    Haha, oh God.

    I used to spam trade posts with those chain messages "Post this 10 times in trade and get a free paint brush!" or whatever.

    Those were the days


    Edit; woops didn't see the post above lol

    I once believed that there was absolutely no way to cheat at anything neo-related.
    I am happy I'm wrong :D

    I thought that if you didn't feed your pets, they would die. Good thing that isn't true or I would be in trouble :D
    I also tried to get 1 million from Coltzan, and I really thought Jelly World didn't exist since it wasn't on the map.

    I believed your pets would die too, after leaving them for several years only to return and see them alive and doing well squashed that myth :)

    Even though I can't get into one of my accounts because of the stupid birthday thing... So, they all could be dead o_O

    I thought Meerca's were the best pet because on the default Meerca petpage, it said "Psst...Meerca's are the best pet!" or something like that.

    I believed that if you abandoned a neopet that was already painted with a paint brush, you will get the neopet with a basic color, and the paint brush in your inventory one week later.
    I heard that it was a scam, but it was too late. :[

    A Faerie Poogle. But the paint brush was around 250k at the time, so it's not much of a loss.

    Most definitely. I'm pretty sure that at that time, I thought 50k was pretty freaking rich. :p

    I didn't know such a rumor existed though. The one about abandoning a pet. O-o The things people come up with...

    Yeh Coltzans Shrine 1 million.

    I also believed in the wishing well, Fountain Faerie giving out free colours at a certain time, and that it was impossible to be the top score for any game.

    I got top score for Round Table Poker with 2340.
