Howl #2: Members Are NOT Bad!

Hey Howlers!

When I say that Non-Members aren't as equal as Members, some Jammers think that I'm saying that Members are terrible and need to fall off of a cliff. But that's okay, sometimes I should word it differently.

Members are NOT bad Jammers. Members are NOT better than everyone else. Members are NOT terrible and think they're so cool. Just because a Jammer is a Member, it doesn't mean they're a wannabe, or an escapee from being a Non-Member (unless they say that), or a popular jerkwad (unless they act like that). Don't go up to a Member and say that they're an idiot because they have a membership. Memberships do help keep Animal Jam up and running, and they can buy pets and things like that. That's what makes Jammers want to become Members, plus they help save big cats!

But just because you don't do this, that doesn't mean being a Non-Member is terrible! It's free, you don't have to worry about cluttering your den storage or clothing storage with items, and EVERY Jammer has been one. Maybe you were a Non-Member for 5 minutes, and then you got a membership for a year that keeps recurring, so you will never be a Non-Member again. But you were still a Non-Member once. And when you think about it, Members are only upgraded versions of Non-Members. They still have a nametag like others, just a bit fancier, etc. Non-Members might not have the best items or clothing, but we still have ourselves, our character, our wonderful buddies! So now, some of you might be thinking, "If you think Non-Members are great, then why did you make this blog so they can have better things?" Okay. I don't have a low self-esteem in being a Non-Member, but I still think that Members and Non-Members should be treated somewhat more equally, with better choices of items, and such. How many of you agree?

Think about this!

Howl #1: Den and Clothing

In all of the shops around Jamaa (besides the flag shop), the majority of the clothing or den items are for Members only. Now, the reason why most of the items are for Members only is because Animal Jam needs money as a financial aid to support the site. Otherwise, Animal Jam couldn't continue! But does that mean the items we are given have to be limited in the stores?

Take the couches for Members only. They're elegant but expensive. Now take that hideous striped couch for Non-Members. It has no back-side, it's small, and doesn't have the best design. Sure, you can change its color, but CAN Non-Members change colors? No.

Go to Kani Cove and visit Sunken Treasures. Count the Member items and the Non-Member items. There are no Non-Member items, because Non-Members can't have underwater dens. We can have underwater animals, but not underwater dens?

In the Shiveer Shoppe, they have those nice fancy blankets for Members. They also have "Old Blankets" for Non-Members. Even the title makes you not want to buy it! Seriously, when I see this item, I feel like I, as a Non-Member, am a piece of garbage. It's an OLD BLANKET. WHO WANTS AN OLD BLANKET? Now I have one of the rare versions, but I never wear it.

Rare Item Mondays. To be off-topic for a second, I don't like to say that these items aren't rare. Sometimes around Jamaa, I hear Jammers saying that these items are stupid and worthless. If you don't like what Animal Jam has to give you, like different colored versions of items or something, then don't bother playing Animal Jam. Who CARES if it's rare or not? You might be the person saying that rares don't even matter, and now you're mad because these items aren't new or rare.

Anyway. Most Rare Item Mondays are for Members Only. If they want us to actually enjoy Rare Item Monday, then they should start making the item for everyone every week!

I'll post another howl later on!

Hey!

Hey Jammers! 

This is Feelers, and I created this mini-blog to inform Jammers of the differences and limited privileges that Non-Members get from Members. More posts will be coming with information on differences, privileges, and social behavior!

Howl Out!
