I was big into neopets as a kid, mainly the battling. I was one of the more wealthy people on the site in terms of weapon value and cash in the bank.

When I stopped I gave all my stuff to my friend, I don't know what she did with it, probably sold them.

I vaguely remember how expensive some of the weapons were.

Neopets became news for a little while earlier this year when it was discovered that before Viacom bought it the site was ran by Scientologists and pretty much a recruiting tool for them. Of course Viacom bought the site in 2005 so for most of its existence it has had little to do with that cult.

Indeed. I thought that was known for longer though; feels like I heard about the Scientology thing sooner.

I was addicted to this bowling game they had where you controlled the ball and had to avoid obstacles to hit the pins.

Cheat! was MY SHIT. What a good lesson to teach kids too. If you think you can cheat and get away with it, fuckin go for it kid.

Edit: Just realized it's just Bullshit with Neopets.

I was into it for awhile, until my account got banned without explanation. I can only assume they thought I was cheating at the games somehow (even though I wasn't) because my scores randomly disappeared off the leaderboards a few times before that happened. No desire to go back since they clearly didn't give a shit about their userbase.

Aisha was my favorite Neopet though

I remember webkinz and getting scammed due to my internet having problems and reloading the page 3 times while attempting to buy something and it charged me each time for it and didn't even give me the thing at the end. The plushies were still cute though

Gotcha. Like I said I've been playing since mid 2000, so I remember when Bruce first got discovered.
