A Call to Action!

Greetings Jammers, Arcticstar here. I have an incredible announcement to make:

The Animal Jam Community Blog will be hosting yet another Author Tryouts!

We haven't a sufficient amount of authors currently, due to the unfortunate loss of some of our finest writers. Sad as it is, the blog must continue, and new people are needed to help keep this blog running!

The current schedule looks like this:

Sunday: Arcticstar
Monday: Arcticstar
Tuesday: Grace
Wednesday: *open*
Thursday: *open*
Friday: Grace
Saturday: *open*

There we have three possible openings for new authors. So, I will be hiring 2 or 3 new authors to help Grace and I write new posts.

If you are wanting one of these positions, either send me an email with a sample post (a post showing how you would write if you were an author) at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com , or leave a comment with a sample post. And, if you know of someone who would be interested, be sure to tell them about this opportunity!! *In your email/comment, please state which day(s) you will be available to post*

I must set a few rules, however:

1. Be appropriate in your writing. Ridiculous comments/emails/general writing will be ignored and deleted.
2. Please stay on topic. If you receive the position, it is great if you do something fun that is a post segment, but do not post about nothing at all.
3. Please be aware that signing up for this means you are making a commitment to posting. It is completely understandable if you become ill, are on vacation, or something has occurred in your life that requires you to be away, however, some perseverance is expected.
4. You must have a Blogger (google) account. Without one, no matter how amazing at posting you are, we cannot hire you.

YOUR FORMAT SHOULD BE:

1. Two to three sentences about why you think you deserve to be an Animal Jam Community author

2. A sample post showing what you can do

3. What day(s) you will be available to post (Wednesday, Thursday, or Saturday)

4. Your experience in writing (this one is optional, but if you have posted on a blog before, or done something interesting writing related, be sure to put that in!)

5. Include your email address so I may get back to you.

The deadline for this is Saturday, January 9th, and the results will be sent via email to the newly hired authors!

Good luck, and let the writing begin!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Tuesday!

Hello everybody and welcome back to another Grace2092 post every Tuesday and Friday for your entertainment!

So lets get started, new in stores are... Snowman! Cute, huh? Well in Jamaa Mart Furniture store, you can buy a Snowman for I think 250 gems. I think it is very cute and has an adorable scarf and beanie. Though, when I saw it, brand new, it did not have a "new" sign on it. So, anyway, But that today for a cute winter wonderland look to your den!

What else? Oh, yes! New Years Eve! So as you know, New Years Eve is coming and so is the new you in 2016! So you know how people make a new year, like a new life, start fresh and clean. Well, while you make your New Years Resolution, put something that has to do with Animal Jam on there, like if you scam, talk about NOT scamming, or if you are rude to people, try not to be, or if you are addicted to Animal Jam, ease off, its not healthy. 

Also if you are somebody who wants to be neat and organized. (I love being neat and organized, I enjoy cleaning sometimes) Then you should clean up your account. Here is a list of what to do:

1. Recycle every den item you do not need, you can make gems and free up some space, and make sure you get everything, if you think you want it, think again, are you really, truly gonna use this?

2. Recycle all of unwanted clothing, do the same to the den items I talked about.

3. Recycle unwanted dens, pets and animals.

4. Delete everybody on your buddy list that is not a close friend or family member.

5.To everybody that you do not like or had a fight with on Animal Jam, say sorry and forgive them.

6. To all your close friends, send them thank you gifts.

7. Redecorate all your dens, make them nice, homey, and pretty.

8. Redecorate all your animals, nice, pretty.

9. Buy everything new that you wanted, and needed, make sure you are packed up, like being stored for the winter, make sure you have everything you want, but do not go overboard :D

10. Go to the arcade and earn gems. Raise enough gems to a certain amount of money, I'm not talking 2,000, im talking 10,000 or 15,000. Always make sure you have a lot of money in your account.

11. Make new friends on Animal Jam and make sure you be more social, do things you don't ususally do, like if you do not go to Mt. Shiveer a lot, go there more often :)

12. Make a schedule on how long a day you can go on Animal Jam, do not want to get to addicted to games.

So I hope you guys are having a wonderful winter like I am and have an awesome week! I will be posting on New Years Eve so make sure to check that out and have a wonderful day too!

