HOLY GUACOMOLE BEARVILLE IS NOT CLOSING I REPEAT BEARVILLE IS NOT CLOSING (sort of...)

CHECK YOUR EMAILS LADIES AND GENTLEMAN AND IF YOU'RE TOO LAZY THEN HERE IS WHAT THEY SENT:

OMG I GOT THAT TOO!! I'm really excited but I'm worried that Bearville will never be the same! They also mention that BABW's are not printing Bearville Certificates with the codes on them now D: Thanks for posting <3

im excited to see the new bearville too, hopefully it's not something like where all you do is play bear games :/

goCards posted this on the other thread for bv. I guess it's good that it's not closing, but I probably won't play the new bearville.

To be honest, I'm pretty sure they aren't making a new bearville virtual world. It's probably just going to be a site with games and videos on it...not a virtual world like what we have now.

Ergh, it's taken them so long for them to revive BV.. I doubt I'll play the new version though since I've completely quit BV and I'm too busy anyway. Dx

No wonder they brought in the rare items!

The new one isn't even virtual! D:

I posted this email, yes it's closing

It is closing and all items and everything you own will be deleted. Trust me I asked them.

update, i thought this would help out with us visualising the new bearville, this is what bearville sent me:

We are working to ensure that Build-A-Bear offers a variety of long-term
opportunities for fun, entertainment and learning. We are excited about the
launch of Build-A-Bear, “Play” and hope that you will join us on our
journey to develop a new, more interactive and special world.

While it will not duplicate the original Bearville, and your accounts will
not transfer but as of now, it will be a mix of games, videos and some
exciting things that we can’t talk about yet as they are still being
developed. We believe that it will capture the spirit of this special place
for guests and their furry friends.

omg that sounds so stupid..................... why do they have to shut it down lol.......................................... i hate them

It doesn't sound like it's still going to be a virtual world. It sounds so boring.

I received the email as well. Not too satisfied with this news.

it sounds like a thing for 2  year olds xD

I didn't think it was going to be another virtual world anyways. Regardless of what it was going to be, I'm not going to play on it/with it. Who knows what they were thinking, but bv hasn't always been what it always was, I mean some people just only care about rares and there's no updates, so I guess they had to do something.

it is right: it is still closing down and there will NOT be another virtual world that will replace bearville. Just the boring little games.

Bearville will shut down and they will create other game
