Exxos I found this thread that explains what is going on: http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/gaia-guides-and-resources/welcome-back-the-gcd-s-marketplace-inflation-recap/t.91957757/ Edit: Aaaaaaaaand I found out something else. Tentacl is gaia's 18+ venture. Looks like a cyber-brothel. Also - I can't imagine anyone will be breaking the 18+ rule /s Lilygwen Where are we going to chat if this place is shut off?! gonk gaia_angelright That's... actually a good question. But even if people wanted to migrate is there even a place to go that isn't in the same boat as Gaia? I really wish I could be a "fly on the wall" when the owner's discuss what they actually plan for Gaia. I wonder if they've giving up and just trying to squeeze out as much cash a possible? or are some actually appalled at what direction it's going and trying to come up with something better? Or maybe it doesn't matter either way and it's hit the "tipping point." I mean, it's not dead yet. I admit there are still things even beyond the people here that I like about Gaia. Also, it kinda makes me chuckle when I imagine a few college students getting excellent data for their economic thesis. lol

humble_gypsy_traveller I just want you guys to know that you're all AWESOME!!! Thanks for the laughs and support and ego boosts! For people I've never actually met...you all have a special place in my heart that is warm and protected. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Yes hear hear! The best part of this place really does boil down to the people. (Not only those on your list but all the AGAers.)

Gaia's new tenacl site suucks...they're as dirty in the GD as described by a lot of people here on gaia.

Also, it kinda makes me chuckle when I imagine a few college students getting excellent data for their economic thesis. lol I think of the original crew of gaia, only Helsing and Lanzer are still involved and Lanzer is basically in a Bill Gates position; not involved in the day to day, but able to step in and say "WTF?! Are you insane?!" So at this point, my "original crew thought this would go 10 years" theory has fallen aside a little since those people are mostly gone and just collecting money. But in the end, this is what happens to every online venue. They start bowing to the whims of the credit card commandos, bust the system to appease them, and then the system breaks down. I have yet to look into recolor.me, so I will check that. On a side note, I have found a way to play the inflation a bit. If you have a lot of common RIGs on your wishlist, this is also good. Go to Loyal's Bazaar, buy an Ivan's Garage Sale for 20,000. Open it and if it is something you want, keep it. Otherwise list it on the marketplace for an inflated buy-it-now (the average I am seeing is 50,000 to 450,000) and a starting bid of 21,000. You have an almost guaranteed sale that will net you at least what you put in. I dropped 200,000 yesterday, kept three items, and recouped 987,422.

I have to wait a while to get in since I'm newly returned but I'll definitely give that a try when I'm able.

For myself...I got rid of those evil GG's...put them up for a modest 150M each (trust me, that was the CHEAPEST on the list)...thing is, I think i'm gonna play devils advocate and hold on to the last four.

Not sure I follow what you are referring to? Do you mean something Gaia is doing or it is about our talk about where we would go if we didn't have Gaia?
