Saying Farewell to Flash

Hey fellow viewers, so I had to make some changes to my post in my personal blog after reblogging it, so I’m going to have to copy and paste my content to this draft. So here we go…

It’s finally here, the last month of Adobe Flash’s life before all things (well, most of them) must come to an end. The time where we see our childhood fade away in front of our eyes once we hear the ball drop in New York through live videos during that pandemic, where we hold back every tear from our eye fiber as Flash reaches its end of support.

I’m sure we’ve all had memories of playing flash games and enjoying the graphics, from those 90’s graphics and animations to 2000’s and early 2010’s games, which has changed the history of video games. Since it is confirmed that Flash will lose its support by the end of this month, we might have to say goodbye to some of the media we loved. Except that some of the nostalgic sources which used to be supported by Flash would be converted to HTML5, played through a torrent, or somehow saved from being tossed into their graves in the Internet cemetery.

I’ve heard from the Pop community which I am barely active on now. The game is slowly being transported to Haxe or HTML5, which would explain the original islands going away from the map. Not to mention that there were players who noticed their account got converted from Flash to Haxe recently. There was also some group called the “Ragtag Squad” which reportedly saved 38,000 flash games from getting deleted forever before Flash dies, such as Fancy Pants Adventure and the school shooting game Pico’s School (yes, they had a game which involves that.) for a project called Flashpoint. According to WIRED, they had apparently used a special torrent to save the games.

On a final note, while Flash is planning its leave for the next 25 days, let’s cherish the moments where we’ve had fun trying to get the principal’s keys to escape the school, running through the walls and jumping over the holes which lead us to the void of space while trying not to get frustrated while passing levels, completing islands and chatting with other players, and going through the world of Adobe Flash one last time before its support has to get Thanos-snapped out of existence.

I’ll also be sure to make it to the party as well. If I get time to while studying for my next semester, of course.

We will miss you, old friend.

Something to confess (TW: Sensitive topic mention)

Hey guys and girls, it’s CKakaW once again.

I have decided to return to blogging… but only to confess a massively sinful thing I have done in the PopCommunity in a past year which I now very deeply regret doing, I have posted this in a personal WordPress blog I just created, and I have copy-pasted it into this blog, because apparently I don’t know how to reblog, since the stupid reblog button won’t appear despite that it was checked in the “manage buttons” settings.

Anyways, if you read the part where I apologized in my supposedly-final post, I am going to explain it in detail in this post. I am sorry that you had to see this coming into your inboxes, but I had no choice but to confess to all of you right here in this PopCommunity blog.

Please keep in mind that there are going to be sensitive topics mentioned in this post, alright? Okay, here we go.

Bye.

Well guys, I don’t know what to say but this is probably going to be my last post in the blogging community, because I will be leaving it as a whole due to college preparations and family… and I posted this not only to tell you guys I’m leaving, I’m also posting it to apologize.

I’m still standing…

Hey guys and girls, well,I’m still going to be inactive from the community, the reason why I stated it was going to be my “last day” was because I was a bit frustrated and depressed. At that time my life was pulling apart with so much pressure, so I needed some time alone. Even though I’m not here I will still be with you awesomes Anyways, again I’m still with you guys, I was kind of devastated from life when I wrote my last message I know it seemed hard, that’s all I have to say, I’ll probably talk to you in the weekends or so and post again on this blog somewhere in the summer.

 

Bye Guys.

Hey guys and girls, so basically, this is my last day in the community. I really hate to say this, but I’ve been getting depression lately from grades, loneliness, and many other things in life I need to take care of. I see my GPA about to get very low, and it really can’t get any lower. I mean, none of my grades can get lower. So this is one of the main reasons I am leaving the community, and the other is college. Yes, college. I need to prepare for it, since I’m about to leave high school. It’s super important. I’m not going to shut down Cuddly’s Worlds, I’m just going to have it sit there dead. I am leaving deviantART, Discord, the game, everything in the community. I will probably communicate with you guys in the weekends or in summer vacation. I guess that’s it. I’ll see you guys in summer vacation or so, or I don’t know when I’m going to come back. For the last time, CKakaW out.

