Welcome to Subeta! Nice username pick :) A lot of our community have played similar games such as Neo in the past (or maybe still are) - myself included! A lot of people switched over as I believe there have been some staff shortage/site content issues there, I don't really go there myself much any more, but I have had my account for a very long time so I do still pop in to check on things, but they've had so many security compromises I got tired of rebuilding and losing everything.

Hopefully you'll enjoy it here! Our forums work a little slower as compared to old neoboards, but if you feel like you need a faster chat environment we have the Shoutbox too :) Like you may have noticed, a lot of Neo converts point out how friendly our community is, possibly because we have a strict one account policy so there aren't so many trolls etc., but don't woprry if you like darker themed items we have those too ;)

I'm sure your friend is showing you around, but don't be a stranger if you've any questions!