Fun Fact! There is a planet called 55 Cancri E that is made 1/3 out of diamond, it is 40 light years away and is 2,000 degrees, 18 hours is one year there and its a blue planet. How cool is that? I am really fascinated in that kind of stuff :)

Rare Item Monday!

Greetings, Arcticstar here, and welcome to another post! Christmas Break has begun for me, so I can continue my regular posting schedule.

Today's rare item is the Rare Candy Cane Socks! I think that this item is quite cute. I've always liked the candy cane socks, and despite this item being a recolour, I can very much appreciate the colour scheme!

And now, it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Erstwhile: At one time.

I have never heard this word before!

Our fact of the day:

One teaspoon of water contains about three times as many atoms as the Atlantic Ocean contains teaspoons of water.

That is so amazing to think about!

I have some big plans coming up, my friends. So stay tuned this week!!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Leaving for a while

Hello, it's Ferret here, and I think I'll just get straight to the point.
I haven't posted in months.
This blog seems to have written me out. It's okay, I'm not the famous AJammer type.
I have a few more things I need to focus on:

1. Life blog
2. School
3. My bunny (he needs more out-of-cage time)

I really am sorry for posting on a Friday, but I couldn't take it anymore.
I am not quitting forever.
Click here if you miss me so much you want to email me.
My two Scratch accounts are TwiceExceptionalTwen and Ferretlove36036.
Without further ado,

I never did like the pink siggy much but who am I to go against popular opinion?

Hello Jammers!

Hey guys! Welcome to another Grace2092 post every teusday and friday entertainment!

I am here to tell you what is new! Like how members can now host parties, and how you can buy pet panguins, much more too!

I think this is homemade awesome sauce! I love the idea of hosting parties and pet penguins are sooo cute! Tell me about what you did with your party and if you got a penguin! I hope you guys are having a awesome sauce friday! School break!

Fact of the day, there is a planet that has small bits of glass that fly in the wind sideways at 4,000 miles per hour. Wow, just wow.

Coming Back, and Extra Information!

Greetings Jammers!

Before you read this post, be sure to check out Grace's post below, about her contest!

As you can probably tell, I have been absent for a while, and no new posts have been made. This is for a number of reasons:

Firstly, I have had acting duties and activities at my school which have required that I wake up extremely early, so that I may, essentially stand out in the cold for a Tableau Piece we have been working on! Because of this, I have needed to sleep early, and wake up early, leaving me with very little time to even think about posting! My apologies for this!

Next, I have had a great expanse of difficult tests and projects crammed into this week, as it is the last day before Christmas Break! Starting Christmas Break, my posts will become more proper, and I will bring in some new ideas into the Animal Jam Community.

I haven't the time for the actual, standard post today, however, I do have an announcement to make.

I have become an administrator for the Animal Jam Community Blog. This means I will be moderating the comments, and I have a bit more control over what goes on with the blog, My main focus now is to handle the comment section, and perhaps bring some new ideas to this place!

Happy Jamming, my friends. I shall see you later this week!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Friday!

Hello Jammers its Friday and welcome back to another Grace2092 post!

Rare Item Monday!

Greetings Jammers, and welcome to yet another post!

The Rare Item for today is the Rare Epic Antlers! This particular rare was released early, and was in stores yesterday. Nonetheless, I have to say I greatly like this rare. Despite the fact that this is a re-coloured item, I love the creativity that has gone into it! On top of the original item, they have added different patterns, another time they did this was a few weeks back with the Rare Heart Skull helmet, I believe! Be sure to buy one of these today in Jam Mart Clothing for the excellent price of 550 gems!

And now, it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Felicity: Pleasantness

An excellent replacement for simple overused language!

Our fact of the day:

Bhutan is the only country to have officially adopted gross national happiness instead gross domestic product as their main development indicator.

How interesting!

Have a lovely day!

New Jamaaliday Items and Jammer Sundae #51!

Anywho, I strongly suggest you get these items. A large number of them are for non members and members alike! Be sure to pick these up at Jam Mart Furniture!

Being Sunday it only makes sense that we have yet another:

How about, this week we do silly dogs?

