First off, HELLO! I was thrilled to come across this site yesterday and had a blast my first night here. I used to play on another site years ago, (i'm sure you all know which one) so this place has made me so very happy.

Since I'm still figuring things out, I was wondering if someone could answer a few questions for me.

*What's the best way to keep pets fed and happy (besides the resort)? Do I have to feed and play with them one item at a time? *On that 'other' site, I used to collect Usuki dolls. I loved them to bits. Is there anything like that to collect here? Obviously not yet, since I'm new, haha, but in the future. *If I throw my pet in the Rift, can I lose it?

Thank you so much! Again, I'm so very happy to be here. <3

Welcome! We're really glad you could join us and that you became part of the community!

To answer your questions: The best way to keep pets happy is to give them a minion. Minions are sort of like Petpets and they keep your pet's happiness at 10. As for feeding, unlike Neopets, your pets won't get sad or sick if you don't feed them. The only real benefit you gain from feeding your pets is if you want one of them to be a gourmand (eat all the food items on-site) or if you want to have your pets battle. Otherwise, you don't really have to worry about feeding them.

There are many things Subeta offers to collect! Here we have sticker, plushie, beanbag, minion, pumpkin, bobblehead, tile, pastry, and trading card collections. Some collections have much rarer items than others, but if you want to check out all your options, just go to this page and scroll down to the "Collection" section.

If you throw your pet in the Rift, you will get it back within 24-72 hours. It will be altered to a different color (and potentially a different species if a Rift color has not been released yet for your pet), so only throw it in if you're okay with it being altered in some way.

If I could give you any more advice, I would tell you to visit and bookmark SubetaLodge.org. They're the biggest and best Subeta fansite. Good luck on your endeavors!

Thank you so much, Galadriel! I love your name, by the way. I'm a huge Tolkien fan.

I've equipped each pet with a minion. I won a few from games and purchased a couple cheap ones too. They're so cute and I love the variety.

I took a chance and threw my created pet into the rift before reading your reply. I freaked out a bit when he was swallowed whole, so thank you for reassuring me that he's not lost! I don't mind if he's altered as long as he stays male. He was named after someone, otherwise it wouldn't matter.

I think I'm going to collect the Fairy dolls. It's good to have goals!

Thank you again! <3

Just wanted to say welcome to this site! ^-^ I enjoy it soooo much more then neopets tbh. You can basically talk about whatever you want and not worried about getting frozen LOL if you want a new friend you can add me :3

Ugh, the fear of getting frozen was real! I'm having a blast so far and think this place is going to be my new addiction! LOL. I would love a new friend, thank you! You'll be my first. <3

Welcome to the site!! I was a huge fan of Neopets too and obsessively collected Usuki dolls! I've been in love with the plushies so far especially the dawn ones! If you want more friends I'd love to be friends too!

Everyone is so nice here, thank you!! <3

I always wanted a real life Usuki Doll. I wondered why they never marketed them. I'll send you a friend request!

Oh, my pet came back from the Rift and ahhhhhh! He looks horrendous, but it also made me laugh, so no harm done! ;)

It sounds like others have answered your questions. Just wanted to say that if you have any others, don't hesitate to reach out!

Also, sent you a little gift :)

You all are so lovely! I appreciate it more than you know.

One more question. Hope that's okay! I'm trying to get a background for my human avatar, but whenever I select one, everything else disappears. What's up with that? LOL.

Thank you for the welcomes, the friend requests and the gifts. I'm so glad I decided to join. <3

Drag the backdrop layer to the bottom of the list of items you are wearing (in the wardrobe), and also make sure it is under your HA base as well. Hope that helps.

Thank you ! I will try that.

Your avvie is gorgeous! <3

hi there! welcome to subeta!! :) it appears your questions have been answered, so i'll throw one at you: what do you like most about the site so far?

p.s. i love that you've got the castiel rag doll! the rag dolls in general are so cute and collectible imo

Can I choose your gif, ? ;)

Honestly, there are a few things I like most. These aren't in any order, the variety of pets, (Angel pets are especially amazing!) the human avvie and the vast choices, the friendliness I've experienced so far and the Quests that aren't impossible. I also like that it's easy to make sp. I never made a lot of neopoints on Neopets because the only game I was good at was that archery one. LOL. This place has something for everybody that is also appreciated.

Thanks again for the welcomes! <3

Your avatar is so gorgeous!! I've also been pleasantly surprised with the easy quests. I lived off of the soup kitchen on Neopets so it's nice to be able to make decent money pretty easily! And the angel pets are so cute!! I really want a sweetheart one too oh and blacklight and spectrum!! I just love how cool this site is!!

thank you! Yours is adorable. I love the pets, the wings and the flag. I tried to put on wings, but they didn't show up well.

I loved the soup kitchen, It saved my pets lives. LOL. The relaxed atmosphere is so much better here, though. No fear! <3

Haha, sorry for the late reply! I didn't get a ping from you so I hadn't realised you'd replied ^^;

You're very welcome and if you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask! You can also add me as a friend if you'd like :) I love Tolkien and LotR - glad to find another fan!
