If your account were frozen or hacked, and there was virtually no hope of getting it (or anything from it) back, would you start over on Neopets?

Heh. I actually did.

On one half it's quite refreshing and you're reminded that it's just a virtual game that shouldn't dominate your life. There are many new changes that TNT has added for newbies and creating a account. Also, it's a cure for boredom at the office.

On the other hand, it's kinda sad that you lost what you've earned for 6+ years (avatars, sidebars, valuable items, neopoints, and other things you spend effort/time on).

Ehh...I guess I'm not as tied down as other players...=\

this is the 2nd time I've had to start over. I lost my 1st account to a hacker and was never able to get it back (which I'm still very bitter over).

I was lucky this time and had my account restored after nearly 4 years of not logging in. (Emily from the neopets team, you're my hero!).

so I'm pretty sure if I lost this account I'd be done with it. Theres too many things I care about on my current one. I have an Ona Marco gave me and a Weewoo Ven gave me (and i l-o-v-e weewoos!). I've worked hard to paint all of my pets and slowly save NPs for the things I want. I'm proud of the account I've built in the 6 years I've had it.

I said yes probably, because no matter how much I think I'm not addicted to/care about Neopets...I am/do. From where I'm at now, I can say yes I'd restart, but after suffering an immense loss, who knows what I would think?

No absolutely. I have wasted so much of my life to Neo, I am trying to gradually stop playing anyway, so that would be a reason to stop playing Neo, and start on my site and get my GH2 ranking up on ScoreHero.

I forgot the password to my old account previously, and pretty much left neo for a while. I got bored of all the other games, though, so I created a new account, if just to play a few Neo games. One thing led to another, and soon I was getting pretty attached to my new account. I've found the password to my old one, but the new one's my main now, and I barely ever touch the old one anymore.

Absolutely not. If I lost my account that would be my cue to leave for good. I've been wanting to do that for a while.

No. I'm looking for an excuse to quit anyways.

Wouldn't feel like starting over to get back everything I once had on my 53 month old account.

I said No (probably). My account wouldn't be impossible to rebuild, but what I'm really attatched to are my main accounts pets. It is silly, but I've spent 7 years taking care of those pixels, and I'm not sure my game play would be able to remain the same if I didn't have them to deal with.

Plus I'd have to think of a new username, and I hate doing that.

I wouldnt start over. I'd constantly remember all the things I used to have, and be frustrated that I didnt have them anymore.

I don't think I would. I have the same account I've had for years, done a lot on it, gathered a modest amount of wealth.
If I lost everything I'd be pretty unhappy about it. And with the way Neopets has been going toward, I highly doubt I'd bother to start again.

Nope. I might make an account to come in to play a game or two occasionally, but I've spent 7 1/2 years on this. I think it would break my will to play seriously if I lost it all.

I'm the same way. I've had my oldest pets since I created my account, and it just wouldn't feel like neopets to me if I didn't have the same pets.

I voted No(probably) because, I'm would be angry for wasting all that time and hard work I put into my account. Especially the plot stuff and retired avvies.

My account have been scammed before and I did start over. Now I trust no one. The account that got stolen is now probaly worth over 10m now. Sad, once I think back.
