I'm fairly sure that everybody's seen a member acting like they're way better than a nonmember. I sure have, way more than I should. I see that ALL the time, and it's rude, it's horrible, and it's mean. Members and nonmembers are all people, and the only difference is that members bought a membership. And how on Earth does spending money on a membership make you a better person? Sure, you get more dens and items and animals, but that does NOT mean that members have more power on Animal Jam. Non members are amazing, and members are too. So, we should show it.
This is just a half formed idea that popped into my head one day, called Orange for Fairness (ok, I didn't put much time into thinking about a name. Sorry. Ideas for the name readily accepted. ) Actually, I got the idea from a protest for nonmember rights, where someone had told people to turn orange if they supported nonmember rights. It was a really good idea, and so I started going around to different and fairly crowded places, jumping up and down, and saying "turn orange and hop if you support nonmember rights!!!!" It actually worked well, and a lot of people were really supportive. I asked people to go around to other places and start doing the same thing, also asking other people to do the same thing. I'm fairly sure that a bunch of other people participated.
If a bunch of people start doing this, it could start a chain effect that might catch the eye of AJHQ. If you think that they aren't watching, I'm fairly sure that they are. There was a time when I joined a large protest to bring an item back into the diamond store, and within the next month, the item came out. It might be a coincidence, maybe not. I think that this might be able to help nonmembers, which would be amazing.
I do understand that membership goes to good causes and to keeping AJ running, but nonmembers are getting less and less items lately. Now, they can't even have free speech. It's so annoying. I have a nonmember account, too, and it's extremely unfair that you have to pay money to get fair rights. What I'm trying to do isn't to completely delete membership and have equal rights for everything, because that wouldn't happen, but I am trying to get a few things back, at least, like more pets, a couple more animals, a couple more dens, free speech, and more items.
If you want to participate in this, and please do, don't be mean or threaten anybody, because that's sort of the opposite of the point, and plus, it's just not nice. Be nice and polite, but tell people to spread the word.
Thanks for listening! :)
