Yes! That is where I got my start. I was 12 when I first began to role play and I fell in love with it -- I've been addicted ever since. Thanks to Neopets and role playing, I learned to write and spell better than I may have normally.

Neopets was a great place for beginners. From what I remember, the people there were usually pretty laid-back and nice. Popular genres I remember were Teen Titans, Warriors, Gifted, Stranded on An Island, X-Men Evolution, High School, and Orphanage role plays. I seriously miss those days! :lol
