Requirement - first read the History of Jamaa.
I know you were all hoping for something big, something Jamaa-changing, but we all need to face the facts. Animal Jam is run by adults. We are kids. What could we possibly do?
All I know is that I didn't join Jamaa for the rares or the games. I joined it to find friends from around the world and learn more about the earth from an inspirational game. As corny as that sounds, it's true. I love Jamaa because of the imagination and creativity behind it. It is something more than a game. . .
Perhaps it started with Graham the monkey shaman. It all began then I suppose. I never realized how fun it would be to meet a shaman, and how I felt like I was becoming part of a story. None of my rares mattered at that moment. I just wish everyone else could feel the same. Things would be better. . .
Enough with my talk, now for the evidence! Here are some problems I've seen. Shamans are no longer being named. Mira, Zios, and the phantoms no longer appear in the Jamaa Journal (except for gift giving symbols and glitch excuses that is). Humanity is invading Jamaa - the cruise ship - Crystal Sands water slides. . . It's simply getting ridiculous.
If we want to make a difference we need to act together. I don't just mean all of you or this blog. We're pretty small in Jamaa. I mean every blog, every jammer, every single one you can find. If the word goes wide, we may have a chance. I'm sure many of you own blogs, or read other ones. Could you post this, or tell about this? No need to link my blog if you don't want you readers to come here. Just simply state the name and goal of our movement. Then we may have the chance. . . to change Jamaa.
Tell your buddies. Tell jammers who care about Jamaa. Tell jammers who don't know anything about it at all. If we are a united group AJHQ will have to hear us. None of this is possible without your active help, you must want to change Jamaa.
This next week is to prepare for our first act. Our current task is to spread the word. Tell a random jammer you meet. Tell your friends. Tell your your blog readers. But the real question is this - what are we going to do? What do you want to do? Tell me your ideas and remember, we must take baby steps. Little changes. If we give it our best we may just change the world.
There are some of you that will ignore this post, won't spread the word, and don't really care. That's alright. It makes a difference just knowing about what Jamaa is missing. For everyone else, we must fight. For when we leave Jamaa we need to be ready for the outside world. It's a big place, and it needs change to move towards a better future. Why not start now?
¡!¡ Jamaasians for Jamaa !¡!

lol loved the party :3 and yea so miss the old Jamma......
ReplyDeleteYOU WROTE JAMMA WRONG.
DeleteYOU wrote *Jamaa* Wrong!
Deletei came to the party it was so cool snowy
ReplyDeleteii agree post the date please first comment :D
ReplyDeletehey! it's dobbyandsnape!
Deleteaw nvm not first
ReplyDeleteI will start telling my friends! And a new friend that just made a player yesterday. And my friend at school. And....bkahbkahbkahblahbkahblahblahblahblahblahblah and even more ppl. Maybe I will host a Jamaasian party movement at my den. Or comment on other blogs about it. Whoever I tell, it will be for Jamaa!
ReplyDeleteME TOO! snowy, that was a GOOD post. I am going to tell EVERYONE I know andl people I don't know too!
DeleteSPREAD THE WORD!!! MAKE JAMAA A BETTER PLACE FOR ALL OF US!!!!
~neros1234
P.S You guys are so lcky!! I really wanted to go to the party but my mom said I couldn't cause it was fathers day
Random fact... but when you scroll down the italic-ed words move. . .
ReplyDeleteI know right!!
DeleteI am the leader of SEKP, Saving the Earth with Kid Power,
ReplyDeleteand at SEKP, our motto is Together, kids CAN make a difference. Even though they are adults, together we are stronger then they are. The problem, they are treating us like five year olds, thinking up lies and exuses, like remember when locks started apering on NM idems? They blamed phantoms, like we were little little kids who wouldnt understand coding glitches or hackers.
Lets all comment on ways to create an email, and then copy it and email it!
omg tht makes so much sence
DeleteSnowyclaw, i really want Jamaa to change too, I mean Animal jam is a website that u can have an animal and play with it and have a den ect. I agree with the water slides and cruise ships, I mean u never see a rabit or tiger or any other animal on a water slide or cruise ship :D . If we really want the old animal jam back i think we should all start off with sending AJHQ an email about the problem, telling other jammers about the movement like u mentioned, gathering peaceful protests (a protest without bad words or destruction), and hosting parties or parades inviting all jammers. I think if everyone works together we can do this. :)
ReplyDelete-jojoismygirl
Hey Snowy! I already have a page on my blog that tells Jammers about the Jamaasian Movment! I will definatly post this on there. I'll give you the link if you want.
ReplyDelete~Cece3546!
just now i went to jamaa township and told everyone there all about jammasian movement. Lots of jammers agree with me. I think that if we did this we could be telling lots of people at the same time. I am going to continue with this while also sending postcards to all my buddies. I love you snowyclaw!
ReplyDeleteEteey
Yes, email...
ReplyDeleteYou know, we could like think up ways then all of us could send letters to AJ HQ to bring back Jamaa, like you did. They don't have to be exactly the same just all of us who believe and want to fight back.
Also, I'm working on this story. It's like an add-on to the Jamaa Legend about Zios and Mira, and it describes a lot about how Jamaa changed like that and answers all the mysteries in Jamaa like the trapdoors and whatnot.
Isn't it ironic how NGK and AJHQ always tell us kids can make a difference and this is happening?
-Rufistar
Yep, lolz!
DeleteKinyonga
Honetly, they say that but adults dont take us serously.
DeleteHi Snowy! This post is inspirational, i will definitely spread the word! Go Jamaasians!
