i played neopets religiously in 5th grade and my mom bought me 23 neopets on ebay for my birthday and i would stuff them in a little toy bus and jump on the trampoline and the last one to stay in the bus was the winner now i just go to work and pay bills and hate my life
Is this the unrelated dunkey meme contest? Because pretty sure I'm the best. Not even close babyyyyy Do you remember that one time dunkey beat sky in smash? spaghetti and meatballs DID SOMEBODY SAY KNACKKKKK? Try and beat me boi
"Macy Gray is a very special Neopet. She uses her amazing singing voice to charm other pets into being her friend. Watch out for her ray gun though!" Believe it or not folks this is real, this was in the game. What a world we live in.
To add to the public domain of info, my research also said that the game was originally developed for college students who couldn’t keep pets on campus so that’s why they had weird ass pets like Macy Gray
@@Xernvalt "originally developed for college students who couldn’t keep pets on campus so that’s why they had weird ass pets like Macy Gray" But her picture was a Black singer xd
neopets used to be awesome tbh the plots and site events were really fun and since all the good stuff was extremely expensive people actually dedicated their time to earn nps thus the site was really active, so back in the day this site was worth that money
Utonium Ph. D. How the "mighty" have fallen Honestly this looks entirely built upon its community (in short, it wouldn't be what you call popular without the hardcore fans) But that doesn't at all make it good Everything ever has some sort of fan base now a days, and I'm sure this video came from a so bad it's good pov
they don't die btw. The pets literally stay on "dying" forever. I would know since I forgot to feed mine for a year and came back and played it up again.
I remember once my brother left it to stay in that hotel for about 100 days, with every possible benefit the hotel offered, then he never signed into the account again. Wonder how much neopoints he owes them
My dad, one of the most important members in the board of directors of Viacom lost most of his money when he played a minigame of the neopets site, he lost 13 neopoints ( 1 billion dollars adjusted for inflation )
The Fedderation well it's the first time they officially addressed the biggest issue of the game. they called it Sun and Moon because you see both of them in the time it takes to spin da wheel
My RU-vid says you left a comment 17 hours ago whivh got replied to 23 hours ago. Twice. So your a time traveler, and thus your prophesies are cheating. Or RU-vid is telling me false information.
"My neopet is dying. I'm going to feed it a knife" I don't know what I found funnier in that situation: A. The fact that Dunkey named his neopet 'stupid_idiot_2000' B. The fact that he fed a KNIFE to said neopet C. The fact that it didn't kill the neopet OR D. The fact that after the neopet ate it, he went from dying to starving.
Yes and your neopet caught the neorabbies and had to start neohooking itself out for neopoints for more neosmack to make it thru the neoday. Please do not respond to this neomessage.
I know that sometimes it's hard to decipher when Dunkey is trolling or being sarcastic, but let me assure you that the pet "Kau" literally used to be Macy Gray holding a ray gun. That is not him trolling. It's real.
It wasn't just any black woman. It was Macy Gray. They also had a pet based on Bruce Forsythe. In fact, it wasn't just based on him, it was literally just a cutout photograph of him. Don't ask me. I don't know why either of them were a thing, either. All I know was that they were changed due to copyright concerns.
if I remember rightly you needed to say a cheese from the neopet universe. I recall finding out a cheese then when I tried to use it it was stupidly expensive
Muhammed Abdul-Ghaffar Maybe it's just at a stand-still until someone overhauls it. The site still has that Windows XP feel to it. The flash games don't even play properly because the newest version of Flash can't run them properly.
Your not the only one. When I was younger I would play this sometimes...I remember hoping to get this paint brush in the game that makes your pet look like a pretty fairy soooo bad...XD Now 9 years later I look at it again and I'm like, wow...o.o I must of had nothing better to do back then.
Why would you ask for real life cheeses in a game that takes place in an imaginary land called Neopia with imaginary made-up animals? Are you stupid, Addison? His gf was right, he should've put brick cheese... or dung cheese... those are cheeses that can actually be used in that game. You search on google: "what cheeses can be used in Cheeseroller?" Jeez you obviously never played Neopets. xD
The wheel of monotony takes 2 hours because it's called the wheel of MONOTONY. xD It's not broken. It works like it was designed to. Spin it and then open a new tab and do something else while you wait. Not that hard. xD There's like 7 other wheels you can spin that only take 10 seconds if you're lazy. There's nothing wrong with the site, he just purposely picked some of the oldest/worst flash games and most boring features for comedic effect.
i got really into it a year ago like i'm fucking rich now on my account and have rare pets but like i literally never played the games :p there's a lot to do on the site. it's pretty fun still if you know what you're doing.
I saw this on the stream live, it was freaking amazing, when Lea closed the wheel on accident he litteraly stopped the stream and said " welp there it is, she closed it, it's done " xD it was so funny
Well you could just search " dunkey stream " and click the first link but there it is : twitch.tv , is he's twitch stream , he rarely stream , and sometimes he tweet before he streams but it's rare so yeah.
how did make a team of baby elephants who accepts a quest from Chomby and The Fungus Balls? BY EATING A CAN OF HALLOWEEN POISON BONES AHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA
My father used to work on the large house owned by the family who created Neopets. They're very wealthy Scientologists in LA. They paid a lot for a custom ice sculpture of the neopet at 7:13 to use at their xmas party.
Neopets website and its entire aspect is a joke. The Staff actually are away from the computers 24/7 while the auto monitor bans it's users for anything.
