TOPIC | Let's Talk about Forgotten Websites
It wasn't a flash game deal like everyone has mentioned so far, but there was a site I used to visit that was called, like, TeamRocketRockin or something like that. It was made to have information on glitches and cheats for Pokemon Gen 1-2 and had bits of info on Gen 3 (namely Bad Egg). The one thing I remembered the most is that there was a spot full of obviously fake glitches/'in game cheats' such as PokeGods, the story of 'making a fried Celebi Egg', or even 'Going to the bathroom in the SS Anne'. The site also housed a fanfiction made by the creator of the site, which told the story of MissingNo. and 'M, failed Team Rocket experiments during the creation of Mewtwo, and how a trainer, a hacker, and a Team Rocket grunt (who had Articuno of all Pokemon) had to stop them by creating another failed Mewtwo experiment- had mixtures of Mew, Entei, and Meowth (called Myall)- to defeat the glitch Pokemon.
I used to visit the site a lot during middle and early highschool, but around the early 2010s the creator decided to take the site and turn it into her cosplay portfolio site, and now it seemingly doesn't exist at all anymore.
Good times.. if only I had some way to save those bizarre fake stories cause some of them were good in a cringy way. (such as the time someone started a pokegod rumor in their school, of a creature called Cheese that was only accessible by cheat device, by setting in the encounter number at '999999999999999999999' instead of something valid)

:u I actually found one of the creator's images of Myall, it was used in the fanfiction! I might actually find some of this lost stuff! at least, regarding the fanfiction..

also does anyone remember all the flash games nick had? I vividly remember the clickamajigs
[/quote]Oh GOD I remember everythinggirl! Hooooly snackaroni, that's a total blast from the past.
Only site I've recently checked that has died off is gamefudge (unless I'm stupid). I spammed the heck out of whatever Grow game I could play there. Not sure if Addicting Games is still active, but little me frequented that too.

I miss EverythingGirl.com and Beanie Babies 2.0
So here are a few that I recall:
[b]Shining Stars[/b] - toy brand Russ teamed up with the National Star Registry to make a Webkinz-inspired toy line. There were even video stories about the pets. These videos, thankfully, are still around on YouTube! But sadly I can't find any screenshots of the site itself. [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KNHu4_nmG0]Here's a link to the first episode of the videos![/url]
[img]http://www.kimskornercc.com/wall-tour-800.jpg[/img]
[b]Bearville[/b] - Build a Bear's online world. I registered my favorite Build a Bear, Rover, to this site. I loved the minigames here, specifically I remember the coffee shop one and the safari one.

[b]LPSO[/b] - also known as Littlest Pet Shop Online, this one had multiple iterations, but LPSO was the last one around, and the one I remember most.

[b]Pixie Hollow[/b] - Disney had a great success with Club Penguin, and wanted to try and see if that same idea of a virtual would would be successful with their other IPs. Pixie Hollow was a virtual world based off of Disney Fairies.

i mean it's still up but it's barely updated anymore iirc
There was also an obscure site called Pandanda back in the day. It shut down a year after I joined. They said in the original announcement that it was going to be back up at some point, but I don't know the status of that anymore. It was basically a Club Penguin clone but with red pandas instead.
To comment on sites already mentioned:
* Bella Sara... My sister and I shared an account I think, and we had quite a bit of stuff. We revisited it some time ago... and it seems mostly the same.
* McWorld... You've brought back memories of a time in the past. I barely remember it but I remember there being some kind of rainbow field area? And I used the Happy Meal stuff too.
* I remember signing up for Bearville because I got a free bear (it was brown and I named it either Cocoa or Chocolate) from a birthday party at Build-a-Bear in second grade. I particularly remember the "Bears Around the World" music you could select to play in the background for some reason.
* I played the previous iteration of LPSO, LPS VIP quite a bit when I was young, but I made a new account every time I got a new plush because I didn't quite understand the concept of accounts at the time. With LPSO, that was a different story, since all the plushies I got were put on the same account, which is convenient. I had a nice membership, a nice house, stuff like that, and I usually played as a blue-and-white dog. She isn't the one I remember most, however. That belongs to a simple brown dog named Spike. I had a cat girlfriend with him for a while, but we broke up after I told her I was actually a girl.
Edit: Oh! And Monkey Quest! Basically, it was an MMO from Nick in the early 2010s, and you were a monkey trying to save the world from evil shadow creatures. There were a few different tribes you could join (one of them, a volcano one i believe, never got added into the game because it shut down before it could be added), and you got special weapons for joining one of them. A lot of it was locked off to membership, but it was still a fun game!

@Shadria
Ah yes, TRsRockin.com, I remember that site! Apparently the creator does mostly cosplay stuff now on her site with a name like Meow About Cosplay, but I haven't checked it out very much.
@HydreigonOxide
I found the dragon Shining Stars creature with its tag intact...in a thrift store a couple years after the site shut down. Really mad about that, I still have the doll somewhere.
Neopets is still around, but y'all remember Petpet Park? I didn't play it that much, but people were all over it. Also Monkey Quest, back when Viacom owned the site, but it seems to have vanished into the aether.

Hey, friendly reminder to drink water, stretch, and take a short break if you can. Stay healthy! Also, don't forget about any chores or tasks you might be putting off.

@Shadria @Iokharic I met my best friends through the TRR forums. We kept them going for many years (partially as our own personal wiki) until server changes made them too cumbersome to deal with. I used to participate in the biweekly sprite contest. Won it a few times too.
Man those old Pokémon fan sites was my childhood. Also religiously checked Mew’s Hangout, Cave of the Dragonflies (which is still up, amazingly), the one with the Jolteons... several others I can’t think of at the moment.
