that idea is a bit unsettling.. gaia is very personal

[SnowFoxDragon]

i D I N G O

Yeah, it would be so much easier to find irl friends.

What, you can't just ask them at school? Phone? Messenger? In Real Life?

[remraily9]

Why does it feel like Gaia is trying to be like myspace? I ******** Hate Myspace! I don't really like people there and I think that if we keep going in this direction we are only going to lose the anime audience. Why are they trying so hard for all these unessassary add ons when we didn't ask or need them in the firs place. Whats wrong with staying the way we are now?

[YungMuney1611]

they would only be able to search by ur first name probally

[Lady Pyre]

I sure as hell do not want people stalking me across the internet, and I would give other people the courtesy of not doing so to them.

dramallama Gaia the alternative to the real world pirate

[the-holyred]

I would hate for that to be possible. It would make Gaia just more likely to start breeding ***** and really creepy people.

[Blue Eyed Wallflower]

This is a great idea. I hate not being able to find my real life friends on Gaia.

[HopeYouFall]

I Would Soooooooo want my friends to find me and I would love to be able to find them by there name!!!!!!

I Don't mean to beg on a poll But I need Gold really badly so if any one can donate I would really be thankful

[Sora Kitty]

I"d perfer no real names in this, if possible.
Facebook and Myspace do that; we don't need htat on Gaia too. sweatdrop

[Ashleyien]

I am thinking it's a sign that the freckles in our eyes are mirror images and when we kiss they're perfectly aligned

Gaia is not myspace. If people want to find each other they can use MySpace.

I'd never put my real name on here and I'd never look up anyone's real name. Besides would Gaia really want to deal with the possible stalking issues that could result if everyone started putting their real names on here and could be tracked.

If people want to be found by friends they should give their friends their username. There's such things as email and talking... I really don't think searching by real name is a good idea at all.

And I have to speculate that God himself did make us into corresponding shapes like puzzle pieces from the clay

No because you can tell them your username in real life and then add them on gaia besides what if someone else knew your personal details it's safer not to. besides for some people gaia is where they can get away from the real world and if they're friends in real life aren't into the same stuff they may make friends on here that do.

I agree.

[Chikara no Hikari]

[Kanilea]

No, I would not put my real name on the site, and I know all my IRL friends on here anyway.

[Bandaid Porn]

Lol, this is not MySpace of FaceBook. . . Thank Gawd!

If I put my real name in here then employers or jerks from real life could find my Gaia profile. And that's not good.
