Welcome to Gaia! :: Ask the admin (04/21/08)

Yeah! There's no section of black hair draped over one eye!

*protests*

Dear Lanzer,

I have been meaning to ask these questions for a while now. But due to the 9-hour difference, it's been really hard to do so and still be able to focus on school (since these threads are made at 3:21 AM Central European Time). As a result, my questions keep piling. Though, I will ask the four questions (out of my hundred...literally) to which I've been dying to get an answer (not literally this time).

However, before I ask my questions, let me just say that, despite the Gaia population's negative reaction to MTV as a sponsor, I really like what Gaia has done, as a result of this partnership. I mean, I like Virtual Hollywood (when I would never actually set a foot on Hollywood grounds myself), along with many of the items that have come about. In fact, I've practically learned to love Sunset Couture (by the way, when are the items for Sunset Couture's April update going to be released?). I've been a Gaian member since 2004, and I can definitely see the changes that Gaia has made. It runs more smoothly than it did four years ago. And the layout is also very beautiful. So, with that said, let me proceed to my questions:


1. I know this is somewhat late, but what exactly is Rosalie's (Ian, Louie, and Gino's mother) last name? Is it Von Helson, Gambino, or Von Helson-Gambino (or vice versa)?

2. Juno posted an entry in her journal (for which I have provided a link) in regards to item updates on August 31, 2007. She said that there was a specific schedule in which the updates were released. She also went on to say that this schedule had been interrupted because the artists in charge became involved in other projects. So, Lanzer, do you know if that schedule has been picked up again? More specifically (and importantly), do you know if there will be a housing update any time soon?

3. Also, Lanzer, do you know when the "Evolving Items Profile Page" (mentioned by [NPC] Dr. Singh and Timmy in "Evolving Item Report: Fausto`s Bottle is Changing!" on November 12, 2007 in the Announcements forum) will be released to the Gaian public?

4. Finally, Will there be any aquatic evolving items in the (hopefully near) future?



Also, I have a few additional comments/requests:

1. Could you thank Juno (or whoever designed the envelopes this year) for that design? It's so beautiful. And cute. I think I might save them this year.

2. Also, I really like the Gaia Homes and Gaia Cars. They are "an extension of to customizing [our] experience here on Gaia" (as stated by kaia9 in "Gaia Homes are here!" in reference to Gaia Homes on March 3, 2005 in the Announcements forum). I want to thank everyone involved in their production.

3. (Oh, and I know this isn't the radio, but I'd still like to give a shoutout to my brother, Daniel Green, also a dedicated Gaia member. xd )

4. I'm quite sorry for this long post. I had to disturb my sleeping pattern just to post this message. So, I figured, I might as well make it count, right?

It'd be hilarious if it was Timmy. Oh, the outrage. rofl

i like smashville and all the fairly flat and simple ones too =) the changing ones can be fun, but sometimes they take away from the fighting. i mostly like the simple ones because it's easy to see what's going on, though. for this same reason i have beef with the soul calibur series. as much as i love the gameplay and character designs (any fighting game with weapons gets a big plus in my book) it can get really hard to differentiate between the characters and the backgrounds. on most stages the colors are just too similar. end rant!
