the star pool is a pool of hope! (at least I haven't gotten any old boots from fishing - what game used to give out those for doing their daily fishing? Was that neopets, club penguin, tinier me?)
ooh, tinierme did have a thing where u could fish for CCs, fish or items or sth and then trade them in at the fishing booth for items (i dont remember much, it's been a loooooong time)
i don't remember the tinierme fishing thing. Though, it has been like 6-7 years now.
gaia had fishing I believe. And dumpster diving which is kinda similar in concept as you can get a random piece of junk or nice item or whatever daily...
