January 14th
In response to last week's GCD Bee Suit Extermination, Lanzer and several artists showed up today for Ask The Admin, wearing Bee Movie Suits! A great time was had by all; the devs were pretty good sports about it overall. whee
We have got our hands full with a number of new projects, and the feature to change your looks through a store had been in the back burner for a long time. ToT For the time being, things like re-working your avatar will still be free.
And speaking of new features, we are finishing up on a new quest. Stay tuned for details!

kirby played those, and i enjoyed watching them! although i sometimes get a little dizzy from the sudden movements in fps games :/ I get so sick when I'm playing portal. So much movement. X_Xi played portal, and wussed out in the end. so your-father's-belt finished the game for me, hehehe.
it's kind of 50/50 with fps games for me. sometimes i get super dizzy and sometimes i don't. i play a lot of team fortress 2 with my friends and i can play that for hours without any ill side-effects. i watched fulltimefailure play gears of war and i got queasy in half an hour :/
haha, we love the work that valve does so much that we bought some posters from team fortress 2 and portal. i've got aperture science posters on my walls now! and i've got a pair of fuzzy companion cubes to keep me company in my cubicle~!I envy you. I wanted that plush so badly but by the time I could get one they were $100. crying
And now the fuzzy dice are sold out.it was a christmas pressie from the kirby. but hopefully there'll be new companion cube plushies somewhere down the line. i've been thinking on trying to make one myself either from knitting or needle felting, heh.
hehhe, i still want to make a portal themed bento lunch...but haven't really thought it through yet.
i actually want to try replicating the sentry gun from team fortress 2 sometime. it'd be a great addition to my cubicle...especially if i can get it to shoot nerf ammo >:3
Yes, Battle system is on-track for this year. It ain't no full blown MMORPG but we are putting more and more work to making it great. The whole thing still runs within flash!
We wanted to get Ian involved in another storyline so that's still being discussed. ^^;;;
I've had kidney but not stones. smile
Spork! <3
In one of Qixter's posts, he mentioned that there is a fear ring. Are there going to be other rings that are based off emotions? XDi'm not sure! kirby and i finished our list of rings and they were passed onto someone else. right now kirby and i are mainly working on environment effects for battle and misc things on gaia
Hello, Lanzer!
I know I'm excited. I hope you guys dont dissapoint. whee
Anyway, I have question; how did you feel about the whole beesuit 'event' ?I have a sudden urge for honey. smile
yeah, i wished i had kept it up. first was the holiday break so there wasn't an AtA. and then i caught the flu!
i can't think of any i don't like. i think it's because i know how hard it is to make them...and i don't wanna be unfair to the artists who made then crying
There will definitely be more items but we're still thinking through the right schedule. For now schedules will be either one week or two weeks between each evolution.
Definitely. They will evolve the same way as the first gen items.
Fanime, AX, Otakon for sure, and the rest are still being discussed. DJ Helsing will be posting details ASAP. wink
kirby played those, and i enjoyed watching them! although i sometimes get a little dizzy from the sudden movements in fps games :/ Did it freak the hell out of you? eek
OMG, I get so scared by it but I love it at the same time. Who knew you could do so much with a main character who never speaks.i loved the story, and i want to see more! i like to watch a lot of games, especially the ones i can't play. bioshock was the latest one after half-life 2. kirby made me play bioshock in the beginning but it was too nerve-wracking for me so i let someone else take over my saved game, hahaha.
We're really close! This thursday we'll be sitting down to find the winner. We'll announce soon after that.
Haloo. x3 Feeling better this week? 3nodding i feel better, thanks muchly! but now i have to schedule an appointment to get my WISDOM TEETH taken out! gonk gonk gonk
i got a copy of my xray, and my wisdom teeth are growing out horizontally...so it's putting pressure to the rest of my teeth...blah.i've got to get my wisdom teeth out at the end of the semester...stupid small mouth. -_-yeah, ditto on that. my teeth are all crowded now :/
kirby and your-father's-belt are threatening to take pictures of me looking like a chipmunk after i get the procedure done. i'm going to have to hide from them! gonk
We're gonna make the Gaia Towns and flash environments better, but first we want to make Gaia "easier to use". It's been 4 years and new users are still asking "what do I do on Gaia?"... We want to fix the basics so Gaia ain't so "broken" in terms of usability. We also have a cool forum feature being planned, Guilds are going to be improved, Battle is coming out, and more (maybe much more) casual games are coming!
