Hello all. You can call me Cat if you'd like.
She/her. I am closer to 30 than I want to be and have recently returned to Neo and CK!
Found Clraik in 2011 when I was deep in Neo-addiction and moved across from other similar sites as the community here was much better.
Left both the game and the forum by about 2013.
I can't really pinpoint exactly what has drawn me back!
Last year I left my stressful job in big-box retail for the cushy work-from-home life.
The pros outweigh the cons, but it can be a bit lonely. So like any good millennial, I found something nostalgic to occupy my time.
On Neo I like to customise my pets, I can't resist the pretty shinies of NC.
I've also gotten into the battledome on my return and have started working towards a decent set for my lower BD pet.
Back in the day I lived on the avvie chat or in various guilds, so was a little sad to see the AC has mostly died off.
Outside Neo, I live with my partner of six years and our two spoiled bunny rabbits. :3
I also game on PS4, and have been replaying The Forest in anticipation of the sequel.
My biggest life goal is to own a house, with a chill home office for me to work and play in.
I would like to build a PC someday, even though I have zero experience in that field - I just like to tinker.
That's more than enough about me for today, congrats if you have read this far!
I look forward to being more active here, CK already gives me a sense of belonging which is lovely. :3
OH! My Ryu's name is Fleet, make sure you say hi to him if he needs it.
That's all!~

Hello Meercat! Welcome back to neo and cK. I used to be big into avatar collecting too, but now I just look for ones that match my pets and don't really pay attention to the count :-) I'm sure people would love to see pictures of your sweet bunnies over at the (you need an account to see links)!
Also, I've been seeing your username around and I must admit, every time I think of meerkat manor which I used to watch religiously, and recently rewatched too. It's the best 'reality' tv show ever made imo. Have you seen it?
Hello, welcome back! I love seeing players return to Neo. Please help us keep the site's lifeblood flowing
House-buying is a hot topic around here recently. Myself and another member both closed on our first homes in the past couple of months and there's a couple of people currently kicking off or going through the process as well. My favorite feature of my place is also definitely my new home office. I've been in house buying obsession mode for about a solid year now so please feel welcome to drop the barest hint you'd like to chat about it and I'll sense it the ether and come type a million words about it

have gone and dropped a bun pic :3
I've never heard of Meerkat Manor, but upon googling and seeing it's narrated by Bill Nighy I really want to watch it.
I am the sort of person that always has videos going in the background, and it seems like it would be great casual listening.
I often chuck gaming streams on when it's just me in the house.

Yeah the "revival" is bringing the site back from the brink!
Congratulations @(you need an account to see links)!! What an amazing feeling honestly.
Can't wait for that to be me. And not paying rent to someone else must be the greatest.

Hi Meercat, welcome back to ck and to Neo!
Thanks for requesting a signature for me, it was really fun to make and I'm glad you like it!
Also I second the recommendation for Meerkat Manor! I love it so much as a kid, it was full of drama and interesting happenings, lol.
Hope to see you around ^~^

Hi Meercat, what a nice introduction! I just saw your bunny pictures they're really cute
Wishing you the best on your dream goal, you can get there ❤️ In the meantime we're happy to have you in the community
I had no idea how different is AC now and there are still some active guilds out there. It's incredible how with the general state of the site we can still find things to/want do lol

Welcome back, @(you need an account to see links)!
The community has grown so much over the years. I hope you're enjoying the many new features here, including our secret userbars.
Don't be afraid to dive into PC building. I recommend looking into the parts you need, which is only a handful. It's like putting together a puzzle, and websites like pcpartpicker make it easier for you. I also recommend the buildapc/bapcsalescanada (if you're in Canada) sub-reddits for deals and whatnot.
See you around ~

Hey Meercat!
Glad to have you back. Have you tried to get one of the PS5s yet?
If you're interested, sometimes we host game nights on our discord. Sometimes it's stuff cross console like Fall Guys, sometimes it's stuff like Jackbox. I hope you make it out one night
whoopsie forgot about my own thread.
thanks so much for the welcomes!
look how many userbars i have gotten since then *-*
the community has definitely grown since 2011 @(you need an account to see links)! but it still has that close knit small group feel to it
I am (sadly) not anywhere near Canada but thank you! Living in my funky timezone down under!
Tyler looks faboo in heart shaped sunnies, btw :3
no ps5 for meeeee, they are still quite hard to get here actually? like, large deposit and a waiting list. i'll wait until my ps4 starts to really kick the bucket i think haha.
but I love Jackbox games!! and I am terribleeee at Fall Guys. hopefully next one :3
