Hello to everyone here! I'm fairly new here, but I have been playing on virtual pet sites for many years. There's one site that holds a special place in my heart, and that's Verpets. I'm sure some of you remember it or were members like me. Unfortunately, Verpets had been slowly dying for various reasons I won't get into here. However, I want to change that!

Today, I am excited to announce that I am now the official owner of the domain verpets.com. I've reached out to Joe about obtaining the full assets of Verpets, but I haven't heard back yet. Joe or Carl, if you see this post, please reach out to me as soon as possible. I really want to discuss the future of Verpets and bring it back to life. Many people, including myself, are eager to see Verpets restored and updated. It has so much potential, and I'm determined to make that a reality. I'm planning to hire new staff, artists, and coders to breathe new life into Verpets.

I've already started reaching out to past members about this revival, but I would love to hear from more of you! Also, any help in spreading the word about this endeavor would be greatly appreciated. Together, I believe we can make this happen! 😄

Update:
I wanted to add a few links for ease of access for everyone 💖

Hey Houndoom,

I am the original owner and creator of Verpets (Chevy), I have Joe's contact but he is pretty unresponsive and Carl is also not responsive so I don't believe you will be able to acquire any assets without paying a pretty hefty price on a dead asset (my opinion).  I will send you a DM with some other details

ahahaha oh god this is awkward

@Leaftrill @CynicalRaptor 
So uh, apparently Ver's email system hasn't been working for at least 8 months and they're not planning on fixing it.
But- They CAN reset passwords for existing users.

Yikes

@LobstahMoney are the owners interested in parting ways ? i have tried to get in contact with no luck. 

Wish I could help but the owner has not responded to me in months either.  This goes for @CynicalRaptor as well.

I let the owner know ?

There appears to be some bitterness between the admins here and cpvr but I can vouch that cpvr is a good guy. We don't know the personal and real life circumstances behind what happened but this community would not even exist had it not been for cpvr since a large amount of those members moved here. And let's not proclaim that this forum itself is hugely popular and booming, because it isn't either and it is a bad look having the admins trashing another site publicly, a site they owe a lot to quite frankly...

Let's not pretend he didn't just abandon the site for years with no explanation either.  He might be a great guy but he left a lot of people high and dry with no community to go to.  I think Carlos owes quite a lot to this forum for keeping some of us engaged actually, quite the contrary to your thinking.
