Thank You For the Good Times

Greetings to all agents and readers. It is with a heavy heart that we announce the closure of the AJSASS. Now, you're probably wondering why we have suddenly decided to close our doors for good. We'd like to take the time now to explain why we have decided to make this decision.

As we're sure many of you have noticed, there is way less scamming in AJPC than when we first started. Don't get us wrong, this is a good thing! However, fewer scammers mean that there is less content to post. Additionally, the majority of our agents have retired over the last several months, and those who are still with us are still struggling to keep things running. It is difficult to keep up a consistent posting schedule when you're dealing with a lack of time/motivation, and even more so when there are statistically fewer scams taking place to be posted about.

We tried to revive the already dying society by attempting to expand into other games and platforms. We had an action plan written up to detail the steps we should take in order to proceed with the change. Unfortunately, we hit considerable roadblocks during this plan that made it impossible to continue with. Furthermore, we feared that suddenly switching our blog to be about a different game entirely would alienate our viewers who were only interested in posts about Animal Jam. With no guarantee that a switch in demographic would result in better blog performance, we decided it was a risk that we couldn't afford to take. We were quickly running out of options and had no choice but to confront the elephant in the room.

In the survey we put out last month, nearly all responders agree that Animal Jam Classic as a whole is on the decline, with fewer overall active players than there once was. To anyone who has been keeping up with Animal Jam over the past year or so, this isn't exactly a secret. The game is updated very infrequently, leaving players with little incentive to keep playing as there is no new content to enjoy. This is exacerbated by the fact that many places in the world are starting to roll back restrictions and safety measures introduced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of AJPC's players, including our agents and staff, are going back to school and/or taking on new responsibilities and thus have less time to devote to the game. The Animal Jam community as a whole is drying up, and it's hard for us to justify putting so much time and effort into blogging about a topic that few people have an interest in anymore.

With all that being said, we really don't want to give the impression that we will resume posting once things pick back up. With the current situation, it is very unlikely that we will be able to regain the momentum that we once had during the height of the pandemic. The future is too uncertain for us to make any promises. Additionally, even if we were able to pick up posting again, our efforts are somewhat pointless if there is no one reading our posts. As AJPC continues to be neglected in terms of new content with no signs of things changing anytime soon, we don't know if the game's popularity will ever return to its former state. Therefore, we have decided to make it official that our team's operations will be ceasing indefinitely.

We would like to thank all the agents who have joined and worked with us over the years and poured their time into helping raise awareness of scamming in Animal Jam. Thank you for bearing with us and working tightly to keep the society functional! We would also like to thank every viewer who read our posts, left us comments, applied to join, submitted scammers to us, and more. Thanks for sticking with us through the highs and lows, and we are sorry that things had to come to an end like this.

Rest assured, the blog itself is not going anywhere! All of our existing content will be available for you to see, however, we will not be publishing any additional content. Our Agent Applications and Report Scammers forms will also be closed effective immediately.

Closure aside, the society Discord server will still be up for those of you who want to chat. We can't guarantee a decent level of activity, but it is an easy way to contact us should you have any questions.

We've come to the end of this post. Thank you again, from the bottom of our hearts to everyone who played a part in the society, be it an agent or reader.

As always, stay safe and jam on!

Audience Survey


Howdy everyone, Danny here. Apologies for the very infrequent posting as of late, and thank you for bearing with us despite that. I unfortunately do not have any super exciting news for you all today, but I do have a small announcement.

The AJSASS Staff have put together a survey that we want viewers of the blog and users of our Discord server to fill out for us! The survey has three main sections focused on different topics: the first is specifically about the posts we make here on the blog, the second is about general opinions on Animal Jam, and the final section is about social media usage.

This survey is completely optional of course, but we would really appreciate getting as many responses as we can to ensure the data we collect is accurate. You do not have to respond to every section and are welcome to skip any questions you don't want to answer or questions that don't apply to you. If you have any friends who play Animal Jam (Classic or Play Wild), even if they are not familiar with our blog, they can fill out the survey as well and simply skip the first couple of questions.


That's all for now. Thanks for reading, and it would really help if you took some time to fill out the survey! ;)

Update Post - September

Hello everyone! Today, I present the update covering the events of September. This update will be quite short, and I apologize for the lack of content lately.

First, I'd like to congratulate Agent Snow for winning the sapphire prize for scammer posts in September! Congratulations!

Also, I'd like to congratulate Agent Snow for being promoted to Sigma! Congratulations on that too!

