I just feel so lonely in this game.. I'd like to have some friends.. I'm starting to get depressed again about many things I loved back in the day and how they've changed... maybe I've also changed... I don't want to quit again.. can someone make me love this site and community again?

@solaris Thank you so much! I know this sounds weird but I think I want to look at your profile through the years on the wayback machine. I did that with mine and it was fun and bittersweet 😋

@lilacblack

I did go on hiatus a few times. Maybe that’s why!

@izziedragon

Yeah! It’s a website that will show you what a certain webpage used to look like! (If it’s been archived.)

I actually got one back from a really understanding user ❤️ and looking for a bunthof to trade for another one that is like one of my first pets.. God I loved that old dragon a lot

Oh that's nice! tbh I don't think I've seen you around, but I'd love to do it and know more about you!

Ikr, I'm most personally attached to the beta that dark green was everything for me and the actual food you could give to the creatures it's just *chef's kiss* In the urls I posted just replace your username 😊 It's that easy, I already did the hard work of remembering how to do it so it's just a matter of changing the username .

You couldn’t pick the food or anything, it was just random when you would click feed! I used to play a game with myself to see if I could guess what food would come up next. Lol
