I've recently had a poll where I wanted Jammers to vote on what would make Animal Jam better. Yes, a lot of people have been telling me to make it more violent, since a lot of non-little kids play it. There are teenagers who play Animal Jam, even old grandpas and grandmas! On the poll, you got to vote:
- Animal Jam should be more violent
- Animal Jam should involve less scamming
- It should be easier to get rares
- Other
"I wish Animal Jam could be a little violent. Phantom Adventures used to be a little fun, but not anymore. Why do you HAVE TO trap the phantoms instead of just killing them?" ~Awesome Happyjammer
"Animal Jam should definitely involve lesser scamming. I've been scammed 17 times in 3 months! I think Animal Jam should give you back the rare that was scammed from you, because every time I e-mail them, they don't even help!" ~Emperor Oldbunny
"I love Animal Jam very much, but I wouldn't say it's perfect. It has a lot of perfecting to do. They won't even help when you e-mail them, it's unfair. Animal Jam is also getting a little more boring everyday, there's not enough adventure! Even in Phantom Adventures, it's annoying how you can't use weapons like swords or or bow and arrows to kill them. There is also a ton of scamming. I don't mind being scammed, but AJHQ never helps return the item onto your account." ~Juniper Arcticpaw
"Animal Jam is a bit fast for me. They keep updating it, and I don't get to enjoy much of the game. Like when they brought out the Wind Armour, another armour came, and I didn't even save up enough diamonds for it. Also, in Adventures BETA, there are barely any good prizes, so AJHQ should really make them have better prizes. Animal Jam should bring all the rares back, and ban trading and sending, so that rares won't even matter in the game." ~Major Majormajor

As you can see, I haven't mentioned anyone's usernames, but you know who you are! Some people say that Animal Jam is perfect the way it is. You are welcomed to leave your opinion on the comments below.
I think it's prefect. Maybe if they stop updating constantly. Then new jammers wouldn't be so confused about everything. Kind of like other virtual world games, they update it, but then they take it away and replace it with a new one. IDK it's kid of overwhelming. Especially since things can GET rare and ARE rare, people tend to care about that instead.
ReplyDeleteLOL, I didn't know that grandpas and grandmas are playing such games.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I like your article <33.
DeleteThank you!
DeleteHmmm... I have an idea! STOP FUCKING BRINGING BACK RARES!
ReplyDeleteHmm I got an idea how about you stop saying bad words and let them bring at least some rares back.
DeleteIf they were to bring rares back, I would suggest to AJHQ that they make the rares come out in new colors so there would still be a "rare/beta people" class for everyone, and still have fun collecting stuff. Everyone deserves a chance to get a bit of fun collecting rares, right?
DeleteI remember when I used to be a newbie non-member and didn't know how to get rare items. This was when AJ didn't have too many updates, and didn't have much for non-members to wear or to have and call "rare". This was around the beginning of the year, probably from March to May or June.
I do hope that AJ doesn't become Club Penguin. Club Penguin used to be almost the same as AJ before Disney took CP over. I'm still a noob at Club Penguin, but I hear that lots of "rare" penguins are complaining about some rare stuff coming back to stores. This kind of sounds like AJ now, and I'm not liking it either. I just hope AJHQ will soon understand it's players a bit more and come to understand what they are doing to this game.
dude u know why theyre bringing rares back? Because you CARE about them. AJ thinks no one cares because this game is designed for 6-12 aged players, yet teens play the game =-= So aj thought you guys would like it because you're not mature enough to care... so thats why. in club penguin, items dont matter because u cant trade NOR send. i hope AJHQ bans all trading & sending, so no one will care about rares anymore! im sick of Julian2 because before he made all his videos, rares didn't even matter. i used to be a nice jammer, but now I scam for my rares. i cannot help being left out. Julian2 and many other people mainly just buddy rare people. they will never buddy my friend Kayak4Julian2, and u know why? because he has nothing! he is a new player & no one will buddy him because he is not rare. do you think Julian2 has the right to buddy him? Yes. do you think Julian2 has the heart and caringness to buddy him? No.
Deleterares took over animal jam. animal jam is not supposed to be like this. BAN TRADING AND SENDING, AND BRING BACK ALL THE RARES!! NOW!
Seriously? AJHQ Will NEVER take out sending and trading and rares. It is such an important aspect of the game that I would not be surprised how many people would quit if they took it out. You should know that AJHQ does NOT take out anything unless there is something truly wrong with it, like skullys. Rares are also a VERY important aspect of the game as well.
DeleteYeah totally. Most of the game IS trading and trying to get rares and betas and stuff.
