User blog:Wildgoldengem/How I got into Animal Jam

Hi! I've always wanted to share my "animal jam story"'  (oof sounds cringey ^^; I'll try to make this interesting but no promises xD)'''

The begining.

I first heard about this online game via a friend wayyy back  when I was in junior school, aged 8 or 9. My friend begged and begged me to make an account so I did. Well, I tried to. The site loaded up and I started to make my character, I clicked though and the globe on the blue background kept spinning and spinng. Bear in mind, I tried to make an account multiple times after the first time of the game not loading.

In hindsight, I should of waited considering that this was back in the beta stages of the game but oh well :(.

'''Lets jump ahead a few years. '''

I honestly can't rember when I tried to make an account again but it was a few months or maybe a year or two after my first attempt, I was still in junior school. I fianally made an account and started playing. I had items that would be considered betas and 'rares without the tag' today such as the tresure chest or potted plants.

After a hurrricane of scamming and that phase of those tiger hackers and loosing my first fox hat I was a good ol' veteran of animal jam.

(Just for the lols here's a list of all my old users-all accounts have been deleted by ajhq now, sadly) -and many, many more, by god was there alot.

The dark ages.

Then I forgot. My eternalicyclaws account was a rare one for a non-member. I had a neon bow, all the worn blanket colours, fox hats, what would be now highly wanted den betas, diamond items, swords, bow and arrows and many jammaliay items.

Like I said, I just fogot. I just stopped playing. All those items gone, poof, into the eather.

This was back in 2013/14.

ZOOM-Fast forward to now.

Now, in my last year of highschool,I started feeling oddly guilty or nostalgic, I couldn't pin point the feeling. I was constantly thining about the game and I caved and typed up the site. Unfortunately I can't remeber the details for any of my old accounts I, with a heavy weight on my chest, made a new account.

Not much has changed to be honest. I do remeber when items would be much cheaper in the trading world. Worns and fox hats cost a morgage but oh well. I've only been back a few weeks and I've got most my favourite items back- trading for a neon bow then was hard, now its like mincraft hardcore mod times ten. I'm just focusing on a non-member spiked wristband.

I recently had a chill, nostalgia-filled chat with a few jammers in game, Centiipede and a few others, (shout out to you guys!) got me inspired to write this. This is a much more condensed version of the story but I hope this was at the very least vaugley interesting or entertaining.
