Why is Animal Jam Offline?

Hey jammers! As you may have noticed, Animal Jam was a bit off yesterday (offline that is) due to AJHQ doing some routine checkups and server updates. However, sure to check out yesterday's returning item in the post below. Speaking of returning, today's new item is also one jumping back from the black hole of rarity.
Fossilized Tooth Necklace sold in Bahari Bargains.
If you think about it, "rarity" really is a bit like a black hole. I shall resist my temptation to expand the metaphor... Must... Resist... Fine, if I can't speak metaphorically, I shall go on an offline tangent!

Despite all the silly rumors for why Animal Jam was down, it was just for maintenance. There was no crime committed, the world didn't get swallowed by phantoms, and updates only occur on Thursdays. ^.^ AJHQ was actually trying to help us by expanding the world, allowing more jammers to play at the same time! It isn't perfect yet though; many jammers have been having visibility problems in adventures especially.
Uh oh, jam52099 is going on an adventure with a ghost! Hehe, you can tell when AJ is on update mode when you log in.

The right picture is of an older version of the offline banner. Now the visual is of Liza with a funny expression on her face. Basically, don't get too mad when AJHQ needs to be a fixin' the glitchin'.
Captured by glaciarie!
Cause we certainly don't want that to happen! What do you think AJHQ was up to in this last bug fixing update? Why do you think everyone panics when Jamaa isn't available when they think it is?

My den is going to be open all day today, if you'd like to stop by.
Happy jamming!

    4. Congrats on your comment. ^.^
      Snowy has a lot of storage accounts, but they're mostly inactive.. I have never heard of Snowy99596 though. You can never be sure these days, a lot of people like the word "Snowy."

      Delete
    5. About Snowyclaw's storages I think I saw one of hers. I was in the Conservation Museum in Appondale a few months ago, and came back from a "brb." It was a nonmember account and the user was "Snowyclaw" -numbers I forgot. She was being so nice to this other wolf ^.^
      Me on AJ: Hello! - does :) face -
      Me in real life: OMG is it one of Snowyclaw's storages!? Whoa. .O. xD

  24. Continuing my Story- AGAIN! XD Enjoy! Dun dun duunn....
    *Part 1: The Evil Phantom King*
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Now, I wasn't that exhilarated to instantly fight the Phantom King. I flung open the Phantom King's door. It must of been a phantom office, or something. From where I could see, I saw piles of paper; some had disgusting purple phantom goo on them. "Eww!" I thought. "This place already has the worst stench on Earth, now seeing that this place is messy and even more gross... Eww!" Just then, another one of the millions of papers fell from one of the big purple Phantom Desks. Then from behind a door- an office door, I guessed- there was a loud bang. "Ugh! Freddy, how many more times do I have to tell you to NEVER, ever unlock an animal's cage without consulting me first!" the Phantom King screamed at one of his phantom workers, Freddy. Just then I heard a quiet cheer as a little bunny raced past the other phantoms and escaped the room. I hid behind a bookshelf as the bunny raced past and opened the other door to freedom. Just as I was about to go out from hiding, I heard the Phantom King shriek. "I can't and will not trust you again, Phantom Freddy. From this moment on... YOU'RE FIRED! You don't work for me anymore or an other Phantom Ranks, you understand!?" "Yes master," I heard a phantom called Freddy sniff. The door flung open; the King kicked Freddy out of his room. I glanced at him. I can't believe I thought this- especially as I killed all the Phantom Guards outside, just a few minutes ago- but I actually felt SORRY for that phantom Freddy. Freddy floated close to the floor, his head (or whatever/wherever a phantom's head is) drooping. He was a small phantom; like a little kid. With purple tears streaming down Freddy's face and a large black bruise on one of his legs (or arms, I couldn't tell) he opened the door and slowly floated out- and never came back again.

    At the office door, I finally saw the Phantom King. A huge phantom, nearly 50 times bigger than regular phantoms- especially poor little phantom Freddy. I was surprised that Freddy even was ALLOWED to be able to work, never mind for his King! He was like an innocent little kid working for an evil king! The Phantom King had a large head and limbs. On his face was a smile that was really creepy. His smile showed his teeth- or the rest of his teeth anyways. He had lots of holes in his mouth, and cracked purple and black teeth. I panicked. How would I defeat him? Maybe he's awful at fighting alone and with no assistance. I thought hopefully.

    I kept still hiding behind a Phantom Desk. My eyes blazed like blue fire. " He abused one of his own workers!" I thought in my head. "This makes me hate the Phantom King even more. Abusing everyone who I care about and love, including his own phantom workers is just absurd!" My claws scraped against the hard floor, and my eyes narrowed to slits. "This will be a battle you'll never forget," I whispered. "Because you will lose, and I- well I will win and be victorious."

  26. I have a story of Greely. I hope you'll enjoy!

    Once there was a wolf pack. It had stict rules and any wolf that disobayed them you would be EXIELD. Greely was born with a twin. His twin, was a brat, and everyone loved him. And he overreacted TOO much. Greely HATED his twin. Once they were playing and Greely's twin, Aonghus, was touched by a rock. He sceamed and ran to their mom. Of couse Greely was blamed. After that Greely took his twin into a cave and conered him. Greely growled. he said, "You're a brat. You think you so awsome. You overreact. You blame me for everything bad that happens to you. EVEN IF I'M ON THE OTHER SIDE OF CAMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He stood over his brother. Suddenly the alpha came in. He threw Greely off of his brother. He asked him if he was alright. He said that Greely was trying to kill him. The alpha banished him at that moment. His brother watched him as he left. He said " Ha, I never liked you. " Greely said, " I never like you either. Go to tell mom if you want you BRAT, YOU FOX POOP, YOU MONEY POOP!!!!!!" Greely ran off, never to be seen by his wolf pack again. He manged to live on his own. But he never frogot about his wolf pack. Soon after he had grown up, he found Jamma. Soon Liza asked him if he wanted to be an alpha. He said "yes" but one of the alphas had a grudge on HIM.
