They also seem to be more active at night, which doesn't really work for different time zones.

I'm appreciative they are doing anything at all, though it's clear whatever managers they had didn't want us to have an event at all. By night...do you mean they are doing this in their off hours? As in, unpaid hours?

I think around 7 pm or so, maybe?

So much on Gaia seems to mostly benefit people on California time, unfortunately.

I wouldn't actually mind a forum specific spambot, with all the items they have to grant this time.

Hopefully these will become available in Loyal's Bazaar at some point, either through direct purchase or in a RIG. To be honest, none of them really appeal to me as I rarely have need of a swimsuit look but I understand that some of them- the tops in particular- are useful for layering.

God I want the icy set or the lavender set. :<

"Though the brightness of the sun has drifted far away...

I'm just highly amused I got a 'detention' slip aka an item gift from one of the NPCs sometime early this morning/late last night and I haven't been in that forum but maybe 3 times since it opened? lol

Tomorrow holds the sunlight of a brand new day for me..."

I'd rather see them in the regular gold shops, since they're recolours of items already in the shops (Gambino Outfitters), and some people don't have access to LB.

Well, they work 9 to 5 jobs, and the company is based in California...so I think it would be unfair to ask them to do things manually after office hours. It's for the most part a tiny company (despite the fact it should be bigger), and it sounds like the kind staff running the NPCs are doing this on their own time, not company time.

the mp prices of those items really speak to how flipping rare it is to be bestowed one by the NPC accounts neutral great event!

Did this event even happen? Did I miss the pool party? rofl

i think it's taking a long time to "recieve" event items... I mean its probably more random than a random AI.npc...

Which is why I'd rather have a bot. It's too much to do manually.

I got super lucky in one of the NPC stickies. Got the whole set all at once. Not sure if the one NPC is still doing that contest, but that seems like the place to go to.

Seems like a lot of work for them. I really like the interaction too though. Maybe if it was sort of half human NPC and half bot NPC giving out the items. Perhaps have bots take over while the real people sleep?

Sounds reasonable.

I wish we could get equippable versions of the beach chairs/towels from the Beach Party Kickstart image for all avatars. The beach towels/blankets we have now are kind of small...
