Hey guys, I've never actually posted here before, but I believe some of you may remember me from the Eastern Isle Market... It's been years since I've been involved in any type of cyber adoption, and really a year since I've even had the internet. I was browsing around, and stumbled into here. I had no idea cyber adoptions would still be around! How serious is the crowd of adopters still? Has it died down alot? I'm eager to get back into all of this! Here are some of the creatures I used to sell at the Market: I also made Triffets, but I don't have any examples of them. So, would any of you still be interested in these? Or should I try to come up with something different? I don't know what everyone is into anymore =( Does anyone even remember me!? Hope so! =) Does everything work the same nowadays? Or have things evolved more? I've seen mention of genetics, and even the adoptables being paid for with money. Someone fill me in please! lol sorry guys! Thanks! -Dana Lou PS, I would love to register, but it wont load the registration page!

Those are TOO CUTE! ;D I would definitely go for them! ;3 I'm pretty sure I recognize your style, too. I think us cyberpetters are all over new and interesting ideas, or fresh new spins on old favorites like unicorns and dragons. Essentially, if you're good at what you do, we'll like it!

Both EI and DragonSpirit markets are pretty much dead now. However, Shivuez Clouds has sprung up as a market, and I believe Fire market is still going as well. Free draws here are also fun. Shivuez link: shivuezclouds.proboards3.com/index.cgiTo answer your questions, genetics are still popular, but adoptions requiring a premade page are pretty rare these days. The latest thing does seem to be comissioning creatures with RL money.

Well I don't like commisions cause I don't have any money to pay for those things>.< though the market stuff is fun cause there are tradings, a special case commission that is worked in with gems and all that fun stuff^^ Then the draws are pretty fun as well...and I LOVE how the Triffen and triffet's look <3<3<3<3 you have some really cute stuff^_^ I normally hang out at Shivuez cause the orchard seemed to kindof died down with draws and such>.<;;

A lot of the "normal" crowd that was around when I first started is now in or done with college. Most have grown out of cyperpets and gone on to other hobbies, but there are still some of us that hang around.

Shivuez still gets daily visitors, and I sell Rivets there. I do remember your name. Ah, the good ol' days of EIMP x.x... It's not like it was when the Markets were in their full glory, but it's still great fun. =) PS- those guys are adorable- I'd adopt one in a heartbeat. XD

I've never seen those before but they're wonderful ^_^ Yeah, the premade page thing has pretty much died out, lots of people grew up, got jobs or went to college/university and discovered they didn't have enough free time for that anymore. Though if its something really good people will make the time I think Festivals and contests have suffered in a similar manner. The past couple of months things have been pretty dead around here. I dunno if we've suddenly had a big percentage of our community here go off to new schools and they need to focus, or maybe its just a natural downtime, preparing to pick up again sometime soon. I know things have been pretty crazy at home with family medical issues so that's kept me away quite a bit. But its always great to have people come back after a hiatus. And to have new critters on the scene.
