i am with u all the way

Dear Lanzer and staff,

Recently, a guild of mine called “Lost and Found Zomg”, has been harassed to say the least. The guild “zOMG Hide N Seekz Elite” has claimed that we are “copyright infringing” on the game of Hide & Seek in Zomg when our main purpose is to not just have H & S like them but to incorporate other games into zOMG. This meaningless thing has turned into a squabble of sorts and on the first day of my guild’s creation. I wish for the CB topic I’d created as the basis for my guild to be deleted. But that’s not all, because they claim that we were the ones who started this fight but really it takes two to start a fight and they did not have the tolerance to ignore my “comment” they claimed set them off. Honestly, it’s just Hide & Seek and they’re the ones making a big enough of a deal out of it by claiming that they “created” Hide & Seek and it’s rules. People can just come up with the same ideas and unknowingly have the same rules as them since there’s no real other way to play Hide & Seek in zOMG; we’d like to include Hide & Seek as one of the many games our guild will incorporate and just credit this guild instead of them accusing us of many things we unwittingly did to set them off.
Sincerely,

i am with u all the way

P.S.: the CB topic and the source of all our problems

I know the guy who made that guild. Wow, that is just not right, like they had the idea first. rolleyes

I'm gonna put this in before this gets buried under layers and layers of fluff.

At Otakon 2K9, you guys told us some of the "high priority" things on Gaia that most of the developers and coders were working on, what with Towns getting an eventual zOMG-engine conversion and maybe toying with the idea of houses being put in Durem and Aekea. Also there was talk about Rallys, vJs and such, but still, I think there's still a bit of confusion among my friends at the SCAS, so I want to bring it down to brass tacks.

Which Gaia development projects are TRULY the highest priority over there right now? Is it the Towns conversion? Some new interactivity games? The connections with Facebook? What?

...

...

Also, any info on that Pikachu I gave you five years ago is much appreciated.

I'm so curious about what movie you're talking about Lanzer....

I have an idea of what the movie may have been! I'm thinking the movie Lanzer watched rhymes with "slight." ;>.>

In the announcement it said "You can add customizable quick links to the footer to get you to your favorite stuff instantly," how customizable will this be?

It's fully customizable right now. Just click the + button near the Quick Links to add a new Quick Link to the page you're on at the time. You can also remove Quick Links from your footer by clicking the Edit button. I just wish you could re-order them...

0.can you add a feature that makes a preview picture thing as part of trades to help us artist sell art better and prevent disputes?????


1.can you make a feature that allows an optional binding of an item(s) to you with a seperate password???
so that hackers cant steal them from you as easy killing the motavation for hackers to want to steal from you or at the very least make it harder

What would be a cool and upgraded idea to that thought would be the ability to trade someone an item and sort of "soul bound to yourself" at the same time. By this I mean you could 'lend' someone an item by sending a trade where it locks the item to that user so they can only trade it back to your account.

This has 2 purposes. For people who store their valuables on a different account, it would possibly make it harder to hack and also, it would allow us to lend items to people.

I just think it might be a neat idea as people do want to lend their friends items, but don't know if they can trust them, etc.

3.and can you do the neopets thing and make a ton of differnt interactive
flash games *wiether 1 or more player* that people could play for reasonable
amounts of gold so to help balence out the marketplace inflation??and grant
items based off skill versers time consumption or money alone..(ive played
all the games of neopets there generaly basic but well drawn games ), ones that
utilized the avatar system to provide sprites would be great.
*as seen here, a customiseable battle robot game*



4.a way to change the outward apperence of the gaiahomes to maximise the customability.*and kill monotomy of the towns*

5.will there be more user made item contests????if you had more I feel your users would be more happy.even if you made them a 3rd collectable item to help the costs then people will know they get the items they really want.


5.what if you sold real items, giveing out a little gaia cash with the purchse
to intice more people to buy real items, and make more plushies of all
the pouplar pets.or asked gaians what sort of real merchindise they want?

6. who in gaia staff has that scarf obession~!??, theres a scarf for everything....even beacon...id like more capes *a black and light blue trim
to match me would be great and flame hakama. (or a recolor of the old flame
pants to at least have the nice colors but the same old shape i love)*

WOAH! That Robo Games looks super awesome! DEFINITELY WANTZ! As long it's not that rock paper scissors bull poop I'll be happy! Gaia Robo Fighting would be epic! I'd be playing that for a loooong time. I hardly touch any other game in the tabs :/

Only if they have neko goddess parts/robot but yes yes me wantie.... whee

Have You Ever Thought About Making Fat Avatars? Like For The People That Feel Left Out On Gaia! (Like Me.) And Not Just The Fatty Item.
