Tag yourself I am also kinda dead now

Is the death of gaia just an extension of all of us getting old? :/


Could be, but the admins and developers could've upgraded the site a lot more effectively too. Updated the avatars, overhauled the games into a new system so that flash emulators aren't needed...


My guess is that gaia is barely if at all profitable. They don't advertise it as far as I can tell which means the probably don't even have the budget to get new people in. My conspiracy theory I guess

There are ways around that. Crowdfunding based on nostalgia

The site certainly so much different these days than I remember. Then again I only visit once in a blue moon anyway at this point, only to feel sadness for the people that, chances are, I will never speak to again.

Yeah but it's kind of the only thing other than the Aquarium threads

Yeah. sweatdrop

Though I did play zOMG with a bunch of people recently-ish!

I remember the days when a topic would be off the front page in less than a minute within the chatterbox. A sea of new topics constantly flowing with everything from spam, art begging, and silly topics. Now... Not so much.
I miss idling in towns. I was never one for posting so I mostly lurk CB now instead of doing anything.

Yeah, I miss being able to jump around and find art threads and go into towns and stuff.

Now I kinda want to go back and dig up my own Gaia art from back in the day. I think I have it somewhere... I will have to do some digging.

True, very true. Maybe the next time I decide to sneak in I should post some of it. (If I find it.)
In my opinion, it seems Gaia is doing more recolors and items than actual site upgrades. While I love the items, it would be nice to give recolors a break and focus on getting the site less broken.

That's what I'm hoping for