ReplyDelete-Ssthepic-
Rufistar has a good point. Adults always tell us that if we put our minds to it, we can do anything. Apparently adults now treat us like five year olds. Snowy also said something that surprised me. We know that phantoms want to cause chaos but we also know that nothing is perfect. We know about glitches and hackings. AJHQ doesn't have to lie to us. Jammers should know about the history of Jamaa. They should know about Zios and Mira. Someone should be able to walk up to someone and say, "Hey whos Mira?". The other
ReplyDeletejammer should be able to say, "She was created by Zios to keep him company". Not say, "Shes the statue in Jamaa Township. Animals would never naturally go on cruise ships or water slides. If we dont do something, AJHQ will eventually turn Jamaa into a modern city. Isay we should take a stand. Go Jamaasians!
ReplyDelete----Josh52214
True. 2 years later animaljam.com will be known as "the animal city" where theres those skyscraper buildings and cars and wolves are going around wearing suits and tshirts. Get the idea?
DeleteAnd crystal sands will be just like florida...
Exactly. We have to stop that from happening. Even though AJHQ and other jammers don't care about the history of Jamaa, we do.
Delete-----Josh52214
yeah, i hate the world as it is... i dont need one f the only fun webites for me being run like this. I dont want morden stuff, i want to take my mind OFF the world!
DeleteI was at the party and we should bring back the shamans, the guides, the Mira, the Zios, the spirit? Are you guys with me?
ReplyDelete-animallover1925
love the idea! I will spread the word for sure!
ReplyDeleteYeah! Come on Jammers! This is for JAMAA!!! Spread the word! I'm going to! I'll post it on my blog, and several other blogs. You are SO cool Snowyclaw! I too joined Animal Jam because it was about nature and imaginative stuff. I'm not very good with words but there it is. I think AJ HQ shouldnt be putting so much stuff, like sunglasses for instance. Whoever heard of animals needing sunglasses? But most of the items are ok, but when the cruise ship party came out, I was ANNOYED! It humanizes AJ and makes it boring. Apart from that, I agree with you about the Crystal Sands thing. I really LOVED the old look, and I can hardly remember it bcause I didnt know how to take screenshots then. But yeah, SPREAD THE WORD JAMMERS!!!
ReplyDeleteKinyonga
I joined animaljam.com because of these events. It's like a chain.
Delete•My mom had a conference in another state.
•We went to an airport.
•I was bored at the airport and bought a NGK magazine.
•I went to the NGK site because the web address was in the magazine.
•I found out about animal jam at the NGK site.
•I play other online games like these, and this one seemed pretty cool, so why not join?
•I joined animal jam.
Trueness! Hey snowy- this was the best party ever! It was also my first that was hosted by you- loved it. I have actually been doing that (the jamasian movement) now that i think about it. At the Mira statue (too bad she's not real there) I tell legends. I'm TOTALLY with you. At first I was excited about the cruise ship party- then I was disgusted and ashamed. And when I said," I'm pack tin" I meant- pac10. but I don't have free chat so i said that instead :D
ReplyDeleteI will try to get a blogger account- and I will spread the word. GO JAMAASIANS!
-pac10
PS: I was like you when I met cosmo. -sighs- I'm totally with you snowy! I did AJ because I heard about 'saving your fellow jammers' part. I AM TOTALLY WITH YOU!
DeleteMIRA LIVES ON!
-pac10
And Zios!
DeleteSpeaking of Zios, this is what will happen in a conversation these days.
-me and my buddy finish a river race that was pretty long-
Me: Whew! Thank Zios that's over!
Buddy: Err.. who's Zios?
Me: You don't know who Zios is?!
Get the idea? :(
Thats exactly what will happen if we dont do something. Soon Mira, Zios, Shamans, etc., will fade away and be forgotten. We have to DO something to prevent this from happening. Its one thing to think of things to do, but its another thing to actually DO them.
Delete----Josh52214
I was also in a somewhat like situation rufistar. I was in temple of zios (which is now land where hardly anyone goes) when I started talking about the shamans. I was first talking about graham. Then someone asked who's that? I am so dissapointed of what an is turning into. -awholenewworld. PS I first got on my first account when freedom hats and capes came out
DeleteThe Temple of Zios is a special part of Jamaa's history. Now its a clan's territory and its a place of violence when people are actually there.
Delete----Josh52214
Ikr, i mean, i like the idea of clans and clubs and all... but why not peaceful fights?
DeleteGuyz please visit mah blog Aj canines! I will post that message on mah blog.
ReplyDeleteBTW sorry for any spelling/grammar/punctuation mistakes. I was about to go to Home Depot so i had to type rather quickly. lol
ReplyDelete-----Josh52214
That is POWERFUL! I am going to offer a link every Monday, I hope that's enough. I am TOTALLY for this no humanity! And as we move up, I hope we can help Crystal Sands. I miss the cliff. That was where FluffyDragon and I went when we felt pressured. I miss that old spot more than anything. I also hope Jamaa folklore comes back, as I have never seen a shaman.
ReplyDeleteGO JAMAAISIAN MOVEMENT!
I miss old Jamaa. There was no online dating, no schools, and whatnot you see these days. :(
DeleteI remember when Cami's Frog was still in stores and robots and geckos were. they took away those items that I miss so much. If you took away what they sell now I wouldn't care.
I remember when gecko flags were all around and I remember I read every one of those facts. The one I remember the most is: Did you know? There is only females in the leopard gecko species.
I remember when rocking horses and pillows were in the claw. I remember winning one of those horses.
