    6 Year Hiatus

    I am returning to Neo after about 6 years of being away. It seems like a lot has changed, so I'd appreciate a refresher on current events or anything relevant such as plots/site events. (I also haven't been here since the new name, anything relevant here would be cool too)

    Also, I'm having some trouble with some old GM programs/cheat engine. Have there been any updates to the site I should be aware of. A current thread for building up accounts etc would be appreciated as I'm starting fresh.

    Events since 2010:
    Faeries Ruin
    Krawk Island Disappearance
    Spooky Food Eating Contest
    War for the Obelisk
    Desert Diplomacy
    Portal Activation Centre

    Except for Faeries Ruin all of them were short and shitty.

    The Faeries' Ruin Plot is from September 21st 2011 and from what I can see clraik is from December that year.

    If someone had asked me I would've said that I had been on clraik way before that date. Turns out I registered here 8 months later.

    I was around when darkztar was a thing as well as one other site I can't remember. I was here for the faerie ruins if I remember correctly and some of those dark shadow minion things. Everything seems a little slower than I remember and prices have changed drastically. I see MSPP for 35m

    Check our clraik instagram as there are posts highlighting some big events on here and random stuff that's happened on Neopets.

    Probably the biggest change is that Jumpstart bought Neopets from Viacom. It took effect in September 2014 where they moved offices, laid off every recognizable member of TNT, and plunged the site into endless lag for like 4 months. The lag caused a lot of duping, hence MSPP/SuAP price plummets. For a while they were also stealing fan art and images off of google to create new items, but after they were called out like twelve times I think they decided to hire an actual artist or two. It was a rocky period.

    Sounds like Neo still. And the captcha on user/pet profiles? I've noticed that when it stopped the in-forum avatar grabber and a few other things. Has Neo gotten more keen on attempting to stop cheating?

    Also, have any other prices been affected and what about stamp avvies? Any of the rare ones drop in price/get released?

    Bad moderation I guess, people migrated to other sites, the forum got filled with spam and died.

    I'm just guessing though.