Relatable moments for dogs:

The intense competition:

And now, it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Rake and Leaf Pile!

Greetings Jammers, welcome to yet another post!

Today, in the land of Jamaa, we have a returning item: welcome back the Rake and Leaf Pile! This item is lovely, and just in time for fall too! I have to say, it is definitely a great addition for a seasonal den. Be sure to buy one of these for 400 gems in Jam Mart Furniture!

And now, it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Evaluative: Exercising or involving careful appraisals.

This is an interesting word, don't you think? We all need to keep evaluative eyes upon our work!

Our fact of the day:

 Broccoli is the only vegetable that is also a flower.

I always thought the little sprouts upon broccoli looked like little blossoms!

Have a lovely day, Jammers!

Dear AJ-Offers

Dear AJ-Offers

You are right. I did go overboard, and I admit my mistake. Just all I ask if you please leave us alone, we did nothing to you. All we are is a blog for Animal Jam. We just want to go back to posting without getting cyber-bullied by you. I was rude and I was not thinking earlier, I am sorry for the things that I said.

But please stop writing rude comments when all we are doing is our job, saying what is new, writing factual posts. I, personally, am sorry earlier for writing those things, must have woken up on the wrong side of the bed to get that mad at you.

All we ask is for you to NOT write mean comments and to NOT cuss. This blog is for children, 4-17, but what you say can be hurtful to our workers. Please just  stop.

Thank you very much and have a great day.

Sincerely,
Grace2092

Ha, Aj-Offers, we're not stupid.

I even made a 76-frame GIF to prove it. XD.

I am no idiot. Please see Arcticstar8404's post here :)

Happy Thanksgiving, Americans!

Rare Item Monday!

Greetings Jammers, welcome to yet another Monday post!

Today, in the land of Jamaa, our new item is the Rare Pilgrim Hat! Despite the fact that this is a recoloured item, I like that they gave it a matching colour scheme to last week's rare! Pilgrim hats in general are quite cute, so I am pleased with this item. Be sure to buy one of these for the excellent price of only 450 gems in Jam Mart Clothing!

And now, it is time for the factual part of this post!

The word of the day:

Surreptitious: Secretive, sneaky.

I suppose you can describe the new little Arctic foxes as surreptitious!

The fact of the day:

10% of a persons life is speculated to be spent with their eyes closed because of blinking.

10% of your life is spent blinking? How crazy is that?!

Have a lovely day, see you on Wednesday!

Coral Snowman and Special 50th Jammer Sundae!

Greetings, Jammers! I have a very special post in store for you, so let's get on with our business, now shall we?

Today in the land of Jamaa, we have a returning item: The Coral Snowman! I've never loved this item, but I can't deny that it is creative! All that AJHQ decided to use to 'make' the snowman is so well thought out. However, I fail to see how this snowman is made of coral. It simply looks as though it is made of rocks to me! Be sure to buy this item for 300 gems in Sunken Treasures!

And now, it is time for our Jammer Sundae... wait! What's that? It's the 50th Jammer Sundae?! How crazy amazing is that?! In that case, let's get into the details of how this all began...

When my posts were in their prime, or as I like to call it, the Golden Age, the blog used to have many, many commenters - so much so that 30 comments on a single post was a regular occurrence. During this time, I met a buddy on Animal Jam named Jammersundae (the numbers on the username, I have since forgotten as it has been a few years). She was very kind and inspired me to make my posts better. After she quit, I decided to start a new post segment known as Jammer Sundaes, so that I bring more joy into the daily lives of my beloved fellow jammers!

My original banner for Jammer Sundaes was this:

After a while of posting with this banner, my dear friend Mldriver made a new and improved banner for me. Ever since then, I have been using this excellent banner:

Best wishes for the future, Mldriver!

Every week, the Jammer Sundaes were improved upon and have become the four-picture format that you know today! Now that you know a bit more about the history of Jammer Sundaes, let's top it off with another great Jammer Sundae!

