brought me here 13 years ago from Neopets, Neo wasn't dead back then, but as soon as I started getting the hang of Subeta I fell in love with the site and userbase, and never looked back at Neo!

I've made some great memories here on Subeta, but my favourites have been battle related, in 2019 I managed to get my 5 wins against that dirty Meatslab and finally won a Baal, which I quickly turned into a Cronus Blade, and even more recently I hit the cap with my pet finally reaching t13!

My best memories would be the days I spent with my two closest friends here, one of which has passed away(Rest In Peace dear ) the other mysteriously disappeared one day never to be heard from again and I still miss everyday. They both filled my life with joy and laughter, always there to pick me up when I was down, sending gifts our just sweet messages. When I lost my dad they both were there for me when I felt like no one else was. Those were the best days of subeta I ever had. It’s never been the same since.

I'm really grateful for the friends on Subeta I've made over the years. Especially , who has been there for me through even the darkest of times. I probably don't say it enough but she's an amazing friend and I don't know how I would have survived these last few years without her.

I'm also super grateful for the TCG discord, where I've met some really wonderful people. Even if I lurk more than chat because of my own anxiety, your guys really make my day brighter. ❤️

10years and 9months since I have come here have seen me through many Sads and many Brights. I have shared weddings and births of grandchildren, made friends and shared in the lives of many people from all over the world. Sometimes I am here less and I always miss it when that happens! This is a great place for me and doesn't disappoint, even when there are lags and empty pages. I love the wardrobe options and the games and forums and mostly the warm and family environment. I am sending some hugs and a couple spares for you to save for later. ;-) You can ALWAYS stop by and get one PM.

Oh this thread is so nice! Thank you so much for encouraging everyone to share such amazing memories!

Mine is the first time I managed to beat Slavam in a Battle Quest. I had been poking around battles and buying cheap weapons for years at that point, but had never really invested. I felt like the first time I beat Slavam, I really started to think, hey with some hard work, I can actually do this. It's not an impossible barrier! Now he's super easy and I can laugh at how tough he used to seem, but it ended up being symbolic of how putting time and effort into something shows results.

Sorry to hear that you're down in the dumps. Thanks for hosting this great giveaway!

I'm another Neopets convert, and I was totally overwhelmed when I first got here.

and have been amazing friends, helping to teach me the ways of the site. They've definitely made my time here more enjoyable! :)

Shout out to and her great group

I totally hear you with the Sads. I'm back to being a mess over here, so this thread is perfectly timed.

This is kind of an ongoing thing, but something that's becoming a bit of fun is sitting down with my daughter and making HAs together. She's been sitting next to me saying, "I can't wait until I can play this game". It's just so stinkin' cute.

- Come check out this lovely giveaway. <3

Oh one of my happy memories, was to meet a comunity on discord lol they have competitions and chat about their real lifes sometimes, so thats nice for me. Also, I did some draws for them.

Subeta is the reason I started coding. For a while I had my own profile shop and I loved making stuff for other people. It got me thinking writing code was actually something I could do to make money. So when I was doing research at the uni and it wasn't going the way I wanted, I decided to write my own software that could do exactly the analysis I needed. This got me into a career in IT, after the funding for my research project fell through. I've been a software developer for 8 years and for the last two years I've been on the business side of IT, telling the developers what to make. I think this career would not have happened if I didn't make Subeta profiles all these years ago.

Now that I'm no longer a developer professionally I might go back to opening up a profile shop at some point :D (after I find the inspiration to make something of my own pets)

Besides this and now have always made me feel at home here! I love to chat on the forums!

I joined due to the pets, stayed due to the wonderful people I met and have continued due to the loving management that makes an effort to listen.

What a wonderful idea for a raffle!

Since returning from an extended hiatus a year ago, I love the friends I've made here, but ultimately I have fond memories of playing with my irl bff at the time when I first joined. We made so many OCs out of HAs and role played for years with them!

Another good aspect is learning how to code with CSS. While I'm very new to it still and rely on those who are more proficient in it than I am, the things I've been able to figure out on my own always make me feel proud!

Aw i love this idea ! In my earlier days on here i had a good friend and we would chat daily about subeta and real life. And at the time i was graduating high school and she mailed me this super awesome card congratulating me and a bunch of sweet messages. I still have this card today and cherish it! She doesn’t play on here anymore but she’s still my best subeta friend ❤

I was brought by my best friend/little sister who is longer here because someone had said she copied some artwork from another site or owner or something. So there is a long and deep sad history between me and her, she is 1 of the reasons I am alive today. But she has never copied or stolen any artwork I've known her since she was a petite and quiet brat at the age of 7. She is 1 of 3 triplets (kinda not really, she is the little cousin of twin girls I had met while I was a snot-nosed 10 yr old kid in an orphanage located in ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO.

I had a rough life, you could never imagine what I've been through, seen, and done some not-so-nice things. But I've done my time for the things I'm not proud of, but the things I learned while growing up saved not only my life but hers as well.

When she had given me her referral code, I was sitting directly across from her. I sighed, "alright so this website is the one who makes you all girly and giddy all the time when I come and visit you?" she nodded excitedly and would have screamed but I sadly remembered why she no longer could.

She had a very bad accident the day her account was frozen, I didn't understand it until I had read the email that was sent to her. We even had sent a video of her re-drawing the artwork in question. but that's not the point. I told her I wasn't interested and we would find something else we could do together.

I was sad she was no longer the same as she was before her accident but she eventually found other ways to express herself.

So Im grateful that her account was frozen, but not so grateful about her voice even though no one is at fault for that happening.

[FYI: this happened 8 years ago before i gave it a second thought of joining subeta. Hopefully, i don't get in trouble for mentioning what happened. But if not for her I would have never met you awesome people with who I have shared countless memories happy and sad.