Next, we didn't see the influx of new agents as we hoped. Additionally, our report form is almost dry. As a result, our activity in September almost hit a dead point. Therefore, we felt that it would be best to freeze posting starting this month, until we feel that we are ready to post again. We will still post update posts along the way to keep you updated on things in the society. But other than that, we won't be posting our other types of posts unless it's really important. Sorry for the inconvenience!

Finally, with the freezing of posts, we will undergo a lot of change and restructuring. We are considering expanding our watch to different children's games that have a scamming issue. The first one we are considering is Roblox. Though, that is only one of many possibilities. If you know any other children's games that could have a scamming problem, please drop it in the comments, or let us know on Discord!

That's all the updates for now. I truly hope we will soon be able to sort the society restructuring out and start posting normally again. As always, stay safe and jam on!

Random Saturday Ep. 96: Diamond Shop Spikes

 

Hey guys!Agent Pluto here with this week's Random Saturday! Today I'm going to be covering diamond shop spikes on AJPC and their worths! Diamond shops spikes have been in Animal Jam Classic for years but some newer jammers might not know their history! 

First, we have the "First-Gen" diamond spike collars from 2013:

Spirit AJ: Spikes

These spikes also came in wrists of the same colors and both are coveted items by collectors and normal players alike. These spikes were originally sold for 3 diamonds each. They are worth from a bad long collar to even two black longs. 

Next, we have the "First-Gen" diamond short collars from 2015:

Spiked Collar | Animal Jam Classic Wiki | Fandom

These spikes came in 8 colors, black, light blue, turquoise, green, peach, purple, pink, and white. they also came in wristbands of the same color. These collars sold for 3 diamonds each. Every color of this spike is worth one den beta each. 

Now, we have the worn spike collars from 2017:

anyone have a nm purple worn spike ft? | Fandom

These collars, unlike the rest on this list, were a nonmember item. They also came in wristbands that were also nonmember. These collars were sold for 3 diamonds each. These collars are worth a bad long collar each because of their nonmember status. 

Lastly, we some other miscellaneous spikes from over the years:

These honorable mentions include the Ancient Spike Collar, the Blackout Spike Collar, the Solid Gold Spike Collar, the Magenta Spike Collar, the Mythic Spike Collar, and the Rainbow Spike Collar. all of these spikes were sold for around 3 diamonds each. they are all worth around a clothing beta each.

Welp, that is a wrap on this week's random Saturday! See you all next time

This is Agent Pluto, blasting off.

Random Saturday Ep. 95: Pack Runs


Hello everyone! It's Rose writing this week's Random Saturday. 

This week's topic will be about Pack Runs on AJPW. 

Pack Runs are rotational events that are hosted every time of the year, which have different items to collect on the run, and they also give different prizes. A few examples of existing events include Crab-A-Rama, Delightful Deliveries, and Jolly Jamaalidays. 

During a Pack Run, which can consist of up to 8 members in the same pack, players can pick up the item designated to earn points towards a collective goal. 

Another way points can be earned is to perform a specific action or display a certain emote on a pothole. 


After points are collected, they can be dropped off at a platform, which counts them as part of the goal that the team should achieve. 


After these points build up individually, players can buy prizes with them — most of these prizes come in sets and match with each other! 

Have fun exploring this feature, and that's all for this week's Random Saturday!

Agent Insights Ep 70: Good and Bad Personal Information


Hello everyone! The AJSASS staff and Agent Galaxy are here to talk about personal information. To be more specific, we'd like to go into detail about what personal information is ok to share with others, and what is not.

You've probably been told before that you shouldn't share personal information on the internet. Generally, you shouldn't, but some information is okay to share. There is even some information that is only ok to share in certain situations. This post was made to provide a general list of types of information and when it's okay to share it. If you're ever in doubt about whether or not you should be sharing a certain type of information, it's always safer to not share it.

Information like your first name, what country you live in, or your pets' names is generally alright to share. This information can't be used to find out personal information about who you are or where you live. Other things like your gender, race, etc. are also very vague, general descriptors that are very unlikely to harm you. Things like the city you live in or the neighborhood you're from are much more questionable. This is because it can be combined with other information you provide to physically pinpoint your location. A specific city or neighborhood is much smaller than say, a country or state. Hence, people with malicious intent will be able to make more use of the information about your city/neighborhood than your country/state.