We must promote awareness for this cause!

dumpaday.com

The truth of this is crazy:

nedhardy.com

Why is it that my pictures almost always turn out looking like this?

dumpaday.com

This little guy is giving all the chameleons out there a run for their money!

snappypixels.com

That's all for today's Jammer Sundae. Which one was your favourite? Personally, I love the "cheese dog". If you have suggestions for Jammer Sundaes, feel free to email them to me, or leave a link to the image in the comments!

And now, it is time for the fabulous factual part of this post!

Here is our lovely word of the day:

Redolent: Fragrant

What a wonderful word to described sweet smells!

And here, is our interesting fact of the day:

The letters "ough" can be pronounced in nine different ways depending on the word! Here is proof:

1. Rough - pronounced "uff"
2. Dough - pronounced "oh"
3. Thoughtful - pronounced "aw"
4. Plough- pronounced "ow"
5. Through - pronounced "ooh"
6. Scarborough - pronounced "uh"
7. Slough - pronounced "ou"
8. Cough - pronounced "off"
9. Hiccough - pronounced "up"

Isn't the English Language crazy sometimes?!

Have a wonderful day, my friends. I shall see you all bright and early tomorrow for a Rare Item Monday post!

By the way, it would be nice if you could tell me how my new Signature Banner looks at the bottom of this post. Feedback would be greatly appreciated - I just made it yesterday, and would like to know if it looks alright or not!

Happy Jamming!

You are welcome to contact me whenever you wish at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Heyo!

Hello guys and welcome back to a Grace2092 post every friday for your entertainment!

Hey and I just want to say HAPPY FRIDAY, THE BEST DAY OF THE WEEK, SCHOOLS OUT! I have to say that I am not that happy because I have a painful tummy bug :(

So lets talk about what happened on the new Jamaa Journal! Can you believe that the new arctic foxes have come? WOW!

My favorite is the color! All jammers are aloud to change color now, wow!!!!! I am super duper happy!

Is anybody else excited about this? I mean it is super cool! How have you guys been doing, I have been good, THANKSGIVING IS SOON! I am sorry, I am just really happy.

Guess what that I found out was cool, so I am studying astronomy, and there is a planet called 55 cancri e, it is 45 light years away and is made 1/3 out of diamond! WOW! It is a planet that is very close to its star, sun. And is 3,500 degrees! How cool is that! There is so many other cool planets!

Oh and somebody just wrote to me, I do not want to say any names in case she does not want any one knowing, but she wanted me to post this, it was on this website boggling facts, here it is, AWESOME CAT FACTS!

Most people don’t realize that cats make more popular pets than dogs. Did you know that there are more than 73 million domesticated cats in the United States and more than 500 million worldwide? Just in North America alone, almost one out of every three households keeps at least one cat as a pet.

Cats and humans have a long and close relationship, and cultures across the world have respected and revered cats for their mysterious nature and incredible hunting skills for thousands of years. Tales of cats and their seemingly-preternatural abilities are told in the tales of every nation.

The ancient Egyptians had a goddess who was part, and Mohammed, the founder of Islam, was so fond of felines that he would go without his cloak if a cat was sleeping on it. In Japanese folklore, cats are believed to be the keeper of human spirits. In the original story of Cinderella, the fairy godmother was a cat.

Maybe the cat-human interaction has been so successful because virtually everywhere that humans go, cats can go also – from city to countryside and from desert to jungle. Cats are found on every continent except for Antarctica, and they have been known to thrive on certain volcanic islands where even humans can’t live.

Cats have many fun facts. Here is an engaging infographic of 10 fascinating cat facts that you probably never knew:

Wood Pile!

Greetings, Jammers! It's time to make today great, so let's get on to it, shall we?

Today, in the Land of Jamaa, we have an all new item. Introducing: The Wood Pile! I definitely like this item. It is cute, and looks very Jamaasian. Be sure to buy one of these for 350 gems in Jam Mart Furniture today!

And now, it is time for the fantastic factual part of this post:

Our wonderful word of the day:

Efflorescence: Flowering or Blooming.

That would make Spring a season full of efflorescent plants!

Our fabulous fact of the day:

Venus is the only planet the rotates clockwise.

I wonder why... It's quite fascinating looking into these things!

Have a lovely day!

Rare Item Monday!

Greetings Jammers, welcome to another new day. Hopefully you're as excited about today's post as I am!