The happiest memory I have from here actually happened during Luminaire (so a bit over a month ago) There was a CW that was on my WL for years that I really REALLY wanted, but wasn't available anymore, and I had no more hope about someday being able to get it. But then I was pinged in a giveaway where people were giving CWs and cash items for less fortunate people. Everybody listed 3 items they really wanted and the people giving away stuff would try to get such items for them. I listed 3 items that I knew I would never be able to get otherwise, and 2 of them were actually found! But the one I wanted the most was nowhere to be found, and I just accepted that I wouldn't be able to get it ever.

Then, days later, someone pinged me again in the thread saying that they found out who made the item, and that it was in the warehouse, and told me to try to reach out to the user. I sent them an smail explaining my situation and hoping that they would someday come back online to answer me, and then I got an answer two days later! The user took the item from the warehouse and put it for sale once again just so I could buy it! But I didn't have the CSC to buy it. USD is REALLY expensive in my country and I wouldn't have enough money to buy it, so I started grinding as much sP as I could to be able to get the CSC And that's when an angel from that same giveaway thread gave me a bunch of CSC gift cards and morty cards. With that person's help and a little bit of grinding sP, I was able to buy the item I wanted the most since I made my account here in subeta! I'll be eternally grateful to all the people that helped me in that thread, they were all amazing and generous people who wanted to help people who couldn't afford CSC and CWs, and I have to admit that I ended up crying multiple times because of how kind they all were to me. I'll never forget 2021 Luminaire

edit: The item I wanted the most is the pair of foxes my HA is holding right now <3

HI, THANKS FOR HOLDING THIS RAFFLE. :)

MY GOOD THING ABOUT SUBETA IS SUBETA ITSELF. 7 YEARS AGO I LOST MY EYESIGHT DUE TO A LIFE CHANGING ILLNESS. AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS AN AVID GAMER: GUILD WARS 2, FALL OUT 3, LEFT FOR DEAD, SECRET WORLD,VAMPIRE THE MASQUERADE: BLOODLINES, HAD JUST FINISHED A BFA IN CREATIVE WRITING WITH A MINOR IN GAME DESIGN AND WAS LOOKING FOR MY FIRST JOB IN THE INDUSTRY WHEN I BECAME ILL. SO WHEN I FOUND THAT I'D LOST MY EYESIGHT I WASDEVESTATED.AFTER YEARS OF RECOVERY I'D COME TO ACCEPT MY "NEW" LIFE BUT MISSED MY GAMES. EARLY LAST YEAR MY HUBBY CAUGHT WIND OF A PROGRAM THAT HELPED THE BLIND GET BACK ON THEIR COMPUTERS: JOB ACCESS WITH SPEECH (JAWS). HE LOOKED INTO IT AND THOUGHT IT WOULD BE A GOOD THING BECAUSE IT WOULD GIVE ME ACCESS TO MOST COMPUTER PROGRAMS. WHAT HE DIDN'T KNOW WAS THAT IT WAS USEFUL FOR BROWSING THE INTERNET , TOO. SO AFTER I'D COMPLETED THE TUTORIAL I OPENED CHROME AND TO MY AMAZEMENT SUBETA'S SIGN IN PAGE LOADED. I THOUGHT "WHY NOT" AND I SIGNED IN. I QUICKLY FOUND THAT THERE WASN'T MUCH I COULDN'T DO ON SUBETA. I WAS GOBSMACKED. AFTER THAT HORRIBLE ILLNESS , AFTER ALL THOSE YEARS OF RECOVERY, AFTER THINKING I'D NEVER PLAY A GAME AGAIN... HERE I WAS PLAYING A GAME. ON A COMPUTER. GRANTED, MY IMAGINATION HAS TO TAKE OVER WHERE MY EYESIGHT WOULD HAVE BEEN BUT I'D PLAYED SUBETA FOR YEARS SO I ALREADY KNEW WHAT EVERYTHING LOOKED LIKE. SO, I'M VERY GREATFUL FOR SUBETA. WITH THE HELP OF JAWS I GOT MY GAME BACK AND THAT HAS MADE ME VERY HAPPY.

Thank you for hosting this lovely giveaway!

I know I'm one of the younger users on subeta, only being a few months older than the site itself. But the people I've met here have always been so kind and supportive. I think one of my best memories was my first week on subeta, when the free shop was going on. It was so much fun going through the shoutbox and seeing all of the new items people were getting, and getting to know others. The environment here on subeta is just so loving, and I feel so welcome here.

i also have the sads, big ❤ to u!!! there are so many happy things with subeta, from personal goals to people who don't know how much i appreciate them because i am big shy & don't chat much but they've made an impression on me! c: in particular, someone commented about one of my pet's overlays which i recolored & encouraged me to start a shop, which i did! it's been a ton of fun & tbh great stress relief & has left me feeling useful which is a feeling i've missed for so, so many years now! c:

What a nice idea to collect memories to brighten everybodies thoughts! Well, I came here many years ago with a group of virtual friends from another pet site. We didn't feel home there anymore and so we made the decision to move on here together. We had a cult so we could talk to each other in a group and I think back then it was still allowed to use other languages apart from English. Anyway, life made leave one after the other, including me. Basically there were only two left of our old group when I came back on Subeta about a year ago. I felt lonely first. But then I was taken aback of the friendliness and helpfullness among people here. So many people helped out during events so I could catch up on the years that I missed. I was so spoilt at Lumi. sends me a GA monthly since the Quest-A-Thon. This site overcomes boarders like I never expierenced before.

thank you for making me feel the love <3 I hope you're feeling the love too <3
