I made this page just for fun. If you want, you can ask me any question about the blog, glitches, a little about myself, etc. But I wont answer or publish any questions that I think are too personal. Please leave all questions in the comment section to this page and follow the commenting rules set below. :)
Here are some quick facts about me:
My AJ username is DoomyPanda, and my main animal is my panda Countess Spookypanda, who is also my first animal! :D
I joined the world of Jamaa on February 17th, 2012. Yep. I remember the exact date. This blog was started the same year on June 17th.
I love the natural world and I try to protect the environment as much as I can. You should, too. Earth Day is everyday!
Come at me with a question! :D

Hey Doomy! I am brimad8. I went to your party once and I became your buddy. Then you deleted me and you won't add me back? Can you please tell me why?
ReplyDelete--brimad8--
Aah! I'm sorry if I deleted you! I don't have memory of deleting you though, I think it was a glitch. :(
DeleteAlso, after I deleted you when you sent me buddy requests, I forgot that I added Brimad8 at the party. I thought it was someone else (I have a buddy who has a vaguely similar name.)
I'll add you back, and I apologize.
What if your parent dashboard has an inactive e-mail, and you forgot the password?
DeleteI really wanna access my beta account again, but Idk if I can un-disable it without e-mailing aj.
An inactive email? Meaning a deleted email account? If the connected email is completely unavailable, then you won't be able to get the password or use the parent dashboard, to my understanding.
DeleteDo you know if you ever wrote the password down anywhere to remember it? Try to find it, if you do.
I'd say you should try to email AJ support with a different email, provide the information necessary and see what you get. Chances are that you won't get the response you're looking for, but AJHQ might try to verify some other way. I doubt it though.
Good luck, Turtle!
Hi Doomy! I love this blog and I have a question. What is your favorite den item? Thanks Doomy! Keep up the great work!
DeleteI think my favorite den item is the Cat Banner! It was in stores when I first joined AJ so I have a lot of nice memories involving it :)
DeleteThank you!
Why is your name Doomypanda i know i think i asked you this on AJ but i want other people to know
ReplyDeleteWell, on another site that got shut down, my name was DoomyDemon (I have no idea why I chose DoomyDemon). When my friend first showed me Animal Jam, I made my name DoomyPanda because I thought it sounded a little more unique than DoomyDemon, which was my original choice.
DeleteIt is okay. Thank you! I am not mad, just to let you know. Yes, glitches happen all the time. EPICLY EPIC blog! Hehe.
ReplyDelete--brimad8--
Hey Doomy (or someone else who knows this), i heard that worns and nm bat wings are coming out during Halloween and headdresses are coming out during Thanksgiving. i'm not sure if it's true though, do you know if its true? its ok if you don't, i could go on the "Ask Snowy" page on snowyclaw's blog and ask someone.
ReplyDeleteI think headdresses will come out during thanksgiving because they're thanksgiving items. I'm not sure about worns, but Scary Bat Wings maaaay come out... But I ain't sure.. :\
Deleteoh ok thanks :)
Deletehey doomypanda, just fyi, i suggest you change the link text from yellow to a darker color because it is very hard to read. i <3 your blog!
ReplyDeleteI don't know what should I say but I am now a nonmember, but I will renew it soon, just asking you why do you renew your membership monthly (1 month per 1 month)?
ReplyDeleteP.S: Thanks for being a great friend
P.P.S: Thanks also for putting my blog on your 'other blogs' page.
-Emmanuel777
I do it monthly because... Well, I don't know, really. I guess if I buy yearly and Animal Jam quits in a month (Let's hope not) I would have wasted some money.
DeleteSorry for this late reply!
P.S.: You're welcome! :D
P.P.S: You're welcome again. :)
Hiya Doomy! I was wondering, do you think AJHQ is slowly bringing beta back? I think it is, because in July they brought back beta clothes in Jam Mart Clothing, they are bringing beta plants back, and going back to the shaman stuff. Who knows would could come next?...
ReplyDeleteI don't think they'll really bring beta back, just maybe a few items and things.
DeleteI totally agree, beta is just a testing period, soon enough they'll revolve into a better and more jamtastic period.
Delete-Emmanuel777
Hiyo Doomy! Cool blog! I was wondering...do you think that people with blogs are more "popular"? I wonder why...
ReplyDeleteAre you referring to people with any blog, or just Animal Jam blogs?
DeleteIf you meant AJ blogs, then the answer, is not necessarily. With blogs that are "famous" the authors may be popular with friends or other jammers, either because of rare items (which sadly happens a lot), good writing style, or being very social. Being a social butterfly is a big part of that, which I'm not.
Have you won Sky High yet? What prizes didja get? =D
ReplyDelete-Alittlebrownbunny (AJ user)
Yes I have! ^^
DeleteI've won a bunch of ties, a head feather, two heart lockets, a clover blanket, and two turkey hats.
Turkey hats have always been one of my favorite items. :)
P.S. Sorry for the late reply!
Omg hi doomypanda! I finally found your blog!
Delete-catlover25
W O W, Doomy. You sure have a LOT of prizes. D: I only get the really stinky ones and then again, I rarely EVER win Sky High because my computer keeps freezing up. I just play hard mode adventures for rare, it's funner. :D - Creature SpiritChamp
DeleteHow are y'all even WINNING Sky High ;-;
DeleteWith practice it's gotten easier to play! Though it might be kind of impossible if you have a laggy computer >.<
DeleteHey Doomy, its CookiesXD! How do you get the voting gadget?
ReplyDeleteIf you click Layout, click "add gadget" and scroll down, you'll find something that says "Poll."
