An online virtual pet site created by
Liz and Tony (staff names - Sweetfire and TheMetal). It's geared towards all ages and is 100% free of advertisements. There is a 24/7 live staff monitored environment and Powerpets is COPPA compliant. All of the staff members are regularily found on the message boards communicating with members and participating in chats. Many of the adults playing the
game are
parents who were brought to the site by their children or found the website on their own and encouraged their children to join. It is a family atmosphere where
people are encouraged, not discouraged.
The main focus of Powerpets is educating and caring for animals in an environment that is free of hostility and is safe for everyone. Scamming and hacking is taken very seriously and members who
break major rules are removed from the site.
Members can choose to adopt a wide variety of pets, all of which are found in the real
world. Education comes in the form of quests where
short books are read in order to answer questions about animals.
For those who like to get involved, Powerpets offers a chance to submit your own stories to be published as an official
PP book, create greeting cards or submit items that
may be released for sale in one of the many shops. As a bonus, you receive commissions for book sales or a lump
sum payment in powerbucks for any artwork used.
Powerpets also allows you to choose your own goals for the
game. Most
people follow some of the mainstream goals like achieving elite status, gathering the stones, purchasing land, creating a gallery or being in the Bureau of Statistics. Other
people simply enjoy playing the games or chatting on the boards and making friends.
