Has anyone noticed that Gaia is...

[r a i n i i_d a i s]

Releasing a load of items? Recolors, this and that..

What about the Cash Shop items? There's been quite some items added in the past few days and week..

Spending GCash
I feel like Gaia is trying too hard for us to buy cash. With Smashblox tournaments that have us give gcash to win gold..
And mentioned above about the Cash Shop items..
I'm aware that Gaia needs money, but..

Inflation?
Flynn's Booty-- It's just adding to the inflation on the Marketplace... I'll be selling some of my items at their regular prices to try to get rid the inflation.

What do you think about it?

I like the idea of recolors, but it's a bit pricey for me. So it's something I won't invest in. Plus, I haven't seen a recolor yet I would be interested in buying.

As far as the inflation, I'm sad that the one item I wanted went from being 7-9mil to 50mil in like 2 weeks. It just makes me mad because I had enough and I waited to see if it was going to go down... and it definitely didn't go. crying

I'm holding off on questing to see if this will deflate

i understand gaia is a company as well, but i think theyre doing this to see who is loyal to the site.
recently, there has been a lot of people on gaia, looking for fights, trying to hack people, and the admin are fed up as well as us.
in order to fish out the baddies, theyre putting all these cash items out and seeing how people react, see who leave...its a big game to them

I'm not against recolors, since some are really cool. (aka rosamund), but I DO think that they are really expensive. (I mean, the last rosamund is 30$ urg)

I thought they wanted to fight the inflation, but seriously, I'm not so sure. I mean, I wanted an item that has been stuck at 3 million, but in the last month (even less) it went from 3 mil to 9mil. I can't get it anymore, and BLAH.
Seriously. I'm not sure I like where gaia is going to, and I'd like a bit more updates in the gaia shop, not the gold ones...and since we get a bunch of nice items...why are they all so expensive on GC??? The offers are not working that good to make items at 30$ ><

And the new event...I'm scared...the 'give us money' t get item, and give us 100 000 000 gold, and you might get drawn?! That is wut? And 10k to get an item for Halloween? (yeah, I did it, but I'm not sure about all the rest, seriously...)
And well the last events weren't even that nice, gah

So, yeah gaia is a company, it needs money, but...I'm not sure it still has the same values as they had before. It doesn't really feel like a game anymore, and they expect too much of us. And, not everyone HAS the money to follow up.

I get the verge boutique, but...now it'S everywhere we need money!!

And the new game? I'm not into this at all.

i don't mind helping out if people need it but the inflation on nearly everything is insane