I remember when there was no trading, no rares, and no scammers.
I remember and MISS the old Jamaa.
I have joined Animal Jam in late february. I knew nothing of the history of Jamaa, and I think I should've learned most of it after at least an hour after entering.
DeleteI joined because my best friend told me that it was a great game.
she was right, it was.
but there is a lack of culture, whenever i see pictures from beta they seem more...natural.
I don't believe I was obsessed with collecting rares, I just bought and traded what I thought was my style. I think all animals in Jamaa should be like that, not hoarding nor scamming rare items just to show them off on their trade list.
I look at the Jamaa I came into, It's becoming more modern every day. maybe instead of books about animals in Chamber of Knowledge there could be stories of the shamans. Maybe AJHQ could make nothing rare anymore, so Animals would finally know that there's more to Jamaa than having the rarest items of all their friends. I actually really wish there could be no more rares. despite your arguments, something has to be done.
~DoomyPanda
P.S. Check out my new blog animaljamstream.blogspot.com
I agree with everything you have said. The books in the Chamber of Knowledge may be about animals, put they look VERY modern. Even the movie theaters. They have may informative information on animals, but a movie theater? Tierney's Aquarium for example. It has good information on fish and scuba gear. But animals need any scuba gear. And a touch pool? Glass fish tanks? Theres even a HUMAN picture of Tierny. And there are humans in some movies now. AJ is becoming more human every day.
Delete------Josh52214
I like what you said about rares. I have a lot of rares, but I never brag about it. Ever. And if I see something that's not rare on a guys trade list that I like, I'll get it if it's my style. I don't really care if it's rare or anything! The rares express my personality! I just think they match my sense of style weather it's rare or not! Just wanted to put that out there.
DeleteLineyluv ☺
Rares aren't even the POINT of AJ in the first place. But now they are. Its always "I have that rare!" "But you don't have that one!". Rares are becoming the center of attention in Jamaa. The books in the Chamber of Knowledge should tell Jamaa's history.
Delete-----Josh52214
I hate rares a lot. It's VERY annoying that trading was made. I even WISH that rares didn't exist and everyone could get whatever they wanted. (No scamming/hacking included.) Jamaa just might be MUCH BETTER if rares didn't exist and the folklore came back... (No human stuff either.)
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- I dislike rares greatly. It isn't the point of Animal Jam...
@DoomyPanda Same here
Delete-Crazee4Horses
I remember when the whole website shut down, and they say PHANTOMS did it. I think they think we are little stupid babies who doesn't know that phantoms are not real. Now in Jamma, there is like arcades, cruise ships, and people saying " If you like me go to my den!!" Maybe later they will have a human as an animal.
ReplyDeleteI agree. If people keep on saying that "If you like me go to my den!" stuff, AJ could not only turn into a modern city, but a dating site as well!
Delete----Josh52214
I don't want any human avatars in this website, that would be going toooooo far! I also don't like how it's slightly turning into a dating site!
DeleteAJ somehow thinks we're just like little kids and blames it on phantoms. Phantoms are for the Jamaa Folklore, NOT for blaming when something goes wrong... Human avatars would be CRAZY. The dating thing is also a problem. THIS IS A KID'S WEBSITE... Some people just don't realize that. >:l
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- I hope Animal Jam doesn't turn into HUMAN Jam...
yeah, at first i thought AJ was always like that when i joined last dovember.. then i learned about this blog, met beta people, people who had been here for 2 years, and people who knew.
DeleteNow i think everyone is tupid, making AJ a dating site. Take away love emotess, problem solved.
Hey Snowyclaw! I have a scammer on the loose:
ReplyDeletePizzadrop
Pizzadrop? Hes really nice!
DeleteHe might be really nice, but the rares tempt reallly nice people into scamming/hacking just so they can be in with the "rare people" and leave us nonmember people who start the game and just want some help and directions lost. Ever notice how when a "nonrare" person gets on the bridge in jamaa township in aldan they ignore them??? what has jamaa turned into!!!
Delete~Supastar101
I totally agree! When AJHQ is fixing glitches, they shouldn't blame it on the cute, little, squishy phantoms! They should tell us the truth! They should say "Sorry jammers, Animal Jam is offline because we're having technical difficulties.". They are humanizing dens! The Small House could be a Tiki Hut with open fields, the Castle should have vines, Princess Castle should have vines, Tree House is purr-fect, Resturant should have vines and be a more animal styled theme, Volcano is purr-fect, Waterpark should have natural Leaf slides with water pouring down the pools are ponds and the concrete is grass, Haunted Mansion should have vines, ect,ect. Clothing a den items should be more animal themed. Everything should be more Jamaa themed. Cozy, animal/natural styled, with the awesome tales of Jamaa...
ReplyDeleteI'll post about it when I get home. I'm using an i-Phone.
-bigcats
I agree with all of the changes. Why would an animal need a castle? Why would it need sunglasses? Soon the animals may dissapear, replaced by human avatars. These animal avatar sites are turning more human every day. Another site I sometimes visit is Club Penguin. This site didnt even have animal related items at first. Shoes? Shirts? Jewelry? It doesnt even have a history.
Delete----Josh52214
I quit CP a long time ago because they were offering almost nothing for nms. The only thing I like about the site now is those puffles.
DeleteI agree!!! Also, phantoms really are cute, little and squishy. Even if they are a bit evil, they shouldn't be blaming hacks on them.
Delete~elektronik1012
I like that idea! I'd even have a behind-the-waterfall den, or that tiki hut sounds awesome!
DeleteAren't the phantoms supposed to be evil? That's what the stories said.