DeleteThats the voting gadget.
Thank You very much Doomy!
DeleteCOOKIES. :3 - Words of Wisdom courtesy to Creature SpiritChamp
DeleteHi Doomy! it is me MagicWitch906 could you please help how to make a HP (Halowwen Party)please
ReplyDeleteSure. :)
DeleteThanks so much!
DeleteHey Doomy, I've read about Beary,--I mean Berry the Koala, and I LOVE IT! I've heard and seen that you have'nt posted in 4 weeks. Why though? Are you extremely busy? Keep posting!
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, it keeps slipping from my mind, it's hard to remember to post. You may be seeing a new entry soon, though. ;)
DeleteHey Doomy! I missed you lately! How are you? Is everything goin' good around jamaa? Haha, anyways, we need to hang more on AJ together! As soon if I can get on more often :3
ReplyDelete~CookiesXD
It's all good, I'm just not usually playing AJ at the same time as you.
DeleteWe'll see each other again soon. ^^
Hi there! i love ur blog, but i was wondering, how did you get those fishies? I have a wordpress blog (Not an animal jam blog) and i really want some fishies!
ReplyDeleteThx, Lightning.
http://astrandofkeratin.wordpress.com/
Thanks!
DeleteI'm not sure how to put those fish on a wordpress blog, I have little to no experience with that type of blog.
On a blogger, you can get the fish by searching them in 'gadgets' in 'layout'
Thats all I know... :\
Hi! I was wondering if it was weird to make a story about a made-up species (my fursona)
ReplyDeleteElephantie
BTW, Just learned how to mke a url name thst takes you somewhere if you click it!
No, it's not at ALL weird! It's original. :)
DeleteThis might be a silly question, but do you have any pets? If you do, what are their names?
ReplyDeleteIn real life I have no pets. Does an apple tree count? :D
DeleteSure :)
DeleteWell, I haven't named my apple tree yet. ^^
DeleteHey Doomy, why are SO MANY people quitting AJ?
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's because rare items are coming out, or they think it isn't as fun as it used to be.
Deleteanother reason is, there is so many scammers out there and people keep getting scammed. but in the beta days, there was really no reason to scam. and what Doomy said is also true.
Delete-Sky12349
Honestly, the backround does look like sugar.
ReplyDeleteHow did you get the snow in one big clump instead of lots of picture boxes?
ReplyDeleteAnd how did you get those fishies on your blog?
Sorry, you know I'm new to this XD
I picked the snow from a bunch of backgrounds in the template designer.
DeleteI think you uploaded the picture of the dog for the background. Usually when you upload a background, it comes out 'tiled'
I don't know if there's a picture of a collie in the template designer.
I hope that was helpful. ^^
Yes, thanks :)
DeleteHow do you make it popular+new pages+ commentors+comment rules?
By the way: Expect a new Border Collie entry :)
Hey Doomy! It's me, Jammer31436! Anyways, can you send me a birthday present. It's past my birthday and I forgot to tell you! Im a person who forgets ALOT of things. Also, Thanks for the Flip Flops you sent me when you said hello! :D (p.s my birthday was like yesterday)
ReplyDeleteHi Doomy, I translated this page.. and probaly whole blog into German on accident.. How do I fix it?
ReplyDeleteYou click the button that says "show original" or you translate it back to english.
DeleteHow do you clear the comments on the comments page? Like refresh it all...
ReplyDeleteI don't exactly know how. :(
DeleteMaybe try web-searching that?
Hello Doomy! I just wanted to ask, what is your favorite book/series? Mine is Warriors by Erin Hunter :)
ReplyDeleteRight now I don't really have a favorite book or series, but my favorites last summer were Everlost, Everwild, and Everfound.
DeleteThanks for asking. ^_^
Hi Doomy! Well, I read your blog, "Berry the Koala", and in one post, there was BUNCH of gecko plushies! I wonder how did you get all of them, if the code works only one time per account. Did you traded for them?
ReplyDeleteI did trade for them. ^^
DeletePeople offered me geckos in trades which I accepted, they built up a lot over time.
Wow lucky :)
DeleteDoomy how did you get the orange gecko plushie a
ReplyDeletend how many do you have?
You can get an orange gecko plushie the same way you get a regular green one. You type in the code GECKO. It's easy, but there is really only a 20% chance that you will get an orange one. That is what makes them rare.
DeleteAnd to answer your other question, I got my own orange gecko over the summer in a trade. Someone asked "what for your [item I forget]?"and I traded it to them for the gecko plushie.
Oh, and I have only one orange gecko plushie.
DeleteHow do you delete/refresh an entire page of comments? Like how Snowyclaw "refreshes/clears" her comment (ask snowy) page?
ReplyDelete-QueenDragon<3
I think a while ago someone asked the same question. Since then, I've done a bit of looking on the interwebs and found… nothing useful. I have no idea how.
DeleteMy advice is to ask Snowyclaw how she does it.
^^;
i need a buddy i only have two spots left nobody will get on with me
DeleteHi DoomyPanda! Long time no see! I was wondering why you have not been on lately. Anyway, I was going to ask if we could have a little catch-up chat. Does Sunday 4:00 central time work? Thanks, miss you!
ReplyDelete~catlover25
(Sorry for the late response)
DeleteSorry that I couldn't come on sunday. D: I had things to do.
I'll try to be online every day from today (Tuesday April 16th) to next monday.
What's your favorite color?
ReplyDeleteMy favorite colors are green and cobalt blue. :)
DeleteCool! I like green a lot too :3
DeleteHi Doomy!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if you know how to beat the hard level on Pest Control. My little brother and I have been trying to figure it out for the past hour and still haven't figured it out!
