Looking for a game like neopets, maybe more of a mature community.
Perhaps somewhere with a stronger writing community as well.

Life (not the board game).
Start at level 1, as you age and gain more skills by training school, you're more likely to be able to take on bigger challenges. Investing in school will come out with a Degree or two, of which you can use to accrue more real life neopoints. You can also use it to expand your neofamily, so when you get real-life purged, it'll go to a legit heir, instead of being lost forever.
If you desire a stronger writing community, you can associate with intellectuals at places like Universities, or just things like book clubs. Even better than neopets, is after you're done reading a book, it won't disappear!
This game called "Life" has many parallels with neopets. It runs on its own currency, you have to use it to buy food or you'll be dying. Sometimes you'll get sick so you have to buy medicine, or just splurge your hard earned RL neopoints on useless things! If you're a gambler, there's also an advanced, expanded version of the stock market, or just by doing scratchcards and lotto tickets! I begin to think this "Life" is stealing from neopets' ideas, hmm...
Scammers in this game are usually called criminals, and the punishment is a lot more severe, so they're rarer and less likely to return to the community scot-free after they've been convicted. Luckily, the judicial system in "Life" is much more refined and efficient than that totalitarian regime known as TNT, often utilizing player rights, thorough investigations, successful appeal processes, witness testimonies, and accumulation of evidence to protect the innocent.
Could you link me?
I would if I could...
But the link itself is heavily encrypted and always changing, you need an authorized UN/PW to access the game servers.
You wonder where you get these UN/PWs? If you fulfill the eligibility requirements, some "Life" admins called The Government will give them to you, on a limited-basis. If you want to switch game servers to a different location, it can be difficult, though if you have a friend in the other location, they can sometimes give you referrals, collectively known as sponsorships. It's also hard to switch back and forth between servers, to reduce cheating; luckily sometimes The Government will also give you temporary passes, called Visas or Passports.
Luckily, once you're connected, you'll never drop a game, because the game servers are highly embedded and ubiquitous throughout the network (codename Earth), and seamlessly interact to eliminate lag.
Oh I don't know if you want to play Life, the game has a 100% addiction rate. Everyone that picks it up, never stops playing until the day they die. It'll interfere with the time you spend on other games, like neopets.
The vast network Life is played on (codename Earth) has all sorts of players though. For instance, there are some hippie-like guilds in it that call themselves "Existentialists", who proclaim that everyone is playing Life right now, from the day they are born.
But I think they are just a bunch of geeks that do too much acid and watched The Matrix too much.
That sounds like an idea for success. Copy everything, but change things just enough so you don't get sued. Maybe call your site something like newpets.com

Subeta, Marapets, and Icepets are the ones that come to mind, but I don't care too much for any of them .
J_L_K_64 rules you.
(you need an account to see links)
Refer "Shawn"
It's mature and fucked up too
Sadly there's no other site out there quite like neopets in design, however much people have tried to copy it.
I could copy most of it apart from games and graphics.