Which makes me curious now, what kind of music plays over the airways while everyone is working? Hopefully not Elevator Music 24/7.mostly people listen with their headphones, although l0cke will occassionally play some music or some video he finds online, hehehe.
i like to listen to movies when i'm working. the constant beat in songs makes me feel too antsy whereas dialogue in a movie doesn't.Hmm, I'm going to have to try that next time when I sit down and work on a paper. Thanks for the answer! heart I've been picking up some books on tape as of late as well...they add something different to the ear arsenal.
Which makes me curious now, what kind of music plays over the airways while everyone is working? Hopefully not Elevator Music 24/7.Everyone listens to tons of different things. My jams consist of the soundtracks and other stuff on my ipod and pandora smile
i saw it and i loved it! i'm a big fan of costume design!@ Spork - INORITE??? 4laugh Too bad i'm a bit of a purist and hated that the beggar woman's role wasn't more played out as it should have been.i never saw the original sweeney todd :/ but the costumes were beautiful. i'm a big fan of gothic and gothic lolita stuff and big dresses are always a big hit for me. i eventually want to get more victorian-esque stuff for my wardrobe if it doesn't break the bank hehehe
ILOVEYOULANZER!!!
<33
@Sporkie~ I'm a dental assistant, so advice: Eat raw pineapple for a week before you get your wisdom teeth out. There's an enzyme that prevents swelling, so it'll negate the Chipmunk effect. heartthank you for the advice! i will have to remember to take it once they schedule my appointment. the only downside is that i don't like citrus-y stuff crying
Hello! xd I would like you to meet my brother someday. His screen name is HopelessProcrastinator. Perhaps you can tell him to follow his dreams with his love of computers and to quit his job as a hardwood floor eh...I don't know what his title is really. sweatdrop He needs motivation!Hehe bring him online sometime...I'm not sure how much help I would be, I might fail at motivating him domokun Well in the meantime, perhaps question him on what his dreams are, then ask what steps would be necessary for him to achieve his goals. Figuring those kind of things out can really help clarify things and your one step closer to it, simply by thinking about it biggrin
Yeah currently there's a big queue that we've been trying to tackle, and we're still way off from the target wait time of one week.
With how fast we're growing, we must ask for more volunteers to help each other out on answering questions and inquiries. It's a long time coming but we'll have a much better system to help facilitate that. We spent so much time in making sure that every incident is dealt with, but no time to sit back and develop a system that can utilize help from the community as much as possible. That was our mistake and we'll be not only improving on handling the queues (we have many queues besides hacking/scamming) but giving better feedback responses also.
Having played many MMO's before, I understand how frustrating it is to lose items when it's not your fault. Many of us have dedicated our time in focusing on nothing but that.
i saw it and i loved it! i'm a big fan of costume design!So does that mean that we MIGHT get some Sweeney Todd inspired items in the future?oooh! maybe! i know my concepts are always inspired by the things i see or learn, and stuff like that can be easily incorporated into my work, especially if we get to design items that leans on that particular style. i know that if we brainstorm, i might not be able to help myself in drawing stuff like that, hahaha.
We're making sure that the system is solid and fast, and so far so good. We are going to actually upgrade all the game servers to a new one when everything is ready.
The raffle idea is still being hashed out. Fundamental stuff like fixing the site does come in the way, and we still want to get the current small quest out the door, but we'll work on it soon enough.
i wish i knew :/Are you a fan of Stargate?no, i probably would if i watched it, heh.
Yes we need a sexy puzzle. smile
Best B-day I've had? They're all sad... wait, except that one time when I had a cake...
Seriously I always had a great time because B-days are always an excuse for me and my friends to get together. One year I was traveling for business in Singapore during my birthday, I got to celebrate b-day in Singapore then when I got home I got to celebrate again with more friends, so it was like having two birthdays in a year. biggrin
i am a BIG fan of smash bros. i loved playing 99 stock lives with my sister against the comp in the n64 version...i would play it all day, day after day. i play a pretty mean pikachu and kirby bought a gamecube with the price hiked up real high (right after it was released) and the smash bros. game just so he could find a reason to play a game with me.
i kicked his butt >:3Personally, I am Great with Link . Like I said in 2 other posts, I would love to brawl you guys sometime, Yes Im addicted and the game isnt even out yet.now i need a wii sad
yeah, but if i'm playing smash bros. i don't want to monopolize it...which i know is going to happen once it's released, hehehe.
