eh? who cares if its childish? I suppose you dont like super mario either because it has "childish" graphics.

I used to go there often, but then it got boring for me after a while.

This sig has been dullified!

Mario and neopets are completly different things. Neopets was designed for little kids, mario wasn't

Back when my son was younger, he was a Neopets fan. I used to play some of the games and give the loot to him. There are some nice card games hidden in the mix such as Cheat.

Neopets was recommended to me a while ago when I was around its target age, but it required too much dedication on my part

I often end up with little 'occasions' where I'd be addicted to it, but my last one was about summer... Infact only in March this year my school had a craze for neopets.

Does anyone remember digi pets? I used to play with those, they were all the rage in school... I remember I couldn't take care of them too long because of school... and you know.. my mom doesn't even know how to turn a computer on, so good luck trying to work a digi pet. So I'd try and put it in my backpack, then at the end of the day, I'd find that it has aquired all sorts of diseases and stuff, and soon after it would die...

Good times, good times...

Never used a "neopet" before...


WooT!

I remember when they were new... I was (& am) homeschooled so there was no peer pressure aspect, but I was really interested until I realized how damn ugly they were. Really a huge waste of cash, but then, I can't think of any popular product among kids that isn't, due to a lack of child advertizing restrictions in the US.

Oh dear, that went off topic. Mouse you moron
