So, as some (or most) of you may know... today is the 8th of July 2025. And this is a VERY special day. I know what you're probably thinking (always assuming you didn't read the title lol)- "Oh, okay. But what's so special about the eight of Ju-" IT'S THE DAY I CREATED MY 3DSPAINT ACCOUNT!!!
Exactly one year ago, I created an account on the very site I love, not knowing that I'd still be active to this day and would make so many amazing friends and memories!
The History of Amjam
So, when I first created an account on here, I never really used it much. I mainly used it to talk to my friends @Crystal and @CoryDory who I would previously speak to via my 3DS Friend List. After exploring the site a little bit, I had concluded that this site was dead, but I never expected 500 comments welcoming me to the site! What I didn't know at that time was that most people spoke in Groups rather than chatrooms so that lead to me thinking the site was a "barren wasteland". So, let's fast forward to around mid-August.
I was finally starting to become more active on the site. This is evident from the fact that I wrote my first Blog (which was featured by none other than... DRACONID_JO!) on the 10th of August. I finally joined a few Groups and (later) decided to create my own! (I'll explain more about it later.) Anyway, one night- on the 15th of August- I saw that there was a few people in a chatroom so decided to join. There was a new member... TIAISCOOL! So, we spoke a bit and became friends. Little did I know, I'd be making my greatest friend on 3DSPaint! Towards the end of August, I was coming on EVERYDAY and spending HOURS online. I knew many members of the community at this point?
On the 22nd of August, I created a Group- 3DSiPaint. This Group instantly gained a lot of popularity and inspired many people to create their own Groups. For a good while, 3DSiPaint was the most active Group on Paint, thought it is now quite dead
September. An interesting month. The "rebirth" of everyone on Paint's arch nemesis. I won't get into too much detail, but I'm sure anyone who was active in 2024 will remember staying in chatrooms for like 3 hours everyday trying to get rid of a 'certain someone'. Now, I'm not sure about the exact date but on the (I think) 27th of September, I was promoted to Chatmin- my first admin power! I would go on to earn another 3 powers in October (Blogmin, Terminator- R.I.P- and Imagemin).
Okay, so, since I haven't got enough time to write eeevrythiiingggg, I'll fast forward to mid-Novemer. I was gone. I wasn't able to come on for a good SEVEN MONTHS, only popping in every few weeks to tell everyone that I'm not dead. I'm not gonna get into the details of WHY I couldn't come on, but you'll probably know already. But I have now returned and will, soon, be just as active as I was before! (I hope.)
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed reading my (reasonably boring) anniversary Blog, and I'm sorry that it isn't very long. I'd make it much longer and detailed if I had more time ;-;
I wanted to end this Blog by thanking all of the AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING people I have met over the last 365 days, and I have 4 words to say.
WHAT ABSOLUTE CINEMA. sorry im a little late to the party. And thank you for introducing me to paint! You were the one who mentioned it after all (im 99% sure).
This blog is waaaayyy better than the one im planning to make, im calling it.
@Amjam hey man I'm glad your back dude I went on your group for a bit after it died and dude it was so sad when you were gone but since your back your group is back so man I'm glad but just to let you know I'm not on as often as what I once was since of life, school,and family but nice job on the promotions and I might talk to you later man.
Thank you so much Jax!!! That means so much to me I missed you and everyone else here so much, and I was super worried when you randomly disappeared last year. Anyway, I hope you can be more active!
Thanks for thanking me for featuring your first blog here BTW, although you should also mention here that it was @UwUQueen who asked everyone in the chatroom who'd be the best person to make a chatmin to deal with that “certain someone” who was plaguing the chatrooms at the time, and that there was a vote held in the chatroom at the time, and that literally everyone there voted in favor of you being the one. (That was sort of a precursor to the admin election later on as well, and it proved that democratically elected admins can--and indeed have,in every single case--do an AWESOME job!)
I always make sure to like my own blogs, lol! (I mean, it'd be unfair to myself of I didn't, given that I'm always liking everyone else's blogs, y'know lol?)