Hulaette Sorta, neopets was bought from viacom, and jumpstart got that rights for it. Jumpstart fired the original staff members, and replaced them with a shitty, poorly coded censor list. There was a raid 2 years ago.
This website was the best part of my childhood. I still have my pink and white Aisha door hanger from when I was a small girl. Thanks for all the programmers' beautiful work. Love you guys!
Ah man I'm in my mid 20s and this video still makes me wanna relive the neopets days. There were some actually good games on there. Especially the old school rpg, I still have such strong memories of it 10+ years later
im about a year late but if you mean neoquest it's still playable, the other games are kinda... dead bc of flash but if you download a browser with flash theyre playable too
If I had to pick one video to completely forget, just to be able to rewatch it again like I did the first time I saw it, it would be this video. It’s, how you say..... a masterpiece.
@@nevereverstopsinging the company that bought from viacom doesnt know wtf theyre doing. also you cant play 70% of the games now, they died with flash.. yet to be converted
$160 mil. for this turd? How was that even profitable? Wiki article even says that Viacom re-sold the game to another company for unknown ammount. WHAT THE FUCK?
I was pretty active on Neopets way back when Viacom bought it. They ended up flooding the site with ads and added in cosmetic micro transactions. Plus the game had quite a bit of merchandise and two console video games. At the time, the website was absolutely profitable. Since then, it definitely died down a ton, which is why Viacom sold it to Jump Start whom has zero idea how to keep it running and updated. At this point, the website is pretty much stuck in 2003 in terms of functionality and appearance. I can't imagine it's particularly profitable anymore.
neopets used to be HUGE, i remember a promotion back in 2006 when they included a neopet plush in every happy meal at mcdonald's for a while. my brother, cousin, and i used to play it all the time
Uros Serdar well you got a virtual pet you took care of by feeding it and it could starve to death. just like tamagachi but with shitty flash games and it was on a computer so your big brother couldn't steal it from you in revenge for using your 1994 gross-out toys to freak out his girlfriend like in the commercial. because this was the 90s and we were all idiot kids
When I first watched this video a year and a half ago, I thought "Kau" being a black woman was just a joke Dunkey put together. Today I learned that it's actually fucking real.
dunk, I want to thank you for providing this entertainment for all of us. my brother recently passed away but we would always make it a routine to get together and watch your newest video together. you were the only RU-vidr we sincerely enjoy watching. thanks again for helping me make fond memories of my brother.
If he hasn't logged in quite a while, the account might have been purged, hence the suffering ends. Can't say the same for pets thrown into the pound with random number/letter combinations in their names though.
My guess for the wheel that takes 9 hours is that it was meant for kids to like leave the game on while they were at school or something so when they got home they got a little reward or something I guess.
Man, you should have seen Neopets back in the early-mid 2000’s. It was almost all static HTML and had a staff of like 6 full-time people total, all from the UK, and boy howdy...they did not give a fuck about being kid-friendly. Hell, they didn’t give a fuck, period. There were like random events which could give you the best items in the game OR steal all of your Neopoints or best item *in your bank* OR straight up kill one of your Neopets in some gruesome way. Just by walking around. It was chaos. It was just one huge, trippy ass in-joke that the developers perpetuated seemingly for their own amusement, since this was back before they started doing sponsorship deals or digital currency shit. They weren’t making diddly squat for years, they just loved trolling and scaring the shit out of children on the internet under the guise of a cute fun video game that made absolutely no sense.
@@themagician3032 That's because they're lying. There's tons of videos on how neopets came to be and while it wasn't as kid friendly for like it's first year it was never as this person claimed it to be. I played in 2003 before it had digital currency or anything of the sort, and while the parts about the items you'd get from events are true your pets would never die and your account *would get frozen for cussing on the forums or if your art for the weekly drawing contest was too risque.
Rice Crackers the song is from a old sonic game that was easy to find But the game itself its somekind of MEME Flash game i know where to ask and i know i will find it if i ask but i am ashamed to ask for asking in that place brings shame to the one who adresses the question
Damn, I made my Neopets account long ago when I was like 13. What a lovely shit it was, like, coming home from school and spending some hours playing in that platform daily, for like two years or some. Loved the diversity about places, mini-games, events, stories, misteries and stuff. Then it started to decline progressively and I started forgetting it out with time, entering the site with less and less frequency until I left it at some point I can't figure out. I'm 22 right now and after years of oblivion this shit just came out to my mind for apparently no reason, so I wanted to log in once again and search on the internet to see how are things going. Oh dude, the nostalgia, now that I think, my time in Neopets was one of the few good times I had during my teen age.
donkey channel for sure is the only channel with a 90% chance that the links in the description are dead. It defies the stats of every other channel I have seen this in. After just a few years sometimes. Heartbreaking
Neopets used to be great, before the userbase exploded. The last time I used it was probably around 2002 and I literally couldn't do anything because the shops and what-not would sell out in 2 seconds. Even my own shop would sell out in 5 minutes. Then they banned my account for an inappropriate username when I hadn't even logged in in 5 years. The username? Skez. As in my childish nickname, Skezter. Maybe my pet "Skezie" is still on there somewhere, idk. Somehow I still remember my first username (of course Nsync related) and my first pet's name: Pilafin. She was an Aisha and I genuinely adored her and was horrified when I went to move her to my new account using the adoption center trick and someone snatched her before I could. Thirteen year old me was literally heartbroken. I ran a bomb-ass guild too, lots of members and a good ranking. Ahh, thanks for the walk down memory lane, typing this giant ass novel was cathartic.