Any information you have would be great to know.
Thanks!
Sorry RainbowRider, I tried playing it on the hard level and it was really confusing. I don't have any good advice. :(
DeleteMaybe ask one of your friends. They might know some good tips and strategies.
Good luck beating the level!
I beat all the levels. You just really need about 100 plants/animals.
DeleteHi Doomy, I need help with my den. What do you suggest? Should I keep every color similar to each other? Or should it be color-crazy? Should it be plant related? Or should it be humanishy? Please help!
ReplyDeleteIt's your choice, really, but I would say keep the colors similar. It looks more appealing to the eye with a set color scheme. I made a den that was earth day themed; with green and blue and in-theme items, and I got a ton of complements. ^_^ If you keep it matching, I think you'll get tons, too.
DeleteGood luck with your den!
Hey Doomy, I have a random question for you. :)
ReplyDeleteWhat is your favorite game to play on Animal Jam? Why?
My favorite game on AJ is Pill Bugs. I'm not sure why, but I think it's just really fun. Even still after I beat all of the levels. ^_^ I think the reason is that it has just the right amount of difficulty for an AJ game, but it's not impossible to beat. :)
DeleteDear Doomypanda:
ReplyDeleteIs there an age limit to joining your blog, as in 13+? Plus, can you PLEEEEAASE put more Berry the Koala entries?? -113457
There isn't an age restriction for following. This blog was made for kids who play Animal Jam. There are a lot of kids as young as five on the game, and I only post appropriate things relating to AJ. :)
DeleteHowever, there IS an age limit for making a Google account (13+) but I think you can follow without one.
Thanks for asking!
There's an AGE LIMIT for creating a GOOGLE ACCOUNT? Oops...
DeleteOops indeed. I got mine when I was fiveish. No harm done, it let meh in.
Deleteplease can i have your ACCOUNT EVERY MORNING?! I WANT THE ONE WITH MEMBERSHIP PLEASE!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI <3 MEMBERSHIP ACCOUNTS! <3 STANDS FOR LOVE
First off, all of my accounts are nonmember. And even though my icon is my panda with the membership name tag, if you look for yourself you can see that DoomyPanda is nonmember.
DeleteSecondly, what you're asking me is against the rules. I don't even know you.
Hello Doomy! Long time, no see! Anyway, could you take a look at my den and give me some tips? I can't make up my mind. ^L^ Thank you for taking your time to read this. Keep blogging!
ReplyDeleteHey Doomy! I like your blog and really want to be your buddy! plz add me (Sky12349) :D thx
ReplyDeletep.s. srry if my list is full, its like that a lot :P thx! and I try to keep my list to at least 95 buddies so more people can add me :D

Hi! I was thinking since you don't do monthly featured buddies (BOTM) I was wondering if you could do monthly featured dens? Just an idea ;D

Out of all the animals of Jamaa, what is your most favorite?
ReplyDelete( I think I already know what it is XD )
-Gogreen16
Like me, there is one room in Jamaa I love to hang out in when Im bored: The Art Studio! The music in there is my most favorite!
ReplyDeleteIf you do the same like me, what is your favorite room?
-Gogreen16
What are your thoughts on returning betas?
ReplyDeletewhat is your username on animal jam?
ReplyDeleteHey Doomy! :3
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen you for a while and I was wondering if we could meet up sometime? I will be available on Monday at 4:30-5:15 (usual dinner time, but I may have a late/early dinner) then after I finish eating, I come on from 6:00-6:45 (CDT). It's mostly like that for the rest of the week, except on Wednesdays and Thursdays because on Wednesdays I have my violin lesson from 4-4:30 and it takes a bit to get home, and on Thursdays I have my Chinese lesson from 4:30-5:30. I hope we can meet up sometime! c:
.:Catlover25:. (I also have another nickname on another website: http://www.moshimonsters.com/home. It's Cakez, but you can call me anything you'd like. :3) (I just realized I talk a lot... XD)
How did you create your blog header? I've been trying to use differents like that in fun colors, with a transparent background and picture next to the title.
ReplyDeleteWhat I normally do is take an all-white background, make it transparent in photoshop using the Magic Eraser, add text in photoshop, and on another image editing website add the image in.
DeleteThanks! I'll have to do that for my blog. I only have photoshop on out old desktop, so it'll be slow and challenging. ^_^
DeleteHello, dis is Cat. :3
ReplyDeleteANYWAYS, love love love your blog. Keep blogging!
Also, I decorated my den for a role-play, and was wondering if you would like to help me sort it all out and help advertise maybe? It's a kingdom role-play. If you can't, it doesn't matter, don't worry, I'll get it sorted out myself. :3
Peace!

Hi Doomy,
ReplyDeleteI own the website animaljamworld.com and I was wondering if you might interested in becoming an author on my site? The site has grown quite a bit recently so I'm looking for another author to help me out with some of the posting.
Let me know if this is something you might be interested in. I'd be willing to pay you monthly for your contributions to the website. Please email me at animaljamworldcom@gmail.com if you're interested and I can give you more details. I look forward to hearing from you! :)
-AntAnimal
How long does it take you to write a post? (averagely)
ReplyDeleteYou seem like a really good writer, unlike myself, and I thought I'd ask if it isn't too much trouble.
>>fang<<
Thanks so much! And to answer your question; on Berry the Koala or AJ Stream? On this blog, around 15 minutes when I don't have much time, and on a weekend with longer posts it takes around 15-20 minutes. On Berry the Koala, on a normal day it takes 20 minutes.
