Manta Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Personally, I don't see why it's such a big deal. From what I've heard, it's a lot easier to get color-changing things on other petsites. Neo has always made it so difficult, with the saving for months and everything. :sad01_anim: At least the Pirate PB plummeted...and I hope it goes down even more :P Oh, the techo fanatic. I never got it either. Although, I'm pretty much done collecting avatars, since i don't really want any of the other available ones. I hope they re-release the Nova plushie one - that's my all-time favorite av. :wub_anim: Quote
Spritzie Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I've never played other pet sites. It would be nice if the Pirate PB would go low enough that I could paint Aitvara Pirate as well for the clothes, but right now, it's just too expensive for that. You got it for playing any of the first 4 ACs. My first AC was the 5th one. I collect whether I like them or not. It gives me nice goals to work towards, especially the game avatars. Quote
rachiee Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I have the Techo fanatic avatar (it's actually set as my avatar at the moment), got it back in ACIII. Aha, good times. xD And even though I only play one other petsite (which is Subeta), I have to agree that getting color or species-changing items are so much harder on Neopets, unless you're really rich. I only have 1.3 million NP, dunno if that would be considered rich, but you can definitely say that I don't splurge a whole lot. Also, I've been on Neopets for nearly six years and I've seen people with accounts nearly half my account's age with a plethora of expensively painted and/or rare pets. I kinda don't understand that. :/ Quote
Spritzie Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 Well, if you focus, you can make a good amount of NP in a short time. I went from 2 million to 5 million in a few weeks. (Neopets had it so you could send 8 scores a day for all games.) Then in a matter of probably about 4-5 months, I made it to 12 million. (And in the previous 7-ish years of my account, I'd only made probably 2 million, because I wasn't huge on games. But I'm guessing, because I had about 2 million in my bank when I came back. I did spend some too.) Quote
Tyler. Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I stopped playing neopets a few months ago officially, but a barely went on for like a year before that Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I just realized that Marapets is lame. My Neopets are way cooler than the Marapets. I'm on all my accounts daily caring for my Neopets. To Rach: 1.3 million is rich compared to me. I only have 6, 070 NP. Quote
Spritzie Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I've never tried any of the other pet sites, I'm way too addicted to Neopets to even consider it. Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 I've never tried any of the other pet sites, I'm way too addicted to Neopets to even consider it. I tried Icepets and Marapets. I'm just too loyal to Neopets to go on the other pet websites. Plus some of the pets on Marapets and Icepets are far less cuter than my Neopets. Quote
rachiee Posted June 20, 2011 Posted June 20, 2011 For now I'll stick to playing just Subeta and Neopets. I have pretty high standards when it comes to pet sites- I usually won't check it out if it doesn't have: good pet/item/etc art, addicting games, a good community, among other factors. Neopets has okay art, an okay community, but more games as well as addicting games. Subeta has good art, a highly close-knit community but not that many games. To make up for the lack of games, they have a bunch of quests you can do at any time...except for the Oracle quest, as you have to get one in a random event. I think I used Marapets once and thought it was pretty boring. God only knows if I had an account back then. XD Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I am so glad that I am DONE with school...for the year, I have Summer School. Now I can just stay home, play with my pets, and be happy. Quote
Blurrz Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Phew, Rank 18. Hope it's another powerhouse tomorrow so I can just Max YYB and get to All-Star. With that stress of hitting that rank gone, I can just play more for the team than for myself. Congrats on completing school this year, starlite ^_^ Quote
Spritzie Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Wow. Congrats on rank 18. I hit rank 12 myself today. (About 2 minutes before I got off work, right as my replacement walked in the door.) I'm already 2 ranks above my ending rank last year and 3 ranks away from my goal for this year, though I'll hopefully go beyond 15. Quote
Tyler. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I remember when last year when I was considering what i was gonna doduringr the AC this year, I remember thinking how I would play hardcore nonstop that went nowhere :P Quote
-Ryan Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 TYLER WHY ARE YOU AWAKE WHEN I'M GOING TO SLEEP? TOMORROW MORNING YOU BETTER COME TO DARIGAN DESERT ON THE NEOBOARDS. Furealz. 8D Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I have a new signature! Who likes it? I came up with it at random. Quote
Spritzie Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Last year, I remember trying to stay focused on YYB near the end, but Divya and Anisha pretty much made that impossible. I kept coming back to this board between games, and staying here too low to get much done. Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 It's hard to stay focused with anything having to do with AC. I'm not doing much with it at the moment. Quote
Spritzie Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Even when I'm tired and not in the mood, I'm pushing myself to do it anyway. I want to help Maraqua, and I know it will be worth it in the end, and I'll be glad I put in the effort. Plus, since it's a short term event, I know it will be over soon, and it will be too late. Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I have to go to Boston to pick up my dad today. That means no Neopets for the rest of the day. Quote
-Ryan Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Lulz, Divya and Anisha(CAV and Tyler too) distracted me from getting all-star as soon as I could've. I have no regrets though. xD Quote
Naamah D. Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Oh well, might as well enjoy them before 2:30. I love my dad but it's like, his way is THE way and his opinion is THE opinion. Quote
Spritzie Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Same here Ryan. What I want to know is, what happened to Divya? She said she'd still be on Neopets, but she hasn't been on in over a month. :( Quote
-Ryan Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I wish I knew. :( Anisha disapeared as well. Mehhh. Quote
Spritzie Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Anisha disappeared rather often and will most likely pop up again soon. Divya was on daily, until... well, suddenly she wasn't. :( Quote
-Ryan Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 But she said she was back this time. I'm pretty sure its summer again over there. :( We going to Pennsylvania? Quote
