There are several ways of making gold, just on the forums alone. These are the simplest ways of going about doing it. I will have another topic on how to make gold in the Guilds at a later time as everyone knows you get more for posting in the guild than in the forums but we will discuss that later. This is for those of you who just have to get into the "GQ Gaia Public". I know that some of you are strictly "Guild Junkies" and I will get to you on another topic.


1. Daily Chance.

Especially for people who are new, the daily chance often hands out gold, tokens, most trash/flower/bug/exchange related items, and there's always the possibly of winning a new item. Sure, some of the stuff you get may seem useless, but everything you get on Gaia can get you a little gold if you know how.


2. Surf! Just surfing the web page can sometimes give you gold. Every page you click on (besides profiles), has a chance of giving you gold, usually between 1-4 gold.


3. Reply to Topics.

User Image

When surfing the forum and you see a topic, don't be shy about putting in your info. If you do it in a nice and polite fashion, most people will be nice and polite back. (There are occasionally some people who are mean just for the sake of it - trolls and flamers - just ignore them.) Make sure that you're post is relevant to the topic on hand though!

Note: The length of your posts does not effect how much gold you get. A single word reply will get the same amount of gold as a long reply. Keeping this in mind, don't spam short responses inappropriately, but at the same time, don't pad your posts with pointless things thinking it'll get you more gold.

It has been said that if you post over 100 posts in a day, the amount of gold you get begins to increase again. I have no idea if this is true so if anyone goes wild in the forums and post let me know - I rarely go into the general "Gaia" anywhere anymore. I spend all my time when I am online in the guild (doing crazy s**t like this..lol)


4. Post your own Topics.

User Image

Posting your own topics is also a good way to make gold. Just make sure you read the rules of each individual forum, and don't post in the wrong place. When all else fails, and you don't know where to post something, have a field day in the Chatterbox.

You do NOT get gold for replies that other Gaian's make in your thread. You only get gold for the ones you do.


5. Polls. Take polls! They give you gold as well.


6. Post comments in people's profiles.


7. Vote -and- comment in the arena's.

User Image

From what I am told the new Gaia Arena are open so you should have lots of different things that you can vote on to make gold but WATCH this after so many votes you stop making gold so unless you are there to comment and vote just because your wasting time. When voting please at least try to read and look at it and not just random vote that is somewhat lazy of you.



8. Write entries in your Gaian Journal.


True if you write something in your personal journal everyday you can make gold. Try it and you will see - it doesn't take a book everyday but just a few random thoughts could help out to make you a few gold everyday.




Now this information is just to help you make some gold. You won't make a fortune but every bit helps right so get started with this and check out the other topics for more information on how to make gold. The more you make the closer you can get to your goals.

Should anyone have any ideas or suggestions on this, please feel free to post them.

Also now, there is GIM. They say you can earn up to 200 Gold a day or 6000 a month chatting. Just have to add people to your friends and open up the GIM and chat.

Sounds like chatterbox kind of, I wouldn't support just messaging someone and spout non-since to get your 200-6000gold. But it helps.

The 100 post thing doesn't raise the amount of gold you get. I tried this a while a go and the most I got after 100 was 2G

I have one to add that no one has yet. Has anyone taken care of fish in their aquariums? Like feed them once a day, or at least a few times a day? The more happy they are, or the better the health of your tank is all together, the better your prizes are. I've gotten like 1000g once, take that into consideration.

I've also heard that zOMG can give you gold. Some of the monsters drop it, and it can accumilate after a while. Also, if you get a lot of crap in your inventory, selling it can boost your gold greatly.

Hey I'm getting gold just from posting this.

And yes zOMG is a great way to get gold. Receive free rings from missions and sell them in the market place for 5000-30000g!

When you hit 80% happyness whenever you get gold drops it varies between 5k to 2k. So yeah, TAKE CARE OF YOUR FISHEYS!! And they'll take care of you.

My money trick are cuttlefish around 900-1000. They take forever to die off, but when their lifespan finally fades and I get that drop I open it and usually earn myself a piano which cost 3k each. Now don't think I buy them just to kill them off, I feed my aquarium daily and have a 100% tank health. Those buggers are hard to please but when ever I get other fish they have high happiness.

This is a great basic guide <3
There are many other ways to make gold, such as aquariums, zOMG, the marketplace, donations, contests(writing/drawing/tektek), etc.
but this gets down the simple things that all people in general can accomplish.
