Animal jam is a good game but there's some things i don't like for example Hackers, Scammers, Show off's, Bullies, Memberships. I love animal jam but nonmembers get left behind what if they can't afford a membership or there parents can't get them 1 and there's a lot of show off's in the game now its rude and get people sad and makes them wanna quit animal jam. But its a very good game I've played ever since it came out i don't play much now. Written by (Ajrocksforbffs)
Its a really fun game! If adults are having problems with game and child please continue on reading
1. If your child is getting spamed with hurtfull/unapropriete messages tell them to lock it to no one or buddies only, if its on buddie only and those mesagges are showing, tell them to unbody whover that person is.
2. if they are scammed aor hacked tell them to ask a freind for help, if their freinds wont help tell them that its a virtual game and they shuoldn't worry.
3. inapropriete rp or texts will make bad stuff or child suspended. They shouldn't play aj for 1 day if this happens
4. Memberships keep the game going dont give a hissy fit about this.
Now i'm a child so ignore bad grammer, if your situatoins is not on the list please please please PLEASE just think a way to fix it insted of complain here
Hello if you are here to know my opinion of aj here it IS
BACK THEN: Animal jam was kinda cool when it came out, with everyone caring about friends and stuff.
Now: It's getting stupid aj.The only thing making them play the game is rares and showing off. Also aj is LEAVING non members behind :(. Also once a member was being mean to me bc i was nm but they were super nice to a member.
Addiction: One thing thats bad is the addiction of aj. I used to be really addicted to this game because in 2013 - 2014 AJ did really appeal with addiction to me.
Now in 2017 it's just stupid:(

The only bad part of this is that overprotective parents think this is a dangerous game, well if your child give their personal info to a stranger it's because they are dumb and all games are like that there will be some overaged user, but Animal Jam is the safest because the chat filter is amazing Animal jam keeps upgrading it making it almost impossible to say personal info and if you are super overprotective just give your child bubble chat! They can't say almost nothing with that.
Animal jam is a fantastic game! Overall theres bullies hackers scammers etc. its still a super good game! I have 550 friends on there! You should sign up ur child, the more fun the better! Sign up ur child for free! And dont complain about membership cuz thats what keeps the game running!
Ma fille est accro à ce jeu parce que les rares et les éléments. Cela ne doit pas beaucoup léducation et elle est obtenir une dépendance vraiment quelle ne peut pas penser droit plus Merci.
This is an amazing game. All the people that complained about their kids getting scammed have no idea what's going on. It's pretty much impossible to get scammed unless you are a complete idiot. The chances of getting hacked are 1/100, no joke unless you piss a hacker off. There are ways to express yourself, and I met a really nice friend through aj. For those people who were concerned about profanity, the game has changed so any hint of aj mating is punishable by banishment. A warning to all that start out; ajhq is slowly trying to destroy the rare system, as it is the cause for 99% of scams. Thank you, and play wild!
I loved this game for so long. I would dress my animals the second i got home from school. I had membership so i can have more fun. But then one day, i got scammed. Not only that, but ajhq were releasing rares in stores that messed me up and i almost wanted to quit because of the scammers. But this game is pretty awesome and i love it with all my heart. This game will be the best experience for you ever. However, there is a warning. Me and my best bud LOVED the game. We claimed that we'll never stop playing it. But now, i'm starting to grow out of animal jam. Not because of ajhq or bullies or rares or anything like that. But animal jam is a child's game and we can't be children forever. Lately my love has gone to the amazing book series harry potter by J. K. Rowling. I have not completely stooped yet, but the end of animal jam is coming to me pretty soon... I know. It's bitter-sweet... :( and :) It's sad that we can grow out of things, but that leaves more room in our hearts.
Animal jam is my favorite game EVER! People say there are a lot of scammers and hackers but you can avoid that by simply being smart. If you do get scammed then animal jam listens to you and doesn't let that person play the game. I defiantly recommend it! It is fun, educational, and overall AMAZING! JAM ON KIDDIES!