DeleteI only just started in AJ 3 months ago, but I must say .. I like the vines , I have the vine chairs, table, and fence : )
Deleteyeah, ditto bigcatsforever
DeleteGood Job, Snowy! I want to help! Though, I don't have a blog, I will tell other people to help us change the future of Jamaa.
ReplyDeleteJuliaparker
Next think we know, we'll all be living in apartments in New York City, Jamaa! Jamaa was created for kids who like nature to have fun and make friends! Look at this! It's being hacked and glitches are coming up… yeah, we're not 6! But some Jamaasians actually are 6. That's why they lie, but do they want a 6 year old to have nightmares about these 'phantoms'? JAMAASIANS NEED TO BE HEARD! Spread the word people!
ReplyDeleteLineyluv
I agree about the 6 year old/phantom part. Phantoms were created to tell the history of Jamaa. NOT for blaming them when glitches happen.
Delete-----Josh52214

What we have to do is we cant fight for the old Jamaa, as if we were a clan. Tht would make us seem demanding. We have to prove our point, prive that the we want the old Jamaa and that the new one is too "human". We arent telling them to bring beta back, we want the old Jamaa.
DeleteYou have a good point. We can't fight for the history of Jamaa. We must do it peacefully or we may get banned or even suspended.

- Jenny7
Snowyclaw, after reading "the post that inspired it all" I realized something. The reason those new statues say horse statue, penguin statue and now giraffe statue, is because AJHQ didn't bother to name those new animal shaman's. This was a chance to bring back Jamaa's history. But instead they didn't even both to try and bring it back. This proves that Jamaa will soon lose ALL of its history if we don't do something. This also proves that AJHQ no longer cares for Jamaa's history.
ReplyDelete----Josh52214
Indeed! I love your point. We will lose the history if we don't do something! This post inspired me, and I did a small protest. I was surprised on everyone that wanted the Jamaa Culture back. But some people tried to stop us, and even called Liza a fat panda D:< !! Snowyclaw couldn't pick a better time to bring back the Jamaa Culture.
DeleteA fat panda?! Thats sad that some jammers dont even care about Jamaa's history. :( But just knowing about this movement is good. maybe they will change their mind or maybe they wont, but we must think positive. Go Jamaasians!
Delete---Josh52214
This just might be the spark for inspiration! It is upsetting to see someone make fun of our own history... it is just mean. If we can do enough mobs like this, we might be able to change Jamaa, and that means no Human Jam! :)
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- I could've joined your protest, but I didn't know where it was.
Animal jam is just not the same with out the Shamans teaching us nature and animals.
ReplyDeleteLets all group on at snowyclaws den tomorrow at 8:00 AJ's time and share our ideas together and then go to jamaa and tell more people and we can spread the word!

ReplyDeleteplease visit mah blog. Its called www.Ajcanines.blogspot.ca. Please visit it!!
ReplyDeleteSome of the things you listed, like the water slides, I think are awesome!!!! But I do agree with you on the things like the cruise ships. I mean, who thought of that!!! It's a world for ANIMALS. Even the last pieces of old jamaa, like in the temple of Zios, are being taken over by things like rares and scamming. The bunnies only party has been the only slightly spiritual new part of jamaa, and still, it was only small. I am still pretty new to animal jam though, I have only been on for about 2 months, and everything I know about old jamaa and shamans comes from your blog. (you rock snowy XD) When I joined I had no idea who Zios was!! Even though I wasn't there in old jamaa, just hearing about it makes me realize how much better it must have been. Anyways, I completely support the jamaasian movement and I have been spreading the word!!! You rock snowy and good luck!!! (lol sorry this comment is so long)

ReplyDeleteI have a quick idea for the Jamaasian Movement. Could we write AJHQ, and tell them to get rid of the "skip" button for when new members join Animal Jam? I think listening to Liza would help increase our supporters of Jamaa Culture. Just an idea, I am so psyched for the Jamaasian Movement!!!
ReplyDeleteThats a great idea! I think it would help jamers learn more about the history of Jamaa before actually being able to move and buy den items.

Animal jam says it's a fun place but nooooo!!!!!!!!!They put these slides and hot coca huts and brady bars lab i mean they practecly make Animal jam like a park but we don't want that.They made Animal jam so you can meet people and learn new things about the world.But instead it's not like that at all!!!!!I mean beta Animal jam was better.I would never get tired at the beta times!!!!!I mean i was only in beta for a couple of days.They also need to make it were members and nonmembers can change the colors of den items and buy everything like it was in early beta times.If my dad is reading this (22ar) do you agree with me!?!?!?!?!??!!!?

ReplyDeleteAnother problem- ocean animals have NO shamans. The last shaman was Cornelius, shaman of the real-life endadngered crocodiles. Also, look at the Crystal Sands question mark. It talks about human surfing. See, I am not leaving AJ, I love everything about it. But, no more jammers come to the Mira statue. New Jammers skip Liza. And there is a game like humanity, Best Dressed.

Also, this is an ANIMAL world. Just look at some dens, BEDROOMS. Also, Epic Wonders has some HUMAN items. Like the feast table. It has chicken, popcorn and other human foods.
DeleteOh, sorry I couldnt see you at your party.

P.S, AJ Guides and Shamans have not been seen in AJ anymore!
Ocean Animals MUST have shamans. Even though they're the newest type of animal, they should have respect too! I don't trust Epic Wonders because it's just too human-like. Someday, we will be in a skyscraper in a place called Human Jam. It could happen... I don't want Human Jam to happen!

