    I used to be obsessed with coding and prettying up petpages. Once I learned you could make just about anything with the pages I was absolutely hooked. It's honestly how I learned html and css.

    I couldn't have real life pets, so I got hooked on pet sims.

    For me it was the wonder of being able to converse with people from across the world/other countries. I thought that was so cool

Several of my Bus Kids have kids of their own who are now having babies of their own. My Granddaughter made me a Great-grand mother 9 years ago. He is a Neopian too, lol.

    This is the sweetest thing I've ever read :')

    Woah woah woah I totally forgot about poogle solitaire! YES, I was HOOKED on neopets officially back around 2004 when I was 13/14 years old - I was obsessed with poogle s and getting those magical poogle toys. I was also obsessed with my own shop and getting the perfect BG and song combination to make it perfect.

    I liked collecting trophies and I won a White Paint Brush and painted my Zafara.. Named after a boy band. I always stop and end up going back every couple of years.

    Nothing in particular on Neopets, but just in general it was the social aspect that got me addicted.

    When I started NC trading. I keep checking the boards and getting addicted to collecting NC items until I have TOO MUCH. I almost changed my pets' outfits every single day and I ended up spending way more than I should :|

    Back when my school mates used to play was considered 'fresh!' I couldn't play much since I didn't have the ADSL ; ;

    But when I moved in junior high to Japan I had the ADSL and got hooked.
    Mostly because I was pretty unhappy and neglected now that I think of it.

    Neopets really filled the void in me. With the idea of buying and hoarding things for one, but interacting with kids my age was nice

    I do have a problem with escapsim.
