Hi everyone! I'm Zoa - found Subeta via a link in someone's siggy for Magistream. Am very pleased with joining here. I participate in a few pet-adoptable/click-to-grow sites, and kinda miss the whole gather/collect thing that used to be on Neopet. I'm an old-skool Neopet person, joined before they got really popular and I just cannot get used to all the changes there. I think I'll enjoy my time here more than there. :)

Only thing I feel is missing is a monkey-type of pet... sorry, is just how I am (being born in the year of the Earth Monkey myself - hehe). Or is there one and I'm missing it?

Anyhoo - I'm a web-geek (developer/publisher) and enjoy these sites as a distraction from coding and working on adapting business solutions into web apps. Born & raised in Hawaii, spent many years along the East Coast, came home because... well, Hawaii. :D Miss my sons and grandbabies in a major way - but we connect often via the web and sites like these.

Technology is grand.

Welcome to Subeta! I think you might be right, I can't think of a super ape-ish pet, except maybe the Common Experiment - perhaps you could make a suggestion on the forums (top of the page) :)

You seem like you're pretty savvy, but if you have any questions feel free to ask c:

Mahalo ! :D

That experiment looks cute! Now if it were purple... hehehe!

Thank you for the links. Right now about my only frustration is getting rid of an extra bookmark tab - dunno how to get rid of it.

If you really want you can actually also custom overlay (either via code on your pet's profile), or sitewide if you pay CSC

I have customCSS that hides the bookmarks view but have you tried 'Bookmarks' under Personal > User dashboard?

And thanks to everyone sending gifts! Been busy with a month-long competition over on Magistream, and now can relax and explore more here. YAY!

Welcome to Subeta. Maybe you would like the manchu, for a monkey pet?

Actually on second thought maybe the manchu is more of a raccoon... It could work for a monkey character though, especially if you got a pet overlay. Good luck!

Hello! Welcome to Subeta, I hope you enjoy your time here! I'm a year of the Boar-- come to think of it, we don't have a boar/pig pet either! The great thing about Subeta is that if you're missing something you think we should have, you can always head over to the Suggestions forum and pitch your idea and it might be picked up on by staff!

is right, there is the Manchu, but it's kind of more of a lemur than a monkey. Weird that we don't have an outright monkey pet.

I've always wanted to visit Hawaii but as a student have no way to make a conscientious trip there right now. Maybe in the future!

If you need any help, I'm always happy to answer questions!

:D You guys are all so nice!

Yeah, I looked hard at the Manchu for a while before going with the Ferret (fave pet - long stories there) - but am not really a Lemur person. :d

okay.... just got off work so going to relax a little bit, unwind, then go to bed. Has a super long/big day today - cleared 3 holds on my college registration and that was a whole lotta stress that finally went byebye! (returning to school after a long, fruitful career)

catch everyone later!

a hui hou!

Welcome to Subeta! My neopets account is valefor89. I still remember it! I joined when I was in the 5th grade. I've lost my password over the years :( It used to be fun, but you're right, the changes are just crazy!

I hope they get a monkey pet for you (even though I can't stand monkeys) ;)

I was born in the year of the Dragon, so there's lots of stuff here that could for for me!

Welcome to Subeta, though I'm not one, there are many Neopets alumni here. You should fit right in.
