#Shell Helmet

Hey Jammers! :D 

Today's new item is the Shell Helmet on sale in Bahari Bargains. 

Wow, it's been a long time since we have had some item on sale in Bahari Bargains. However, for some reason I feel as if this item never went out of stores and that AJHQ just decided to slap on a new sign because they were too tired or something. Was this item gone? :P

Also, yesterday I went to a party. Clearly I was expecting nice jammers with good intentions. I realized that they were all great big buffoons. If you don't agree with me then take a look at this picture. 

No my friends he doesn't have a bear on him. He wan'ts to buy us all an alcoholic drink. 

So I then told everyone to stop and nicely the orange fox who was "working" in the "bar" surrendered nicely. 

After, that dude in Phoenix Armor started telling me I was wrong for wearing clothes! 

I was like, he's out of his bongos!! So I said, your point? Oh, that's right you don't have one! 

Eventually he left me alone and the party calmed down after I reported the host. 

So, in the aftermath of all of this, if you are ever on AJ and see this, stop it immediately. 

It's not right that those who shouldn't understand about something completely for adults to learn from idiotic kids who think it's cool. 

Would you stop inappropriate behavior? 

Enjoy!~

Note to self, must write introduction to my story blog. 

13 Questions with Kinyonga

Hey Jammers! :D 

Here is the long- awaited post about another jammer, 13 Questions with Kinyonga! The sequel to the MEGA-HIT 13 Questions with Snowyclaw. 

13 Questions with Kinyonga was conducted through e-mail since Kiny and I live in very differen't time zones where it is nearly impossible to see each other in Jamaa.

Now a short introduction on Kinyonga. As narrated by Morgan Freeman. It seems Morgan Freeman couldn't make it to tonight's ceremony honoring Kinyonga. It will instead be written. 

Kinyonga, another one of our avid jammers is probably one of the greatest well actually THE greatest friend a person could ever have. Kinyonga enjoys making people laugh, the word meep, and photography. She even plans on being a future zoologist! Now without further ado here are the questions.

1. What made you join AJ how did you learn about AJ?

Response:1. I found an ad to Animal Jam on the NG Kids website - it was of a koala dancing on a disco floor. My sister was right next to me, and I said it looked kind of...nowaday-ish, if you know what I mean? (That's the sort of stuff I don't like.) But I clicked it anyway and here I am! ^.^ My first account was actually Siliseal, but I made Kinyonga when I wanted to become a member. "Sili" means "seal" in Kiswahili so the username is a pretty odd one :p

2. What made you start your blog Animal Jam Times?

Response:2. I really can't remember. I think I was looking up if it was possible to become a member for free (already knowing the answer was "no") and I found a couple of AJ blogs that inspired me.

3. What does the word meep mean? XD 

Response:3. "Meep" means nothing and everything at the same time - it can mean whatever you want!

4. You seem to have huge stockpiles of items, what is your secret? Coupons perhaps? lol

Response:4. There's not really a secret, lol. Just trading, I guess. Oh, and buying stuff when they go out for clearance. I remember my first "rare" was a clover blanket that I traded from Lokithorrrrr...I was chasing him all over Jamaa Township and The Lost Temple of Zios XD

5. Do you actually believe AJHQ is out to get you or doesn't like you since they always suspend you or such? 

Response:5. Yes, I do! After I was de-suspended, I called them up about something. They answered, and you have to say your username and stuff. And when I said "Kinyonga - K, I, N, Y, O, N, G, A." the man said "Oh" in a kind of "Oh not YOU" way! :p

6. Have you ever though of being a comedian?  (some of the stuff you write is hilarious) 

Response:6. XD How did you know? My sister keeps saying I should be one - when I was younger I wanted to be an actress...but now I think I'd like to be a zoologist and wildlife photographer ^.^

7. What is it like traveling to places such as Kenya? 

Response:7. Amazing! Just amazing. We go there for Dad's work, so we don't really go on "safaris" and stuff, but it's still easier to see a wild zebra there than to see a wild deer back in England. My 2 favourite countries (in no order - and that I've been to) are: England and Kenya. <3

8. What is the most terrifying experience you ever had? 

Response:8. Heck! Well, if it's the one when I was most scared, I'm afraid to say it was when a vervet monkey climbed into a tree right next to me, where I was reading a book. Monkeys are very unpredictable because if you just SMILE at them, they think you're being aggressive, plus they can carry rabies. Well, that was the scariest, I think... 

9. How are you? :P 

Response:9. I'm fine XD

10. Have you ever been to America or another country other than France, England, and Kenya? If so what did you think of it? 

Response:10. Yes, I have - but not America, though I'd love to go to Brazil and Alaska! I think I've only been to three different countries for actual holidays, and not Dad's work: Denmark, Sweden and Morocco. I loved it in all of those places! <3

11. What is your most favorite item ever in AJ?

Response:11. Ouch...I'm not sure. Bat wings, I suppose.

12. Do you consider photography to be one of your hobbies or do you plan to have a career with it? 

Response:12. I plan to have a career with it, yes.

