Space Satellite+Last Day Items+ Diamond Shop Anger?

Hey- Today is another addition to the Space Set!

It's cool I guess, but also expensive.

Now, many items are leaving, including some Valentine's Day items that got left behind when the St. Patrick's items started to leave.

Here are the items:

Heart Mat 

Clover Bracelet (Left) and Clover Balloon (Right)

Oh, the Diamond Shop. Today I logged on and saw those gleaming windows and taunting red flag. Now, if you read my old blog you probably saw me protesting/ screaming at AJ for the creation of the Diamond Shop. I'm going to do it again in a better way now.

While exploring the Animal Jam Wiki, I was viewing an article about the Diamond Shop. I was completely amazed to find one paragraph in it that summerized my view of the Diamond Shop as almost a whole.

From the AJ Wiki:

"When the Diamond Shop came out, it caused a lot of controversy amongst the game. Jammers, primarily members, had taken months to collect as much rares as possible to self-proclaim themselves as the "rarest Jammer". However, when the Diamond Shop came out, many older rares were brought back and for sale there. This caused an outrage amongst the Jammers. Currently, most of the controversy has died down, and most Jammers have learned to deal with this, and seek for other rares. Also, there is not much for non-members in the Diamond Shop, as most of the items sold there are for members only."

Here's how I feel:

"When the Diamond Shop came out in the summer of 2013, I felt devastated. Me, only having membership since March, have only received the Arctic Wolf pet and Spirit Helmet, Spirit Armor and glove,and now, they were bringing back every "Rare" for diamonds. Sure, you could wait a couple of weeks for a certain item, but everyone knows that AJ invented the diamonds so Jammers could purchase them with real money. The Diamond Shop brought back thing like The Claw, the different weather clouds, and even the caged phantoms. Things that would have been rare if not for the diamond shop, their status in the AJ trading economy plummeting to the ground and causing complete confusion, chaos, and scamming. People would get scammed thinking a diamond shop item was still "rare." The Diamond Shop even brought back my own Spirit Armor, the golden "rare" sign disappearing the moment they were brought back. The glove, helmet, and armor were sold for one or two diamonds each for what we who received as monthly member gifts payed 5 dollars for another person can wait 1 or 2 weeks and get it for free. The old monthly member gifts were treasured among people. I once even got an offer of 2 spike collars for my glove, but I kept it because I thought it would get rarer (before the diamond shop.) Animals like the arctic wolf and snow leopard are what people paid 15 dollars for could possibly be gotten for free here. And to make matters worse, any old new person could just make an AJ account, get membership and buy everything in the diamond shop in a matter of minutes, for what the older people have worked hard months trying to trade or receiving specially as a gift. And the people who had those items in the first place now had all their items loose value, and you couldn't tell who had the item first, it didn't matter, because now all those rares were worthless. Even the LEGENDARY GLOVE AND DRAGON GLOVE were put in the diamond shop for 4 diamonds apiece. Those items were probably the most treasured in the game, and now they were WORTHLESS. And why did AJ cause this huge drop and devastation? To get more money. Their essential goal was to get people to go, "Oh, I wish I was like a rare person. Look, they are selling rares in the diamond shop! I can finally get items and be rare and cool! But my limit is only one diamond week, I'm impatient so I'll pay $30 for pixels. Yay!"

Now, as the AJ wiki states, people have calmed down, but I'm still irritated at the diamond shop.

Sorry for all the negativity so I'll put an adorable kitten in :)