Though many people say it's full of predators, scammers, bullies, etc. it's not. People find themselves at the wrong place at the wrong time. Also, with the moderation part, it's actually really hard to get banned or suspended. Membership is actually quite cheap compared to other games like club penguin or poptropica, it also HAS an educational value. Predators are very rare, but i have had a few experiences with them because I have been playing Animal Jam since the summer of 2010. And parents who are kind of strict with the concept of strangers. There is safe chat which will restrict curse words, swearing, and anything inappropriate. Also to get suspended or banned, you have to be saying whatever you want over, and over again. So if you say things like "Gift me, I'll gift back" a bunch of times, be warned you will get suspended for that. The safe chat considers it a form of scamming do they block the chat. I will admit that scamming has ruined the game a bit, but the only true form of scamming is using the trade glitch. Other times, like at giveaways, it's just you trusting someone who can't be trusted with your items and being so surprised that they locked you out of their den. Also problems with pedophiles, simple fix. Report and block them. That easy, a five year old could do that. There is also an option to close jam-a-grams, buddy requests, etc. Also to cancel a membership go to your parent account and cancel it there. By the way, members don't brag or talk trash about the non-members (unless they are spoiled) Members aren't really that bad as others say they are. In my opinion animal jam is a great game, which is friendly for the younger and the old. If I were a parent, which I am not, I would gladly sign my child up for this game and buy them a club membership.
I cancelled my grandchild's membership in late 2016. They still auto bill me despite my request to destroy my billing info. The last time, after they refunded me, they assured me that there would be no more bills. Surprise! Got billed again this month and have to start the refund process all over again. Their customer service line no longer works so you can only contact them by email. I guess I expected too much from National Geographic.
Please DON'T sign your child up. We were having problems with my daughters account, there are males on there that were writing her inappropriate things so we wanted to change her username and transfer her items, that she has has been working on for 3 years. Should be simple, right? 40 messages back and forth with customer support and they cut off her account for over week. I complained to paypal because her membership that we paid for was cut off. Without warning, they BANNED her account after 3 years of paid subscriptions and her building up items. Your child means nothing to this company but money. Don't do it, there are pedophiles on there stalking kids, your child will get addicted and there is no educational value from this game.
At first, I was absolutely in LOVE with this game. But when I got more into the social part and sighned up rather then being a guest I started to notice a lot of scamming and bullying as well as inappropriate talk and actions. I definitely don't recommend this game for any kids. All the scammers, bullies, and over aged people playing this game have completely ruined the original purpose which was to educate kids on animals and nature. I stopped playing this game and if you are playing it you should stop immediately. This game is a mind consuming game full of mean people.
I've been playing Animal Jam since 2011 and enjoyed it since. Always updated with fresh content, beautifully designed, and the community team at AJHQ work very closely with us and are always connecting with the community. Keep up the great work AJ if you're reading this.
I think animal jam is a fun game to play. In my opinion the only problem is the fact that a lot (i mean A LOT) of the things you can get are for members (which you have to pay for). But otherwise, this is a pretty good game.
Great game! My daughter loves to interact with her real life friends over the game! The learning ability from this game is amazing! 5 stars as soon as my daughter laid eyes on it!
Yo quiero ser miembro por que soy pobre y me llamo lilakwaii0 y quiero ser miembro por que ellos son geniales y quiero ******* diamantes y ******* de gemas gracias.
There is a game called Animal jam play wild.it is a computer game.and there is lots to do like you can add friend and it is an online game. You can make accounts. You can also buy items and collect gems and diamonds. You can also make your own username and password. You also can get rares. There are lots of places you can go like coral canyons, Jamaa township, kembera, aplda, M. T shiveer, temple of zios, crystal sands, sarepia forest, there is also a water land. Here are the names. Kani cove, crystal reef, Deep blue, Bahari bay. You also can give jam a grams to other jammers. If you play you will also have a den. You will be able to decorate the den and they made an new update and there was only 500 items you can have now you can have 1,000
Den spaces. There are also memberships you buy and you become a member.
This game is the best. I recommend this for all children. My daughter comes to me everyday with amazing animal facts and fun experiences from the game. You should totally bye your kid membership.
My 7 year was playing this game. They have accused her of using pillows in the den to write the word s*x ( there were no pillows in the den). She's is 7 and doesn't even know what that word means. When i say that she has been hacked they say it was geographically done from our location. They cant provide any proof eg. Screen shot. They refuse to give me back the 6 months i PAID for and have said there is a permanent ban on the account! This game says they are all over parents being aware of childrens play ( hence the parent account) but with no warning and definitely no explanation they shut down all accounts then tell you there are no refunds! False accusations and a rip off!
Answer: You should report the person who scammed you. You should also look up the different types of scams so you can avoid being scammed in the future.
Answer: Members get cool stuff like members only items and animals as a reward for buying a membership. Otherwise, no one would buy a membership, so AJHQ wouldn't have any money and they wouldn't be able to keep running the game. However, there are some cool things for non-members as well; you might just have to look a little harder.
Answer: No because then it would be unfair to non-members.
Answer: Make it not a pay to win game. People are being mean because they think they are better at everything because they have a membership. Scamming is usually also because of memberships.
Answer: If you are a nonmember i would reccomend simply making a new account with the username you prefer and moving your things there.
