Hum... how could I put it...
The ever-needing youth of North America and the rest of the world has drafted this once glorious gem and haven of The Internets!, for all otaku, into a commercially-oriented soul-sucker that is trying desperately to advance itself and draw in huge numbers of minions by adding the numerous electronic features that are found these days such as: An instant messager, toolbars, payable items(Burn in hell for this Gaian overlords...).
Hey, I don't mind the evolving items so much and the mass amounts of gold being THROWN at you didn't piss me off THAT MUCH (not to mention the addition of Gaia Cash really removes the value of gold in the end...), since we had to EARN it before...
But really, I'm just disappointed (not mad, just disappointed) that Gaia sold it's soul to the Microsoft Devil and joined the ranks of numerous drone companies who thrive on the little marketing they can throw at you through all forms of media available.
R.I.P. Gaia. You were once pure and untainted...

xXKyousukeXx Ouch... you don't know how much that hurts to hear... Not the best thing you could have said.. neutral My apologies. I didn't get to know you enough when you were last here. I'll have to do so now that you've returned. I also failed to add an emoticon to show that I wasn't serious. sweatdrop *hits head on wall* No hard feelings? Still, Sui should return to see Kyou back in action. cool

I fear my japanese is still a little . . . nonexistant.
As for her, she hasn't been here in a long time and I don't tend to go prying, Sama-san.