having smash bros. here in hq would be a bad, bad thing for me. i'm only a few feet away from the wii and the tv...if the game is here i know i'd look for any excuse to play all the time, hah.
it was kinda like that for a while with guitar hero. i've heard all the songs like fifty times.
Psh, Nobody can get pass me with (N64) Kirby and with (GameCube) Sheik and soon with (Brawl) Uber awesome ZELDA ;Dkirbyufo can play a mean kirby...he's also pretty deadly as jigglypuff, hahaha.mwahaha fear my deadly suicidal jigglypuff narcolepsy
Yes for word bump, as soon as we got the new server up and running. Dunno about poor Santa. He's pretty used to chewing on grass by now I believe.
i might go see cloverfield, looks interesting :3 dunno what to answer for the rest of your questions tho :/Cool! Thanks!
How about TV? Have you or anybody else seen Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles or American Gladiators? gonk i don't watch tv! i feel so out of the loop!
last time i used the bathroom here at work, they were still posted in the stalls (the women's restroom). hehehe
yeppers
We're thinking of having a writing arena, though there haven't been a Gaia story contest yet.
You look great, you're still exactly 23 pixels wide. biggrin
he does that to me too :/
Contacts won't be released but there will be new eye-styles for everyone to choose from! That'll happen in a month or two actually. Although they aren't the "equip anytime" feature that you requested. There are some system upgrades that we need to do since "eye replacement" isn't an option in our avatar system yet.
no, i haven't heard of this. any info on it? :3Must...educate...dev...
Veset Monastery (a Gaia Community Projects Thread)
Yes it all depends on how tight our schedules are. December was really tough. ToT
I think so, final stage should be pretty obvious.
i like both, mixing things up is always fun. although i admit that i don't really know a lot of the stuff about gaia...especially areas that isn't related to the art aspect of gaia. i can answer personal questions better since i know myself, heh.
Yeah, when spork and I were first working on the battle rings we played around with chopping up the avatar into multiple pieces to imply more animation than just basic translation/rotation/skewing. The result is pretty fun. There was a video of the mantis attacks up on one of the battle profiles for awhile. Anyway, I think they look pretty fun and we tried to go nuts (a little too nuts at times, had to tone some down >< ) pushing the character animation within the limitations.
Botters could make really big gain from word bump, so we had to disable it. Once the new server is in place, we believe we can put together some better measures. Nothing can take away botting 100%, but there are things that can limit the gain to a reasonable amount. Sorry for the delays!
That's not official yet, I do hope that we would!
i love AtA, gives me an excuse to take a break from work, hehehe.You should take more breaks. heart
And, if you get a Wii, you should give me your friend code. ninja heart
I still haven't forgotten the jelly bellies! hearti'll let you guys know once we get a wii. i really wanted to get kirby one this christmas but none of the stores had them in stock crying
Yeah astronomy would be fun. What about Science or academic related forums? I'm one of those strange kids at school which like physics, and I would hang out in a forum if there's one. smile
Battle system might not be dial-up friendly because it's running off a flash client, meaning that every other player/area you see are being downloaded on the spot, instead of something like a typical game client that ask for a big download on the spot. The plus is that you can play it anywhere, the down side is that it's bandwidth intensive. sad There might be a client to be released afterwards that will be dial-up friendly though. Hard to say.
Giant chessboard? I thought that was planned. Need to check to see if plans were changed.
:O Oh no, need to check back with the team on this old bug. Thanks for the heads up.
I most likely will watch Cloverfield, I gotta know what the heck happens in that movie.
I hope zombie skins come back as well, I would totally go zombie over vamp. domokun domokun
hrmm....Ninja Robots or Pirate Zombies...I'm rootin for the zombies, but they are the underdog in thice scenerio...I mean cmon...precision and silence...too deadly.
Oh no! Another bug! This one is related to the specific item. I'll bug Juno about it. :O
i saw the thread about people not liking the bee-suits and wanting to do something about them. but they hadn't specified how. then eventually i kept getting PMs about getting gifts with bee quotes, hehehe. eventually i caught on and just decided on wearing one, since people took the time to send them to me, y'kno?
It's a personal goal of mine to make Gaia a cohesive world. We're thinking of a good way to link all our different areas together right now, and yes the world map will become one of the main ways to navigate around the site, with lots of cool features.
Thanks for hanging out everyone, see you all next week!

