Hello everyone,

Happy Gaia Anniversary! Hope you all enjoyed the event and items. Let's get started!

[152A527]

Hello everybody!

Questions:

1. Since Easter is slowly approaching, will we be seeing "HE" Robot Santa was forewarning us about at the Easter event? : O

2. What did you get for Valentine's day? Also, what is your favorite type of chocolate and what percentage and/or brand of chocolate do you prefer? I like to eat 86% Gardenelli dark chocolate.

3. On Tuesday through 7:00AM-10:00PM, are you or is anybody going to go to Ihop and get a free plate of their international house pancakes? I hope I will be able to go! : D

EDIT: Happy Anniversary! Yes, I loved both of the pairs of slippers! Thank you so much for them! ^^ Although I am curious... Who colored them and the red envelope that they both came in? o.o


Thank you! ^^

Hey, there lovely (and lovelies)! How are you all this evening?

I loved the anniversary items. (So, good job!) They made me think of sealed envelopes, so I was very happy. I even dressed my Avatar for the anniversary.

Anyway, let's get down to business, shall we? (I only have a few questions. wink )

1.) Will we be able to sell our Skittles Reward Tickets sometime soon? If so, when?

2.) When will we receive a HOUSING update?

That's all I have to ask for tonight. Thanks!

Yay for seven years biggrin

-How can you people live with yourselves after eating all those grunnies? gonk
-Do you guys like doing AtA, or is it more of an...obligation?
-So, about that SDPlus doll of Qix...it's in the works, yes? ninja (Note that I ask on unofficial behalf of a lot of curious people other than myself. xp )
-Does the poetry mentioned in the 1/28 announcement actually exist?
-NPCs...do they ever actually die, or are Gaians a race of pseudo-immortal beings?
-This one's for Lanzer specifically: Why are you wearing two sock items?

[i am with u all the way]

1. If Gaia's HQ doesn't give out tours, would it be possible to film an actual tour and post it up in the forums? We would be able to get a basic idea of how things work in HQ. ^^ That and it gives the users a chance to learn more about the staff.

2. I think that it would be possible to leave the thread for Ask the Admin unlocked for the rest of night. That way late night shift staff members could come in and answer any later questions of possible Gaians living all the way across the globe. We wouldn't be as in as much of rush to get our questions answered by you yourself every Monday at 5:00pm PST. What I'm trying to say is that once you leave, you can leave the thread open for other questions to be answered by late night shift staff members.

3. When will the Valentine's Day event start up and for how long? Does it have anything to do with the NPCs going into hiding?

4. What makes it so hard to get new sub-forums up? I'm sure that the coding for that wouldn't be too hard to do since all that we ask of is for more sub-forums (eg: Free Graphics sub-forum to pair off with the Art Freebies sub-forum, sub-forum for graphic artists, ect.).

5. Do you do anything in your free time other than working on Gaia? For instance, do the staff and you get together to play nerf gun or something like that?

What’s some thing you feel strongly about, believe in or say, that makes other people call you crazy, that you still feel committed to it?

What is your favorite 8 bit video game, board game, card game and non-sports outdoor game?

What’s Gaia HQ doing to go green?

What’s your fav. App on the I-pod or I-phone ?

[sasamiblue]

I haven’t had any questions as of resent so congrats on doing nothing questionable.

Hello Gaia staff! I think this is the first time I've participated in one of these, but I've been busy looking over Platonix's archive and am slowly catching up.

First, Happy Birthday Gaia!

The circle is a picture of what my knees looked like after I was finished. xd

I wanted to do a little bit more, but I ran out of space. :p It was created at a local street painting festival. My art skills are horrible and pretty much limited to stick figures. So I didn't want to try anything complex, but I at least put it near one of the entrances, near a restaurant with outdoor seating. I know it caught the eye of a few people walking by and I even had one lady approach to ask me directly what Gaia was.

Thinking of the anniversary, my question is about the video last week. A certain piece of editing gave me flashbacks to one of my past jobs. Is someone a fan of the FISH! video or were those 2 clips simply because of a love of the Pikes Place fish market itself?

Hi Lanzer

My question is, will we be seeing more quests for like video games coming out by any chance? Are some in the progress by any means?

[Platonix]

Happy Birthday, Gaia! whee blaugh Congrats on reaching 7 years old; that's 49 in dog years, and roughly Methuselah in website years!

[ghgvjj]

Do you have any fun plans this week?

Bring back OLD RALLY PL0x !??!?!

[i am with u all the way]

I was semi-late in my reply since I was making announcement to my guild. x3

[Saint Drogo]

Awesome, this is the first time I've ever been able to catch one of these things.

I have a question:
I've noticed that Gaia staff are showing their faces a lot more. I like being able to put a face to the pixels, so I wholeheartedly approve! Is there any chance staff could make a video about themselves and what they do? It'd make Gaia feel more community oriented, being able to put a face to the corporation. :3
But most importantly, will we ever get to see reapersun's face? gonk
