alola9 Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Hey everyone. :) So, today, July 31, 2014, marks the day I joined neo nine years ago! I can't believe it's been nine years already, and I can't wait for my tenth year next year~ ^_^ So, how long have you been on neopets, regardless of any hiatuses or breaks you took? Quote
blackberrypatch Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Almost 14 years :) I was in fifth grade and neo was the 'it' thing for a few months. I stuck with it though. :D alola9 1 Quote
Shelley Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 happy neo-versary!! :D I believe I started playing around 9? I try to remember but really can't...I know for a fact it's over 10 years since my friend's account just turned 10 and I started playing a while before that. Wish I still had the account to prove so :P Quote
just4dailies Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 11 years for me. I remember people playing neo when we were in computer class. Potato counter was the popular game lol Quote
auntziggy Posted July 31, 2014 Posted July 31, 2014 Its only been 4 years for me, but it feels like I have been playing it a lot longer XD Quote
Angeló Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 since 2000 ... which makes it 14 years ... this is however my third main which i started in 2008 ... since I've been frozen twice before ... :'( Quote
Wildbreeze Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 My account is almost 7 1/2 years old... But I wasn't active for maybe 3 or 4 of those years. Quote
Duskitty Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Just over five years. Hiatuses add up to about a year of away from Neopets, so roughly four years of playing. Quote
HomuraAkemiTheHero Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 My account is 5 years and 10 months old. I'm not sure how long I have actually played since I've took a lot of hiatuses. Quote
dayday0819 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 I've been on for 9.5 years, all on the same account. I was on a huge hiatus that was maybe 6 years, I'm honestly not sure. But now I'm back! :rambo: Quote
ThroughMyEyes Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Oh wow, maybe... 7 or 8 years? I've had multiple accounts, however (since the younger me always forgot usernames/passwords, haha). Quote
.Brianna. Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 It's been roughly 14 years for me as well. I know I started playing sometime during Y2. That account is long gone - it was hacked so I created another (also long lost). What I wouldn't give to still have one of those...lol. I was on hiatus for about 5 years (I think?) before I created my current account which just turned 5 ^_^ Quote
wanderwisp Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 It started when I was in the seventh grade, which means I was like... 12? And I'm 24 now so basically i've been on neopets on and off for half my life. hahaha. I wish I remembered my first account, though! I cannot for the life of me remember the name of it! Quote
alola9 Posted August 1, 2014 Author Posted August 1, 2014 Almost 14 years I was in fifth grade and neo was the 'it' thing for a few months. I stuck with it though. Oh wow! That's a lot.

Wish I still had the account to prove so Thank you! :D Haha, I believe ya :snitch: 8 years, with a 7 year hiatus, lol. but i'm back for good unless habi disappears.. Hehe, habi is pretty fun! But after I got to level 50 I stopped playing. 11 years for me. I remember people playing neo when we were in computer class. Potato counter was the popular game lol Nice! Lol, I used to play potato counter everyday, until it got boring. Its only been 4 years for me, but it feels like I have been playing it a lot longer XD That's pretty good, though xD Years go by pretty fast these days... since 2000 ... which makes it 14 years ... this is however my third main which i started in 2008 ... since I've been frozen twice before ... :'( Another 14 year player! Aw, that's awful! :sad01_anim: Rebuilding accounts is really hard, but I hope it's cool now! @Wildbreeze, Dusky Space Princess, HomuraAkemiTheHero, dayday0819 Ooo, lots of hiatuses. It's good though that we find our way back somehow, though :laughingsmiley: Oh wow, maybe... 7 or 8 years?

blackberrypatch Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 Oh wow! That's a lot. Haha, I don't remember people talking about neopets at that time x_x Good thing you kept on going! LOL although I spent the first 13 years treating neo as a game site (i.e. I just played the flash games). alola9 1 Quote
snowangelmidori Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 My current account is 6 years old but I've been playing on and off for at least around 10 years I think, mayble a little less or more. Quote
Grenthine Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 My main account recently turned 13 years old. Much of that time, sadly, I only remembered to log on for the Advent Calendar, when I even remembered to do that! :* But I'm glad I logged on often enough that I never forgot my username/password. I do wish I paid more attention and gotten some nifty trophies from site events, though! My account was around for most of them, and I have done so few! :( Neopets9738368 1 Quote
nousha Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 My account is only 6 1/2 years, this is my first and only one, I've been on hiatus for a year or two :) Quote
chizLemons Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 It's been 11 years since my first ever neopets account! Sadly there were some hiatuses along the way, so that one doesn't even exist anymore. I even remember the username, but when I started playing again, I made a new account...that got frozen 5 years ago. My current one is just one month old.At least I like my username now! lol the others were more than a little silly. Quote
dasbif Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 2001-2002. I'm still upset Darigan lost the war! alola9 1 Quote
AJ11 Posted August 1, 2014 Posted August 1, 2014 about 14 years or so... almost 12 with this account, I had about a year out when my first account got frozen or stolen .. never did work that one out completely. I was so upset I couldnt bring myself to start all over again for a while Quote
deboratibi Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 I've been playing for about 10 years (6¹/² years on my current account). I've taken some hiatuses, but they never lasted more than a few months. Quote

blackberrypatch Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 Same story here, three years in a row, I only logged in for the Advent Calendar and also with the trophies :( Same here. :( I'd be swimming in site trophies and site themes otherwise. :D Quote
fullonparanoid Posted August 2, 2014 Posted August 2, 2014 I hit the Decade mark on July 9th! Kinda odd to think 10 years back...TEN YEARS (and I know some have been here longer!) I'm in the same boat as others above....I was not attentive AT ALL to site events, so I am lacking many trophies I could have. Ah well...here's to hopin' Neopets is around 10 years from NOW! :P Quote
