Inflation is still beyond ridiculous despite implementing a new currency. It's getting exhausting.

ABP is reasonable considering the age/rarity of the item. BUT it looks like users are purposely trying to inflate it by only listing it high.

It's crappy, but I highly doubt they would ever implement price ceilings or anything like that. Would be extremely unpopular to do so.

Are there any updates on things like Rally 3 or Towns 3? Rally 3 has been in the same state for over a year now. It's nearly non-functional.

Sorry for the long wait in development.  We had tested the initial release of Towns 3 and had since made significant improvement in the game's performance as well as fixing a number of core issues.

We have a newer build coming out that will focus on customizability.  Once this new build is fully tested, we will start open beta to all users.

No need to be sorry! Thanks for the update on the development, as long as it isn't forgotten about entirely, I'll keep checking in from time to time. heart

Any word on user flairs?
Over 8 months without a reply is kinda upsetting.

Solstice game

it would be hella cool, if future items you could get in game, were things from past events. LIke think of all the halloween weapons we've gotten through the years, would be legit.

We had been talking about making past event items available, will consider the solstice event as one of them.

Please re-release sdplus dolls and npc companions. Both have been talked about many times, will they ever get released? sad

As an alternative to updating flash games to another format, has Gaia considered working with a group like the one making Ruffle or another alternative flash player?

Then there's this item I was keeping an eye on

and this item

We need better ways of tracking items and how they sell besides just graphs. This is another reason why Gaia shouldn't always go by ABP when re-releasing items. So now if that Cake item sells for 8t changing the ABP and becomes unlisted for a while are they going to sell it for $30 or something?

Hi staff and artists, happy Tuesday!

Features
I’m curious about the avatars featured when collecting the Daily Chance rewards around the pages on Gaia.


I’ve had friends say they don’t enjoy being featured and are curious as to how or why they are being seen/displayed on it.

Is there a way to opt-out or disable it

pretty sure they get picked from the "ranked" avis
https://www.gaiaonline.com/collections/landing/ranked

not sure if it goes from the weekly, 3day or 1 day popular ones, but those are the avatars that make an appearance
not sure if making those private would help

Workshop

Whattttuppppp, now that the summer event is finally released (tho pending updates and new content) are resources gonna be available to look into some of the workshop requests?

I'm still interested in the one I submitted April 2020 on a mule, and Starry lemonades one about using the workshop interface for project ticket submissions from Jan 2020

There are a lot of workshop requests pending, we will look into seeing which ones are worked on as soon as resource are free.

Items

a big thank you for re-releasing , a rarer Narwheel item

more of a request and less of a question, but I hope you keep this up, as I would love to complete my collections without the need to borrow items from other users

it's often the same gatcha/narwheel/lucky catch items getting re-released, so i was very happy to see it in C9

Yes, but once again, the price on it is WAY too high. No single item should cost 2,000 freaking GC especially when Angel subscriber bonuses are STILL tanked.

it's 1500 atm actually, but i get you..
they know people want the items and milk it sad
as if having to be an angel sub just to get to the store wasn't already taxing lol

A friend of mine mentioned last time it was re-released it was 800gc

I don’t know if true. But I agree, it’s quite expensive for an older item.

Misc/forums

Can we perhaps get more mods in higher traffic areas of the forums?
Such as CB?
It's a mess there lately..

[Yamper]

misc//site safety

there's been a really bad thread around for 3 days now
i PM'd the thread to a mod and no one got back to me

could you consider locking threads moderators have to keep around, so it can't be bumped further?

can you do something about the trolls and other awful people on the site?
please don't just tell me your "moderation team works super hard"
i'm sure they do
but when there's gross threads up for days and days at a time even when it has been reported over and over, and PM'd to mods,
i don't want to hear that copy and pasted fake customer service schtick
