i regularly see neopets invoked in nostalgia-bait posts and constantly have to tell people that it still exists! it's being updated! you can have a shitton of pets now! it's a capitalist hellscape mess riddled with bots and a 1% that loves to throw tantrums at every attempt to make the site more equitable. however it is my mess and i think people should play it anyway.
this site is broken and a mess and really only useable if you mod the hell out of it. you think i'm kidding but i'm not. for whatever reason, violentmonkey doesn't like some of these. currently recommend tampermonkey for running userscripts.
