Realms, Social Media

Realms Deviated, Skinny Moon Rises

Hey Poptropicans!

As some of you may have noticed, a few days ago, Realms disappeared from the map! A new post on the Creators’ Blog explains what’s going on: they’re fixing a glitch. From the words of the Captain:

Never fear, Poptropicans, because all the Realms you created are safe — they’re only temporarily unavailable. In our latest update to Poptropica, a bug in the code base disabled Realms. We’re actively working on squashing this pesky bug and restoring Realms as quickly as possible. We apologize for the inconvenience and will update you as soon as we have more information.

We’re not sure when Realms will be back, but we hope it’s soon! 🙂 Better go enjoy Poptropica’s latest update (Valentine’s Photo Booth) instead – after all, look what it cost to get that up. 😛

Meanwhile on social media, Skinny Moon/Jessica (Poptropica’s social media person) recently had another spontaneous common room party, where she brought out her pink guitar! We missed it, but Poptropican tweeter Josh (@IcyStorm9) was there and shared a picture.

Speaking of Skinny Moon, I recently drew her Popsona (Poptropica persona) and shared it on Twitter and DeviantArt. Not long after seeing it, she joined DeviantArt as PopGirlJess and became a member of a couple of dA Poptropica groups, including the one the PHB uses, We-Love-Poptropica!

So if you’re a Poptropica artist (or an aspiring one), you might just see her around the DeviantArt community, especially if you post to the group We-Love-Poptropica! New members are always welcome, so if you enjoy art (whether it’s commenting or making), definitely check it out. (And visit Jessica’s dA page too, because she loves her fans!) Welcome to DeviantArt, Skinny Moon!

Stay awesome, Poptropicans. 😀

  1. Well, I don’t really like Realms that much, but it’s good that it’s coming back soon. I actually found out about the common room party 20 minutes after it started, but when I got there, she was gone. 😭 And it’s so cool that Jessica’s on DeviantArt. I look at some Poptropica drawings every once in awhile, but I won’t be joining anytime soon because I’m a TERRIBLE artist. Sorry guys. 🙁

    1. Realms is interesting, but I’d like it a lot more if they took the mining for Poptanium out of it so you could create without restrictions. 😛

      Also, you can still be part of the DeviantArt community even if you don’t want to post any art! Commenting on others’ work is a good start. 🙂

      1. Yeah, mining for Poptanium sure is annoying. They should make it like creative mode in Minecraft, where you can fly, never die, and have an infinite amount of everything. And you can choose to have Realms the same way it is now if you want.

        Oh, and I think I might eventually start commenting on DeviantArt. It might not be for awhile, though…

    2. I hardly play Realms, I am to busy exploring! LOL we (MG and me) joined dA just about last month, and it’s okay if you don’t post. Supporting others or even just requesting art is fine!

    1. Welcome! Great to see a new face around. 😀

      You may advertise your site on the PHB’s Poptropica Web Directory, but please don’t make it a habit to do so elsewhere on the PHB. Your name links to your blog, so anytime you leave a comment (which is more likely to be approved if it contributes to the discussion), people are able to check out your site if they wish by clicking your name. 😉

What's popping, Poptropicans?