Being Monday, it only makes sense that there would be a Rare Item. What is it you ask? Introducing the Rare Long Bow! I have always loved the original long bow, so even though this item is a recolour, I still like it very much. I can also appreciate the fact that it is for gems, making it easily accessible to members - if only this one was a non-member item! Be sure to pick up this flamboyant article of clothing at Jam Mart Clothing today, while it is still around!

And now, it is time for the fabulous factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Dulcet: sweet and sugary

A perfect word to describe a sweet dessert!

Our fact of the day:

On an island called Mauritius Island, there is an illusion known as the Under Water Waterfalls! This amazing feat of nature is caused by the way the sand and silt run down the edge of the underwater cliffs.

The wonders of our world never cease to amaze! Here is a picture for all those interested:

Scorpion Tail Armour and Jammer Sundae #49

Greetings, Jammers. Welcome to a new post! Sorry about how late it is!


Today, we have a returning item sold in Epic Wonders! Welcome back the scorpion tail armour, which can be bought for 1500 gems! This item has a good design, but has never really been one of my favourite sets. Be sure to buy one of these if you like it!

This will be my first Jammer Sundae in a long time! It's so great to be back!

This week, I think it would be nice to see some dancing cats. Why cats? I have no idea.

A fabulous dance lesson from the master of dance himself:

This cat has mastered the "epic point":

"Catch me!":

Finally, the cat with all the right moves:

That's all for this week's Jammer Sundae! Which cat do you think won? I definitely have to say the flying "catch me" cat took the cake for me.

And meow, it is time for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Ailurophile: a cat lover

What is with me and cats today?

Why not top it all off with a fact about cats too?

Cats have been recorded to make about 100 different sounds. Dogs, on the other hand, have been recognized to make only around 10.

How interesting!

Hello Jammers!

Getting Back on Track and Jupiter Throne!

Greetings, again, Jammers!

This is my first proper post in a very long time, so let's keep the announcements short, shall we?

In case you haven't read the post below, I will be posting every other day for a while now!

To our loyal readers:

Yes, I realize this has been a long, and rather confusing period of time. Pageviews and comments are falling, and I am ever so grateful to those of you who still check in every once in a while!

To the Authors:

An email will be sent to you in the next 2-3 days discussing in more detail the extent of my plans. For now, here is what you should know:

1. I am currently attempting to contact Slidoo about blog management
2. I would like for there to be more proper posts. And a schedule that works for all of us!
3. I am hoping to hear some ideas from you about how to make the blog better.
4. I will not be quitting anytime soon, despite what I may have been letting on in prior discussions. I have decided it isn't quite my time yet.

Alright, and now, moving on to the actual post:

I believe the new item for today is the Jupiter Throne. This item can be bought for 900 (quite expensive!) gems in the new Astronomy Shop! I think it makes sense that the throne is for Jupiter, as this planet is often considered the king of the planets. Also, the whole item set itself isn't too "out of this world" and it is still believable that they are Animal Jam items! Be sure to buy this item, and look around at the cool new astrological items!

Oh goodness! My membership is expiring soon, and I probably will never renew in the future, which means I will likely be non-member forever. It's alright though, I still have all of you, and that is what keeps me on Animal Jam!

And now, join me for the factual part of this post:

Our word of the day:

Ameliorate: To make better.

What a beautiful word!

Our fact of the day:

The entire internet is stored and delivered using 540 billion trillion electrons. Altogether this weighs approximately the weight of a single strawberry!

How crazy! To think, all that information only weighs that much! I wonder how much this blog would weigh in contrast...

Have a great day!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Staying Strong!

Greetings Jammers, and loyal viewers of the Animal Jam Community Blog!

I have decided to take matters into my own hands, and discuss with all of you, my plans for how posting will be going.

Until I can get into contact with Ferret and Grace, I will be posting every other day from here on out. Why every other day? Well you see, I don't have the best immune system, and if I post every day, I found I was very tired more often, and became sick very often. Every other day, I will release a post, most likely covering what I missed on the "off-days''. I greatly apologize for this!

Because of this new system, posts will be released by me every:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday, and Sunday (can't miss out on the old Jammer Sundaes, now can we?)