DeleteThanks for asking! :')
I need help, how can I stay on the right track? I always start something but never finish, I need some advice for this problem. ~waterwavesatyou
ReplyDeleteI think that if what you want to do is something you HAVE to do, such as a school project, you should assign a time to work on it and stick to it. If it's something less tight, like a short story to write in your free time, I think I can help. I used to have ideas that would stick around all day but once I wrote them down it seemed crude or I got embarrassed. When an idea first comes out, it doesn't ever look amazing. You need to elaborate on it so it can reach full potential! So you shouldn't be so perfectionist about it.
DeleteThanks for asking!
Well because I am bored I will ask some random AJ questions
ReplyDelete1. What is your favorite den?
2. What is your favorite animal in animal jam?(besides pandas)
3. what is your favorite clothing item?
4. What is your favorite den item?
5. What is your favorite adventure?
6.what are your vies on diamonds?
That is a random AJ questionnaire. I felt like posting it.
(btw this is elizabeth orr/CARROT80948 not A01315)
1. Just a small house den c:
Delete2. I really like crocodiles!
3. Old Hood (the ones you get in Shiveer)
4. Globes
5. Meet Cosmo is pretty cool
6. I really dislike diamonds because first of all, the people who spent money on animal gift cards can now just get the animals without actual money for a few virtual diamonds. Secondly, it made a bunch of items unrare so now there are a limited number of things people want to trade.
Thanks for asking!
hi doomy how many dens do you have??
ReplyDeleteJust one :)
DeleteLol just asking are you from England? AKA Britain I am :) And also do you play tfm if yes then what is your user and can you friend me? I am Soipet
ReplyDeleteNah, America. And no, I don't play Transformice, sorry. ^_^
Deletehow do you join play wild beta? this is new to me.
ReplyDeleteDear Doomypanda, (Too cheesy?) WATEVA! Well recently on youtube, there is this thing called play wild beta? They said its not on a computer, but i cant figure out where else! If you know about it, or play it could you please tell me? Okay thanks, AND 1 more thing, if you have enough room on ur buddy list, could you plz add me? My username is Abbyxoxo1 Thank you for responding! (If you do...) I also wanna join play wild beta so yeah. ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteI have a post here including a video (that's not mine) about Play Wild, the unreleased AJ app for android that's currently in development. Most of the information your looking for will be there. :)
Deletedo you know how to get a spring bunny :)
ReplyDeleteA gift card at GameStop, Target, or Walmart. :D
DeleteЩр тщ! Шэь ыегсл шт Кгыышфт!
ReplyDeletewhat is waffle cone display worth i have no idea and i really want one for my treat shop in AJ (username: gabistorm)
ReplyDeleteAccording to the AJ Wiki, Waffle Cone Displays last came out on August 7th, 2014. Any items from around that time would make a fair trade, I think.
DeleteHi Doomy! im a big fan of your page but I don't have free chat. And I cant say easy basic words. The email I put on AJ is my grandmas. It was before I got my email. Can you help? Any Advise?
ReplyDeleteThanks! Have you set up a parent dashboard yet? If not I think you should, that way you'll have access to changing your chat settings. If you already have your Dashboard set up and the issue is that you forgot your Dashboard password, I think you can change it with a link that can be sent to your grandma's email.
DeleteIf you haven't already, you should talk to your grandma so she can help you because a lot of things involving getting free chat involve checking email.
OR I think if you get a membership you can get free chat. But just so you know, only people who've had membership in the past or are members can have REAL free chat. Anyone can have restricted chat and type words as long as the filter deems them safe.
I hope you figure things out! :)
can this be on computers? I think I didn't spell that right XD
ReplyDeleteIf you're talking about Play Wild, yes, but only with a special program called BlueStacks. If you want to play it you should probably ask someone for help. :)
DeleteHeya Doomy! I was wondering about the Official Animal Jam Guide Book and the code inside it. I tried to do it but it said it was not right. Do you know why?
ReplyDeleteBtw, its lostfairy again, lolz! ;)
DeleteHey lostfairy! :D
DeleteI ran into that same problem! I'm not sure, but I think maybe it was a mistake with the book. The code is TWELVE.
I don't think it would expire, given that the book has been buyable for a year or two. I hope I helped!
Ya! I counted 11 but I hear people say its 12. I tried tons of times, lol! XD And yes you helped! :D -lostfairy
DeleteHey doomy, if you were a member, what would be the first thing you'd do? I did pet shop on my hamters ;)
ReplyDeleteSorry, I'm not Doomy! But I feel bad that this comment is not getting answered! I got membership this Christmas and the first thing I did was send a gift to my friend! :D Your hamsters must be happy. :D -lostfairy
DeleteSorry, I've been neglecting this page way too much LOL. I prefer being nonmember, but if I got a membership the first thing I would do is get a treehouse den. ^_^
DeleteReally? You prefer being non-member??? I would think most people like memberships! I guess it kinda makes sense... But I like memberships cuz I love writing and sending letters, buying any clothes, doing fun adventures with friends, and getting cool, fun animals! That's how I see it. :) But I could totally see it from your view too. ;) -lostfairy
DeleteHow (do you think) is the easiest way to get a skirt or tutu? LOL, I really want one... :P -Skirtless in Jamaa
ReplyDeleteI don't know a lot about items in terms of whats in demand, so I don't know for sure. However, I think trading would be best and you'd get a skirt quickly because I don't believe they're very valued right now. Hopefully you'll no longer be skirtless in Jamaa!
