Neopets was probably my first time delving headfirst into forums. It was a neat thing where you can join guilds, sometimes super niche ones where everyone is just as into the thing as you are, and just talk to similar-minded people.
It was a cool feeling as someone from a rural town in the middle of Canada.
My daughter joined Neopets in its early days, when she was about 13 or 14. She's 34 now and still active there.
I don't think I ever delved I to their forums. Or if I did it was too early of a memory to recall. I know I was on ign and smash forums.
