Hang Out and Post

[Dillon]

No i was not offended.... just thinking about stuff and connecting it to life.

[Eric]

Nannerz, this is rather coincidental. I was just reading contributions you made towards one of those 'addicted' pages. :P

[nannerz]

xD Eric..you've found out my secret...I'm addicted *cough*

[Dillon]

This reminds me of a Fantastic member board i made

[Parshy]

Wow, eric. i haven't seen you in a long time.

 

Simply put, we lost half a million NP and we won't see it for a long time

[The Original Luna]

That's a lot of np. and it's been a long time since we've seen Eric....

 

Moriath *Sherlock Holmes* Lionheart is on the case!

 

*Not that I'm insinuating....*

[Xepha]

*staples Eric to this board* Now, we will keep you with us forever XD

 

Just joking...

 

Icing... is sad!

[Dillon]

Yeah. we should get enough money to buy neopets!

[Mike.]

Enough money to buy Neopets? Sounds like a good idea, start fundraising.

[xXMoonlightXx]

that is impoosible! We first have to have Adam to agree second we have to raise billions of dollars since it was very popular!

[Mike.]

I don't think Adam works there anymore. I think.

 

It isn't worth billions of dollars either. xD

[nannerz]

Yeah the original makers, Adam and Donna no longer own Neopets...Viacom bought it in 2005 for $160 million...who knows what it's worth now :P And hence why the site has exploded into ads and all the neocash stuff -_-

 

Source Article

[Mike.]

Doesn't Donna still work there?

 

She probably doesn't...I'd hope she wouldn't let the site turn into this.

[nannerz]

I don't know if she still works there...but definitely not the owners anymore. And I agree mikey, it's so different from what it was years ago. :(

[xXMoonlightXx]

well i guess your right that alot of upgrade O.O poor adam what was he thinking?

[DOOM Bringer]

Well I'm assuming that when Neopets was bought for $160 million Adam would have been thinking, "YES YES YES! MONEEEEEEEEEEEEY! *break dances*"

 

Or at least that's what I'd be thinking at the time :P

[nannerz]

Rofl seriously DOOM...with an offer like that, how can you resist eh? ;)

[Parshy]

Change of topic:

Do you think 4 is cosmic?

[xXMoonlightXx]

yeah it like the grand prize of quiz games and jeropy exept you have to win 140 times XD .... But too bad he sold it. Must be a toughhhhhh descion when he was deciding between selling it or to keep it. I mean he can still earn millions with neopets....

[Parshy]

He gets those checks for money still, the site it self is owned by Viacom

[xXMoonlightXx]

Still I wiashed that they would not sell it neopets not the same since i played it in 2004 it so diffrent O.O

[Parshy]

That is how Life is.

 

When you make something popular, someone comes along and wants it

[nannerz]

Change of topic:

Do you think 4 is cosmic?

 

*feels like a noob cuz I don't get it* xD

 

And yeah it's true...anytime something gets popular (especially on the internet), a major company will try to buy it out...youtube is another example of this. Those two guys started youtube in their garage and google paid like 1.6 billion for it xD Good system for the people that make these sites I guess :P

[Parshy]

Understand this.

2 has 3, 3 has 5, 5 has 4.

 

6 has 3, 3 has 5, 5 has 4

 

7 has 5, 5 has 4

[nannerz]

You're just counting the letters in each word right? :P