DeleteLOL, thanks! I feel like people are making them rare... :/ It kinda stinks that people make them 'big' when they aren't. -lostfairy (lol, I was Skirtless in Jamaa XD)
DeleteWhen are you gonna do BOTM and why do you not like my comments about how to get tutus? -lostfairy
ReplyDeleteSorry! I only learned today that new comments won't appear on a page if there are already too many. I've been meaning to answer them!
DeleteOh, pshhhh! That's fine! :D I didn't mean to sound rude, so sorry about that. BTW, awesome blog! -lostfairy
DeleteHey Doomy! 2 Questions....... Do You Like Being A Non-Member Or Member? Whats Your Favorite Member And Non-Member Animal?
ReplyDeleteJust Asking! :3
Thanks for asking! I prefer being a nonmember just because it's simpler. My favorite member animal is probably a lion or a snow leopard, and my favorite nonmember animal is a panda. ^_^
DeleteOh Cool! I Like Being A Non Member Too! My Favorite Member Animal Is The Goat And My Favorite Non Member Animal Is A Wolf! :D
DeleteHey! Here's a few words from a fellow panda,(me)
ReplyDeleteWhat's your favorite glitch?
How often are you on Aj?
Where did you get inspiration for this blog?
Thx! ����☘️�� I love nature too!
Greetings, fellow panda!!! :D
Delete1. My favorite glitch, which sadly no longer works, was the Temple of Zios skyway glitch. I loved going up on top of the big elephant statue. I'd get an eagle to relive that glitch, but sadly, I am nonmember.
2. I love AJ but school gets in the way a lot. I'm not online as often as I'd like to be, maybe twice a week for about ten minutes. Sustained gameplay would be on the weekend for about 20 minutes maximum. I'd like to be online more often than that.
3. I got inspiration for this blog from the big collection of blogs that were popular in 2012. Before YouTube videos became the main outlet for Animal Jam news, Animal Jam blogs took the lead. There were thousands!!! A few bloggers were highly regarded that not a lot of people remember: LoveLost, Goldfishypuppy, Trickertreee, pizzadrop, to name a few. They've all stopped now. But my main inspiration for this blog was my friend who made their own AJ blog!
Thanks for asking these good questions! It's cool that you love nature, too. Nature is cool! ;D
Hello Doomy! (That felt like a cheese ball..) Its me minigirl121! I entered in the masterpiece contest.. And I got some questions. 1. How many animals do you have in AJ? (Animal Jam if you don't know) 2. How many years have you been blogging and playing Animal Jam? 3. Would it be fine if I post something funny on the blog? Its not related to questions though. 4. How many masterpieces have you made? Yep! That's all! And I like nature, too. How the tree's flowers bloom in the spring.. The colorful leafs in the fall.. And I do like to climb tree. Also if you like art, Well.. I already like!! So... Cya in another comment. -minigirl121 :3
ReplyDelete1. I have just two that are accessible, but around five that are in storage. I'm a nonmember. :)
Delete2. I have played AJ for a little over 5 years, and I have been working on this blog for a little less than 5 years.
3. Totally fine!!! :D
4. I have made a grand total of 2 Masterpieces. The first one is of a panda in a forest, and the second is a weird one my brother let me make on his account. XD
Nature is pretty dang cool. It's pretty much everywhere! If you think about it, I'm nature, you're nature... even this computer is nature, albeit very processed! The chips inside are made of semi-precious earth metals, like emerald and ruby.
Hey doomy, i don't think you remember me but i buddied you when you were new. You must have unbuddied me, because your not on my list. Can ya buddy me again? Thanks! I love your blog because its so pretty.
ReplyDeleteP.S I like doritos :3
-Foxpie24, your old buddy you don't remember. ;)
I'm sorry, you're right that I don't clearly remember you. ^^; but your username is rather familiar, so we can talk if you'd like :)
DeleteThank you so much!!! It's comments like these that keep me around :')
ReplyDeleteThe AJ blogging community has definitely shrunk over the years, but a few active blogs do remain. You should check out Rainbow000Pegasus' blog (linked on my left sidebar under 'More Blogs'). She updates almost every day!
I love Animal Jam too much to even think about quitting. I'm not addicted, but something about the game just feels like home =)
Once again, thanks so much for commenting!
I can totally help you! I ran into this problem when I first started my blog, and it was very easy to fix.

Let me know if this works. Also, your blog looks amazing so far! Could I add it to Animal Jam Stream's blogroll? :)
I LOVE UR BLOG!! NEVER STOP POSTING
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I love blogging so much, and I love commenters like you :') thank you for keeping this community so positive!
DeleteHey Difficult!! :D
ReplyDeleteDo you mean the Medical Center? I know the Medical Center was a room in beta testing, but not unreleased. Though I do know about a bunch of unreleased rooms like Sandy Shores. Thanks for the posting idea!
Hi doomy! I just found you blog, and I LOVE it! It's so so inspiring that you've kept this up for 8 years! I just have a question about how you added your poll onto your sidebar in your home page? Would you mind explaining how you did it to me? I recently just started an AJ blog myself 😁: https://animaljaminfox.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteThank you so so much if you can help me!
YAY a new commenter/blogger!!! Thank you so much and welcome to Animal Jam Stream!!! :D
DeleteAh... polls. Blogger used to have their own poll widget, but they removed it for no reason so making them is harder now. This is how I put polls on my blog:
1. Go to poll-maker.com
2. Put in your question and answers
3. Make sure the poll looks how you want to, using the Themes and Settings tabs
4. When you're done, click Create Poll
5. Next, click Embed
6. Copy the code
7. Go back to Blogger
8. Click Layout
9. Click '+ Add a Gadget'
10. Select the HTML/Javascript gadget
11. Paste your poll's code into the box and click save!
Hope that helped :)
Your blog looks great so far!
