Lesson of the day? Don't get attached to virtual pets that live on someone else's servers. It feels a bit like someone snuck in and replaced Spike and Squish with badly-made poseable plastic dolls while I was sleeping. And then expected me to be pleased about it.

And yeah, they've changed the personality thing on everyone. :( "Hi, I'm a two-headed, mutant freak with a taste for world domination and YOUR SOUL, and I'd... act really friendly."
No. Just. Noooo!

Tell me about it. Snarkwing's a right bastard when you get to know him - hello, PIRATE? Plunder, burn and the other thing? And Snarktobriana (the Pteri) is a sarcastic bad-tempered bitch who pretty much loathes everyone. And she's a soldier. And suddenly - her hobby is gathering food?

DO NOT WANT.

The only one that fits the description of my four is Minnata the Egyptian hippy. XP And maybe nellaixy, she was supposed to be just my adopted lab ray pet after I got the other three the way I wanted them. She lacks in personality yet.

I love your pet names. XD

Thank you XD

I always loved Desert Kaus - also, one of the few pets that hasn't been transformed into a loathsome travesty of itself. Lucky Minnata.

I never got a lab map for my main account because I already had them all the way I wanted them. My poor Grarrls on my side account, though - they look like balloon animals now. And one of them is missing his mouth.

I can quite easily see myself leaving neo over this, and just keeping my pets alive in their true incarnations over at my Neopets RP community... that's where they really live. They're a bit too inclined to behave in ways unsuitable for the Neopets site itself.
