Current Issues
Many Loading issues
Many users are reporting that Towns, are not working on the new version, This is the same for many users, there is no current walk around but if I find info or a pattern I will post the info here. This is not happening to all users, only some. If you are having issues make sure to fill in a glitch report forum and post them in this thread. A glitch report forum can be found on post four, make sure to read all possible workarounds first.

Lanzor's work Diary
The bigger reason for me to go was to talk to the people who worked on Sun Microsystem's game server called Project Darkstar. A cool name for a project that won't really see be mentioned a lot, because it'll run underneath game systems to handle communication. Kind of like our web servers, if it runs well, things are fast and they won't lag or crash. Once Darkstar is working properly, then everything else on Gaia will use this server, and Gaia Towns won't have trouble loading up half the time. I was also there to talk to other people that we might work with, for mini games and so forth.
Random towns breaking
Some random towns will not load, a list would not help because they seam to change. For example, many users can not goto town X all day but they can go to town Y. The next day they can go to town X but now they cant go to town Z.
"." in name causing issues
If you have a "." in your name, you are unable to talk in GAIA towns. Only solution is to change your name
"%" sign glitch
If you type % by itself while you are in a town (not station) you will get random text appearing... walk around? dont use %.
UPDATE: Now you just get random space

Please dont just post them here, please email them the email specified. The developers who need that info may not come to this thread.
"Guest" Avitars all over towns
Right now only some AVI's load in town, it is normal right now to see many black shadowed AVI's.
UPDATE: Not a issue, for info look

Empty housing areas in towns
Just gonna add a note here saying that every town has two or three empty areas, this is supposed to be like this. Those lots are saved for things that will be released later... a rumor says guild homes may be one of those things... but that is only a rumor...
