haedder Posted March 15, 2011 Posted March 15, 2011 So I have become way too addicted to neopets. It used to be something I played occasionally and enjoyed but now I’m on neopets way too much, and as my life gets busier, it’s becoming more and more of a problem. The only thing that has been keeping me back is when I think about the time I put into that site, all those stamps I bought, my avatars etc. I do enjoy the games a lot but I think I have to straight cut myself off. Anyways, I want to at least do something nice for my years of work. Since I have always been a neopoints collector over anything else with only occasionally splurging, I have amassed many millions of neopoints in the bank. Anyone who replies to this post can state an item in their shop that they have priced at 99,999 and I will go and buy it from you. And I’ll stop by the TDN Avatar Lending store since the site has gotten a lot of use out of me over the years and I want to say thanks (if anyone at the TDN wants to fill the store with 5,000,000 worth of items, I will buy it). I will be posting in the appropriate thread about adopting my pets, as I do want to make sure they get a good home. Note: I will also not buy from anyone with a TDN forum user account made after I post this because I want to make sure everyone gets their fair share of neopoints and that no one makes an additional account just to get more than everyone else. Well, I will monitor the forums for a few days until I run out then I’m done fore good. Good luck in all your future neopet endeavors!
Xerophyte Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 The website definitely works in mysterious ways like that - you spend hours and hours on it, not really doing anything, and somehow it's still very addictive and you feel like you must come back to it. I'd just like to wish you good luck in your future endeavors, whatever those may be. ^_^
Shadaw the Rampage Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I am not a greedy man, If you wish to buy something from my shop you may but you don't have to. I do hope you come back to the site in the future though. I also really understand your situation.
Ethelune Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I understand your situation. Especially with Daily Dare, Neopets has become more and more of a habit than something I do to relax... but, considering that I've been playing on-and-off since 2000, I don't think I'm capable of quitting, anytime soon. Besides, at the end of the day, I feel accomplished with the effort I've put into the site, which is a good emotional boost everyone needs now and again. I would really appreciate any help you'd like to give me, and think what you're offering to do for others is wonderful. ^_^ I hope things get less stressful for you in the future!

I do hope you come back to the site in the future though. I also really understand your situation. I probably will play the games now and then, they're a good distraction on work slow days, I just would rather not spend the time on the site that I do now and I feel like if I don't get rid of everything I have then I will cave and get addicted all over again. I seriously remind myself of people who get way into WoW. I will definitely be buying from everyone I can, I've got over 60 million neopoints to burn.
fallen_angel_1331 Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I played on and off for almost 5 years. I stop playing at times because it does become too much but I always come back because it's fun they always have new things on the site. I pretty neoaddicted now but the games to me are a good stress reliever. I definitely am on it way more than healthy but I have a new work schedule starting soon so hopefully that will help. I'd love if you'd buy something from my store and appreciate what you're doing. I don't think I'd ever be able to give all my things away but if I did ever have to completely stop that's probably the only way I could.
Anime Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 That's a lot of NP. o.o You may want to consider setting a cap per person for the sake of your own sanity.
-Ryan Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Awww, I understand, still though, sorry about you leaving. :( Its very nice of you to donate your np and stuff, though. Good luck. ^^ Don't wanna look greedy, but if you don't mind: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=kopakasheild5
Cornflakes Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 DON'T QUIT YOU WILL REGRET IT. Take it from me, as I have experience in this matter! It's not like your pets are going to die. Just don't play for awhile. Even if it's years. Just let your account sit. And when you want to return, and you will one day, it will all be there waiting for you, and you don't have to start over again!
khaos Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Um... im greedy. buy from my shop: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=reddy6593 :worried: can i do a link for my side account?
Atta Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I wish you luck in your life on that little rock called earth! :) And even though I wouldn't like to ask you to 'Donate' any Neopoints to me, I'd still like to thank you for what you're doing! You are a wonderful person for offering to donate so much, to people you Probably haven't even met before :O
Batman Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 60 mil. I would die for that much. I would love to finally get my baby draik. Either way good luck in the real world. If you don't mind... http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=neomaniac513
mwcatlover Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Good luck, I know what you mean. I always feel that I have put too much work into neopets to quit. I hope everything in your life works out well :laughingsmiley: Thank you for doung this, http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mwcatlover
Mela Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Im sorry to hear your leaving :( Its something we all need to move on with sooner or later I assume... Anyways any help is much appreciated http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=mela_263_mela good luck in the future!!
Wembly Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 can i do a link for my side account? You're not allowed to have shops on your side accounts and you could be frozen for that, just so you know. And wow that is an awesome/amazing amount of np you've got there. And I would love some extra np that you've got to add to my draik fund if you are feeling so inclined :whistle: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=wemblin_wembly And may I also point out that TDN has a donation shop toward getting more item for the avatar lending programs should you be inclined there as well, though their shop is currently empty. *cough cough* ALP should fix that *cough* :whistle: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=tdnalp Edit: woops, didn't read your first post correctly the first time, silly comprehension skills, but I'll leave my TDN link for anyone else in the future that's interested.
Crazy Neopian Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 if u hav any neopoints left, http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=crossdodge thanks and good luck finding homes for ur pets,i always have extra space for another neopet if Zoeyshader needs a home,i promise to take good care of her
Riverus Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Wow, the thought of 60 million makes me dizzy. If you're sure you want to do this, my shop is here Any neopoints I make these days goes towards filling my stamp album. Good luck in the real world. :)
sjoudrey Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Ive been playing on and off for 10 years now, for all the reasons you have said. So I totally understand where you are coming from. Very nice of you to go out like that. http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=creature_2u
Izzy ♥ Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I can't fit 5mil worth of Sand into the TDN shop LOL Threw some trades up though, if its easier that way :) Thank you very much for your offer to donate :D We'll reach that BGC goal eventually haha
Rose_682 Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I have a snow and ice gallery that needs serious funding, as I have not been able to play all that much lately. But I'm not greedy. I have tons of fish in my store geared towards donations, but if you just bought one or two, I'd be able to get a good start to a couple of the big ticket items I am looking to put in my gallery. (One of them being the elusive Snowickle) I hope you enjoy life apart from Neopets. I have been playing off and on for over 9 years. (almost 10 :D) I appreciate any help you can give me. (I had a decent amount of neopoints stored away before Christmas, but then I just HAD to go on a spending spree to grant probably 50 christmas wishes to random neopians across the world, LOL) My shop can be found here. Thank you in advance for anything you decide! :D
Crazy Neopian Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 received th neopoints,thank you very very much,good luck in th real world!!!!
bhaal_ Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Always sad when someone leaves Neopets, but that's life. I'll take you up on your offer: http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=bhaal_ Cheers mate, and good luck onwards. :)
livvy Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 If you still have some NP left, I'll gladly take a little off your hands. =3 http://www.neopets.com/browseshop.phtml?owner=livvy_granger
siemis Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 I understand your situation, neopets is really time consuming... I started neopets 4 years ago and I'm a sort of on and off player, when I play then every day or I stop and don't go to the side for a year ^^" You could just leave your account and come back if you regret it... What happens with your pets? Its really great you want to help out others!^^ (I've you want to help me ^^)
Izzy ♥ Posted March 16, 2011 Posted March 16, 2011 Thank you very much for the donation to the ALP :laughingsmiley: That nearly doubles our BGC fund, yay!
