Steps To Keep Your Wizard101/Pirate101 Account

Hi there,

So there's been a lot of talk around the community about bannings due to bad language, cheats and whatever else is against Wizard101 & Pirate101's terms of use. I think it's silly that there are people who blame Kingsisle for being banned for doing something against Kingsisle's terms of use. I joined the game about six years ago and I remember reading the terms of use and I knew not to go against it if I wanted to keep my wizard (and now pirate). I'm a blogger and I love making posts about Kingsisle's amazing games! There are many steps you can take to keep your account.. I decided I'm going to share them with you today so you know that if you blame Kingsisle for your account banning or muting, it's not really their fault.. Here's the few steps you should follow if you want to keep your account.

1. Read Kingsisle's Terms of Use: One way as I mentioned above, is to look at Kingsisle's Terms of Use. This step is important and when you created your Wizard or Pirate, you should have noticed it. 
2. Follow The Rules: There are many rules on Wizard101 and Pirate101. A few that have been broken by players are: Profanity and Bullying. These rules are not new, it's a new year but the rules have been in place since you created your account. I'm sure by now, you've had friends banned because they broke the rules numerous times. Don't get upset at Kingsisle if you're banned because of this reason. You should know by now that you shouldn't break Kingsisle's Rules. I want everyone reading to stay, I'm just trying to warn you.
3. Remember: Please don't forget the rules when you start playing. We all know Wizard101 and Pirate101 are fun (best games ever)! Remember the rules so your account isn't banned. I'm not trying to be rude to anyone, I just want you to know that I know to keep my account safe by following the rules. I don't want my account banned. I'm not perfect. I'm human, just like you. It's hard to remember sometimes, so keep this in mind. Do I want to keep my account? I'm sure if you're reading this post, the answer is YES!! 

The steps listed above are easy steps to follow if you want to keep your account. You also have to stay safe on the game, so don't forget Online Safety! Thank you for reading this blog post. If you want to share anything with anyone, just comment below. Remember that I'm not trying to be rude to anyone that was banned.. I'm trying to warn anyone that might be banned and blame Kingsisle for their mistake.

How Long Is Too Long?

Ahoy Pirates!

Before you get excited, you need to know that I'm not returning just yet! I want to make a blog post today about something that many of you pirates have been talking about. It's been nearly two years since Pirate101 has had a new world update. I've leveled my witchdoctor, Edward, to level 65, leveled all of my companions to level 65 and even went to many NXP events to raise my nautical level to level 65 in hopes that I'd be prepared for the next world. My witchdoctor is ready for the next world but it doesn't seem Pirate101 is ready for the next world..

Pirate101 released two new worlds to the test realm in Spring 2013, which was nearly two years ago! I know it seems like it's been awhile, but the two worlds were made to make sure we had plenty to before the next world. I believe Wizard101 doesn't even compare to Pirate101 in terms of graphics, storyline and voiceovers. I think that it takes a lot more to make Pirate101, especially since Pirate101 has so many more details to the game. Pirate101 does have to make new worlds: spells, ships, companions, skyways, storylines, hiring voice actors, sounds, music and so many more things that they have to do. There are more details in Pirate101 than Wizard101. Wizard101 is a world that many of us came from and we're used to the release of many worlds at a certain time. Marleybone and Aquila are two worlds that I love and when I leveled through them, I knew they spent a lot of time on them!

I believe Pirate101 is an amazing game and they have something very special planned for us, but we need to give them time to make it for us. They can't make it in seven days because they are only human, but it's amazing that anyone could make something like this game at all! I've been a fan of Pirate101 since their first teaser in April 2012! If it takes too long for you, play Wizard101. They have a lot of worlds releasing (maybe too much at one time), but I know I'm catching up on Wizard101 while Pirate101 is working on the game. I'm going to play it again when they release their new world or worlds. I think all of the small Pirate101 updates are good, and will help us. I want a new world, but I'm going to wait for it. Take your time, Kingsisle! I'm always a fan of your games and can't wait to see what you have planned for us! :D To answer my question above.. I don't think it's been too long, the only way it would be too long is if they wasn't KI!

P.S. Thank you for the fun events (KI LIVE)!

Nativity Of Jesus (Christmas Songs)

Hi there,

It looks like I didn't get to post as many Christmas songs as I wanted to this year. I decided to make one last post (other than tomorrow) of a few of my favorite Christmas songs. :D I am sad I couldn't post 25 days of Christmas songs this year, but that doesn't mean in the future I'll post it again. I think I need a fresh start and I will get that after my break starting in the year 2015 *tries to make that sound futuristic*. :P Anyways... CHRISTMAS! I can't believe it's already Christmas Eve. I mean... I remember talking about Christmas being so far away in July and it's already December 24th, 2014! AH! I'm so excited for Christmas this year and I am thankful for many things. :) *** Warning, if you don't believe in the Birth of Jesus, please stop reading. If you want to read, please do and I hope you have a great day and/or Christmas tomorrow! :) *** I never forget the true meaning of Christmas which is Jesus being born on Christmas (or whenever he was born) but a lot of people celebrate His Birth on the 25th of December. I know there are some who don't believe in this story but I do, and I feel like celebrating by posting a few songs that show parts of the story about his Birth. :D

 

Thank you for listening to the songs today. I really enjoy the first video I posted on this blog because it shows how many people can come together just for Jesus. :) Thank you for listening. I'll have a post tomorrow with more of my favorite Christmas songs. I hope you all have a great Christmas Eve and please don't eat too many cookies like I am tonight. :D Merry Christmas!!!! :D