Delete~koalabear96863~
What was wrong with skullys? It couldn't have been that they were "morbid," because Skull Helmets have a similar design and they haven't been removed. It couldn't be because they "looked wrong on pandas," as someone once told me it was, because the other Tail Armors look the same way! I can't think of anything else that could have been wrong with them! I think AJHQ should bring them back.
DeleteCan't help but agree,they need to not put rares and such in shops,the gazzel horns in shops really ticked me off. Try to say it a bit kinder though,never know who might be reading this.
DeleteIf they do bring back rares then there would be less scamming and hacking. It's okay. I wish they would just bring the beta days back. Then everybody could have their way. People that are mad probably are rare, but what about the people who aren't? Animal jam is kind of unfair to them. But that's just my opinion.
Deletemore violent i think, and let us say ''WTF'' or ''beer''
ReplyDelete-.-
No, that would be really wrong.. Its a kids game!!!
DeleteI agree. I can't even say root beer! If it's a kid's game, why are you playing it?
Deletewell it would be fun to say WTF but I don't know about saying beer. some kids might use it in a bad way like saying drinks lot of beer or gets drunk. but we do have WTF look in the face things.
DeleteIt's a kid's choice. Personally, I think swearing and saying beer shouldn't be a huge deal, because people chose to make bad meanings out of words. Also, saying beer doesn't have to be intended in a bad way. You could say: "Beer is main import of Japan." or "My mom really likes beer, but my dad prefers juice." I don't think a six-year old would tell someone to go get drunk on beer :/ As for WTF, it's a word that can be used between older kids.
DeleteI don't think AJ should bring back rares, cuz then they wouldn't even be rare anymore,... but I hate it how people are famous just for their items or clothes that are rare. who cares what you wear, if its rare or not? people should buddy others for their attitude not for their stuff. its kind of annoying how julian2 and bepper and all those people automatically have all the friends ("friends") they could want JUST because they managed to get some items that are hard to get.
ReplyDelete-AWESOMEFUNNYSTONE (might change user to electricdreams)
Nods ppl that look epic r rlly mean and shitty I'm epic though I'm generous and kind :( :)
DeleteYou know what's rarer than rare? A NICE person with a lot of rares. But there are a few of us, and we know who we are. I personally like the idea of collecting items (possibly partly because I have OCD), and the items just look awesome! I think AJHQ should make more awesome-looking items for people who aren't as rare as others. The Diamond Shop Spikes are nice, but nonmembers can't wear or even get them! I also like Golden Bows, but some people can't afford them (they can't help buying things so they can't save up)! Phantom Armor looks pretty sweet, but for now, non-members have to trade for it! Come on, this stuff isn't fair... And I think I know an item they USED to have that would fix it... Skullies. There's nothing wrong with them. They didn't remove Skull Helmets or other Tail Armors. So why were they removed? They were the cheapest item on Animal Jam, for 10 Gems. We need more similar ideas to make poor nonmembers happy!
DeleteThanks for reading this... :)

Contrary to what many believe, there are quite a few nice rare Jammers out there. People just get ticked when they decline trades, which leads to the popular belief that rare Jammers are all terrible people.
DeleteI am just tired of getting on animal jam because it is a rare contest! I am not all for taking away trading things or even possibly sending things, which is only because that is an easy way to swap things with friends. I also got real sick real fast of Julian2 and all those people, which is because when you get on animal jam, the first thing you dont want to see is: "OMG! JULIAN2 IS ON!!!!" I respect that they are "successful" or whatever in the game, but I am just tired of how it seems to revolve around him.
ReplyDeleteI believe in equality too. They get special treatment and stuff. This also applies to real life.
DeleteI'm glad you're a sensible person. I'm not trying to sound like a pessimist or anything, but this won't change. You could make it better though, by staying sensible and believing that Julian2 is a human, like the rest of us ought to believe. I respect him for becoming rare, but not everything is what it seems and it ticks me off when people say things like their idol is perfect. All in all, we should just be sensible and hope others will too.
Deletedem feels
ReplyDeleteAnimal jam should NOT be violent, but in the 21st century little kids know about swords and that kind of stuff by the time they reach like 4, and i dont think 3-year-olds would play a social game.. Also, if phantoms are SOOOOO "dangerous", why do they PUT YOU TO SLEEP?! Honestly, AJHQ, its fine to say "The phantoms have killed you and you are reincarnated at the checkpoint" or something along those lines. Also, STOP THE STUPID DATING AND MATING!!! It IS a kids game, and 4-year-olds don't need to know about "mating" for another 10 years... Scamming needs to stop too. My 7-year-old sister has been scammed about four times and she cried at all of them! its so annoying and it needs to stop. AJHQ needs to start paying attention to reports and e-mails too. I really hate CP, but at least it has great moderators..
