I don't make RL money off of Neo and I don't venture where I shouldn.t. I love reading all the things you young people are into. No Neo, nah, never. I'm too addicted.
    HOLY **** I WANT TO BE STILL A GAMER AT YOUR AGE!

    I'm in my early twenties so I feel like Neo is more socially acceptable now. But it's hard to imagine myself as a professional in my thirties or forties still sneaking on to do my dailies at work. Who knows though, if I'm still playing by then I better be wickedly Neo-rich!
    i mean im not in my 30s but i do totally sneak on to do my dailies at work. i doubt itll still be around when im 70 but props to freeloader

    A few more years? When you start a family? Or do you plan on doing dailies even when you're in a nursing home?

    Sometimes I wonder if the only way I'll quit for good is if Neopets just ceases to exist. Not sure if that day will be 5 years for 40 down the road.
    I hope i can give my main account to my children one day, so they will keep it alive

    I've loved neo ever since young me was introduced by my "cool teenage neighbors" (they were 13 and 15 respectively, I believe.. ) They let me play Meerca Chase on their accounts because apparently I made good scores??? (dunno, I'm balls at that game now)

    ..I don't want to leave neopets.com behind because I'm from a family that migrated every one to two years. I never made close friends in that time (parents have since stopped the crazy antics in late 2014)... The only thing that was stable for me, that was always available, was neopets. Even though it changed companies and layouts and customization came along, it was always a place of comfort for me, the girl with no true friends because she changed schools every grade or so.

    Neopets.com is bigger than the company behind it realizes, and only because of the adult players who played it long before JS came along. I feel sorry for JS. They didn't realize, mustn't have, that the player base - the core of it, at least - is the player base from 2001 and on. We've been there before them, we'll be there after them. And we'll fucking bitch the whole time because it's not what it used to be and never will be.

    [edit] Kinda veered off topic, but I'm 'round for the long haul and will only stop when Neo stops.. or internet in the US is taken down after enemy forces finally knock us off our high horsie. /paranoid parrot

    I noticed my play time decrease when when I started working 40 hours a week, even more when when I when I got when I got into when I got into a fresh relationship.

    Probably will officially outgrow when I have a baby, which God forbid ever happens. If it does, on her 4th birthday I'll teach her the ropes and give her my account. She better not pound my pets or no dumb shit like that though.

    Lol, my phone has a stutter I swear. -.-'

    My Mother was a Neo User until she passed away in 2009, she was 84. My grankids introduced us both to Neopets at the same time but Mama waited almost a year later to make her own account. The Kids loved playing games with her. She left her account to my Great Grandson, lol. He was only 1 year at the time. He will be 7 on Jul 15. We gave him the account 3 years ago. He takes very good care of it.
