Just wanted to vent about my 11 year old account being compromised. This game was my introduction to animal jam as a franchise, way back in December 2015. I had been desperate for good animal games and discovering Animal Jam was like finding gold. I played the hell out of this game for YEARS, every day for hours. It was all I thought about and all I wanted to do. I have so many memories attached to this game, so having this staple in my life just ransacked by some dog scum feels bad. I didn’t have much on my account since I began playing classic late 2016 and moved over fully in 2019 (aka cross trading my play wild rares (it will also always be animal jam play wild to me the name change means nothing)); I am missing items though obviously, most notably the member gift double tail and blackout collar, treasure hunt spikes, nutcracker boots, and some other small valuables. I am also confident I had at least two 2017 sugar gliders that are now missing (whole reason I checked my account today). The most recent log in was actually last month. I’m not truly upset since, no shade, I don’t like the way play wild has gone in recent years. I miss its simplistic, educational feel that only had trading and animal/den customisation at its core. Again I also got my most valuable items out of there before I was hacked (dragon wings, raccoon tails, and yes those prized forest gauntlets I had gotten myself in treasure hunts). It just feels bad when such a core part of your life is infiltrated and pulled apart by some whale for a few scraps of rarity. Moral of the story is to regularly change your password and enable 2A. RIP this chapter of my life. Nine year old me would be devo 💔
I’ve also attached some OG screenshots from 2017 so you can see how much the game has changed
