going back to my friend who talked about a neopets saga, she said this about it:

"ugggh i just remembered something that annoys me a lot
on SA there was a neopets nostalgia thread and that was fine
we were all logging into our 15-year dormant accounts and fussing over our dying akaras and poo poo
but then all these 30yo women started taking it really seriously bc goons are terrible
that neednt have been so bad, a lil odd but not super weird
but then they started posting all the best ways to min-max ur neopoints and how to get the TOP TIER ACCESSORIES and it turns out the fastest way to get them is entering competitions for like, art or short stories
but it's a kids' game, so the judges aren't going to just give the top prizes to ppl who are obviously adults, so they were posting all these fuckin strategies for drawing/writing to seem like a child
so they could basically steal the dumb neopet digital toys from the actual kids who used the site"

lmfao

I'm completely overwhelmed by all of the support and congratulations and just everything, thank you all so much.

I do owe a proper update so here's what happened!

I'm actually living with some friends I made at work, back when I was still on the day shift! They started a weekly Game of Thrones night thing and I was invited so every Sunday I'd go over and hang out and we'd watch Game of Thrones together, laugh, eat chips and it was such a nice reprieve from everything. They didn't know I was homeless because I don't really tell people at work that, I didn't want people there to look down on me, but I did often mention that I was looking for a "new place" in case anyone knew of cheap apartments.

A little over a week ago we got together for an impromptu "Work Sucks Post Season Lets Have a Movie Night", and eventually all started talking about roommate horror stories and I mentioned the two guys I met on craigslist, the creepy weirdos, those guys. "Road, you're still looking for a place?" "Yeah, it's been rough." "We are looking for a roommate, we have an unused bedroom here. I didn't know you were looking for a place with roommates I would have offered it sooner!"

Getting me on the lease took a bit of time so when I say "officially" moved in, I mean I've been crashing there for a few days but now I'm on the lease!

I told myself I'd have a place before my birthday, that was my goal even though every month it just kept falling through, but drat it I made it with three days to spare (and just in time, with the tropical storm coming).

This has been a hell of a time and I'd say it doesn't feel real but this bed is warm and soft and comfy, and it's all mine. I finally have a place now and I can start rebuilding my life. It's fantastic.

I'm fairly sure my roommates would not be terribly please with my posting the address on a forum. But I can give it over PM if anyone would like to send/receive letters

Thank you guys so much for reading this year long thread and for all the overwhelming support and just.. everything. It means so much to me and I don't think I would have made it this far without all of it. Thank you guys.

According to a mod in there, Cuntellectual is in the queue to be hopefully perma'd for today's stunningly embarrassing display of concern trolling to harass the trans thread, while unconvincingly and falsely claiming ignorance about what FYAD is.

But I'd like to just point out some context for this post by ArfJason.

Two FYAD posts from Cuntellectual this year and 3 more posts in 2016 (in the IK selection thread nonetheless) is precisely what it looks like when a FYAD regular accidentally leaves their alt account signed in while replying in the pink forum.

Obviously. A rando account that only literally only posts in games otherwise has no explanation for jumping in the Trans thread while claiming to know intimate details of FYAD drama.

Jack Daniels even immediately probed them both times in 2016, for accidentally using the wrong account. Going by their post history, it's the alt account that a FYAD regular used exclusively for games forum posting, to build up post history in there as their cover for whenever it was time to bring that alt out. Really basic online griefing trick. They hosed up once or twice but no one found those needles in a haystack until a mod decided to do a lot of manual digging after a serious callout.

You, a leading FYAD regular, know that this was a case of a FYAD alt account, and that it often happens that way by accident. Someone as close friends with the others likely knows exactly whose alt it was that just got got. Stop coming in here to bullshit the rest of us. Kindly show yourself the door and stay the gently caress out of these threads where you're constantly 100% manipulative, just like that poster in the Trans thread was today, instead of immediately barging in to do damage control for how their story gets retold.

There were kids when it was new, and it was definitely kid-marketed, but that was almost 20 years ago. I can't imagine there are kids on it now.

Neopets was one of those games where in-game currency generated infinitely and there weren't a lot of ways to permanently remove the money from the economy, like Gaia Online. Gaia's economy got even more hosed because of even more infinite-money-generating cash shop items, but either way most of the sick-rear end poo poo was out of reach for all the preteens and teens that made up the userbase. So yeah, all the really successful accounts were run by adults who could sit at the computer for days or who could operate cheating programs subtly enough that the game's moderators wouldn't notice.

Actually, Red Bard put out a pretty cool video on the rise and fall of Gaia a while ago:
