Future Site Features and the Gaia WorkshopOctober 13th, 2014: Princess Angelishia Snorlax says NO I know it was asked about a while ago, but I believe it was Princess Angelishia that said the marriage system was being considered as a new feature. Have you looked more into that system or is it thrown to the wayside and forgotten completely? ^^; Di Inferi Hello~! Hope all is well on your end Gaia Staff. I only have one question and that is... Is there still an idea or plan to add/show/showcase gaians in relationships when they post in forums? I remember it being discussed a few months back and I haven't heard anything since. First time posting in the Q&As! Have a good day~ 3nodding Hey there~ ! This project is near and dear to my heart because it's so cute! It is still on our list of things we may produce in the future, however is not slated for release soon. Princess Angelishia Narumi Misuhara This hasn't changed, we have one but there has been questions raised as to how many people would actually use it. I'll see if maybe we can get a poll out to get a better gauge of how many of you would. smile Narumi Misuhara Twisted Lady Thanks so much for doing this. I have a few questions that I've been wondering about forever. 1. Any news on the pets system? An old journal from last year said you were looking to launch it around February, but obviously that wasn't the case. It seemed like you guys were fairly far along with it, it would suck if the project's been scrapped after all that work. 1. We worked on it but we kept missing the Engineering deadline. Eventually we could no longer commit the Engineering team to stay on the project so we had to scrap it. It's not completely forgotten though, it's still on our main project list. Narumi Misuhara spam and ham TOPIC 2) lol u shud make pets available on flash instances and like you have to give the pets food that are buyable with either gold or gc (sink?) 2. Agreed!

October 20th, 2014: Narumi Misuhara Scobre FeaturesWhat will Gaia do to improve and update chat and social features of the site? I think the beggest thing we'd like to do is get the Gaia chat back in, it's long overdue. In addition increasing the various games we have and making them more social via interaction with others. Narumi Misuhara Yuekazehime FeaturesCan we get GST in the header so we know if events/sales are ending even if not in that time zone? No, it still wouldn't be that helpful as it is not an accurate reflection of actual time.

October 27th, 2014: Princess Angelishia Chamaellia MiscWhen are you going to start the official Gaia Wedding plans? An example would be like: make the two profiles to one, exchange of vows, promise rings, etc. As mentioned previously, this is a feature that is near and dear to my heart because it's so cute! We don't currently have a planned release date, but it is something we are considering. Narumi Misuhara Soul of Kyr Items, Events, Etc.The Pet feature never launched, but a lot of us are stuck with the Virtual Piggy Fluff Food cluttering up our inventories....we can not sell them or trash them or anything but leave them to clutter our Inventories....is there anything that can be done about that?? Maybe Unsoulbound them or something so we can sell, trash, whatever them?? Because I am honestly tired of them.... Yeah, no reason we can't make them delete-able . Narumi Misuhara Zphal ShopsHello staff, ‘04er here! I remember way back when there was a feature called Engraving. Agatha could attach a message onto a piece of jewelry purchased from her shop for a small fee. I think it would be really fantastic if you could bring this feature back (just for her jewelry or for all items, either way would be super awesome). Personally, I think it was a fun feature that really made gift-giving special; I still have the Engraved Gold Promise Ring my husband gave me ten years ago and I wouldn’t sell it for even trillions of gold! Engraving makes items invaluable. Furthermore, I think it would act as a good goldsink, as I’m sure, if re-implemented, the Engraving cost would be much greater than it used to be to reflect the current economy. Excited to hear what you guys think. Thanks! We can look but the reason we took it down was due to abuse in the messages being engraved X_X

November 3rd, 2014: bluealaris Crystal Sparda Games/MiscCould we bring back the lottery system. You remember, this thing? Maybe make prizes be custom item tickets and have multiple winners, etc? Kickstarters are getting tiresome and old fairly quickly, so maybe we could bring back something old instead of making something new. This is a good suggestion- I'll talk to our dev team about re-using it in the future!

November 10th, 2014: Narumi Misuhara His Majesty King FeaturesCan a saved drafts option be created in mail? Oftentimes I like to write long messages, and find it difficult to pick up where I left off, especially should the window close or am logged out. It would also make Mail feel like real email Yes, it is really annoying when you've written something long then you lose it. crying ...I duplicate you utterly... Princess Angelishia Chillaxasaurus

Question; When is the marriage coming out? And or are you still doing it?
It's not currently in production right now, but is a project we love and will probably do in the future. bluealaris One Rainy Night FeaturesCan we see this ever-growing "to-do list" and "want-to-do list" that you regularly speak of? I'm very interested in hearing about this website's upcoming updates and features. Without tentacl or zOMG running anymore, I'm curious to see where this website's income will be invested in the website. It would be nice to have some communication on the direction this website is going and what your future plans are. We're not opposed to creating a monthly features update where we cover what's been finished and what we are looking forward to starting. We usually try to include this in the monthly update newsletter.

