    The main use of refreshers and spiderers is to wander around neopets web pages and pick up some random events while doing so. I've never used one, but some people have gotten some pretty nice stuff from the REs. Codestones, neopoints, map pieces, and sometimes even paint brushes or morphing potions can be obtained from them.
    I think refreshers appeal to people because they have a very low freeze rate, but you definitely have to be patient with them.

    You just took me for a trip in a time machine.

    Waaaaaaay back in the day, I was introduced to Neopets at a babysitter's house. I was in grade 4, he was grade 6. He showed me how many np he'd got with his refresher program. I created an account there, and was amazed at how good he was haha. He had like 100k. Which was a buttload then. Hypno Helmet (H4k helmet now) was 5np haha


    Back in the day, there must have been way more random events, to give a guy 100k over a couple of days.

    Basically refreshers reload a page over and over again.

    I remember when someone realized that there were a HUGE amount of good "random winter events". People sat at the advent calendar for hours refreshing, getting PBs and stuff.

    Spiderers do the same thing basically.