On a similar note, you shouldn't tell people stuff like the name of the school you go to/used to go to, your last name, phone number, or other stuff that can be used to locate you or personally identify you. In general, you don't want to give information that can be pieced together to find you. Therefore, it is very important to keep track of what you tell others to make sure you don't accidentally reveal too much about yourself. Predators will probably keep a list of what was said so that they can piece together information to form specific deductions. It is your job to make sure that they do not have enough information to piece together.

It should also be noted that some information, such as your first pet's name, your mother's maiden name, and random family members' names can be used in verification questions that appear when you change a password. If you have ever made an account on a website before, you may have been asked to create "security questions" to provide additional protection for your account. These questions are usually along the lines of "what was the name of your first pet?" or "what was the name of your 1st grade teacher?". You should remember what information you've used in such questions and avoid giving it out to strangers. Otherwise, they could use the information to break into your account.

Be wary of posts people share that ask you to combine multiple pieces of info to form a "nickname" of some sort. For example, you have probably seen posts that say something like "your superhero name is the color of the shirt you're wearing right now + the closest object on your left side!". This question is pretty innocuous and is simply a silly joke post. The information it asks for is vague, random, and could not be used to identify you. On the other hand, a question that says something like "your undercover identity is the name of your first pet + your mother's maiden name" is likely not as innocent. People who post those kinds of interactable images that ask for very targeted information are likely attempting to phish for answers to security questions.

Telling people your age is also generally safe, as it cannot be used to personally identify you. That being said, it is not a requirement and it is perfectly fine to not want other internet users to know how old you are. Additionally, be cautious around anyone who pressures you into sharing your age or makes a big deal out of how old you are. If you are hanging out with somebody older than you or whose age you don't know, who continually comments on how "mature" you are for your age or how long it is until you turn 18, it's highly encouraged that you cut contact with them. These tactics are often used by adults preying on teenagers and children. Remember that, if anyone on the internet is making you uncomfortable or simply giving you bad vibes, you DO NOT have to keep talking to them! There's nothing wrong with blocking other users, even if they haven't specifically done anything wrong.

Another thing that should generally be avoided is real-life images of yourself. As mentioned before, don't give online friends a way to track you down. There are ways for people to find out a lot about you from just one image, so don't send it. This also applies to sending images of places near your location. For example, do not send a picture of the outside of your house/other houses in your neighborhood, a landmark near where you live, etc. Most importantly, don't ever feel pressured to send a real image of yourself because the other party did. You do not know if the image they sent is really them. Even if it is, you are never obligated to ignore your boundaries.

Finally, don't give your financial information to anyone that isn't a trustworthy site. This is because people can steal the information given to take money from you, or use your account to pay their bills.

Please note that the list we have here is definitely not exhaustive. However, the general rule of thumb still stands: do not give the other party enough information to be able to track you down or personally identify you.

That's all for this post! Remember to stay safe!

Random Saturday Ep 94: The History of Crystal Sands


Hey guys! Agent Pluto here back with another Random Saturday! Today, I am going to continue talking about the Beta period of AJPC! This time I am covering the history of Crystal Sands, and how it was different in the Beta period.

To recap, the Beta period was a time in Animal Jam Classic before it was fully released to the public. The game was very new and is much different than how it is today. Today, we are going to look at how Crystal sands have changed from the Beta period to now.

Let's start with how it looked in the beta period:


Clearly, Crystal Sands has gone through some pretty drastic changes from the Beta period to now. But, some of the layouts have stayed the same. We still have Captin Melvins Juice Hut in the same spot and the rock formations are similar.


The outside of Captin Melvins looks almost identical to how it looks now. From what we know, this image shows the spawn point. But overall it looks very similar to how it looks now.

We have no images of how captain Captin Melvins looked in the Beta. But from the information we know, it was a large tropical-themed room with the claw game and the iconic smoothie machine.

Let's take a look at Crystal Sands now:


As you can see, a lot was added to Crystal sands. while we still have the rocks and oddly green water. We now have Tierney's Aquarium, a museum that teaches you about all sorts of marine life. We also have new games such as Overflow, Double Up, and the Pet Wash. another addition is 4 new water slides that lay within the original rocks. Also, you can now travel underwater by walking off the 2 docks within the water. Which either take you to Crystal Reef of Kani Cove!

This concludes another chapter of The beta period in Animal Jam Classic. I hope you guys enjoy these Beta posts as much as I do.

That's all for this week's Random Saturday!

conejitalila (AJPC)

Do not attempt to track down or harass any of the scammers we post. We only ask that you report them, and maybe block them.


