The article is urging competition. Competition is good!!! Take free email for an example. Gmail raised the average free email acount size from 2-10 MB to 100-250 MB. If Powerpets almost catches up to neopets, Neopets might do something good, like say, remove the banner ads.

Oh that would be the day. Hey, we used to only be able to own three, and then it bumped up to four. Why can't we bump it up...just once more?

I've never heard of powerpets before but like others have said competition is good!

If one group tends to have a monopoly on a certain thing then they become complacent. Competition means we get better stuff because they want to continue to be the best :)



And as for real life pets vs. virtual pets, the topic from page 1 of this thread, i am happy to be able to have a virtual pet, since as a kid my parents wouldnt let me have a pet, and now i live in an apartment that doesnt allow animals/dont have the time or money to care for a real pet.


Its fun for me because i get a little taste of what im missing out on minus all the costs and such :)

meh... real pets, neopets, nothing can beat nintendogs!


Lol... I'd love to have that myself! xD Reminds me of some game or something similar on the computer.

Now, just so I won't get off topic... this article is a relief after (or perhaps it was before?) PP's article about us. No, my correction. They couldn't make themself say 'Neopets'... too hard for them to admit the tough reality... PP isn't close to NP.

Whoo! :D Credits to Silja for the set!

I think for people who are unable to have pets, or if a kid wants to have a pet but doesn't understand what goes into caring for one- a virtual pet is the best way to go. If the kid can't remember to feed their virtual pet, play ith it, etc, it might not be best to let them have a real one.


Dunno. I forget to feed by Neopets from time to time, but my housemate's cat always gets fed on time. I think it's because my Neopets don't walk up to me and stare pointedly when they don't have food, or want their water to be changed, or want to sit in the chair I'm sitting in...

Did that ninetendogs remind anyone else of the various incarnations of Catz and Dogz? You know, with the little cartoon animals that you could pet and pick up with the mouse, and play with using little virtual toys? I used to have a Catz in college when I couldn't have my own pet. I still have a version on my computer, but now that I have a real cat (well, my housemate has a real cat) I really don't use it.
