They still left it in the Community Announcements forum.
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/community-announcements/cash-shop-update-enjoy-a-delicious-midsummer-swirl/t.51198571/
Do they really expect that not announcing it will keep the backlash down? DO THEY NOT REALIZE THAT HIDING IT WILL JUST MAKE THINGS WORSE?! HOW ON EARTH DO THEY THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA?!?!?
The stupidity of their marketing decisions astounds me sometimes.

I found it one the home page when someone in a guild mentioned it since before I figured they took it down that it HAS to be on the home page. It was, if you click on the Community tab.
...oh look they made it on the rotating advertisement

The little bat wings seem fine to me, they match the little cupid wings in an opposites kind of way. (Though only as the wings, I still hate that it's in a RIG).
The golden wings though... I haven't been to SF yet and I'm a little afraid to.

@Hikari: Yeah, i found the item with said wings. T crying T
Honestly, if it weren't for the bile fascination with Gaia's marketing decisions that keeps dragging me back here, then I would have left long ago.

Is there a form of the AAA for people addicted to RIGs? 'Cause Gaia's admins and staff need to start going. Badly.
The funniest thing about this though was that someone asked why they can't actually eat the food items, and a dev said, "Well, we wanted to have that be a part of a gold shop update." rofl

Andromeda Phoenix Is there a form of the AAA for people addicted to RIGs? 'Cause Gaia's admins and staff need to start going. Badly. The funniest thing about this though was that someone asked why they can't actually eat the food items, and a dev said, "Well, we wanted to have that be a part of a gold shop update." rofl Linx or it didn't happen. Lol, seriously? That seems... absurd. But then, it's funny how angry people are. You'd think that Gaia would listen at least about not doing this stupid level s**t with the RIGs. Make them a on-click-that's-it item. Ugh... and I'm going to be pissed if the "Marketing Team" (a.k.a. Screaming Hell Retard Squad) thinks this is going to pass for a summer event. BULLCRAP.

I certainly hope they haven't lost their minds to the point where a RIG would replace any annual Gaia event.

I'll see if I can find the quote then. I want to know how they went from "Ok, we get that you hate the tiered RIGs, so we're gonna make RIGs more like a game" to "Here's your tiered RIG!" *rolls eyes* I'm beginning to think retarded people have the potential to run Gaia better than the staff we have now ever could. *walks off to that 'other avatar sites' thread* I don't think this is the summer event, but I think they're being very stupid. Did they really think that releasing a 1 set gold shop update right before releasing a tiered RIG with quite a few good items was a good move to take? I don't know about these guys anymore. Edit: reapersun We held back on making handhelds, actually, since those would be more awesome in an eventual gold shop update. I really want to make lots and lots of pixel food... gonk from here.
