world of Neopia. Visitors can create an account and take care of up to four virtual pets, buying them food, toys, clothes, and other accessories using the virtual currencies: Neopoints and Nickcash. Neopoints can be earned through playing games, investing in the game's stock market, trading, and winning contests, while Neocash must be purchased with money, although certain events may allow users to earn Neocash for free. Users can explore the world of Neopia with their Neopets and interact with each other through the Neoboards, NeoMail, guilds, and Key Quest.
Neopets has been available in many languages since 2004 -- including Spanish, French, Portuguese, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, German and Dutch.
Neopets began way back in 1997 in a dingy little computer room by Adam Powell and Donna Williams. The site was launched on 15th November 1999. Originally it was meant for "bored college students who missed having a pet".
I made my first account in 2004 as gamergirl09. I returned in 2008 as xxfallensnowangelxx and have been a loyal user ever since! I never imagined I would play Neopets again, but it's so fun when you have free time. And yes, you are allowed to have four pets; Premium users can, in fact, now have five pets.
I joined Neopets in 2001 after my sister told me about how fun it was. Of course, I never wrote down my password (username was FimFoo1000) and now my account is lost forever... -.-
Oh... I got confused, I thought when neopets said every account now has to have 3 pets, I thought they ment EVERY account. It turns out that some people can now only have 3 pets!