Thanks so much! It worked; that was so helpful!
DeleteHiiiiii. Ok I'm going to have this try to be the last question I ask you: How did you get the 2 sidebars? I only have one, and all of the other themes only have one as well :)
ReplyDeleteYou can definitely get two sidebars! Just go to Theme, click Customize, then Layout, and you can click the little image of a blog page with two sidebars :)
DeleteHey! This is just a blogging in general question (sorry I keep loading 'em on to you) How did you get your blog so popular? And how did you do it?
ReplyDeleteIt's very hard to get a lot of people to read a blog! I owe a lot of my blog's views to the days when there were some AJ blogs (that were very very popular, much more popular than AJ Stream is) who would give shout-outs to newer blogs. I got a huge boost from the Animal Jam Flash a few days after I made AJ Stream because LoveLost/Mel was kind enough to feature it in a post.
DeleteNowadays, though, I think a lot of my blog's pageviews come from people who find it in Google results from searching for something Animal Jam related that's new and exciting, or something they're confused about or want more information about.
For example, my most popular posts are as follows:
"Play Wild – BETA!" -- tons of people were excited about AJPW being released, and the word 'beta' gets people in the AJ community excited, so tons of people were looking up info on it and happened to find my blog that way.
"Animal Jam Feral" --- Similar case! When Feral was first announced, it was very vague, so lots of people were researching it to find info on it.
"What Spiked Collars are REALLY Worth" --- different case. This is a hot topic in the animal jam community and has been for a long time, so of course lots of people want info about this and different opinions.
"Wacky Item, Zany Item, Silly Item" -- another case! One year for April fools, three mystery items were released, so after that passed everyone was trying to figure out what the three mystery items look like, so my post became a helpful reference for some people.
So I guess a lot of people find my blog because I make some posts that try to clarify and give info about different things that people might not have all the info on, if that makes sense.
I guess in general, posts that might have the most details will be the ones that help get viewers to your blog. But admittedly, getting viewers takes a very long time, so it's most important that blogging is something fun for you!
Ok, I can't thank you enough! All of these tips are so so helpful!
DeleteAnyways, I came here because I saw this really cool bird today, but I didn't know what it was. I'm awful at classification, and the only other person in my family that actually can tell a woodpecker and a sparrow apart was busy.
ReplyDeleteI assume you know a lot about nature, so hopefully you know what species this bird is :D
Description: It has dark, jade-greenish feathers on its head (around Hex #053321), but around its eye there are black feathers. Its body and wings are all brown (around Hex #2B1800).
Thanks if you reply! It's also the first time I've seen a bird like this haha. I actually looked at it, and my first thought was "peacock." (What was I thinking).
~Wildflower75
I can't believe I'm just seeing this comment now!! So sorry for the wait >.<
DeleteThat sounds like a really cool bird! Were they bigger or smaller? I'm wondering if they might have been a green heron, or perhaps a kingfisher? I guess it also matters where you saw this bird-- were they in a tree, were they on the ground, or were they in or near water?
Hey Doomy! I'm actually not sure if I have asked this question before, but whatever. :)
ReplyDeleteHow did you get your blog so popular? Did you like advertise in AJ or go to someone elses blog or something?
Or was it just time?
Confuzzled,
~popcorn
Hi Popcorn! C:
DeleteI answered this more in depth a couple comments up-- but to add on to that, I think a lot of it has to do with time and persistence, even if there aren't many views or comments for a long time. If you keep on posting every so often about things that are interesting to you, as well as interesting or helpful to other people, and let your buddies know, over time more and more people will view it. It just takes a lot of patience nowadays
I know it's really hard nowadays for an AJ blog to get noticed, but for now I'd recommend that you let your buddies know about your blog, and advertise in AJ (if you can manage with the chat filter) especially if you're doing a contest!
If you're the process of blogging is what's fun for you, you could just try to write for the audience you know you already have, even if it's small. If your biggest goal is to reach more people faster, I'd recommend starting a YouTube channel! That is a much faster, easier way to get more interaction. I personally don't do it because I think the AJ side of YouTube is way too full of negativity and clickbait, but if you were interested in trying it, I'm sure you could be a little ray of positivity there :)
(Not to discourage you from blogging, of course!)
Great, thank you! This really helped, and I will see about the YouTube thing. Although it seems like it would be interesting and fun, I'm just not sure about how much "better" it is then blogging. I feel like for blogging, you can really explain things a lot better, then just saying them out loud.
DeleteUgh, I just have to keep telling myself patience is key, because I seem to really struggle with that. xD
And telling my buddies is a good idea! I'm surprised I didn't think of that! Thank you!
Hi Doomy!
ReplyDeleteWow I post too many questions on here xD
For TODAY's question, I was wondering how you got the little captions under pictures. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think in some of your posts you have a lot smaller text!
I've been trying to play around with it myself, but I can't seem to find a way to make the text smaller. I can only make it bigger, with the "header" and "sub-headings" options on the side of the post :l
~popcorn
P.S. Happy New Years! Man, 2021 can't come fast enough XP
Happy New Years, Popcorn! :3
DeleteI do have posts with smaller text-- I also have a lot of older posts that only use bigger text and they will forever mildly annoy me xD
Ok, so there are two ways to do this!
Method 1: Add an image to a post as usual. Then, click that image. You should see a little symbol that looks like an A with an underline. Click that to add your caption directly to your image!
