VP Keeping me sane since 2006

lablover1993 · January 2012

On April 15 2006, I joined a site called VirtualPups.com, known to all of us as simply VP. When I started out, I was one of those annoying novices who know nothing about the game and begged you to buy my crappily stated dogs with no training. After a while I figured out what it meant to be successful on the game, and how to succeed. I made a few friends here and there, made a bit of petty cash making silly graphics before I figured out how to make good ones with GIMP (which I now am reteaching myself). I joined the forums in around 2008 and it changed the way I played and saw the game forever. I made so many new friends, some still around today and some from what I have gathered since being back, long long gone. Everyone for the most part was so nice and helpful, I made money off graphics, Eventing dogs, and a bit of novice training once I figured it out. VP was always a way for me to escape my real life problems, and keep me entertained for hours. I quit playing in about the summer of 2009 because I felt bullied after a while by some of the ... less nice.. players at the time. Well over Christmas break I decided to come back and I'm pretty sure I have come to stay. I've made so many new friends in these past few weeks, FINALLY gotten my sponsor kennel, and am in the process of saving for my second one, i'm on the second half of my first serious line of dogs, and soon will be purchasing my first gifty color. So thank you everyone new and old that I have made friends with, had questions answered from, been helped out by, and to VP in general for keeping me sane the greater part of six years. <3 always, -Labbeh

We're glad you have re-joined. I hope you have a more pleasant go-around this time. If you need anything, feel free PM me.

I'm glad that you decided to come back!

There will always be not nice people wherever you go, but so many more are lovely, especially those faithful ones on here. Anyhow, it'd good that you're enjoying playing now much more than before, and I completely found myself agreeing with exactly what you said about starting and breeding awful dogs, to joining the forums and becoming much more interested with the finer aspects of the game - the exact same things happened to me.

Feel free to PM me if you're ever in want of something!

Nice to have you back! Agreeing with waht you said about the breeding bit and the forums... exacaly what I did :P I asure you that there are alot more nicer people on here now. And if you ever get picked on again, just PM me and I'll eat them for you

Or you can use my shotgun... BANG BANG BANG. MWHAAA *Coughs* Ye.. I may need to give you a little warning though, people round here are a tiny bit craizy. Well, more like mad I would say

Hmmm, cheese... Oh and people round here quite like cheese.. so be careful when carrying any around here, theres a load of cheese-eating theifs around. Grrr, back off from the cheese! Ye, just a tiny bit mad.

I agree! Whenever I need to get something outta my mind I usually come on the forums, and my mood is changed by either Vampy saying something funny or just any of my friends being...well, friends. ;D

N'aww thanks guys

Its good to be back! I think this time I'll stay for good. unless I die or something which would suck.. or the evil thing called being a history major eats me.. which is also possible. I'm I am not the only one who will admit to once being THAT novice XD and Collie, I dont like cheese

so I think I will be safe, though the randomness may come back after time

I do not know where I would be without you! We were those "annoying novices" together; way back when I thought a dog with 100 in disc was fully trained (:

Howdy, Stranger!
