Welcome to Gaia! :: Posts By User Unknown User | Forum

I love anonymous gifting - it allows me to write silly little rhymes and give things to people and they have no idea who I am X3

I'm a lot more reserved online than I am offline, maybe it's the "permanent" aspect of writing something down that does it, that and I find it hard to express myself properly in writing XD

Yeah that's one thing that confuses me about this particular ban and makes me wonder what's truly behind it - it's just...quite an odd thing to pick out when there are arguably "much worse" on the site ^^;

I dunno whether you could class me as "pro-ban" or not. I''m not unhappy they're gone, because I simply don't like cigarettes -shrugs- Whether that is or is not a valid reason depends on whom you ask. I can certainly understand why people are saying it's quashing their freedom of expression etc, but in the end, that doesn't mean I have to agree with them.

When it all comes down to it, Gaia's going to do what they feel is necessary, sometimes it'll be advertising pushing the "necessary" aspect (I remember hearing once that we couldn't have naked avatars because of advertising, but that could easily be a rumour), sometimes it may be what's deemed "morally" acceptable for the day.

If they up and decided to change / remove my favourite item on the site, I'd probably be disappointed, but meh, what am I really going to do about it? Complain? They can still deny it in the end - it says so in the ToS. I mean, the censorship card - the whole ToS is a "censorship card / wavering of rights" XD Perhaps I'm just at the point where I don't care anymore, I come here, play games, post a little and that's about it <<

It's amusing to see the amount of flaming going on today around Gaia, especially on those who do approve of their removal, or even remotely hint at it. Guess it reminds me of why I stopped coming here so often XD

Anyway, I'm personally not unhappy to see them go, but it does seem rather...odd to be removing items after the number of years they've been out o_o Why bother even releasing them in the first place? ^^; Considering the backlash seen over the last several years for anything Gaia does, there must have been something -extremely- compelling for Gaia to remove these items. I don't believe it's just that they've grown a conscience in regard to this matter and it would have been nice to hear the truth instead of some marketing garb.

I think the thing that annoys me most is that's pretty much all anyone's talking about today XD So I think I'm going to get off.

Gah, people's rights, problem is, someone's "rights" always gets squashed. Gaia takes stuff away, people complain. Gaia brings it back, people complain. Too much PC in real life, I don't need it here too >>

I'm thoroughly looking forward to seeing what comes next X3 I'm really hoping that they'll release a few more colours of the items they've already had. A blue monarch dress would be nice XD

I would make the dishwasher unload itself <_<

There are so many item fads, I dunno what's in now, because I've been out of touch, but I remember when everyone wore the Pimpin set (I think that's what it was called XP) and everyone wanted a Chain Wallet - I can't remember what else there was, but when I was doing a lot of pixel doll orders, you could see a few items that almost everyone was wearing at one time, and then it'd change to something else.

I don't see a lot of people wearing the Timepiece as the skirt, but I think it looks quite neat ^^ I find it hard to get skirts that I like, I'm very specific - they have to be long and preferably help to balance my generally very top-heavy avatar out.

I remember dreaming that Gaia released a Cloud MC, then I got up the next day and they did! o_O I was wondering whether I managed to sleepwalk and get onto the computer in the middle of the night ^^;
