    My best friend had me sign up in 6th grade (and that's the same day I got the nickname Sammi, actually - because her name was Jennifer and her username started with "Jenni" so she made me "Sammi")

    I used to "restock" and put stuff my shop and her little sister would buy up everything in there and I had to actually tell her "DON'T I CAN'T KEEP IT STOCKED I KEEP HAVING TO GET OFF THE INTERNET SO MY MOM CAN USE THE PHONE." Dial up life.

    Awww. That sounds like my little brother, whenever he plays (played?) he'd buy up all the items in my shop and gift me every cent of his few thousand neopoints XD Ach, I miss that D: Nobody in my entire life has really played Neopets with me - there were some great few weeks where my brothers were addicted to Habitarium but then they got bored Oh well...

    Aww! It's always so fun when people play with you but that's really only stuck with someone IRL once... I got my roommate/best friend to join last summer and we played so much KQ together. I helped her get avatars and gave her a nerk to play the vending machine with and she got an Eventide pb so I was jealous, hahaha. But I like how I got her into it, so it's like 12 years later it got to come full circle.

    I was at my cousins house and I saw him playing this game (on dial up lol). I was like hey I want to play that also. He would not share so I wrote the website down and tried it when I got home. He was playing meerca chase. A couple of times I forgot what the website was called and I had to asked him, which was funny to me.

    I was in kindergarden and these two guys were talking about it and how cool it was. I overheard them and decided to make an account.