ReplyDeleteJAMAASIANS MOVEMENT ACT AT CONGO CORAL CANYONS NOW
ReplyDeleteThis really touched me, I've been here ever since the Beta times and ever since people were talking about rares Jamma was turning quite stressful. Many people think I'm crazy that I play AJ to meet friends and have a good time instead of getting rares and being popular for them. Over the past I've meet very few people that cared about making friends and enjoying Jamma's history. I sometimes wish there was no such thing as 'rares', i could still remember how it was all relaxed back in the Beta ages, we didn't had to worry about rares at all. Nobody teased me that I didn't have that much stuff, I hanged out in Jamma...and that was about it, but over the days I found very good friends. I wish...time went back to the Beta ages again...
ReplyDeleteMake another blog called Jamassian Movement and we will hold meetings and we will try to think of great ideas for getting back what we want. When Animal Jam was fun. When it was fair. So why not make this blog Snowyclaw?

DeleteTwinklesnow! He looked just like Snowy!
DeleteI know and Howler707 is a girl
DeleteI happened to notice Snowy on the one replyfrom Diana...would the geo bee the 2012 geo bee? If si my brother was in it but didnt make it to the finals. -.-
ReplyDeleteAnyway in honor of the Jamaasian Movement I changed my picture to me with Mira.
P. s. for anyone who uses textPlus (its an app) please join the comm I created called JAMAASIANMOVEMENT
Pawmagicz here!
ReplyDeleteI'm finally happy to see an important post about the Jamaasian Movement. And yes, it is the human problems caused to decrease Jamaa population rapidly. If we keep on the movement, we can turn the mundane to the magical.
I AGREE! AJ HQ is humanizing animal jam, and making it boring. Because they have done this, people are bored and are scamming and hacking LOADS more! I think AJ should be about SPIRITS, ANIMALS, NATURE, IMAGINATION, CREATIVITY!!! Where is Jamaa???
DeleteKinyonga
Indeed. AJHQ is making AJ boring. The bored jammers want something to do so they resort to scamming and hacking. We have to tell AJHQ to stop making AJ boring. I agree about sending an email to AJHQ. It could possibly work.

I get bored on Animal Jam sometimes-.-
DeleteSo do I. I play games with random jammers.
Delete-----Josh52214
Animaljam is a world of imagination, animals, nature, spirits, and creativity.It's not a world of animals that act like humans!AJ HQ used to give us nature facts and quizzes to explore. But they are taking all our fun away!
ReplyDeleteWe need the myths,legends,and spirits to survive! We need Liza and Graham and all the others! Who's with me?
LONG LIVE THE SKY MOTHER!
Also did you notice that when you log out or type your password wrong, it used to show up as an old piece of paper you might find while adventuring, and now it is a white piece of paper you might find in a printer? I bet on the update they are going to have something new like a den or something, and it will be exactly like something you see in New York!
ReplyDeleteI will tell everyone I know! I want them to change it back.
ReplyDeleteI will tell everyone I know! I want them to change it back.
ReplyDeleteYeah, some Jammers are in trance. They "Love" every single update! Do you think my bad dream about Mira being shot by AJHQ was a sign?
ReplyDeleteYou had a dream like that? It must have been terrifying. It seems like it was a sign that we need to change Jamaa or that may happen!
Deletethanks for replying, i really hope animal jam culture lives on. please, support snowy and help her make Animal jam better! Does anyone remember Barry bar's lab? and we could send questions to him but AJHQ doesn't do it anymore? I really think we should be learning on there, about nature and earth and different cultures... its all turning humanized. Please support snowy and help her! :)
DeleteYour right. The only place on all of AJ that hasn't been humanisised is the Lost Temple of Zios. But sometimes clans fight there so its getting violent. Jamaa is defiantly losing its history.
Delete-----Josh52214
clans are changing animal jam too, everyone is fighting over lands that is everyone's propety. I agree, Jamma is losing it's history!
DeleteI don't mind some of the changes, but I agree that for the most part Animal Jam is moving away from and education website about nature and the Earth. It seems the only thing AJHQ cares about these days is "hooking" kids into the game with snazzy gimmicks so that kid will then but their parents to buy them membership. It's all about money these days, not learning about the Earth and nature and different cultures, and that makes me very sad.
ReplyDeleteAnd I have to say, all this emphasis on material goods within the game, especially on items being rare, has caused the scamming and hacking rates to skyrocket. I can't keep up with them all on my Scammer Watch blog anymore, and it both frustrates me greatly and makes me think about quitting some days.
But then you post an amazing and inspiring post like this, and I remember why I keep playing and fighting to keep Animal Jam safe. Thank you snowclaw, you are truly one of the greatest Jammers that Animal Jam has ever known.
That was truly a wonderful post firetigerx. I'm glad others feel this way about AJ. AJ truly is moving away from what it used to be. We must do something about this. I hope everyone feels the same way about this as you do.
Delete----Josh52214
I just copied this on my blog. (ajdailynews.blogspot.com) I will ask a random person, "who is Mira?" or "Do you support the jamaasian movement?". I would not be surprised if people say "huh...wha". Also, has anyone ever heard of a picket line? If you have not, it is like a strike. We should form one. I will make a jammasian movement page on my blog. I also think everyone should build a team and have snowy claw be our leader. I am a beta, and I remember when there was a waterslide-free Crystal Sands, no Cruise Ship Party, and everything looking ricketier. It was much better.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right..... I mean like REALLY! I was in Mid Jamaa-ish... October 2011. It was good! But Beta must be better!