Hey Lanzer, I've got a question.
I was reading through the old DI's and ran across this:
Do you really still plan to remove the gender change option, or is it going to be replaced?
I was reading through the old DI's and ran across this:
Quote:
Brief Summary: Changing gender is and has always been a temporary addition, not a permanent one. It will never be free.
Originally, the ability to change genders was created in response to a glitch that changed member's gender when they did not want it to be changed. The cost was put in place to prevent users from constantly changing genders and abusing this feature. Changing genders also affects many features and is taxing on the site. The ability to change gender is not intended to be permanent, and will eventually be removed.

Hi Lanzer!
I've been wanting to ask this for a long time and keep missing ask the admin. I have a question regarding the customer service of Gaia. The site seems intent of increasing the appeal to all users, with new and better content. However, there seems to be a serious lack of staffing for all inquiries that are sent via "contact us". The response states to expect to wait a week for a response, but even after two weeks there isn't even so much as a automated message saying that the e-mail was received or even read. How do you expect users to receive any status information on things like hacking reports?
I understand that Gaia has hundreds of thousands of users. But how long should users
reasonably expect to wait for any response? Having people say 6-12 months to have any action taken about account and hacking issues seems to exceed reasonable expectations. Is legal action the only way to get results, like the recent incident that made the news? Are there any plans to expand the amount of people who can investigate and pass judgement on hacking reports?
I know there are plenty of threads and people who have never received any word on their hacking reports and there's a vast amount of disappointment over items they will never see again. A good site isn't just about the amount of shiny things that are offered but also how well the users are treated.

XD My questions were ignored.
I have a different question. Is it true that some of the Gaia Scout edits are still posted around the office and bathrooms, or have they been taken down by now? :3

Lanzer, is there any possibility there will be a writing contest for a future GAIA plotline?

Edmund still asks me for quest items for a quest that was long since canceled (the blood drop brooch/ orchid brooch quest.) Please arrange it so he stops doing this. XD

I just have one question for you tonight lanzer.
Do you think we might get an Eyewear Store this year? Perhaps users could buy Glasses and Shades with their gold, and there could be an ink Exchange for contact lens?
I know users have wanted the leaked Novelty Contact Lens for a long time, and users would love to change their eye color without deleting your avatar, and also users have been requesting multi colored eyes for a long time, so such a store and exchange would make ideas such as these possible.
Any chance on such a store as this?

Has anyone on Gaia Staff read up on Vesetism, the faux religion built up around Gaian item descriptions? If so, do you have any comments on it?

two quick questions.
1. Are you guys ever gonna bring back monthly hints for the collectables?
2. Are the tama's basket and corallus egg ever gonna get a third stage of evolution or are Gaia's first evolving items already at complete evolution?

I think so, final stage should be pretty obvious.

1. Someone raised some questions about battle avs, which got me thinking.... Will the sprite size there be exactly the same as in towns or bigger? Have you guys considered minor BODY animations in battle- such as our characters pointing to the target when they cast a spell? And why don't characters in Towns move anything but their feet?

Hey Lanzer
* Has there been any progress on Word Bump?
* What are you going to do about the Bachelor Credits?
* Are you going to fix the freezing and empty boxes because I've heard it has nothing to do with the botting?
* Are you going to add to the dictionary on Word Bump ?
* Why haven't there been any updates about Word Bump?
* Botting is everywhere, so why is word bump the only one affected?

Well met, sirs and madams. 3nodding
Lanzer: whilst randomly surfing, I came across your profile, and, I was rather chuffed to see "astronomy" amongst your interests. ^^ With that said, do you see a science forum being implemented at some point in the future?
And, will the iconic teddy bear ever make an appearance as a Gaian item? heart

Hi Lanzer! Been trying to catch you for2 months but I kept missing it! gonk
Q#1. Will the battle system be dial-up friendly?
-Cinemas aren't, through no fault of gaia...it's just a vid-loading thing.
Q#2. Will Gaia ever go to the stars? Let's use our portal! *cough* we miss the UFOs *cough*
Q#3. Will we ever get a giant chess board to play with, or fields in towns for soccer or basketball?

Giant chessboard? I thought that was planned. Need to check to see if plans were changed.

Quick question:
For users who still have a period in their user name, the word bubbles in towns, cinema, etc. don't show up. I think this has been asked before but, is this ever going to get fixed?

1) Are you guys going to see Cloverfield? How about Meet the Spartans? They have a dance off versus the Immortals in it! biggrin
/most of the questions sporkii skipped, fulltimefailure also skipped./
7) Will Zombie skin make a comeback? Perhaps use the Vial of Unknown Liquid as the equip/uneqip and make it a DC or Pink Box rare?
8 ) Who would in a fight: Ninja Robots or Pirate Zombies?
Thanks for answering any and all questions! 3nodding

GREEN GOO.It's a growing issue, and after about more than half a year, I think, I am still unable to wear my gift of the godess in its laurels pose without the infernal green goo. IS ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT THE GREEN GOO? gonk

Now that I've read through the ENTIRE thread I'll ask my question. Will the world map ever find its way back into mainstream gaia?
It seems like it doesn't exist anymore, I didn't even know Halloween Town was on there! gonk