Temporary Leaving Blogging.

Hey guys and girls, I’ve got really bad news. I’m just going to post this Discord message here:

@everyone listening? Yes? No? I really hate to say this, but I don’t know how many times I’m going to say that I’m not leaving blogging. Well, unfortunately for this time, I am. I don’t even know when I’m going to come back, because I have had school problems and tests coming up. I had to study more than hang out with this community, and when I’m trying to find time to post on Cuddly’s Worlds, I notice I have a lot of due dates on homework assignments and tests, and I don’t have straight A’s, but not only school is bothering me, but my dog was very sick last week and my doctor had nothing to do with him but to put him down. I know I will always remember Gideon (his name), because he’s got all the love from us in his life, ever since I was very young (yeah, we both were very young) and I can’t forget about all the fun we’ve both had, now it feels very sad to say goodbye to a beloved friend, and this had been giving me anxiety and lowering my self-esteem. Now for one final note. I am not going to shut down Cuddly’s Worlds, I am going to have it sit there dead. I will still be on the community, but less active. I am not going to Discord very often, I am not going to post drawings on deviantART very often, and so on. I really will miss you guys too when I’m off the community because you are all so awesome. I will probably be back to blogging at Christmas break or so, and again, I am going to miss you all and your awesomeness in the community. This is CKakaW, signing off probably for the last time.

I’ll be back, everyone.

Cuddly’s Review of Worlds/New Name for Blog

Hey guys and girls! After a lot of weeks of testing and school, I’m quite sure I can post some, anyways, let’s get to the post.

In this post, I’m going to make my own review of Worlds, which has some good and bad things about it, so sit back, relax, and enjoy.

Let’s start with the negative parts of the game.

Your Avatar’s look does not get transferred from the classic Pop to Worlds.

A few weeks ago in May the 23rd, Worlds finally came out and I got so excited. When I got home from school that day, I went to the website, waited for the long loading to stop, typed in my username and password, and here he was…

When I first saw him, I thought, “hey, this isn’t Cuddly…” Yeah, it’s really weird.

So, as you can see, when you log in your account, your avatar’s exact appearance does not get transferred to the new game, so you have to get a completely new look, unless hopefully the creators add new things. (They still haven’t, though. 😦 )

The game is pretty laggy and can crash sometimes.

Alright, here’s Crisis Caverns, I’m gonna explore, wow this place is- WHAT IN THE WORLD, DISCONNECTED?!!! 😡

(picture coming soon)

My Internet is working, and they say I’m disconnected? So, about this, you can get this message randomly just because it’s pretty buggy or it’s getting strained from the traffic. *rolls eyes*

Alright, I’ve logged in and I’m in Home Island again, gonna go for a swim…

…and he’s not moving. Perfect. 😦

I was kinda annoyed when I saw this, so I had to refresh the page to resolve this mess.

When playing the game, you can see your avatar all white and bald, let’s call him Bleachy Boy.

I recently saw people saying that there was some “Bleachy Boy” in the game, which kinda seemed like the Afro Guy of the game, right? (Thanks Tareloin for the image! 🙂 )

 

Luckily, the creators were contacted about the Bleachy Boy glitch and it was finally fixed, hopefully we won’t see this again, so I type #StopBleachyBoy2017! 😎

When moving your character, it’s not as smooth as the classic Pop.

Yeah, all I can say is that the character can move clumsily and it’s difficult to control them. Yeah, he’s just kicking the ground, moving weirdly like a lil’ kid.

There are a lot of negative parts of Worlds, and they are so freaking sick. Geez! Anyways, let’s move on to the positive parts…

When you log in, you have a house and you get to customize it!

