* CashCowFranchise: Many believe that everything was better back in the days where you only had to have a Webkinz, and you could do anything on the site, as opposed to paying extra just to get everything.
** A lot have also protested "e-points", the main complaint being that, again, you're just paying more for unnecessary things.

* FandomLifeCycle: In the TurnOfTheMillennium, the fandom reached Stage 4, popular on par with ''VideoGame/ClubPenguin'', and had lots of schoolchildren buying plushies just to keep playing the game. By the start of TheNewTens, it began slowing slipping back to Stage 2, and by the mid-10s, Stage 1, where only a few people were still enjoying ''Webkinz''. Nowadays, many people today treat ''Webkinz'' as a 2000s fad.
