Ask the Staff Rules & Guidelines


  1. Please keep your posts constructive.
    Posts that are overly abusive towards management, staff or other members of the community will be deleted without warning. Gaian's who are overly negative in Ask the Staff may be permanently removed from participation in this and future events.

  2. 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.

  3. Repeat posts will be deleted.
    Please only post your question once. Repeated posting of the same question may result in the additional posts being deleted. This is to help keep the noise in the thread down and allow questions by others to be seen.

  4. 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.

  5. Not all questions will be answered.
    This may occur because at present- they do not have an answer, it was already answered, because it was missed, or because the proper format was not followed in posting the question.

  6. 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.

Could you make category options on Announcements? I don’t buy gcash and am in no way interested in spending tiers and constantly getting Announcements about them is rather annoying. Being able to pick the types of Announcements I want to receive would be wonderful.

Could you fix the “Lowest Price” value on the sell window so that it updates more frequently and is therefore more accurate? I don’t know how fast it’s set now, but it’s nowhere near enough to keep up with how quickly the marketplace fluctuates.

I understand it can’t be instantaneous, but even a 1 minute refresh rate would be a significant improvement over what we have currently.
Thanks.

I asked a month or so ago why Aquarium items couldn’t be sold back to the shops. The answer I got was because they’re a prize in a game and you want to keep a handle on inflation. I’m not going to go off on your hypocrisy (the golden spatula and its ilk serve no purpose aside from increasing the gold inflation) but I would like to know why you don’t fix the issue in a better way than simply ignoring it? Below I have 2 possible solutions; I know they’re not the only options, just ones I thought of.

1. Removing the Aquarium items as a game prize is one solution, though understandably an unpopular one.

2. A much better option would be to significantly lower the price of the Aquarium items in the shops. If you don’t want us selling the items back for 500mil, lower the price until it reaches a number you’re more comfortable with, such as 5mil. Granted that means the buy price lowers from 1bil to 10mil, but no one’s paying 1bil for any of those items since the marketplace is so heavily saturated with Aquarium items most sell for less than 100k.

Drastically lowering the price and letting us sell the items back would mean everyone selling them in the marketplace would sell back to the shops instead, since we’d get more gold, forcing everyone who wants the items to buy them in the shops (or win them in the games) which, once the initial sell off of everyone’s backlog ends, actually removes more gold from the system, actually helping the inflation.

Greetings,

I've noticed a handful of users that tend to horde items struggle organizing their inventories if they contain thousands of items at a time collected over a period of years or buying a lot of lower-priced items for their avatars.

Will there be any further implementation with the inventory system to perhaps organize the items from "Sort from high to low" in value or "Sort from newest to oldest" in regards to the newer items you bought or obtained? I can see how it would be helpful towards the people that do have a lot of items.

It also seems the inventory arranger that we have as of right now is doing good, but with large amounts of items in the hundreds or even thousands causes a major struggle during the organization process.

One thing I can note is it's sometimes hard to get one item off to the edge of your inventory so to speak in the last slot rather it's the left or right side, was this intended or a potential bug?

Thanks,
Dnajun

Could we get more professional wrestling themed items? Like, an entrance ramp or ring background? Like standing outside of the ring and standing in? Could have like tables in the background stacked or something.
