So they say.
Except they have so much extra money...?
Remember the whole donate-x$ for Haiti and they'll match it..?

Well of course they have extra stuff, so they can do things like that. Other then paying for all the servers and probably the pay checks of all that work for Gaia they need money so they can do the conventions and charities and stuff like that. Tax write offs and all.
They also "gave" some back to Gaians with the whole free GCash and back at Prom last year we had a month of free limited spending too.

Hahaha... the free limited spending was timed so you could only get one item, if that.
Unless of course I"m forgetting something. Which is entirely possible.
But yes. I understand that it takes time, effort, money to keep this place up and expanding... hell, the Frontier game was fun and that takes a lot of effort... but really... people would still spend the same money on the gcash if the RIGs went back down....?
Pish. >_< I suppose it's not really that important...

Maybe they felt that the money they was making wasn't justifying the time and effort going into making the RIGs and the items in them.
Who knows.
Hows you?

I'm doing well. Last night I started the Scott Pilgrim series.
I'm starting to think that Roxy wasn't really in the comics. ;_;
How's your day?

I'm doing good. Went on a book buying binge to make up for the fact I also had to buy stuff for school.
That included the Scott Pilgrim series and yes Roxy is in it. Just in volume 4 and only in volume 4.
And you know, after reading all of the seires you can really appreciate all that they kept in the movie. Yeah they had to streamline the store and trim side characters and plot points, but the film did an awesome job in it's own right.

XD Oh good. I liked Roxy. It's just they haven't insisted on the evil EX minus the boy... bit..
And it doesn't help that I went to sleep last night after the third volume. And since hammerspace appeared in the Ramona vs. Envy fight, I was getting worried.
But yeah... reading the comic really does give me more appreciation for the movie. XD
I almost feel like I watched the movie a second time, and sometimes my visualizations go into moviemode... XD

Haha, it's cool. Personally I think Lucus Lee really wasn't a bad guy, just got caught up with everything. Still, evil ex is evil ex and thus he needed to go.
Still not 100% sure if they're really dead though.... I mean, turning into change is one thing but since they're bosses they probably have a way of coming back somehow. Be a shame for them to just die... I guess.... I hate Todd haha.

Hahaha... Todd is a d**k. XD
I bet they have a save point handy so next time Ramona has a new BF, they can totally be there.
Its funny how sometimes Ramona has the funky head lines. o_o I assume it's Gideon transmitting into her head?

Oh that's just The Glow. It wasn't in the film and from what I gathered only afew people have it and has something to do with subspace and may or may not be triggered by people hiding/in conflict with themselves and/or past.

Hmmm... I'll have to pay more attention to when it shows up. It seemed like it happened in odd places.

Seems to happen more to Ramona when something makes her doubt Scott. At least to me. I have to reread them, but since I just finished them today I'll wait some time to let everything sink in before I go back.

Haha.. Indeedies?
Like I said, I'll have to pay attention.

=o I started reading the dragon books by the EE Knight dude. He's quite a talented storyteller.

Yeah, there's a lot of things you tend to miss the first time around. Rereading volumes 4 and 5 after volume 6 will show you stuff haha.
And cool. I haven't touched his dragon books but I will agree on his talent. He's got a good style that paints everything onto your brain.

XD I usually count on missing the details, so I just re-read everything later anyways...
Haha... yeah... well, but the thing is... I'm not entirely sure I like the story... but I'm having a hard time leaving it alone. I took it to work to read on my breaks and I almost forgot to go back to work.
And yet I'm not entirely sure I like it yet. XD;