November 17th, 2014: bluealaris Kain-Senpai Misc.Greetings, Staff! With the end of zOMG!, I have a question: In the event Gaia wants to create another video game based on the history and the site, or whatever idea you guys come up with, would it be feasible to work with a video game company (such as TellTale Games, for example) and have them create and develop the game, while it would be published on Gaia's behalf? I see it as a win/win for you guys. If a video game company, even an indie one, were to create something based on the site, it can be ported to several different platforms, essentially bringing a wider audience to the site. In addition, it may cull and appease the users who feel distraught over the loss of zOMG!, by giving them something new to play and experience. Plus, a bunch of other ideas to tie the site with the game. That I can see working in your favor. Just food for thought. biggrin That's a wonderful idea- if TellTale Games ever wanted to collab with GaiaOnline I'd be nothing but enthusiastic. Narumi Misuhara Fat Obstreperous Jerk Features Many moons ago you guys said you were looking into a replacement for meebo's instant messenger.. whatever happened to that? The project had been placed on hold. We can re-look at this though.

November 24th, 2014: [NPC] Gaia Staff Quote: Features Will the Favorites feature ever be released? [staff alert about it from forever ago] Sadly no, this project was discontinued. Narumi Misuhara Nenanah Features
This question deals with the old item engraving feature.
Engraving the items with a message was always an extra special way to show appreciation to those we were gifting. It also helps several of us discern the difference from that extra special gift we got from someone and any other multiples we may have in our inventory.
I know that an issue with this was that people were writing rude things on the items. Maybe you could create a word filter to filter out any crude language or put a report item message button to report rude item messages to the mods.
Anyway this was a great site feature and I'm sure that many people would love to see it make a comeback. It also has the potential to be a great gold sink too.
My question is...
Is there any chance that Gaia could reintroduce engraving to items? I'll be honestly, highly unlikely. Narumi Misuhara -l- Rosalia -l- About the Games: Have you guys ever considered bringing back the gold lotto that used to be here? I'd love to see it come back, so those of us who can't afford Gaia Cash can use it and have a chance at winning a hefty amount of gold. We have actually, we have a working version of it still in test only environments.

December 8th, 2014: Narumi Misuhara Bee Movie Suit Features: Any hopes for new things in Gaia labs in the foreseeable future or more features users can beta test? Hard to say, we leave it up to the individual to decide if they want a project of theirs to go into it for testing and feedback from the community. We certainly are not opposed to more things going there.

December 15th, 2014: Zero Omega Nenanah FeaturesA couple of weeks ago I asked if you could bring back the old item engraving feature since a lot of us old fogies missed it and it had a great potential at being a gold sink. I also pitched some ideas to keep offensive language out out the engraved messages. You said that bringing back the feature would more than likely never happen. Can you please give us a reason as of why this feature will never make a comeback? Question is originally by ( Nenanah ) I am using Nenanah's Ask the Staff Question Posting Service. Outside of the abusive messages, the old engraving system was from 2003/2004 and we don't have the code to support it any longer which is why we would not have it make a come back. bluealaris The Insane Hattress MiscQuestion: Can you guys bring something like meebo back? Sure, we're starting to work on a chat feature for Gaia right now!

January 5th, 2015: bluealaris 0h Sup Bro Features Will the Gaia Lottery Ever Come Back? The One Where Users Could Use There Gold To Buy Lotto Tickets And Every Week/Month You Announced The Winners And They Would Get Prizes? Would seem Like a Great Way To Dump Gold/GC This has great potential to be renewed, yes! Narumi Misuhara Diosu Can you please update the footer? Clicking on the Quick Links doesn't even load most of the time. We'll likely be replacing the whole thing with a new chat system.

January 12th, 2015: Narumi Misuhara Enricox Just a thoughtLike aim,msn,or any kind of messager. I like to see if there is a gaiaonline messanger that would be for smartphones as well. Just thinking for my most lazy ways to communicate with my gaiaonline friends, then walking to the computer We are currently working on a new messenger and we are keeping mobile in mind with it's design. It may not go out at the same time as the web version but at least we won't have to reinvent the wheel on it's infrastructure for mobile. smile

January 19th, 2015: Zero Omega Recommence Features
I know that the old gaia theatres wouldnt be a possibility due to copyright but what if it was ~ invite only, youtube searched, theatres. I could definitely see that working out. Is there any reason why its not possible? It's definitely a fascinating idea and something we can take the feedback on! No guarantees we can ever have it, but we'll consider it! Narumi Misuhara Trafalgar D Water Law Features If plausible, could you tell us some of the new features the Gaian community will be able to look forward to in 2015? Stay tuned for a community update with these!

On February 18th, the Marriage System was released. Questions about it will no longer appear in this thread; it has been given its own topic. Questions that were asked about it prior to its release will not be moved. That includes the one on February 2nd, Narumi.

March 2nd, 2015: Narumi Misuhara Lady Saxophone FeaturesSo does the stickers.feeligo (error) JS line which keeps popping up in our Console Logs have anything to do with that Chat System which may or may not be coming out soon? ninja No. smile Narumi Misuhara DarkGearDragon EventsCan we open another thing like in the past there was the lobby for videos, I believe it was called the video lounge or something, but can we open something like that for 2 or 3 months? Possible but would entirely depend on what we were using it for.