Method 2 (less straight-forward, but good to know anyway): If you want to make your text smaller in a post, INSTEAD of clicking the dropdown menu under "Normal" to change the size, click the dropdown menu under the symbol that looks like a big T next to a smaller T. This is how to change the font size! It's right next to the "Normal" button you've been using.
Thanks for asking!! I'm always happy to answer Blogger questions-- too many tutorials already on the internet are outdated ^^;
Ugh, I totally agree. Every time I try to search a tutorial on how to do these kinds of things, they'll date back to something like 2016.
DeleteBut thank you so much! This resource is so amazing, and I'm so happy that you have so much knowledge about blogger!! (Unlike me in the corner xD)
Glad it helped! I'd say I at least half-understand how to use Blogger, especially with layout and HTML stuff xD
DeleteHey Doomy! Popcorn back, once again! This may seem like a pretty weird question but I've been curious about it:
ReplyDeleteWhat's the largest amount comments you have gotten on a post? And which post was it?
Thanks Doomy!
Ah that's easy-- my post about Play Wild when it was first being released in beta testing! That one has a whopping 131 comments. It didn't have much info, but people were really excited about the idea of re-living beta testing by getting to participate in the beta period of AJPW. AJPW is certainly a lot more chaotic now then it was then!
Deletehttps://animaljamstream.blogspot.com/2015/01/play-wild-beta.html
Great thank you! And feel free to delete some of my 20 bajillion comments too! (Unless you feel they would be helpful for future jammers that read them)
DeleteHey Doomy! It’s popcorn uwu (just commenting on a different account) Anyways I had a kind of weird, deep question that you completely don’t have to answer! I was just curious:
ReplyDeleteSo you’ve stated in posts/comments before that you’re a second year in college (wow I would literally LOVE to go to college) and that you’re studying environmental engineering? I might be wrong, correct me if I am XP Anyways, the point of all that being: once you’re finished with college, do you think that you’ll continue to post/update this blog? I mean, I completely understand if you wouldn’t; once education is behind you, you’ve basically started a whole new chapter of your life.
But anyways, I was just thinking :) Sorry if this is a very weird/unpredictable/personal question xd
Hi!! Yes I am in my second year of college C:
DeleteI'm majoring in environmental studies, so that's like a combination of the scientific and social justice aspects of learning about the environment. Also gonna study animation too... probably starting next year!
But to answer your question, most likely yes– I will continue posting! Honestly, I can't imagine just up and leaving this blog. Even though it might be a small thing to most people, writing for AJ Stream has been an important and positive part of my life for so many years. The lighthearted joy and community here has helped me get through a lot of difficult times, including this time we're in right now. It's been a comforting thing to have as a common thread through much of my life ^^
Along with AJ, I have a ton of different interests I want to explore more in the future, but I haven't really felt the need to sacrifice one for the other, y'know? It's never felt to me like the right time to stop posting here, and at this moment I don't really know what that point would feel like, so I'll keep going. Even if it is a silly hobby C:
And no worries about asking any kind of question! I actually really appreciate questions like these and enjoy answering them <3
Oh wow that's INCREDIBLE. And animation?! That's so cool!
DeleteI can definitely relate. It's nice having a place where you can just dump your thoughts (whether it's about real life or not; in this case, not)!
But yay! I'm so glad you'll continue to post, this blog is such a great recourse and inspiration to not only me, but so many others! As long as you post, I'll read X)
~popcorn
Yay! That's so kind of you :')
DeleteAnd thanks for teaching me a new word– I don't think I've heard the word "recourse" til now X)
Hey Doomy! Whadaya know, popcorn's got another question!
ReplyDeleteActually, you may have answered this question in a past comment on this page... hmm. Ugh, I don't know, but if yes then maybe the answer has changed XP
Anyways, here it is: how long (averagely) does it take you to write a blog post for the AJ Stream? Your posts are always so well though out and written, I was just curious :')
~popcorn
Aw, thank you! I feel the same way about your posts! You always have a great structure that's so fun to read :D
DeleteTo answer your question... it takes a lot longer than I think it should xD
I'm a slow writer and I get distracted easily, so I'd from start to finish... at least an hour and a half. I know-- it's long! That's why I wanna start writing shorter, more frequent posts
That's sweet, thank you! I try uwu
DeletePfft I can completely relate, I'll usually be working on a post, a page, and a layout change at the same time, which really doesn't help the duration of my "blogging time" I try to set out of each day -_-
How do you put stuff in the side? This is what I mean: You have all your pages, and even text on the left hand side of your blog, but there's no 'left sidebar' in the layout column, so how do you do that?
ReplyDelete~Dogo
P.S. I love it when you go to a post that hasn't existed or gotten deleted? Well, I love how yours says 'Don't get washed downstream! This page either never existed, was deleted, or grew flippers and swam away!' I got myself one too :) It says 'Sorry! This page either never existed, got deleted, or got chomped for lunch by me >:)'
Hey Dogo! Follow these steps to add another sidebar to your blog:
Delete1. Go to your Blogger dashboard, and click 'Theme'
2. Then, click the orange 'Customize' button
3. Now that you're in the theme customizer, scroll down a little on the left sidebar of editing options until you see a dropdown menu called 'Layout'
4. Click 'Layout', choose the Body Layout that has two sidebars (it's the fifth option), and then click the little 'Save' button in the bottom right corner of the page. Now you have two sidebars to add things to!
I hope that helped! Let me know if you have any other editing troubles.