Hey Jammers! Snow here with a brand new scammer post! I was recently strolling through Jamma when I saw I saw Conejitalila advertising their shop. They said they were selling out of store items. I decided to check it out just to make sure that all the items were actually out of store.


A lot of the items were in stores and very overpriced. For example, the Curved Sofa (top left) is in Jam Mart Furniture and they were selling it for 15 diamonds. However its actual value would be lower than 1 diamond. I tried to confront Conejitalila about this however they didn't respond to my messages.

Over pricing items/lying about worth is a very common scam. What happens is that the scammers tries to manipulate jammers into believing that items like the Curved Sofa are worth a lot more than they actually are. People can end up losing lots of diamonds and even potentially rare items over this scam. So remember that whenever you are trading or buying an item make sure you know that it's a fair trade/buy to avoide getting scammed.

That's all for today! I hope you found this helpful and remember to report Conejitalila for scamming! Stay safe and jam on! -Snow 🦎

Random Saturday Ep. 93: Packs


Hello everyone! It's Rose this week, and I'll be talking about Packs on AJPW. 

Packs are a feature on AJPW that are open to both non-members, members, and Guest Jammers. 

The maximum number of Jammers that can be in one pack is 100 — they also have private and public options, where the owner can choose to open the pack to everyone, or just certain people.

The crest that identifies each Pack is customizable, with 41 crest colors, 160 patterns, 60 shapes, and 159 symbols to choose from, and one out of six alphas to represent the Pack. 

Packs also have Hideouts, which are worlds that are exclusive to the members in one Pack, and there are multiple small features in the Hideouts. 

Pack runs, which are 5-minute missions that multiple members of a Pack can work together to accomplish — most of the time these are collecting currency for an event to earn prizes.

There is also a gem tree that allows players to collect gems or Sapphires every hour, and a chest that resets its prizes every update. Pack merchandise is a newer feature that allows Jammers in a Pack to buy items that show off their Pack crest. 

Another miscellaneous feature is the Color Cloud, which randomizes the colors of the current animal that a Jammer has equipped, which may or may not be on the color wheel.

That's all for this week's Random Saturday!

This is Rose, signing off.

blueberry7strawberry (AJPC)

Do not attempt to track down or harass any of the scammers we post. We only ask that you report them, and maybe block them.


Hi, Jammers. Agent Galaxy here with another scammer post. 


This user, blueberry7strawberry, was advertising their long black spiked wristband in Coral Canyons. They asked for 2 short spiked collars for their "Solid wrist." 


The Animal Jam Worth Wiki states that a long black spiked wristband is worth 4 den betas if you are unfamiliar with worth. The worst short spiked collars are worth 4 den betas as well. They were asking for 2 times the worth of this long wristband. 


When someone asked if this was an overtrade, the scammer said that it was not since the wrist was "a solid." I had been watching carefully since seeing blueberry7strawberry and said I would check to see if it was an overtrade.

As soon as I said that I would check the worth of the wristband, blueberry7strawberry left the world. 
If a player leaves after their trade is called into question, they were likely trying to scam for more than an item is worth and was caught. You should check the Worth Wiki or consult with other jammers who are well-versed in item worth to prevent overpaying for an item or getting scammed. 

Please report blueberry7strawberry for scamming and stay safe!

Random Saturday Ep. 92: My Shop


Hello everyone! It's Rose again with this week's Random Saturday. This week, I'll be posting about the My Shop in AJPW. 

It was released in September 2019, and it can be bought for 100 Sapphires at Shoreline Decor. There are 6 color variants, which are red, blue, orange, black, green, and purple. 

Items can be sold for gems or sapphires in these user-owned shops for up to 15,000 gems or 1,500 sapphires. The shops are limited to 25 items per shop.

Players can rename their shop with a list of selected words; they consist of an optional adjective and a name for the kind of shop, which is mandatory.

This item is members-only and can only be used and placed in dens if a player has a AJPW or AJPC membership. My Shops are also not tradable.

Have fun using this feature! This is Rose, signing off.

Random Saturday Ep 91: Tierney's Aquarium


Hello everyone! Snow here with the blog's 91st random Saturday! Today I will be talking about Tierney's Aquarium. 🦎

Tierney's Aquarium came to crystal sands on march 15th 2012. So it has been around for over 9 years! The point of the aquarium is to teach jammers about the ocean and underwater animals. All the videos and information are by Tierney, hence the name.


Tierney is a marine biologist, a marine biologist is someone who studies oceans and their inhabitants. On Animal Jam she is mostly known for the short videos she creates at the movie theater found in Tierney's aquarium. Tierney worked with national geographic as an explorer for many years and that is how the job came up.


