Welcome to Gaia! ::

I really enjoyed the earlier Gaia plot lines. It's nice to see the NPC's doing stuff outside of the events.

I didn't even participate in this one cause I was so busy @_@. I'm ready for Thanksgiving break, even if it means Black Friday hits.

I didn't join until 2005, so I didn't get to participate in the 2005 Halloween event. They do seem to have gone downhill since I joined though. sweatdrop

So Kenny, I'm assuming that you are having to work on Black Friday?

I am so behind in my work. I am going to have to dramatically reduce my Gaia time each day if I am going to pass. I have a bad habit of going to a hangout thread and staying for hours. I guess that will be missing me for about a month.

Wow... That's harsh! xp Did you hear about the people who were trampled to death at Wal-Mart last year on Black Friday?

Yeah, people really suck when it comes to getting deals. Trampling an employee and a pregnant woman cause you have to break down the door for the deal and can't wait for them to open it is just ridiculous.

To remedy that, Walmart is staying open 24 hours this year and having people go to specific areas in the store to wait for the deals to start. I'm sure that'll go over well.

I am seriously irked. stressed I just found out that my friend izuna_13_13 had her account hacked. Some phishing thing came up and tricked her into giving her username and password. She's been on Gaia for a long time and she has known all of the warnings, so I am betting that this one was really bad. So now, this jerk has control of Izuna's account, and the creep even changed her username to cocacola3532 and blocked the profile. People get their accounts hacked everyday, but it never ceases to bother me. How can people be so cruel to their fellow Gaians? Isn't this a place to relax and make friends? What could induce someone to steal someone's account? It doesn't make any sense. The only thing I can think of is that people are too obsessed with items. xp

People suck is the general explanation I give. Some do it for revenge, some do it for real life money (hack an account, sell the items/gold for cash), and some do it just to be asses. There's no explanation for most except "because they can".

I found out I'm not going to be cashiering on Black Friday. Instead I'll be opening our little food area. I dunno how I feel about this.

Food work seems safer. Those check-out lines are going to be terrible!

Izuna filed a report. I guess all we can do now is wait. Although what you just Skippy kind of scares me. You never got your other account back? I thought that Gaia's staff was able to restore everyone's accounts that get stolen.