And thank you!! I love that message you came up with X) it makes me happy that mine could inspire you! Hehe
Hai Doomy! Haha, I'm actually so sorry for the like 11 comments on this page by me xd
ReplyDeleteAAAAAnyways, you've most likely read my Daily Interview posts, correct? (Wait I just checked, you commented on my previous one X) And with you being probably the only blogger from the "Early Age" (what I call the OG AJ blogging stage p:) that's actually still active, I thought you'd be perfect for this interview!
Before I do ask the questions, quick disclaimer: like I tell everyone, this is completely optional and is only for fun! If you choose not to answer any questions, that's 100% OK and understandable. Your answers are only for my personal interest, and are only ever used in the posts on my blog :)
Although usually not many people say no, I always feel the need to ask, just in case :P
AGH I've already talked too much; anyways, below are the questions, if you don't mind answering!
1. When did you first join the blogging community?
2. What inspired you to start blogging?
3. If you could make any changes to AJC, what would they be?
4. What are your favorite and least favorite parts about AJC?
5. Is there anyone you used/currently look up to?
6. Finally, what is your favorite blog post that you've posted?
Also, sorry if you've ever answered these in posts/pages! I try to keep the questions the same so I can compare the different responses I get! I absolutely love hearing all of the inspirations, stories, and memories that all of the past memories share!
Haha, this turned out to be a much longer comment than anticipated o.O
~popcorn ⊂(´・ω・｀⊂)
Gah I just realized I said ", and memories that all of the past MEMORIES share!" (I meant jammers xD)
DeleteYAY I GET TO BE ON YOUR BLOG X)
Delete1. I started my blog on June 17, 2012! I think it was the day before my last day of school that year and I was super excited. I remember being surprised that the URL animaljamstream was available because there were just so many blogs named in a similar way, like "animaljam[random noun]", and there were more seemingly being made every day, so I really wanted to grab animaljamstream as quick as I could.
2. What inspired me to start AJ blogging was the then-huge community of Animal Jam blogs at the time that was introduced to me by my friend furryfruit73 (who also introduced me to AJ in the first place)! I really loved reading blogs like the Animal Jam Flash, and at one point, furryfruit73 showed me their own AJ blog they made and it totally inspired the idea to start my own. That blog isn't up anymore and furryfruit73 doesn't play AJ very often anymore, but I'm grateful for them!
3. Oooooh boy, if I had infinite power I'd make quite a few changes! But I think the most important change is a simple one: more communication from WildWorks about their plans for their games, and more community feedback being taken seriously and implemented into the game. The unexplained name-switch to AJ Classic, alongside the unexplained reduction in updates has given me and many others a bad feeling because AJHQ hid their reasoning behind such a dramatic re-branding and re-structuring. More communication would reduce that uneasiness, no matter the WHY involved.
And for that second piece, I see so many awesome ideas for AJC that its user base has come up with and shared with AJHQ on social media or the Daily Explorer. While AJHQ comes across as being really receptive and encouraging of user-generated ideas, the way AJC has been managed in recent years makes it feel like it's just for show and those ideas aren't actually going anywhere. So yeah– more feedback from the community being considered!
4. My favorite parts of AJC? Whew, I love so much of the game. What might be one of the most important things to me is the original art style and design of the lands. So much effort and creativity went into crafting such a beautiful game. The other most important thing to me is the role of nature and animals-- even though that's been neglected by AJHQ in more recent times, it's the core of the game for me.
My least favorite part is probably the over-emphasis on items and the fact that trading has become so hard and boring because there are just a few items that control a lot of the game. Trading becoming mostly centered around a singular item (spikes) instead of the wider pool of unique and creative items that the trading economy once was is a problem, in my opinion.
5. I so respect everyone who ever put or continues to put effort into their AJ blogs-- I know from experience that it can be tough to keep something regularly updated with fun stuff, and the joy and dedication I've seen from others has always been inspiring. A few of the many people who have inspired me are snowyclaw (who ran Animal Jam Spirit), Difficult (who ran the amazing Animal Jam Timber), q1zx (who ran The Animal Jam Lake Blog and is now Alukian on YouTube!), Rainbow000Pegasus (who posts nearly daily on rainbow000pegasus.wordpress.com!!), and honestly, I've been so impressed and inspired by the work you've done with The Animal Jam Daily, Popcorn! :')
6. Hmm... y'know, I have to go with that series of posts where I made up names for different rare plushies xD
It was super fun, so I might continue it at some point!
Here's one of those posts: https://animaljamstream.blogspot.com/2018/11/plushie-naming-part-idk.html
Thanks so much for interviewing me!
YAY!! Thank YOU so much for these answers! I think this will be posted... next week? Most likely on a Tuesday/Wednesday :) Thanks again, Doomy!
DeleteDoomy, what are your pronouns? I was wondering because I realized I didn't know them. I use she/they! :)
ReplyDeleteShe/her! I should probably put them on my About Me section at some point
DeleteDo you know if May from Animal Jam Flash is still alive?
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure, I only met them on AJ once a long time ago. I really hope they're doing well
DeleteI do know that the last post on AJF was titled "blessed," but I can't find an archive of that post anywhere. And one of the other authors on the last accessible archive of AJF mentioned May wasn't doing well, but it's unclear if that means May wasn't well mentally or physically or what. I worry :(
DeleteIf you play play wild can you buddy meh? Also I’m using bubble chat and can’t roleplay and why did you create this blog? Also uwu
ReplyDeleteHi, I have a question, can you explain why the aj roleplaying community is uh..I probably shouldn’t say it, but they are toxic and (uhhh) as I was once in a basement rp- and the owner was being op, and then when someone said “perms?” When she tilled someone, she said “we don’t do perms here” thankfully I never went to their rps again
ReplyDelete
