Attention Flamingos

Hello!
Eh, I feel tired today o.e
The ice-cream parlour collection is over T^T. However, there's something new over at the Summer Carnival!

O_O

It's supposed to be a flamingo.

I hope they make a non-member balloon hat any time soon! cx

2,000 tickets- not bad! 2012's Summer Carnival prices were CRAZY.

Following the lollipop necklace through the years...

2012- 10,000 tickets

2013- 4,000 tickets

2014-2,000 tickets

You can find the new video over at Tierney's Aquarium, telling you all about this thing called 'Sea Glass'

Wow, I'm certainly going to watch that when I have a spare moment. It seems beautiful!

Do you remember when I still checked on the activities calendar? Well, I guess I won't abandon that idea completely ^-^

There's nothing new today, though.

Anyway!

The plushie stores are running smoothly again, so don't forget to pay them a visit at any time to see if there's a plushie you're after! Every time a plushie is sold, a new plushie is put in its place- I try to keep the den full at all times. I'm thinking of creating more special plushie stores soon, and more regular stores should come soon too! Then, maybe I might make 'bunny-only' stores, and so forth cx

There is also a new branch of stores- toy stores! Pay the new 'Toy Stores' page a visit to learn more, and visit the first toy store to see if there's one of those cute, collectible action figures you're after in there! 

Guess what time it is?

-checks watch-

Duh, it's RANT TIME!!!

Just to clarify, I'm not going to rant every day O_O

There's just something annoying I want to speak up about in today's post, and that thing is...

ATTENTION SEEKING.

It's everywhere!

People sleeping in the middle of a crowded land wanting attention, and that's really annoying. Not to mention, really ungrateful >.>

Now, do you really want to have no parents?

Do you really want to be in hospital with a life-threatening fever?

Well, okay, I'm going to be fair. People role-play about those things, and I guess that's fine to an extent since it gives characters more developed stories and stuff. 

But what ISN'T fine, is when people say things like;

''Plz send me rares i have no parents''

Uh, that's no reason for us to give our pixel-items to you. Besides, how will rares help you? :/

Sure, they might make you happy for a while but not happy enough to overcome being that sad :L

''donate plz im in hospital with a rare illness''

Okay, that just makes no sense. Pixels can't cure your illness :/ It's no fun to be in hospital with a rare illness, because you don't know what's going on and if you're ever going to be normal. How can you use something like that to get attention, I don't know O_O

''my mom broke her leg and idk if she's gonna make it plz donate''

Most stupid thing EVER. First, can you even die from a broken leg? The leg alone, no O_O 

Next, pixels won't help.

Finally, WHY AREN'T YOU WITH YOUR MOM LIKE RIGHT NOW? *O*

I just hate attention seekers. Okay, when you're role-playing you can make up all sorts of crazy stories about your character. Even though some RP attention seeking annoys me too :P

For instance, in schools everyone is suddenly the good kid that does everything perfectly and yada yada yada >:O

And when trying to get a virtual family everyone is a homeless abandoned cute magical rare whatever baby. XD

What isn't fine though, is when people lie about their real lives. To get attention.

They should be grateful they have a home, safe water, food and a computer, really. They should.

However, they lie about not having those things just to get attention!

:T

''omg im in hospital and i will die in 2 seconds omg help me plzzz''

Being in hospital isn't exactly something you want to lie about, take my word for it 0_0

What else I don't like is when people think that me saying ' rares are just pixels' automatically translates to 'everyone I don't care about rares I don't even care they exist everything I have is free just ask for it'

NO, IT DOESN'T.

I got my rares for a reason- just because I'm not obsessed with them doesn't mean they are free! I still like them and they aren't free >:o

Now then, that's it! ^-^

Just a video for all of you :D

It's about the update, all summed up into under 15 minutes :P

By the way, I do not have a YouTube channel and don't plan on having one right now.

That's it for now, see you around Jamaa! :3

I'm sure we can agree this bench looks messy to sit on...

