ANOTHER Announcement

Hai, jammers C: 

It is I, popcorn the pizza, back with another post.

So, I'm not really sure how to start this post. I've gotten/read some comments stating that Blogger is just easier to comment on, and that the AJD was kind of better here, etc. etc. I'm a sensitive person; I always take things the wrong way or just simply don't understand the main gist of a comment/post. So I just took those (actually very helpful) comments as "Boo, I hate this dumb decision, just stick with Blogger." In the end, I realize you all were right. (Also, I know that none of you meant to mean it like that; it's just become and unbreakable habit of mine that I really need to get past)

I appreciate all of your opinions :) That's probably what motivated me to... come back to Blogger. 

The blog will have another makeover, but I found Blogger a little easier to use. 

I haven't really been feeling my best lately (mentally, not physically) and just sluggish and not wanting to really do anything. Me interpreting those comments (like I mentioned above), did not help my burst of laziness and self-esteem. 

But I'm hoping to look past that all and continue to use the OG AJD!

Like always, I'll make a post today, just probably more later in the day. 

Toodles!

  1. YAY! Popcorn's back! You've made a Paw-some decision. (Also you have to change the mouse because it's still a flower XD)

    I can't figure out how to make my own ocean-themed mouse. The link inside A Jammer's Guide to Starting A Blog is blocked, and I can't download because I'm on a Chromebook. Any ideas?

    Also when is your AJMV coming out? You haven't even told us what the song was ;w;

    True though: It is kind of hard to access your new blog. I was having trouble finding the comment section when I realized you could just scroll down more... I wasted 5 minutes of my life lol

    1. YAY! Ooh, let me do that right now.

      Hmm, ok, thanks for letting me know. I can post it on this blog, and tweak it a little bit (fill it with more detailed information) so it's easier to understand?

      AGH I don't know D: I still haven't figured out how to transfer it from my mobile device to my computer.

  2. Heyo Popcorn! I can really relate, I haven't been feeling so good mentally either lately. You're not alone, and it's ok to feel these things <3

    I'd actually still be equally happy whether or not you posted here or on Wix. No matter the commenting issue, I think the biggest part of having a blog is making sure it's something that's making YOU happy. If trying out different platforms increases that happiness, that's really most of what matters! And besides, your posts are gonna be equally as good no matter the platform :)

    I remember you mentioning that you'd like to try out Wix because its layouts are generally more professional-looking. Most of the default Blogger themes you can choose from are indeed more "diary-styled", so it makes sense.

    However, if you don't like diary-styled blog themes and you're sure you wanna keep going here with Blogger, there are actually free Blogger theme templates you can download that might be more of what you're looking for! I haven't downloaded any before, so I dunno exactly how it works, but if you look up "free blogger templates 2021" I bet you might find some you like more than the default ones c:

    1. Oh also, maybe at some point a good idea would be to re-post (copy and paste) the blog posts from your Wix blog over here, just so they're all in one place :D

    2. That actually does make me feel better, Doomy :) It's weird how I tend to feel better knowing many other people feel the same... har har.

      Aww, Doomy, that's so kind! I appreciate your support on basically ALL of my decisions, even starting all the way back to September, when I LITERALLY DELETED ALL MY POSTS.

      That's a great tip! I have been experimenting with some free blogger templates; I think unfortunately the "app" payment my computer uses to download ZIP files (files for the templates) has expired :( But I'll definitely try looking into that!

      P.S. Ooh, I like that! Maybe I'll do a blog re-post day this weekend and just post all of the posts from Wix here. Thanks for the tip Doomy!

Hi jammers! Welcome to the comment section ^.^

Before you do comment, though, please read and accept the following rules :) Thank you!

-NO CURSING. (This includes using symbols like stars *** and letters) If you wouldn't say it to your parents, don't say it here ^.^
-DON'T SPAM. (Things like "aushfhsd" or "hey everyone buddy me I'm ... " Of course I would love to buddy you! But it would be nice if you mention something about the post as well :)
-KEEP LANGUAGE APPROPRIATE. Animal Jam is a kid-friendly game, so that means this blog is too. Try and keep your language appropriate and understandable uwu
-NO LINKS. Unless it's Animal Jam related (The Daily Explorer, your own AJ blog, etc.), no links to extra websites, blogs, videos, etc. Adding links will result in your comment being immediately removed.
-NO SELF PROMO PLEASE! I love each and everyone of your posts/updates on your blog, but it's not a very good feeling when you just finished an hour long post that gets one comment saying "hey look at my new post I just now finished it" or something like that! Just something to consider :)
- NO PERSONAL INFO. For your safety, please don't comment anything about your address, credit card information, name/age (optional, but not recommended), etc. If I see any of these in a comment, your comment will be removed immediately.
-NO BULLYING/RUDE BEHAVIOR. I hope people follow this rule in general, but in case you need a reminder there it is :P

Please try and follow these rules, as if they are ignored I may have to start moderating the comments :(

Each and every one of your comments will be appreciated, so thanks for commenting!
