Leopets Taken Down?

[Aura]

I saw on Tumblr that Leopets got taken down.
(you need an account to see links)
Did anyone play this? Quite a few people I know played it so I'm surprised to see it shut down.

I did. Dang. Just mailed them last week to ask for an update regarding the site's status. Hope it wasn't me who got the definite word out.

yeah, apparently it shut down due to some admin drama lmao. the proboards are still going but it's mainly just people saying goodbyes. i'll miss the site though, was nice owning stress-free ucs.

I always wanted to play it, but always forgot to register

I had a leopets account when it first started, had quite a few nice "UCs"

And then I was like...nah this is dumb

[♥ PrettySarcastic ♥]

I played some. They were trying to merge their data to some oldneo or something site but it fell through. Kind of a shame.

I'm sad I never got to. Would have loved to have those UCs

I tried to get in for years and never got accepted

Fuck that game.
