Welcome to Gaia! ::

Ask the Staff Rules & Guidelines

1. Please keep your posts constructive.
   Posts that are overly abusive towards management, staff or other members of the community will be deleted without warning. Gaian's who are overly negative in Ask the Staff may be permanently removed from participation in this and future events.
   
   
2. One question per post.
   Please only ask one question in your post. Asking more than one question in your post may result in your post getting skipped for not following this.
   
   
3. Repeat posts will be deleted.
   Please only post your question once. Repeated posting of the same question may result in the additional posts being deleted. This is to help keep the noise in the thread down and allow questions by others to be seen.
   
   
4. Do not post support issues.
   Do not post issues regarding account bans, billing issues, warnings, and other support issues. Instead, please file a ticket about them at our Help Center. Questions about support issues may result in your post getting skipped.
   
   
5. Not all questions will be answered.
   This may occur because at present- they do not have an answer, it was already answered, because it was missed, or because the proper format was not followed in posting the question.
   
   
6. The thread may get locked periodically.
   Should the thread posts grow faster than we can handle, we may temporarily lock the thread while we catch up. We will post if the lock is because of us catching up, or due to the event being over.

Is that forum update that Lanzer mentioned here going to apply to guilds as well?

(Also thank you for the tip post button in guilds. It is handy to have.)

Features/Tickets

It has now been over 3 months since Gaia said in this linked staff alert the help center would be changing providers. It specifically states "If you have an existing ticket that has not been replied to, we are in the process of trying to import that ticket data into our new system." My question is concerning that import. What is the status of old help center tickets? Have half or so been imported? Has the import even been started? Will there be another staff alert when all the old tickets has been placed in the Zendesk system? Would we be notified if this import isn't actually possible? I understand that in the same staff alert it says "If you wish to file a new ticket regarding your situation, we suggest that you do so so that you don't have to wait on export and be any further delayed." but I did not do so, as previously said in the alert they would be imported eventually. Did I make a mistake in trusting they would be imported? I didn't want to cause trouble, as I see mods and admins complaining about duplicate tickets often. I just trusted there to be some sort of overall update or transparency in this 131+ day extra extension on way more than just my ticket. And without access to that ticket, I can't file a new one as I was in the identity verification stage.

Features
In Lake Kindred, there is a feature to delete any of your kins. However, I'm afraid
that me and others use it to accidentally delete the wrong kins, because there is
no way to undo this. Therefore, would you consider making a final delete confirmation
feature or step (like a 4-digit Lake Kindred pin code) that the user types in before deleting
any kin? This will greatly reduce the chance of accidentally delete any kin.

features: navbar

could you please return the HOME button back to the navbar it was a staple of gaia for so long and then basically one day it was gone. due to old management. many users still miss it and the script for it don't always load leaving us minus the home page nav button. it would be nice to restore that button so it looks like it did years ago when the staff truly cared about the community
you guys also used to have a community button that lead to special announcements. while its not so important to have that one back i would hope that someday gaia considers that too. its where the forum button is now
just hoping to see a little bit more of the old gaia return thats all

features: guilds
could we please get the recommend guild button back? we used to have it and after a while of searching online i found an old pic of what it looked like



i also took a screenshot of where im a crew member and after doing inspect element i found you do have room to put this back and theres still plenty of room for another button beyond that if you wanted it
granted im using a script that somewhat rearranged the buttons but it still shows that its possible to do

moderator nav bar


inspection area on opera browser


i blacked out certain details of the guild because i did not have the captains permission to use any screenshots but i left some details in place so you could tell its the navbar area
