Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hi everyone! So you might've seen the dramatic notices flying around the guild as of late. Haha, I'd like to state here again that no, I'm not going anywhere. You'll never be rid of me.

However, I can't commit to working on the guild so much anymore. Updates and developments will come, but you shouldn't expect them on the scale or frequency that they were. I have a life too, y'know, and it promises to be incredibly busy in the New Year.

Since the very beginning the guild has had a thrust of practical donations, such as art and help, rather than monetary ones. Unfortunately, despite this, I've always had to shoulder the burden of both regulating and devolping by myself. I'm proud of what I've created, and I hope that you guys are, too, and will continue to enjoy it for many years to come. ^^

More word on things to come on the Twitter and here in the next few days! Bye for now, everyone! 4laugh

That's right, people - the Christmas Event is here!

Come in, take part, post in the discussion thread, mingle, have fun, and WIN BIG!

Come and take part also in Hana's Secret Santa, and give her a big thank you for her contributions of art to the event while you're at it! Couldn't've done it without you, girl heart There's a 20k price limit on the Secret Santa, so it doesn't break the bank!!

Enjoy yourselves this holiday season, everyone! 4laugh Best of luck to everyone who enters our various competitions!

I've been meaning to make a note about this for a while now, but The Finding is almost at its conclusion! Come in and have your say while you still can!

The current choice is the penultimate... but there are still a lot of surprises in store...

Have fun, everyone!

Well, everyone, here we are in 2011! We've all known each other for over a year now. Over a year! Can you believe it?

It hasn't been a road without strife. We've had schisms in our small community - quite painful ones. We've had troublemakers, we've had drama. There have been snakes in our little patch of paradise who would've liked nothing more than to see us fail. However, we've proven throughout good times and adversity that genuine goodwill and friendship are things that can last not only through a couple of weeks, not only through a year, but throughout the years and forever. I'm pleased, proud and other nice 'p' words to say that the people who have stuck with us up until now are the people who truly understand this.

I know that they - that we - shall carry on this message not only into the new year, but into the rest of our lives. :] I'm very proud of all of you, and you mean the world to me, my friends.

Take this message into your hearts, and let us all together strive towards both virtue and happiness in the times to come. Happy New Year, everyone!

Hey you guys! Just a note to draw your attention to the fact that lots of threads have been moved around:

1. The no longer relevant event threads in the main forum have been archived in Righteous Campaigns.

2. The guides for v1 battle system have been destickied and moved to Clam Ballot.

3. The backlog of new character threads I never moved have finally been shifted to Dossiers, so if your character thread is suddenly missing from the main rp forum have a look in there.

Thank you everyone for your contributions so far to the latest poll thread! I'm glad my ideas about where to take the guild have been met with such approval. ^^ I'll start trying to hash some stuff together and we'll see what happens!

Much love, toodles!~

Hello everyone! This is just an announcement expressing hope that you all have shown your support for the 100th annual International Women's Day...

...and if you haven't already, you can always head over to our thread, where you'll find lots of resources and plenty to talk about. ^^

Let's strive every day to create a more equal world, without hatred, fear and oppression.

Hello everyone! heart

Well, it's been two years since a lot of us met! Two years since we stayed up all night polishing the trident, battling for the victory of good over evil. I wonder, do any of you remember what your first impressions of your friends were? What were your costumes back then, and now? If you feel like sharing your experiences with your fellow BOOdles, take a look at this thread, where we can all celebrate the festival that brought us together... together!

For oldbies and newbies alike who were fond of the original rp or always wanted to try it out but never got the chance, a reboot of the original guild roleplay is still in the works. If you'd like to help us gauge interest and/or give your opinions, post here! If you already posted before in the previous poll, don't worry, as everything is being taken into account! ^^

But enough talk! Enjoy yourselves at this special time of year, whatever your plans are! Fun fact: Did you know that where I come from, it's traditional to give money to trick-or-treaters rather than sweets? Personally I'd prefer money over sweets any day, so I'm sad to see it dying out!!

Hello, hello one and all! cheese_whine

Remember a few weeks back we were talking about the new roleplay! Well, the boring bits are over and tomorrow I'll be opening the thread with the first post! Anybody who hasn't finished their characters, don't panic, I'm sure there'll be plenty of time for it later. We also love to see newcomers, so to anyone who's interested, COME ON BY!

As well as this, belated congratulations are in order to TeamRocketGirl17 - I'm sure you've all seen her hopping around the forums. Much of the recent content wouldn't be here without her support. Due to her dedication and profound service to me and the guild, she's been promoted to moderatorhoodship! Well done TRG! And to you all - live long and prosper, at least until we see each other again tomorrow!