There are lots of cool features in Tierney's aquarium, including the ocean portal. When you first walk in, there is a portal that leads you to Kani cove. There is also a similar-looking portal that leads you to a minigame called Touch Pool. Another cool thing is the aquarium. This aquarium used to have videos that showed fish swimming past a camera, however, it was deleted a few years ago. The aquarium also has some fish that when you drag your mouse around them, they will follow your cursor!


Tierney's Aquarium is available in Animal Jam and Animal Jam Play Classic. Both versions are very much the same.

That's all for today! Thanks for ready jammers and stay safe! This is agent Snow signing off.

Agent Insights Ep 69: WildWorks Mascot Plushie


Howdy everyone! Danny here with a quick Agent Insights for you all in regards to a new item making the rounds. This week, the Rare Item Monday was a den item, which is rare enough in its own right, but to make it even more special, it was an entirely new item rather than just a recolor! Presenting, the WildWorks Mascot Plushie!


However, if you went to nab one of these guys for yourself last Monday, you may have noticed things were a bit off. To be specific, the item just... didn't show up. It wasn't there. While you could still purchase the plushie, the item itself did not exist. If placed in a den, it could not be selected, deleted, rotated, or moved around. According to one of the admins for the AJ Classic Wiki, it would seem the den item file for the WildWorks Mascot Plushie simply didn't exist. Guess AJHQ was in a bit of a rush this week?


As you can imagine, this has caused a bit of confusion. Many people have been misled into believing that this item is worth way more than it really is due to its elusive nature. People are offering den betas and spikes for this item, even though it is no more valuable than any other Rare Item Monday, with the exception of its price tag. I even saw somebody today selling it in their shop for 450 Diamonds, which was what prompted me to make this post in the first place.

In summary, the WildWorks Mascot Plushie is not "glitched". It was a little buggy on Monday when it came out, but that issue is fixed now. It does not have any special value, and it is most certainly not worth 450 Diamonds. Make sure not to get scammed!

Oh, and also: It is extremely likely that this item is going to be returning on Monday, August 9th. AJHQ never re-releases Rare Item Mondays, but this is a bit of a special case given the confusion caused by the item's buggy nature when it came out this week. According to the game's files, this item is set to be released again for next week's Rare Item Monday. So, if you missed it the first time around, just hold tight a couple more days rather than overtrading.

That's all for now. Stay safe and happy jammin'!

Update Post - July


Howdy everyone! Danny here with your monthly recap post for the month of July 2021. It's been a bit of a quiet month for us, so this post will be nice and condensed.

Your contributions are very appreciated!

To top it off, we are almost always looking for new members to join the AJSASS team! If you're interested in helping us out, head over to the Joining page.

That's all for this month. I hope everyone has a great summer this year. Stay safe and jam on!

saltt6 (AJPC)

Do not attempt to track down or harass any of the scammers we post. We only ask that you report them, and maybe block them.


Hello there, Jammers. This is Agent Rome coming out from the shadows to tell you about a scammer that has come out of the woodwork.


saltt6 brought people to their den on the understanding that one of them would receive a silver party hat, a coveted item in the wide world of Animal Jam. People came and left, warning others of this continuous and (supposedly phony) giveaway.


saltt6 declared that to win participants would need to engage in a troll trading competition, a ''battle of rarity'', if you will. They proclaimed that one needed to accept twice, and then decline. I questioned their methods here, to which they insisted that I could decline and that it was perfectly safe.


I began to suspect that lea083 was an ally to the scammer. They were the only person willing to trade, and they would encourage others to join in with them. During this time, I subtly warned the Jammers who were not actively trading via Jam-A-Grams of what was going on. This led them to become more vocal.


saltt6 is shown here fishing for any last-minute trades, since no one aside from their alleged ally was participating.


lea083 raised the expectations of the competition, supposing that anyone who did not accept 3 times could be scammed. This is in contrast with saltt6's former statement that Jammers should, ''accept 2 times, and decline once.''


lea083 presented a slew of achievements, a common indicator of a long-time player. However, at the same time, whether it was to detract from this or whether it was their wacky fashion sense, they dressed poorly.


In stark contrast with lea083, saltt6 came up short with very few achievements. One may argue the account was only fairly recently created.
Luckily, no trades were sent from anyone besides lea083. Remember, in a giveaway, nobody should be giving up anything but the host! All trades should be fair, and if anyone tells you otherwise, go to another place in the game or log off! This is Agent Rome, telling you to stay safe and have a pawtastic time!

