101 Ways To Know You Are Addicted To Neopets
A big THANK YOU to Royalflushcard for making this great page just look amazing.
Of course any kind of avid player might think they are a little addicted, but here is a list of over 100 ways to tell if you are addicted to Neopets. The history behind the page is quite simple. Around the 16th of March 2007, I took a nap. While I did, I had a dream about playing Meepit Juice Break. It was at that moment I thought "Maybe I'm a little addicted to Neopets..." I posted it on the charter member premium boards and the topic kicked off from there. One thing became another, and the idea for this site just came to me.
