Accounts can be DELETED! (Important)

(FOR THE IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT AJ ACCOUNTS, SCROLL TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS POST)

Hey Jammers! I know I've been really inconsistent with my posting, and I've gotta apologize about all of that. I have a lot of homework, and while I do have some free time I need to learn how to use it more effectively for stuff like blogging. I'll get used to all this soon, but for now it's Friday! That means I'll definitely be posting today (lol I already am) and over the weekendDuring that time I'll figure out a strategy to make my posting schedule less muddy.

Now, onto the news. Yesterday we got a rare double update– two update weeks in a row! This update follows what I'm guessing will be a "Night of the Phantoms tradition" where the phantoms vandalize the Jamaa Journal with their creepy goo.

See for yourself:



Being a double update, there isn't a lot of new stuff so a lot of the following pages are just filler. But there does seem to be a new item set!




No nonmember items yet, but from the picture in the Jamaa Journal I have a pretty good guess of which one will be. The gear-patterned rug is the most boring item so we can assume that it will be the only out of the set for all Jammers. Kind of a shame because the Steampunk Parlor is what I voted for. :(

All the rest of the Jamaa Journal is filler:





The phantoms remind me of tiny children who want attention. Maybe we should give them some candy instead of hoarding it all ourselves... :(

Here's a little glitch that happened shortly after the update. Everyone's animal name was changed to their username!




The way to go back to normal is by clicking your animal picture and closing it.

Before I go, I just learned something on the Daily Explorer. Apparently it's now possible to delete your accounts!



...And just so you know, NEVER click the "Disable Web account" button on the parent dashboard. That used to just temporarily lock your account, but now it completely deletes your entire account.

I learned that the hard way. I had my storage account disabled back when it just temporarily removed access, but today I checked and my storage was completely 100% deleted. Luckily, there wasn't anything so important on there that I'd wanna protect.

Yeesh... the more I think about it, the more I realize how much I dodged a bullet by forgetting to lock my main account the last time I logged on. :O

That's all for now. Keep your accounts safe and I'll answer any questions in the comments!

  1. That's odd that your account is gone because earlier I locked all my accounts nothing happened when i just logged on now.

    Maybe it was a different button or something? Since deleting your account shouldn't be so easy and come with no warning.

    I actually just checked daily explorer and I think it wasn't an update just a reminder because to delete your account you still have to email them.

    1. Talking about how to temporarily disable an account and then saying stuff about a permanently deleted account without transitioning from "disable" to "delete" is pretty confusing. My storage account is still permanently deleted/locked with no way to go back so I have no idea how that happened!

    2. Yeah, I agree, it's really confusing. Well sorry about your storage, that sucks that it's just disappeared.

      Delete
  2. I personally think that a temporarily disabled account is much better than a deleted account.

  3. Uhhh...I lock my account every time I log off. Ahhh! I can't have my account taken away again! A few months ago, someone stole it, and changed the parent email, and took all my rares! I am NEVER locking it again. Well, you HAVE to email AJHQ to get an account deleted. I've had 2 storages deleted on purpose.

    1. Yes. Inactivity can also cause a ban if the account is untouched for a long enough period of time. (sorry for the 3 year reply difference).

  8. Hey, I havent logged onto one of my accounts in a fairly long time and I dont know if ive forgotten the password or not. Ive tried multiple different passwords and ive even tried looking myself up on the 'search for a player' but i cant find myself. Why/would my account be deleted if I didnt do anything?

  9. Is there a possibility to get back your account when animal jam says its deleted??

    1. Most likely not. I think AJHQ has been sending out emails to notify you if your account is going to be deleted, because I got an email about one of my alt accounts. (I let it get deleted, I don't use alts anymore)

      Delete
  10. All my items were deleted off my account, and I don't know why. One day suspended, the next day, everything was gone. Animals and pets, clothing and den items all... RECYCLED. All 1,600 of those items. I had over 300,000 gems when I logged back on!.. AJ... I trusted you... I've been emailing AJHQ, but they do nothing about my problem! They just ignore me... Is there anything I can do? Has this ever happened before?

Heyyo! I love it when you guys comment. I'm always checking for more, so even if you comment on an older post I'll definitely see it and try to respond. :)

Before you comment, of course, here are some basic things to remember:

-Don't be mean on purpose.
-Keep the comments appropriate for all ages. This is an Animal Jam blog.
-No spam, please! That means no comments just saying "buddy me im animaljam123" or "hi", just add a little more than that.
-Rants/long comments totally encouraged! You don't have to apologize for a long comment, I love reading them xD

-*NEW!* Please be safe about the personal information you share here, and on the internet in general. Just like AJ's in-game safety guidelines, don't share your real name, photos of yourself, phone number, address, email, or age. Always turn to a trusted adult if you're unsure about something.

Pretty easy rules. Nothing to stress about. As long as you follow them, you can say whatever you want!

Thanks for reading! C(o.o)D

P.S. That's a bear emoticon up there. ^