Random Saturday Ep 90: The History Of Jamaa Township

Howdy Jammers! This is Pluto back at it with another Random Saturday!

This week, I will be covering a small portion of the "Beta" period of Animal Jam Classic! Before the polished version of Animal Jam classic was released, there was a testing phase known as the "Beta" era. Many items were released during this time that are now considered rare. But, a lot of new jammers don't know about this time period. Now I couldn't possibly fit everything about the beginning of animal jam and how it was before it was released to the public. But, today we will be talking about Jamaa and the changes it went through to get where we are. 

First, lets talk about the beta era:

Beta Days — Animal Jam Archives

Now as you can see, Jamaa Township has gone through some major changes throughout the years. the overall walkways have stayed relatively the same, with the 2 bridges on each side and the open middle. there was a total of 2 shops; Jam Mart Clothing (bottom right) and Jam Mart Furniture (top right). Also shown in this image, there are 3 other buildings; Club Geoz (top left), the Medical Center (bottom building; bottom left), and the Pillow Room (top building; bottom left)

Jamaa Township, the beta days. Look at the bunnies horn that is beta. I  wonder what his den looks like... | Animal jam, Animal jam play wild,  Animal jam animals

Here we see the spawn point of Jamaa Township during the Beta testing. In the middle, there is a sign that has changed a lot throughout the course of the game. the overall feel of the spawn point hasn't changed, but the layout of buildings has changed drastically.

Jamaa's Written Truth: Beta Times

Here is a picture of the Mira shrine which Is located at the very top of Jamaa. as you can tell, this area hasn't changed what so ever. but its important to show that some things haven't changed within the game throughout the years. 

Animal Jam Behind The Scenes: Beta Times!

Now we are looking at the bottom of Jamaa Township, where we have Jam mart clothing, the Pillow Room, and the Medical center. The fountain and the pillow room are the only parts of this area that have not moved since the beta.

Animal Jam Behind The Scenes: Beta Times!

Jam Mart clothing was one of the only shops in the game at the time, and it design hasn't changed. I can't find any images of Jam mart furniture, but it pretty much looks the same as it does now.

Now lets move on to present day


As you can see, there's been a lot of new additions throughout the land. Such as; the Diamond Shop (bottom right) , the Sol Arcade (bottom left) , and the Alpha Headquarters (bottom right). Club Geoz was removed in 2017 to be replaced with the Alpha Headquarters. the pillow room became less and less prominent. And the layout of Jam Mart Clothing and Jam Mart Furniture was changed to the spots we all know today. 

In the future, I hope to do more posts about different beta features. I feel like many new jammers don't know the history behind these lands that we all know and love. but for today, stay safe and Play Wild in AJPC!

-Pluto

Random Saturday Ep 89: AJC Roleplay Culture & History

 

Greetings from Agent Grave!

 Today I'm going to touch upon a topic that remains sentimental to me: the roleplay community in AJC. Most Jammers are aware that people roleplay warrior cats and wolves in Sarepia Aldan. Despite what it may seem, it is much more than pretending to be an animal. I've met lifelong friends from this special corner of the internet, and I'm still in touch with some of them today. Roleplay has given me a jump-start in my passion for writing, and I wouldn't have the skillset or opportunities I have today if I wasn't a warrior cats obsessed nerd. 

Our culture may seem strange to traders, but it makes us who we are, and resonates with us on a personal level. To understand roleplay culture, you must understand our history.

Do not attempt to track down or harass any of the scammers we post. We only ask that you report them, and maybe block them.


Hai, jammers! It's Blossom here, back with another scammer post. This scammer was submitted by a jammer that would like to be referred to as "qlinq." literallyghada approached qlinq by going to their den and asking if they wanted to offer for the tiara on their trade. 


Now, this is a common misconception among jammers. As mentioned in our "Rare Item Guide", the difference between the Tiara and the Beta Tiara (worth significantly more) is the color of the gem on it. 


You can see a pretty clear difference among the 2 tiaras, the Beta Tiara holding a blue gem, and the Tiara holding a red gem. 

literallyghada started asking if qlinq would trade a solid for it, and qlinq didn't have one so they offered their Orange Long Spiked Collar. 


literallyghada's reaction to the offer gave me the impression that they knew their Tiara was the fake.



Make sure you report literallyghada for scamming! This is Agent Blossom, signing off. Remember to stay safe and play pawsome!
