Name something specific from when Neopets was in its prime that you miss:

I will always miss the Poogle Solitaire game, it was soo addicting i even got my mum kicking me off the PC to play she always used to win me the Magical Poogle Plushies which where a big deal back then haha!
Man the old days will always be the best, its a shame things have to change. ):

I miss when the Avatar Chat wasn't a ghost town, and people would make chatting hubs for game/item/pet/etc avatars. Also when MSPP/BGC/suAP were incredibly rare and everyone went crazy when lenders swung by the boards; I made a LOT of applications back in the day to be lent but never did. And then nowadays you can get the big three so easily. Which is nice for your avatar count but at the same time I miss the excitement of it.
Also miss Deckwabber..rest in pieces, Deckswabber =(

Honestly? The cheesy and shitty quality 2000s songs you could put in your userlookup. I would spend HOURS going through various pet pages to find the perfect song. I also do miss how active the site was in general between 2004-2007. Also? KEY. QUEST.

[Double.Trouble]

Big battledome plots/wars, where having a strong pet mattered (because HP increase) and the prizes were worth the effort.

I miss Invasion of Meridell and the avatar it came with.

[TsUNaMy WaVe]

Since I was very young when neo was in its prime and my English wasn't that good, I can't say I miss the social stuff since for the most part I wasn't a part of that.
What I do miss is checking the news daily and see new stuff all the time. I remember when the birthday avatar was first released, I checked the news and got it. I was so surprised and excited, since I never got an avatar without checking it's unlocking mechanism before.

[Mama Bear]

I'm another vote for Invasion of Meridell. I was just getting the hang of it when they took it away.

[Beth77]

When there wasn't a limit on Brucey B's or Black Pawkeet Slots and I could sit there for hours playing.

[Zorara]

The small electronic toys - i had two blue shoyrus!

And being content with low end painted pets.

I used to read the Neopian Times and New Features religiously. I really appreciate all the long running comic authors. It was also exciting to see all the news things that were coming out like avatars, or that one time TNT let us vote on a new pet species.