DeleteOctober 2011 was defiantly a turning point. I think the thing that started AJ legends flopping was the SKIP button when you make an account. At that time, the first humanlike things were advertised in Jamaa. The last time I saw a guide was August 2011, my 1 yr. anniversary!
DeleteHuman stuff is invading Jamaa. I agree that the old Crystal Sands was better. I agree that the Cruise Ship Party shouldn't exist. Animal Jam might turn into Human Jam someday... or maybe even Animal City... if we don't save the folklore AND the good, old times quick, Animal Jam will become so human-like that AJ might even make a human avatar on Animal Jam! Which is very, very bad.
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
Snowyclaw and fello jammers. We should put the statues of the shamans in our dens to show we care about the history of Jamaa!
ReplyDelete----Josh52214
That's the second best idea i've heard today!
DeleteThanks!
Delete----Josh52214
Well except the penguin, horse, and giraffe statues since those aren't named shamans.
Delete---Josh52214
No, put the penguin, horse, and giraffe so that people know that even though they don't have names, we care about them!
DeleteI think we should come up with our own names for them. I vote for the horse shaman to be named Lyra or Breeze, and the penguin to be named Sleet.
DeleteJamaa changes so fast, I only wish I could see what it use to look like. I am sorta new (almost a year on aj!), I have heared storys about the old jamaa. If possible please put pics of jamaa in the past, for the people who want to see, and trust me there are alot.
ReplyDelete~Macytoch
Come to blog http://ajbestopinionandmore.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteoh I have a great idea we should join lot of people in jamaa and do a march across jamaa
I just said that! I guess similar minds think alike.
DeleteAnimal Jam is being ridiculous lately. I don't want Animal Jam to be HUMAN Jam. Rares annoy me now because I think most people think rares are "the best thing" in Jamaa, which is WRONG. Jamaa's interesting legends and myths are the best things. I miss the shamans and guides. (I met some guides myself.) I first joined in Jaunary 2011, so I got to see the good times. I still remember the Coral Canyons shop. It's still very annoying of the fact that Animal Jam blames phantoms. I think Animal Jam is betraying us bit by bit. I'm starting to dislike AJ (I don't hate AJ though.) because of the fact Animal Jam has stopped being realistic. It's like humans invade Jamaa and FORCE the animals to be like humans. It's not fair, why does Animal Jam NOT listen to us? AJ HQ just wants money these days and it's very annoying because of the ads, the Member stuff, etc. I'm a member, but I care about Jamaa. I'm looking forward to telling my buddies about this... telling them to stop being modern and go back in the past. (Not in real life, just Animal Jam.) Sorry for the long comment. ^^'
ReplyDelete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan (P.S.- Jamaa lore rules! Much better than now!)
I agree. I remember that 'ol shop, too.
DeleteIf we could go back to beta times it would be awesome because there were no rares, and Jamaa was not humanized and modern.
DeleteCrazee4horses
Snowyclaw i want to tell you something. I just wrote to animal jam about this situation and that we want the shamans and everything this movement is for. I wrote a LONG message and i told them that we all wrote to them and that we REALLY want the shamans and NO human made stuff like the cruise ship.
ReplyDeleteI know that a lot of people wrote to them, but i explained all of this and hopefully i get a good answer back. I will send you the reply back if you want using the blog email. Also i will talk about it on my blog also. Anyway, I'm trying my best to make this movement come true!
-TheSafari07 :)
TOTALLY agree! I mean 6 years in AJ seeing the new waterslides I KNEW it was the start of humanity taking over!
DeleteI started playing in November of 2011. It was really cool but I knew nothing of the history. I thought it had always been like that.
ReplyDeleteBut anyway some of the human stuff can be cool, but theres other stuff we dont need. A small HOUSE for a den? The stuff needs to be like nature, like animals. Some stuff ties in, leaf necklaces, leaf armor, beause those are things nade of what you would find in the wild, where animals are.
I never got to meet any shaman besides Liza, but you don't interact with her. If we hadn't started this, you probably soon wont get to meet Liza. The iter shamans could be out exploring, but thats what Liza does. Peck should be in her art studio. Cosmo should be studying plants. Greely should be dojng magic. Where has this gone? Not to mention the nameless statues! We want more shamans, si what about the penguin, horse and giraffe statues?
About the new animals. As i said it proves that AJHQ is lazy and doesn't care about Jamaa's history.
Delete----Josh52214
Snowyclaw... i see your..... point but AJHQ are still UNDERLINE grown-ups and 400 people might not change the facts.....
ReplyDeleteIt is getting too much human-like!
ReplyDeleteAj is getting so humanity! Soon Ajhq will change animals to humans!! /)O,O(\ AjHq is just to busy probally but we want to OLD JAMAA BACK! With shammans,Spirit stones,stories, OH COME ON! WHERE ARE THOSE!?!?!?!!!??? AND AJHQ,STOP BLAMING THE PHANTOMS WHO HACK INTO THE GAMES!! WE HAVE TO STOP THE DATING THING, THE HUMANITY IM GONNA POST THIS ON MAH BLOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDelete... ummm...
DeleteI joined AJ from finding out about it from my friends at my old school. And still, I dont play for rares. I have a lot and like to have them if I can, btu I dont play AJ for 'em. I play to have fun with my friends. CB
ReplyDeleteI first played Animal Jam from a magazine! When I first stepped into Jamaa, I knew I would love this site. As the days moved on, this became my lifestyle, Animal Jam was a great way to learn and yet have fun. I still remember me stepping into Jamaa... I will never forget it.
