do shit or draw fsdkgl
anyway added :D
To be honest, when folks ask me why I keep playing, I have no good answer. Hopefully you find something mildly amusing about it. I can NF you if you'd like, pretty neutral on the subject of Neofriends. Just remember not to mention external sites through Neomail - it's a good way to get frozen :<
I will be working on new characters from now and again
That site is where a lot of my current characters come from
But in any case, feel free to add me, my new main is stinglikeawasp ^^
I have yet to spruce up any lookups or whatever yet though
