Truthfully, the pet thing was just tacked on because people don't like threads with purely concept. In order to be something that could get players to spend a lot of time on the server, it would have to involve things like pet training and pet equipment. The question then becomes whether training a pet is somehow sufficiently different from training yourself that it would allow for the exploitation of a different market. I've seen some weak evidence that says yes, mainly that games like Neopets attract a market considerably different from that of other MMOs, but there are plenty of other ways to explain that besides pet-training orientation vs. character-training orientation. The pet thing is meant to be an example rather than a suggestion and isn't what the thread is about.
