Yeah steampunk is definitely one of the design ideas, you're totally right

It's totally random though, we decided that we want some steampunk stuff and we worked on it, we didn't planned for a complete line of steampunk items. So I can't say we'll have a lot more to come... Unless a lot of people asked for them.

Many artists were members before starting at Gaia, not so much for developers however.

Hello! I only have a couple of questions.

i. Several items seemed intentionally aimed at the steampunk genre. (Most notably the SP items and the timepiece.) Are my guildmates and myself just jumping to conclusions here?
ii. And if it was intentional, do you have any gearheads on the staff, or plans for the future?
iii. What was your most rewarding experience as a staffer? And did any of you start out as members, and end up full-time employees?

Thanks so much for your time, even if you can't answer. You all are doing a wonderful job.

Marriage sytem
Yes or no?
DX

I say there should be one. I wonder how much divorces on Gaia will cost. xp

I think so too,but that's my oppinion

And no,i'm not mickey mouse
DX
I can dream tho right?

You guys know what happened on MapleStory right?

I don't want Gaia to get downgraded to that.

But Gaia and maplestory are two different websites

If the rumors are true,and we do get the marriage system
I'm sure Gaia would handle it differently so we don't get a repeat of what happened in Maplestory

Then we'd have more n00bs and cyberers coming to Gaia to ONLY get married and do the horizontal mambo.

It's forbidden.

FORBIDDEN, I SAY!

Hey Lanzer, I was just wondering when Gaia is going to get the guilds updated?
Like where we can use the guilds funds for prizes and whatever else we need.

Also, when are the errors in the guilds going to be fixed? xp
The crew logs are useless because they barely show anything. xP

Well I had a more detailed question but I lost track of time.
So hopefully these get answered or I'll come back next time. surprised

[Illucio]

Enjoy your week everyone =D I can't wait till Friday =DDD

[Lanzer]

That's Saka who worked on it

Heya Lanzer!! I am not lurking in the ATA this week!! Horray!!

This Question is for anyone that is willing to answer
(because I doubt that Lanzer would know this, since he usually does not)

I would LOVE to know the artist to The new Egg Evolving Item: Diaper Egg
XD
(Maybe Buki pwease)

Other then that..
How is everything with Everyone??
Any big plans for Valentines Day??

that sounds like a fun game! good luck winning at it!

It was a long time ago, mostly local advertising. I wasn't willing to commute to San Francisco while living in San Jose. I don't regret it though...I wouldn't be here at Gaia if I didn't go Internet back in the dot com boom.

It's good, can use a second color to accent the black.

Nope, welcome any avi art though biggrin

More NPC stuff in general, no really big thing for now.

Gotta go, have a good week everyone!

Sorry about my question before, I should have directed it straight to you Simone since you seem to work on all of the aquarium fish.

But Simone, will there be any aquarium items in the future that the fish can actually play with? Like a ball they could bounce around the aquarium or a frisbee they could throw back at each other? Are there any plans in the making of those type of items? :3

I know there are a lot of plans for Aquarium, but I'm only partially in the loop on them. I learn about the new developments as they get closer to launch. It really wouldn't surprise me if there were toys though. Fun!

When Im in Guilds accepting join requests I see

“Permissions Error
Permission utterly denied! Absolute denial! Maybe you just need to log in?”

When will you get on fixing this error?

We're doing a lot of work on Guilds, so I can pass this on to the team. When you accept the requests, do they actually get accepted or not? It would be helpful to know. Thanks!

I got something to add to this, everything crew/captains do, it says that error, moving/deleting threads, accepting requests, promoting/banning people.

Same question I gave to Sesami:
Do these things work, but you get errors or do they just not work at all anymore? You can PM me later if you don't know right now. Thanks!

Yes they usually work, but they don't go into the crew log. So we can't see what we actually did...

Okay, thank you! I'll pass that on.