ReplyDelete~ Infinity Frozencloud
Yes I totally agree! I got scammed, so I emailed AJHQ. One of the items that was scammed from me was a rare bow. A month later and the scammer is wearing my bow. Also she was wearing the demon mask she scammed from me! Come on AJ. At least do SOMETHING.

AJHJ is crappy it doesn't help at all - Natsulover ( Fred's dauter )
DeleteI've been telling people that AJ is literally influencing us that rares are what measures a person, and that money is power and also influences people on what to think on others, due to what always goes on in AJ every single day. Many choose to believe that this is false, but soon you can see them sucking up to any rare Jammer. For those who choose to believe everyone is friends with each other and money can't influence that, that is very, very false. AJHQ made it so that its very hard for non members can get very beta (Really bad prizes in adventure and a limited selection of adventures.) and members may get beta fast because of the eagle adventure. Voila something that separated everyone since the beginning of money. Money. I know this may sound a bit stereotypical, but non members are generally better-natured than members. Members are so lazy, I can't even count how many times someone has asked me to buy them something because they're "poor" because of their laziness and unwillingness to actually PLAY GAMES to earn gems. Non-members on the other hand, are generally less spoiled and don't tend to scam as much. (Many members make non-member accounts to scam.) I wish AJHQ didn't have to use the money thing to separate kids, but they have to make money. I just wish they had better stuff for non-members, because they deserve it. Nowadays, rares are being fought over. I host a random spike giveaway, and everyone wants to be my friend. It ends, everyone leaves without a thanks except for some non members, and those who don't get anything (Mostly members.) rage at me and call me a beach. (Translated to B****, censored for younger readers.) See what I mean? AJHQ needs to pay attention to what they're doing to the new generation.
Deletecan't o,o typo there
DeleteI hate how every time you add a period, yo cant type anymore, and same with ? and ! its stupid! lets us type
ReplyDeleteTRADE ME! I HAVE LOTS OF GOOD ITEMS
without it all in different crap or not adding punctuation
ajhq stop updating
if you wanna update, update the adventures to give awat rares. not crappy shit.
I am getting tired of this shit ajhq. you are maing animal jam not even fun. so stop ajhq. and jam on!!!!! im zeezee49, good bye
Ok so I agree with some of those.
ReplyDeletehere is one I disagree with though. Not having rares or trading or sending. What would be the point of Animal Jam without rares and trading? It would be SO boring (and it already is a little) without rares. What would you work for? Yes, there are many many things Animal Jam could change, but I don't think rares is one of them. Imagine if you had a bunch of beards (which are super rare in care you didn't know). All of the sudden, Animal Jam brought beards back! All that you worked for! All of the rares you traded! Whoever had a beard would be very very mad with AJ. Just imagine how it would feel. Just my thoughts. :)
~koalabear96863~
And spikes!!!!! Me - goes on account and gets them ( if this was real ) XD trading is nice though iI can b a scam O.O - that goes will to f-ing scammers!!! Aj is getting board I'm with u koalabear96863 I'm Natsulover - Fred's daughter :D
Deletemy sis is 8 and she plays da game and i'm 9 and even i play it..
ReplyDeleteI agree aj needs 2 b more violent. Ikr national Geo made it though scaming should b banned and I think it would b rlly kewl if u took a pic as ur self and post it with ur animal when u click it. That would be epic! Cuz wut if u see a kewl guy/girl and u son know wat they look like. No u can if they put that X3
ReplyDeleteAnd if there is a middle aged man pretending to be a little girl and asks for a real little girl's picture?....that's a rlly bad idea no offense
DeleteAjhq is only partnered woth national geographic :/ I called them and they said they only have a partnership with AJ and have no control what so ever.
DeleteUh i wish we could actually attack the phantoms on adventures, and also to start sending us gifts once a month. i thought that was enjoyable
ReplyDeleteI liked how AJ would send something really cool each month to members but, I loved it in beta days everything was nice, no scamming, no difference between non members and members and everything was perfect and now AJ changed everything :(
ReplyDeleteI think aj should bring ALL the beta back. It would end probably all scamming/hacking. Plus the judgement of " beta " Jammers and " poor " Jammers! Especially bring beta dens back. Just a idea I also had would be to make a customizeable den and furniture items. And bring back the beta dens, also. THIS WOULD HELPP I BELIEVEEE c:
ReplyDeleteI want everything on aj to be free! That would be awesome! -Sweetypanta
Deleteit would be cool but there would be no point in playing the game. it would be just like dress up games. no point, no objective, no seeing if you could get more rares than other jammers. it wouldn't be very fun to just sit around and buy everything In the shops. I mean you could customize your animal but earning gems would be pointless effort. ~tryhard51
DeleteNo more violence, kids still play this game.
