total calamity?

Heyyo Jammers

 

I don't really know why I'm making this post...okay actually I do. I'm procrastinating no, not the main reason anyway. I guess I just wanted to put something up? Another rant so the last post on this blog isn't the one below this? An explanation for the cool layout but lack of activity? Yeah, that's it!

 

See, I'm currently on break so I decided to come on blogger and uhm, fix things up on the AJT? I've been doing lots of graphic design stuffs and html coding lately so I felt like applying my knowledge ^.^ I know I don't exactly play Animal Jam anymore but I thought, why not one more ramble on my blog, that brings back plenty of memories. (2012, good times)

 

So yeah. I've looked around and saw lots of Animal Jam blogs have gone inactive by now, I can't say I'm surprised (look at this one) but what I can say is that the game is definitely changing.

 

 I went online today just to check up on my account, and starting with the homepage, I noticed it's really been revamped...maybe the change in marketing strategies, new ways to create entertainment in the changing ideals of players... I'm not going to get deep but I will say this, to me the old Animal Jam is a virtue.

 

turn back time...to the good old days...

a good song, but extremely overplayed

 

Back when you had to go hunting to find minigames to play, monthly member gifts were given out instead of that Diamond Shop mayhem, the parties dropdown was more compact, being a nonmember and you had to beg and barter to get items of a different color? -Okay, that's not a good thing but it's weirdly nostalgic.

 

Anyways, I spent a lot of time on this game years past so as an old timer seeing all the changes made to make it more 'modern' just feels kinda weird. Most of the upgrades aren't bad or anything, but I guess I just miss the former days and when everything was more...simple? <probably the only one who thinks that 

 

Nice sharing my opinion, though!

 

I dunno. Not my choice anyway, I just came back to look around and see everything. So, if the ramble wasn't a good one, I'm alive and things are a-changing. I may or may not post again but it was pretty cool coming back today! Merry xmas eve, happy Hanukkah and holidays and I wish you luck in all your joyous celebrations!