13. What is your favorite aspect about Animal Jam?

Response: 13. The nature side of things, plus the lovely people I've met! ^.^

I'm sure you agree with me when I say that Kinyonga is awesome! Not only that but it seems she has a bright future ahead of her! You go Kin! Applause please! XD

13 Questions With Snowyclaw~

Hey Jammers! :D
This is an all new series (that I have always wanted to do but never got around to it) where I interview some well known jammers about their favorite things about our wonderful world of Jamaa! Our first interview was with Snowyclaw by e-mail since Snowy is very busy! ^.^

You all know Snowyclaw an avid jammer and the author/creator of the current most popular AJ blog Animal Jam Spirit! Well curious to know more about this well known jammer, I asked her 13 questions on aj and blogging. So here's what Snowy had to say....
Question 1: When did you join AJ and what made it catch your eye?
Response:  I joined AJ summer of 2010 (the beta time period) because I saw an add in National Geographic Kids!
Question 2: What is your favorite AJ item, land, and place?
Response: I like all items and lands, but I do love to hang out in the Zios' Temple. :)

Question 3: What's your favorite AJ Game?
Response: I enjoy Falling Phantoms and Trivia!

Question 4: What made you want to start your blog?
Response:  I met Graham the monkey alpha (still a shaman then) in June 2011, and I saw a part of Jamaa that many jammers weren't able to learn about anymore. The SPIRIT of Jamaa needed a boost!

Question 5: Do you think you have inspired many people to follow in your footsteps? 

Response:  I hope so! Blogging is such a fun experience. ^.^

Question 6:  Do you like all the popularity you have as a result of your blogging? 

Response:  I don't think I'm that popular, but I always love to meet new jammers!

Question 7:  How did you come up with the word Jamaasian? 

Response: It felt . . . right. I think that if you truly embody and represent the core values of Animal Jam, you are a Jamaasian. Uphold the spirit of this game and you yourself are something more!

Question 8: Have you ever considered quitting your AJ blog? 

Response:  Not really, I love it too much!

Question 9:  What is your favorite aspect of AJ?

Response: The learning and the imagination... It's a world apart!

Question 10: Do you have a favorite Alpha? 

Response:  I admire Greely's ability to balance his dark and light natures. :)

Question 11:  What is your favorite color?

Response:  Maybe blue or silver?

Question 12:   Who is your best buddy on AJ?

Response:  I have many many amazing buddies!

Question 13: Do you think nonmembers should have more equality than they do now?

Response: . I don't want AJ to become a game like Club Penguin, where the nonmems are stuck in the bottom of the heap. I think they should be getting a little bit more freedom (more items, one pet, ect.)

This has been 13 Questions with Snowyclaw! I definitely think you and I have now learned a lot about Snowy. Hopefully we will all be able to find Snowy in Jamaa!  I always think it's a great idea to get to know someone. 

Future 13 Question Candidates: 

Kinyonga, Feelers, BlueGecko, MisterChunkyBuddy, Goofy8966, Sheesh4, TheSafari07 and MANY.. MANY more! :D 

Enjoy~

Everyone Should Be Equal~

Everyone Should be Equal~

Hey Jammers! :D

Here's that post on what I feel should be the way AJ should be. Everyone should be equal but that's not the case here. There's a big division between people in AJ and its Members and Nonmembers. All the time AJHQ goes so far into limiting what the nonmembers can have just so they can increase their revenue and get more money. I think it's ok for them to get money, I mean someone has to pay them for what they do but I think that they go too far with some things. This is what I think nonmembers should have a privilege on.

• Nonmembers should be able to color their items. I mean think about it its like saying don't breath air. How can you let non-member jammers express themselves if they can't even choose their own favorite colors. I mean it's ridiculous to buy a membership just so you can get your favorite color. 

• Nonmembers should be able to receive gifts on jam-a-grams. It's not fair that they can't receive a gift from their buddies so they can have it. Enough said.  

• Nonmembers should at least have ONE pet. Come on seriously its not fair to give it all to members I mean seriously I wouldn't mind nonmembers having at least one pet! Even if they were just allowed the dog pet.

• Nonmembers should be able to have at least 2 dens, we have at least 9 or 8 member dens it would hurt to give nonmembers a chance at having the volcano den since it is the smallest member den. 

• Nonmembers should have the chance to have a free trial membership that lasts 3 days or so. It gives them a chance to see if they really like being a member and would help them see what a membership has to offer! Don't you think! 

• Nonmembers should get a special gift every month just like we do. If you think about it around 75% of Jamaa is made up of nonmembers. AJ wouldn't even get over 1,000,000 players without nonmembers. So why not giving them a gift to show them that they are just as important as we are! 

• Nonmembers should have the right to have at least 3 animals. I mean some jammers like a wolf and bunny but they can't get into the seas because it only lets them choose 2!

Do you agree with what I think nonmembers should have the right to have? If you have other ideas on what nonmembers should have then give a shout out through the comments and I'll add it on here and give you the credit for that idea.

Enjoy!~
