Sticky: Ask The Admin (09/21/09)

[Darkening Flash]

********, I was way off my game today.D:

This video will get Simone out, don't know about Narumi...

Hey Lanzer, I hope you had a good weekend.

Ever since dolls started coming out en masse, Gaians have started petitions to be made into dolls. On the first page of the Petition Forum there are usually at least 4 cluttering up the forum.

I'm not ok with the fact that Gaians are having a popularity contest in trying to get to be infamous by being a doll. One is saying that she/he's spent hundreds of dollars on Gaia and so should be a doll. Another is saying that his/her Gaian fanfiction character should be a doll, effectively making that character an NPC.

It's turning into a popularity contest that is not going to end well. Are there plans for making select users into dolls, and if so, why? I feel that it is elitist in the extreme. After all, devs and admins have done so much for Gaia, why should someone who hasn't get to be that elite and recognized?

A less serious question:
Have you gotten to see Nobuo Uetmatsu and Arnie Roth's Distant Worlds: Music From Final Fantasy concert? It's quite good and I highly recommend it if you get the chance.

EDIT: The kitten purring on my neck reminded me to thank you and all the staff for your time and hard work. Thank you!

Tonight I'll be asking questions on behalf of others.

1. User Lucca Ashtear pointed out that in the old days, Gaia's servers were named after its NPCs. Some of these NPCs weren't released until much later, like Bildeau. One servername was 'Clyde'. Lucca Ashtear wants to know;

Is there now, or were there ever, plans for an [NPC] Clyde?

2. The Hatsya Fanthread wants to know this question that is very important to all her fans.

Is there a future for Hatsya, as an official NPC on Gaia?

3. The Josie Fanthread wants to ask:

Could you please tell us 3 facts about Josie that have been previously untold? We need something to discuss in the thread about Josie!

Ugh, I wasn't going to participate in this week's ATA but I had some (literally) last minute questions

Glad you decided to show. >;D

[kaykeyser]

since Im on the 2nd page Lanzer may not get me it was because my load speed was slowed down by an invite to join face book...blasted thing...
if any dev members know these, tell me.

What are your predictions for the 1st episode of this season’s heroes? Any one? Any one at all predictions?
Which Gaia staff member did you know the longest? When did you meat this person?

Did Agitha give Old man Logan a ripe nectarine?

Will Jenny McPhee be incorporated in to the plot? What do you think of doing a parody on “the Graduate” with this character?

What was your favorite lunch item in school as a kid? And what kind of lunch box did you sued to have?

Have you ever seen Ga-Ra-Ku-Ta: Mr. Stain on Junk Alley?


What is your favorite EI, MC or RIG humanoid life form? Will he or she be sun off in to a plot character?

Gaia’s NPCs (Rina, Agatha, Sam etc) are updating nicely. Do you have plans for more NPC updates?
Will NPCs continue to age? Do you think Gaia will ever see NPCs become parents and grand parents or even die of old age?

Will we ever return to being able to talk to Meredith or Leon?

Hi Gaia staff! Three questions for you tonight:

1. Aquariums will be one year old Wednesday. What do you think of it so far? Does it give you as much money as expected?
2. Last School Survival Guide soon?
3. Who is smarter, Frank or Barrett?

Thank you!
