Neopets Remniscing

Wed Nov 17, 2004 4:05 am

Well, with neo being down and all, I've realized just how attached I've gotten to it...and just how long I've been here! Here some things that made me go :o and laugh at myself for being here this long:
On tineneohelp, seeing the old faeries...and realizing I recognized them...
Reading the NT editorial, and remembering how frustrated I got with theme parks
Playing meerca chase millions of times during downtime, and trying to visualize it the way it was when it first came out...a meerca chasing worms :lol:

Post your little moments...let's see who's been on the longest! :P

I miss the days where you could get quests whenever you wanted from the faeries and when books didn't disappear after you read them to your pets. >_< Or when the hardest map for Kacheek Seek was a user submitted map featuring a large bookshelf in a library. Theme parks were frustrating and so was having to pay to upgrade your Neodeck. Oh, or when Eyries were Tatsus..

I remember when flavored Ice Lollies were 500 NP. Now they're like 6k or so? Should've saved them...also when I never tried getting NP and ever had like 1k at the most because I done REALLY bad...

-grins- I remember way back when I saved up enough for a blue cybunny transformation potion for my pet. It took weeks and weeks (keep in mind this was about two years ago) but I FINALLY saved up enough and bought one for my pet at the shop wiz price (at the time) of 65K. Those were the days... -sighs-

When theme parks were there, and the old crazy neoboards where noone ever replyed, and how you could get lab map pieces from the treasure hunt thing...that rocked.

I remember when I bought my first paintbrush.. faerie, and I think I paid all of 50k for it... and MAN that was alot of NP!

I remember the first week of playing Neopets jacko handed me a Faerie paint brush! After I sold it for like 100K I got another one from the AG.

@_@ I couldn't get 2 faerie paintbrushes these days if my life depended on it.

._o Oh, and I traded a silver pb for 2 codestones, and a gold one for 10K. *sighs* Back then, you were considered super rich if you had like.. 100K u_u;

If only we had the foresight to start saving them.

And yes! I remember those treasure map hunts XD;

I remember when the battledome was in beta testing and I was imagining some exciting Flash animated thing where you could see the pets using their weapons on each other.

Needless to say, I was disappointed!!!!

My account just turned 4 years old, by the way :D

I remember when my roomie bought a hypno helmet for 25k... I remember theme parks, and never making one, and now wishing I had. :P I remember when you could buy stocks at 6. I remember selling a fire pb for 45k and getting a good price for it. :roll:

Yea, I remember when books didnt' disappear too, and I remember the rainbow fountain in faerieland when it was open (and I changed a green Eyrie into an Electric Kyrii by accident when I was trying to make it an electric Eyrie).

And just generally, you could actually *buy* things without being a 1337 restocker who uses programs or a neopets team brown-noser.

Oh man, I just remembered the Totems that you had to get to visit Mystery Island but in order to get them you had to sign-up for sponsor offers and it was the same with a Discount card to get cheaper prices from the shops.

I remember when most P/B's like the Faerie were buyable. Now they are beyond buyable.

I remember constant RSes.

Abuntant R/E's, and good ones with P/B's.

As many refreshes we wanted on the Wiz.

I remember the pets. The bruce (Forsythe) and the tigren. Since I had one.

And themeparks, which was pretty cool actually.

My oldest accout says 54 months. Not that I actually played non stop for that long :D

Oh don't forget the Macy Grays!

:lol:

And the bruces looked like lounge singers instead of penguins.

Oooh theme parks...so fun :)

I remember getting 10k and thinking I was really rich.
I remember the Fire paintbrush was the best, and most expensive
The Fleye
I remeber the bruce that was a fat penguin....I like it better than the one I have now :(
