Neopets was probably my first time delving headfirst into forums. It was a neat thing where you can join guilds, sometimes super niche ones where everyone is just as into the thing as you are, and just talk to similar-minded people.
It was a cool feeling as someone from a rural town in the middle of Canada.
Not sure how effective it is but under your profile settings there is a box you can uncheck that says "Show Bot Accounts"
Oh she is darling! She looks to be about the same size as our Ruby, who was also the runt! So happy to see ones as small as her haha. I would say Ruby is about 12ish pounds? At her last vet check in anyways. I feel like she hasn't gotten any bigger since.
Definitely need more random, absurd deaths in my life again.
Yeah my girl is just over 1.5 years now and her teething phase was really something else! Luckily for us she wasn't very adventurous due to how anxious she was so she never chewed on any she wasn't supposed to (except us 😂). She still loves to use her teeth to play but it's easy to divert her with a toy now. They are such goofballs.
So glad the rest of the training is going well!
Please do add more pictures! I say stuff about stories and advice but I love me some cute photos! Thanks for contributing!
Oh my goodness!! 😍😍
She is precious!! Mine loves to be in the weirdest positions too; usually bum up higher than the rest of her body, for whatever reason!
How are you faring with the puppy phase so far? Is she your first schnauzer?
It's been so long and they stepped right back into it like it was yesterday. The song is hard af and the trailer looks great. Hyped!
Long story short, we were supposed to have our pick of the litter and then when we inquired, she ended up being the only one left! She turned out to be very chill and quiet which suits us perfectly, so it was really meant to be. Just some issues with anxiety but who doesn't at this point.
Gandalf would be a great name! Really grow out the beard to match.
I guess I assumed that if the instance has a general stance on hateful, bigoted speech then any community attached within it would have to follow suit. Especially one tied specifically to the progression of the instance's community.
I don't feel like additional restrictions on Agora with that already in place is needed, imo.
Yeah, I'm not sure I agree.
Definitely understand your point, but this is the internet after all. Will I be reprimanded if I use "fucking" or "shit" to really make a point I'm passionate about? Is it okay if the context is alright? Is it bad if I use 2 curse words but 1 is okay? Who's to say?
Context will be big. Straight up vulgar, hateful speech is already not allowed, so I don't think we need to add to it unnecessarily.
Why is ranch so sublime? Seconded only by mayo as a condiment, but ranch goes so hard on pizza that I'm wondering if it should be in first because of this.
The early days of YouTube, spurred our own shitty video making within our group of friends. OG Neopets and Habbo Hotel were peak socializing with strangers on the internet. MSN allowed me to actually talk to people I knew in a way that was harder to do in person, helped me form relationships I wouldn't have normally had.
