Hi there; I have a question regarding our Forum posts, more specifically our Forum History. Is there any way we could find older posts (for example, posts we've made before 2010) more easily? Because I generally can access the most recent 500 posts I've made, but any further and they seem to disappear, even when I search for them through the search function.

There seem to be a problem with our search engine bringing up posts before 2010. We will look into fixing this issue after we finish work on the summer event.

Hi! Thanks for all the updated items in the various free systems on site. I did want to let you know about an error message that has been reoccurring when you login to claim a daily item. On the last day of the week, you get a Mystery Grab Bag. When you click on the last day, an error message appears. However, the mystery grab bag is always in your inventory. I just wanted to be sure you knew it was occurring. I have a screenshot, but with apologies, I don't know how to add it here.

The bug with Daily Reward had been fixed yesterday. It should work properly to show the item rewards this weekend.

features : zomg
quests are still broken and glitched, any update on this current broken zomg feature?

We've updated the quest system and that seemed to have broken some quests in zOMG. We will be fixing this later in the week.

Ask the Staff Rules & Guidelines

1. 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.
   
   
2. Repeat posts will be deleted.
   Please only post your question once. Repeated posting of the same question multiple times on the same day may result in the additional posts being deleted or in your loss of being able to post to the thread. This is to help keep the noise in the thread down and allow questions by others to be seen.
   
   
3. 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.
   
   
4. Not all questions will be answered.
   There are a few reasons why a question might not be answered. Here are some of the most common reasons why that happens:
   
   There are questions that are asked that have been asked and answered previously and the answer given there hasn't changed, therefore we don't answer that.
   
   There are questions that we simply do not have an answer to at the moment.
   
   There are questions asked in a format other than the one that we recommend you post in.
   
   
5. 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.
   
   
6. Item suggestions and requests.
   Questions specifically asking for item requests will not be answered in ATS. They may not be responded to individually in the interest of getting to other questions. You may also post your item request and suggestions in the Item Request Thread in Site Feedback!

FORUMS, SPAM

Regarding the recent amount of spam in forums like Gaia Community Discussion and Site Feedback, would it be possible to revise the specified requirements of becoming a moderator or raise awareness about how moderating works and how to apply in order to encourage users to join the mod team? The amount of spam is really overwhelming and is a low priority to existing moderators due to the amount of other TOS violations on the site and a lack of manpower.

USERS, RULES

This is mostly a question for the moderators. Recently Knight Yoshi (ATS regular, GaiaUpgrade dev) was banned for "trolling" over a political discussion in Site Feedback. Could anyone explain why it was considered trolling so that we understand what crosses the line in that regard?

Some fairly strong political discussions take place on Gaia and I feel it is in all of our best interests to understand where we are covered and how.

Good afternoon everyone! The summer event is near completion and will be ready on the 12th of August!

Hello staff!

Features- Runway
Missing prize grants, broken museums

It seems Runway's decided to act up again D:
Since August 2nd, the runway has not been automatically updating the Museum of Museums nor sending out prizes the following morning.
The following is speculation but this does come on a roughly one year anniversary of a total runway break when the first of the month bugs were still a thing, so it seems a bit more like residue of that perhaps, unless something was just accidentally hit D:

Regardless of the cause it would be nice to see the automatic prize and museum systems up and running again soon if possible!

Features / Shops
Are you planning on bringing back GCash Giftcards to the Cash Shop, or at least offering an alternative method for users to easily continue trading GCash with one another?

Question Category Items

Can we make it so that a cutter removes the wings + lil' bat center on the collar poses of the [Bat Romance] items? The shoulder puff / floof is excellent and can be used in lots of outfits. Just figured I'd ask, cause it can't hurt!

[The Impetuous]

Question Category Items

Can we have some lone knee-high socks + knee-high socks with shoes that allow us to wear our default skins and are not a full leg mod that require us to use select skin poses? This would be neat.

[Meiriana]

Items/RIGS/CI

Could we please have a male-themed RIG/CI be released sometime soon? Or at least get us some real legs/feets and not toothpicks for legs/feets?

Features

Will there ever be a feature for the marketplace to filter out items I already own? (I want to own as many items of clothing as possible, cause I love dressing up, but as it is now I must actually click on each item to see if I already own it already.)

We've been making a lot of major changes to the backend, and although it shouldn't affect Gaia Runway, looks like I still made some mistakes along the way. sweatdrop

I'll look into fixing it tonight. Things should be back to normal starting tomorrow.

Hi there,

What is it that you would like to revise on the requirements for becoming a moderator?