Hello! ~(\(◕◡◕)(\~
First of all, one of my plushie stores, GreenDreams, got hacked O_O
I don't know how, the password isn't too easy to guess but not too hard, either. I suppose somebody just guessed it :L
Thankfully, nothing is gone BUT the look of my seal was changed (I changed it back) and I found some Jamagrams saying 'You're mean!'. :(
So... the hacker most likely reads the Animal Jam Rainbow and is intent on ruining my reputation.
What I think happened is that they guessed the password (I changed it now, because it wasn't a very good password)  and then they started being rude to people. I just hope they didn't say who I am ;-;
If you were recently bullied by GreenDreams, please be aware that it was not me.
I changed the password now, so hopefully this won't happen in the future :D
Anyway, today's new item adds on to the ice-cream parlour collection;

I'm quite sure it's Sundae, not Sunday O-o

BUT IT'S MEMBER! T^T 

They could have at least made the giant cone or topping dispenser thing non member :T

(\(◡-◡)(\

Oh well!

The new video can be found in Sarepia Theatre.

Hmm, the word 'weirdest' did successfully lure me to watch this video. Hang on as I watch it!

Before video: ~(⚆◡⚆)~?

During video: ~(◕◡◕)~!

After video:~(❂•❂)~!!

That IS one weird monkey. Heh. Big nose :3

Anyway, I haven't checked my plushie stores for ages O-o

Thankfully, nobody was left hanging waiting for service. 

I want to inform you all that;

☛ Plushie stores are open 24/7, so no matter what time zone you're in you can always come in to take a look ⦿W⦿

☛ If the store is offline, feel free to send a Jamagram once you find something you like.

☛The stores are currently being checked daily and all Jamagrams will be responded to.

☛ As of 12/08/2014 there are 5 plushie stores. 

☛greendreams,cyanstar2014,hypergem and weirdjoy stock mostly regular and some special plushies. 

☛ tinypotatoes stocks only special and harder-to-get plushies. Please note this does not include Sidekix plushies. The plushies you can find are plushies with accessories and plushies such as arctic wolves, lions and giraffes. This store also sells phantom plushies. Please ask to see the phantom plushies and to arrange a trade ^-^

☛A toy store is being worked on and is going to be a separate thing from plushie stores.

Okay, so err.... ∙3∙

Time for a bit of ranting!

Put your party hats on everyone! :D

MAILTIME.

Just to clarify, real mailtimes do exist. They are often done on YouTube where fans willingly

send mail and stuff to whoever they admire and then, if there is enough mail, all of it is opened on camera. I suppose the fun part is seeing what kind of mail someone gets, or seeing their reaction to your mail, or getting a little famous :P

Anyway, this whole mailtime craze on Animal Jam was started by Julian2, probably one of the most famous Jammers out there UoU

Basically, Julian2's fans started sending him Jamagrams and gifts, and then it kinda evolved into something where people sent gifts (sometimes really good rares, and videos with those became really popular) to see them being opened on camera.

Pretty harmless,right? :T

Nope. Not so fast.

Even Julian's original mailtime is flawed. 

Here's why. (BECAUSE I'M HAAAAAAAPPPYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!)

✺ Julian discards most gifts without even looking at the message. It's the thought that's meant to count, but to me it seems like Julian eventually only cares about rare gifts. In some videos, he didn't even respond to the message and discarded a LOT of gifts. Okay, the discarding part I understand- inventory's full. It would have been a tad bit nicer to send it back though :T

✺ He over-reacts I-I  Come on, the reaction I would give to a founders' hat in my mail is  less extreme than the reaction Julian gave to a spiked wristband. Basically, of course Julian's happy but some of those reactions are a bit over the top- it's just PIXELS. :O

✺ Mailtime is now just pointless- it's more for the gifts than the words of kindness, and that kind of just makes mailtime pointless. Not to mention the endless 'ADD ME' 'BUDDY ME' Jamagrams.

A lot of people now just use mailtime to beg for rares, and most don't even make videos.

Ok that's weird XD

Yup

UoU

Speaking of videos...

Here's my first video :O

And I'm talking.

Explaining the video schedule thing and everything.

See you tomorrow, and Jam on! :3