ReplyDeleteAJ SHOULD bring back the beta! I couldn't agree more! I've been waiting and waiting for that to happen. I actually like the updates; mainly because I get some new stuff to do on this boring game. I have a whole page dedicated to Animal Jam on my blog, and it's getting kinda lonesome just sitting there in the Menu :P. Anywho, AJ should be more violent. Like in adventures, if phantoms are so THREATENING why do they just sing you a lullaby and put you to sleep? Odd? I want to be like everyone else: rare, beta, COOL most of all. Only my buddies think I'm da bomb of friends. Julian2 is so obsessed with his stuff. It sorta makes me laugh when I see a video titled: "JULIAN2 SCAMMED." Lol I break out in laughter. He so deserves it. Sorry above comment, Aj should be more violent. (I almost typed violet, oops.) So, until Animal Jam Headquarters brings back the beta, this is Loonu24 making a point. Ciao!!!
ReplyDeleteIf they bring back the beta I quit and I know a LOT of people that will do the same. They'd probably loose more than half of their players. I pray that they do NOT bring back the beta!!!
DeleteSomething that drives me CRAZY is that the second something gets rare they bring it back so it's not rare anymore. And how they get you all excited because your favorite animal is going to be on Animal Jam and then it's put in the stinkin diamond shop. And how strict the chat is because I'm not sure if it was brought to their attention that words like "cream" and emotions like 0w0 and X3...? Any kids that shouldn't hear things that they censored out can hardly read and don't know the meanings behind that stuff. Also, 6 year olds don't usually play that game, mostly second grade and older. And "three" isn't a swear word.
ReplyDeletesomething that really annoyes me is people taking clans WAYY to far.. i mean who brags about killing an elk??? WHO CARES!?? its not something to brag about that could have been a 3 year old you just 'killed'
ReplyDeletealso PLZ BRING BACK THE BETA!! these items are just pixels!!! its soo annoying how people say things like ''trade me im poor'' ''i got scammed trade me something good'' ''best trade gets my founders and spikes'' and the old saying ''trade me its my bday'' when its not your bday :l. and ppl WHY DO YOU HAVE TO SCAM POOR PEOPLE WHEN ANIMALJAM DOESNT EVEN CARE!?!? you wouldnt like it if someone did that to you? woud you be happy? does it give you joy to see people crying their eyes out???? and finally does everyone understand this is a childrens game? anything on this game is NOT REAL (i dont mean the items and stuff) why do you have to mate? 3 things 1 ITS DISGUSTING!! 2 ITS. NOT. REAL. 3.... your getting 'married' to someone you dont even know.. for all i know the so called 'wife' could be a 50 year old sicko man. that just makes me laugh. anyway scammers i know you dont care.. this comment will be ignored :( but plz take to heart that even though the items are just pixels, people worked hard for them and it breakes their hearts when they send you a spike hoping you will double it or give them a rarer spike back and you leave that is just wrong and mean! peace
ReplyDeleteOne time I was going to get married turns out it was a girl! I know a 3 year old he got "killed" then his mom made him quit so.. Be careful you don't know who is out there there are scammers and hackers trying to trick you. Don't mean to get off topic but I know a 5 year old who has scary bats lol so.. Well just be careful young ones and happy jamming! -sweetypants
ReplyDeleteI think they should make the animals n' stuff cheaper in the diamond shop. I think animals should go down to at least 7 diamonds. Or lower! But 5 i personally think is too low.
ReplyDeleteI do not agree with major major major tradeing is fun as long as u don't scam sorry if I misspelled any words -little magic tiger (aka tigergirl88911)
ReplyDeleteI think that AJ should be more violent for older people. I think they should make a zone for kids and a zone for older people.
ReplyDeleteSame! That's a great idea.
DeleteTHIS IS HORRIBLE ANIMAL JAM SHOULD NOT BE MORE VIOLENT OR EASY TO GET RARES CAUSE THAT TAKES THE CHALLENGE
ReplyDeleteAWAY FROM THE WHOLE GAME!!!

i think you're right in most of the stuff in the article but i kinda don't want AJ to be more violent