ReplyDeleteFellow Jamaasians, It seems like Geckoguy, an author on another blog i follow, is also starting to notice these new modern items. He is an author for a blog called Animal Jam Community. just wanted to say that so you guys no other jammers care.
ReplyDelete-----Josh52214
TheSlidoo does too
DeleteOh yeah, Geckoguy is starting a blog about Jamaa's history. I commented on his blog and he supports our movement.
Deletejamaa is like the usa of today :I lets save it from taxes!!!!!!
ReplyDeletelol. :)
Delete-----Josh52214
Lol so true...
DeleteWhen u change animals, instead of orbs and magic (sorta of humanity) there can be wind and leaves swifting around!
ReplyDeleteI hate how some people LOVE how Jamaa is turning into real life. I was on Animal Jam Fiery (I am an author) and one of my fellow jammers posted this about the Flip Flops:
ReplyDeleteHey Jammers! Its TheSafari07 here. Today we have another clothing item. They are Flip Flops! You can get them on the 1st page of jam mart clothing and they cost 350 gems! These are perfect for the summer season! Make sure you get a pair!
See ya!
He LOVED the idea of Flip Flops on Animal Jam! That is so sad...
This. Is. Getting. Bad. Jammers are LIKING stuff that could ruin Animal Jam's future? I'm getting concerned about Animal Jam being HUMAN Jam or maybe Animal City... It's a very bad future for Animal Jam, and people LIKE IT? I don't think they understand that Animal Jam may have a human avatar... and that would be crazy, and not very nice... (Humans are invading Jamaa...)
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- Jamaa Township could be like Los Angeles on New York. The natural areas would be removed or replaced with MORE cities. Crystal Sands would be like Florida or Australia. This won't be good. I was saying about what Jamaa would look like in the Human-Like Future.
I don't know, flip flops aren't exactaly the evil doomsday device of Jammaa. And I am pretty sure that they won't do anything similar to what you just said.
DeleteOf course. I'm just being funny again, but being serious a bit too. It may not happen RIGHT AWAY, but it may happen step by step. Of course I usually only make comments that don't have true or false facts. I may be exxagerating, but however, I understand that it's not the doomsday device for Jamaa. XD
DeleteI may be wrong, but I may be right too. This is only an opinion/theory right now. Of course I do understand the critique on my reply. ;3
~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
i am going to send post cards to everyone (cuz i member) and tell them about it... i will even send it to random strangers!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I would do that except i'm not a member. Unfortunately.
Delete-----Josh52214
I understand about the shamans, but what's wrong with the cruise ship party and the waterslides? They may be 'human', but so are talking animals that wear clothes... I don't get it.
ReplyDeleteI agree. animals can do smart things!
DeleteYeah, and humans are animals too, I mean, either that or we are mutated plants. If you want AJ to be natural then that would mean getting rid of all the clothes, castle and other unnatural dens, the shops, Club Geoz, most games, and even the pets. I do wish it would be more traditional, but flip flops and cruise ships aren't really going to destroy Jamaa.
DeleteHere's the future for Jamaa if AJ HQ doesn't understand that we care about the folklore: A human stands on a balcony on New York City, Jamaa. The Mira statue has been removed and replaced with a tower with a sign that says, " Human Jam ROCKS!" The human looks at a girl below him and goes downstairs. They go... and you know the rest. That is the bad future for us. If Human Jam comes, we will be doomed. Why is Animal Jam being so human-like and ridiculous lately?
ReplyDelete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
Yesh that is going to happen and it does happen!
DeleteReally, I think that's an exaggeration. It's called ANIMAL JAM for a reason.
DeleteI don't think the AJ HQ people aren't that big of meanies to do anything remotely similar.
DeleteYes, I do understand about this, but this is only an opinion/theory. I know that AJ HQ isn't very mean like I exxagerated. I know that this isn't true yet, I could be wrong. I do understand your criticism, but I usually make theory comments. (Comments that are meant to be guesses/theories.) I don't usually make comments that are true facts. I hope this won't offend you...
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- I don't know the future of Jamaa, but my comments are usually theories. I hope that clears up the confusion...
We should start a march at Jamaa first to let everybody knows and listen, we should just wear animal clothes or wear nothing just be a animal at the march the go to Appondale then Serepia then Coral Canyons.
ReplyDeleteDo bow and arrows count as animal clothes?
DeleteI would spread the word of I didn't have spell check! Anyway, some people are missing the point. The Jammasian movement is not about abolishing humanity and bringing back beta. It's about bringing back the culture! A little humanity doesn't hurt, I mean, animals can do smart things too! They might have seen human stuff and thought, " hey, that's pretty cool! How did they do that?" Besides, would YOU like to buy your stuff in a cave?
ReplyDeleteAnd I beta tested, and people are over romanticizing it. Maybe it had more rares. Maybe it had all this other stuff. But you couldn't speak your mind! You HAD to be on safe chat! Anyway I think the Jammasian movement is about the shamans and culture and stories. Not about beta and having no humanity. Have a nice day.
The Jamaasian movement is a great idea, but you cant be involved in it. The whole point of having that party was to begin the movement. Instead everyone wanted a picture with you or for you to add them. If that keeps happening the Jamaasian Movement will never be complete.
ReplyDelete-A Friend
I don't know about you all but... The AJ person didn't really sound like they cared... :/ I hope this works snowyclaw. I wish I could have the chance to meet Greely :3
ReplyDeleteAre you talking about me?