I'll be looking forward to resuming posting this coming Friday!

A la prochaine!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Alrighty Then!

Greetings, Jammers! 

It has been a week since the blog's latest post, so I thought I'd kick it off with a bit of a review of what's been going on.

After what I like to call, "the roast ordeal", Annaliese P. uncovered some interesting information about dear old AJ offers. Be sure to read the post under this one if you haven't already.

That being said, it is also a good idea to move on and look into doing new things. During the week that I have spent away from here, I have been thinking about what to do for the blog. Rest assured, Ferret, Grace, and I will come up with something to keep the Animal Jam Community thriving.

I will be looking forward to seeing all of you again once the posting schedule has been finalized!

Feel free to contact me at arcticstarjamaa@gmail.com !

Who Aj-Offers is....

A scammer. On DeviantArt.
He was suspended and probably is taking out his rage. On us.
I have proof: http://tentacutey.deviantart.com/journal/AJ-OFFERS-IS-A-SCAMMER-553453103

Thanks Annaliese P/Morningglory17 for finding this and emailing us about it :)

Mldriver Quitting

Hello Everyone!

I recently have not been updating the blog. However, there is a reason for that. I have decided to quit Animal Jam and the AJC. 

Now, I already quit Animal Jam a long time ago. I haven't really told anyone, and I planned to. It just never happened.

I really loved writing posts for the AJC. Although, it quickly became redundant. 

"Hey Jammers. Here is the new item! I really love/dislike this item. Tell me what you think below!" 

I'm very grateful for the opportunity to become an author on the AJC.  I remember sitting in my car and checking my email to see an invitation to AJC. I was so happy!  

Arcticstar:

You are such a sweet person. Please know this. You've helped out so many jammers including me, Especially with den tips (which I desperately needed)! Thank you for filling in for me, I know it has been a daunting task. I have so much to thank you for, and I don't even know how to put it into words (see what I mean?) 

Grace and Ferret:

I haven't known you guys for long. You are both very talented and I hope you both continue with blogging. Thank you for everything you have done for the AJC and me.

I need to end this because it's sounding like a will.

I don't want this to turn into a big dramatic thing, and please don't ask me to stay. I have already made up my mind.

Thank you everyone for commenting and being supportive of my absences. 

See you in Jamaa..

A Wave of Calm, and My Thoughts

Greetings, Jammers, Arcticstar here!

Recent comments have instilled negative feelings between people, and I thought it was about time that I intervened.

It is true that the blog hasn't been at its best lately. Ferret wants to change that, and I greatly respect her for that.

To all those people that have commented against Ferret leaving, I greatly appreciate it. Sometimes we all have discouraging moments, and helping someone who is in that time is a great thing to do.

On the other hand, those of you who bashed Ferret in the post, I know I have no right to criticize, but I will say what I must. Having your own opinions is a great thing, it's part of what makes the world such a unique, free, and wonderful place! However, if that means you are going to hurt someone in the process, I strongly suggest you keep your thoughts to yourself.

I don't want it to sound as though I am shaming anyone. I am completely guilty of having blatant disregard for the emotions of other people, and I have hurt many people's feelings in the past because of it.

Honesty is wonderful, but hurting someone in the process is not respectable. Again, I realize I am in no authoritative position over people, and my word does not do much, but I would like to suggest you think. Calling people immature, inexperienced, and bad at what they do does not contribute in any way.

In the meantime, we need to figure out a plan about getting back on track!

Authors please see the new draft

It has to do with the new prize box.

Okay this is a last resort....

In a last try to save this blog, we are having a commenting contest
Rules:
No spam *metroleafs, I'm looking at you*
Put all your thoughts in one comment unless you come up with something new
First comment on each post wins an item from the prize box: AJcomunityprizebox
I will take results every SATURDAY and top 5 win prizes (top one gets 5 top 2 get 4 etc) I will edit with the prize box's inventory. The username is AJcommunityprizebox and anything that its animals are wearing and stuff in its den are prizes, both animals wear different stuff.
Every 30th of each month, I will add up what I have collected within the month and the winners choose ten small or five big prizes!
Edit: Authors don't count, sorry! It's because they can (but shouldn't) grab prizes and give them away randomly.