Now, your house is on Home Island when you first log in, and it’s on the right on top of that hill with Cliff Horsebuff next to your house. Ahh, there it is!

…and let’s go inside! Ahh, it looks perfect.

Now, inside the house, you can just customize the house with furniture, decorations, anything you like! So, lemme put this Cars 3 Poster on that wall (You guys excited for that movie? 🙂 )

And right now I don’t have any furniture in this house yet, but there’s a shop button in the Decor Tab, when you click on that, you can just click on the tabs and buy things for your house!

I’m gonna take that animal tooth for 15 credits and place it upstairs between those locked doors (they’re locked for now until the creators announce it)… now I have a furniture.

And that basketball hoop and the other items that say “Membership” in a yellow button means that only members could buy the item, and I feel like I wanna put this on the negative li-

Random person from the audience: Hey, I’m a member and I can buy this!

I mean, this is negative for nonmembers like me and positive for you members. Especially this is negative for nonmembers… who can’t afford membership.

Anyways, let’s move on…

There’s a prize wheel in the left which you can spin every day and receive free credits!

Every day when you log in the game, go to Captain Scuttlebutt on the ship and spin the big wheel next to him and you will get the amount of credits on part of the wheel when it stops!

I got 75 credits today… and spent 15 of ’em on that tooth furniture.

Anyways, that’s all my negative and positive points for Worlds, here’s the summary for my Worlds review:

NEGATIVES:

1. Your avatar’s exact appearance does not get transferred to the game.
2. The game can crash and you can get annoyed.
3. Your character can become completely white colored and bald, also known as Bleachy Boy.
4. When moving your avatar, the movement is not as smooth as the classic Pop.

POSITIVES:

1. You have your own house and you can customize it.
2. There’s a credits wheel you can spin every day to get free credits.

And finally, here’s my overall rating for Worlds, it gets a

7.5/10

And that concludes my review for Worlds, I hope you all enjoyed it and if you disagree with anything I still respect you. 😉 Do you have anything you can add to my list?

And I guess… that’s all for today, CK out!  Wait! 

Before I end this post, I am going to change this blog’s name to Cuddly’s Worlds, and I probably need a new header and logo for the blog. If you guys are willing to make one for the blog, just don’t be shy, DM me on Discord and I’ll put it up when I have time to.

Anyways, we can end this post now. Cuddly out! 😉

Guess I’m doing the same.

Hey, guys.

So, as inactive as I’ve been on here, I decided I should probably leave the blog for a bit until my technology usage is at an incline. If you still want to see posts, check out my own Poptropica blog, Trusty Bear’s Poptropica Hotspot, or my personal blog, Random Vampiness.

So I guess I’ll see you guys later.

Salutations,

-Vampi-

You know what guys, I’ll stop posting for now.

Hey guys and girls, I… I have really bad news.

I have been really busy this school year dealing with my grades and communicating with my family, and other stuff, and they really kept me from getting time to make posts and update this blog. My Sophomore and Junior years are the most important years of my life to prepare for college and to go on with my life. 😦

I don’t really want to leave this community, but unfortunately I am going to stop posting on the CKPB until further notice, but I’m not shutting it down. I’m just going to take a break from posting on this blog, don’t think about crying, I’m not leaving.

Before I even press the Publish button on the button, I really want to say that, all of you in the Popcommunity are really awesome people, I mean, everyone, you are all very friendly, creative, funny, and most likely, you all are amazing. I just want to tell you all to stay awesome forever, keep up the good work. :’)

Again, guys and girls, I want to say that I am not leaving the community, I am just going to stop posting on blogs until further notice, and I’ll still be on social media. I’ll go back to posting maybe in the summer break or so (THERE’S 1 MORE MONTH YAAAAAAS)

Anyways, I hope you all stay awesome, and I wish you all good luck to the Popcommunity.

-C.K. signing off ❤