Delete-----A Friend
You know what i relized? animal jam has no Purpose!!!! What happend to it?!?!?! there used to be a purpose and that purpose was to have FUN!!!AND PLAY WILD! how can we do that if there's no secrets, lore, and exploring?!?!? There are no names to the new shamans and there is no storys and practicaly no NEW LANDS!!! their practically ruining trading by bringing back all the old rares!!!! Im thinking about getting them to make new servers. Themed servers! like a clan server or something to have a purpose in animal jam!
ReplyDeletehopefully animal jam will see the comment and do something ABOUT IT! THEY DO NOTHING ABOUT ANYTHING!!!!!!!!
I hope you people read this comment this is the real now KIDS NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT ANIMAL JAM!!!! IT'S BECOMING HUMAN JAM!!!!
I hope this comment does not offend anybody
-Emeson
I agree about everything, except the themed servers. It wouldn't be nice or fun if you were in a Rabbits-Only Server, but your buddy is in a Seals-Only Server, and you don't have a seal (only an example.) I completely agree with the rest, and I hope Human Jam won't exist, at least for now...
Delete~ The One and Only True Spider Fan
P.S.- I'm not offending you. The truth is that I'm against clans and violence so I must disagree with a clan server. What if the server had violence in it? :l
These AJHQ workers are too lazy to put the lore back into jamaa they just think "Oh these kids will have fun if theres no culture in jamaa so its okay to destroy that." "Oh whatever we do they will be happy with it." "We can blame the phantoms for our own faults they will never notice" But guess what we DO notice and we are NOT ok with it!!! We arent Okay with you humanizing AJ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So stop sitting around and do something for a change! Please! AJ is getting worse and worse by the moment our culture is slipping away!

i havent seen the old jamma before i joined earlier this year but i would think it would be awesome to see the old drama
ReplyDeletei mean jamma ~ cutepup12355
Deleteyes, animal jam has changed at an incredible rate. so much emphasis on fashion, haves vs the have nots, scamming is still about, being rude and saying mean things, clans, sometimes downright evil, and everything is so expensive. ya you got it right Snowy, adults run it; there is a slight hint of democracy wannabe they let the kids do contest and stuff to make them feel they are part of the process...ha, i have already given up one of my memberships and will probably surrender the other one soon. whole new generation coming in i guess...
ReplyDeleteJamaa was better in a simpler time
ReplyDeleteA Krabby Pattier time
I mean simpler time xp
Spongebob :D
DeleteI feeel like u snowy because these "rares" are nothing. these "rares" ruin everything. Thats why im giving mine away i mean seriously, whats the point anymore?? Is it really worth all the hacking, scamming, rudeness, and bullying?? Why do people have to be so cruel about online items?? And online dating, really? there are sites made for that so it doesnt get into sites like this, kids sites. And i mean seriously we need are culture back it is the missing puzzle piece to put jamaa back together, the real jamaa, not just some ripoff jamaa! It would make jamaa better again, peeps wit rares would notice nonrare peeps and actually HAVE a conversation with thewm!!! No more scamming and hacking over rares, bc they DONT matter! eveeryone would know about mira, zios, etc. But i mean really, REALLY, what has jamaa come to!!!!!!
ReplyDelete~Supastar101
I totally agree. Animal Jam is getting out of hand. I think we need to change it. You are right Snowyclaw. The only way we can make a change is by working together.
ReplyDeleteshould'nt jamma be a place thats not like the real world i would love to see the old jamma like in my old commet i have never seen it but right now it keeps adding more modern stuff ~cutepup12355
ReplyDeleteI TOTALLY AGREE! i almost cries tears of joy ;) I do believe that Jamaa is becoming more... humain. Heck next thing you know they'll change the animal characters to human beings! THAT would be dramatic. I mean there a reason why they called this place ANIMAL jam!
ReplyDeleteALL RIGHT!!! AT LEAST SOMEONE GOT MY POINT!!!
ReplyDeletei read the history of animal jam when it was on their website!
ReplyDeleteDear snowy,
ReplyDeleteI know the true story of jamaa I think the shamans r trapped I've been looking for Mira. I did find something.look near the Mira statue in Jamma township.on a Collum there are little yellow markings.i dont know wht they mean.plz help me

I sent an E-Mail To Jamaa, and they replied:
ReplyDeleteLiz, Jun 22 19:15 (MDT):
Hi There, Jammer!
Thank you for contacting Animal Jam HQ, and might we add, that's a very wild question! As you may know, the Shamans are very mysterious. They are the leaders of each kind of animal, and are the guardians and protectors of Jamaa. They spend most of their time exploring new lands, and bringing new types of animals back to Jamaa. Since they are quite busy in other lands, we don't see them very often.
We want to let you know that even though you may not see the Shamans, you can still help them out by being a Super Citizen of Jamaa! Isn't that cool?
Here are just a few examples of things you can do to help fellow Jammers:
- Start your own game and invite new Jammers
- Host a party with a fun theme
- Invite a new player to your den
- Answer your fellow Jammer's questions
- Run your very own guided tours!
The sky is the limit as a Super Citizen. If you see someone that needs help, go for it. Also remember, if you see someone breaking the rules, don't be afraid to send in a Player Report!
Thanks for helping to make Jamaa a better place. Good luck, be safe, and play wild!
Animal Jam HQ
I think we must all start by being super citizens. That way, we can spread the word.
Copy and paste this ( the whole thing even the copy and paste part):
ReplyDeleteWe Jamaicans
have passion
that we can
start this again
We want the spirit
So lets hear it
Come on shamans
start over the lands
We had the rares
which was fair
but now all we need is
THE SPIRIT!!
