July 12th, 2017: [NPC] Gaia Staff Welcome Back! Quote: Items So.. You guys gonna fix those Sycamorte seeds? I've heard from a lot of people that they still aren't giving out the good kin over a year after it was initially reported. I've opened hundreds myself and only get the same 3-4 kin every time. You guys have said you've fixed them before, but they always seem to magically break again a day or two later. Sycamore seed should be fixed according to the art team codemonkey37179 ElegantlyLuminous Games – Lake Kindredcodemonkey mentioned last ATS that there is an update in the works for LK based on our feedback thus far. I’m a nosy sort of person, so… any hints about that update? From that one statement, it could be anything: a new area (a beach one), updates to prizes and whatnot in existing areas, changes to gameplay, alterations in gold output, new art for the homepage, a brand new splicing shard (mutant shard, please), an alchemy recipe for legendary amulets, perhaps an LK app, or maybe the storyline will be continued. Any and all other options that I didn't mention. I don’t know. But I’m curious. 4laugh tldr: possible spoilers for the upcoming LK update? I know nothing! Lanzer told me about it.

July 18th, 2017: [NPC] Gaia Staff Welcome Back! Quote: Games: Lake KindredCan you please add a sellback value to the mice kindreds? Currently, you can only either donate them or trash/release them if you don't want your extras. Alternatively, a formula that uses the extras would be appreciated. Sure we'll add a sellback price for the item Lanzer Pengaana Lake KindredSo last ATS somebody asked about Sycamorte Seeds being fixed and sure enough they were fixed....for a whole few hours It seems that there are a limited number of rare drops in them every time they get "fixed" and it's first come first serve for anyone who's been hoarding seeds can something more permanent be done so we're not bugging ATS every week that the Sycamorte seeds are broken again? That's weird, time to check on the issue. Lanzer 2sammygate games - kindred/featureswill kindred be part of the gaia app? Initially it'll be just the inventory and dress up system. We will slowly add more features step by step. Community feature will come after that, then games like Kindred most likely.

August 1st, 2017: [NPC] Gaia Staff Welcome Back! Quote: GAMES LAKE KINDRED and the new currencyThis is about how the new system might effect gold find amulets. I have 6% gold finds on most of my active kin. A lot of gold awards while farming in stage 5 wilds is 100,000,000 gold. With a 6% gold find, it adds up to 106,000,000. With how they're rounding platinum, that 100,000,000 gold would be 10 P. that 106,000,000 g would be 10 P. The gain from the gold find is lost. That amount gets awarded enough to add an extra few billion gold per hour to the total, so it's not inconsequential. Would the amounts less than 1 P or 10 million g be added once more than 1 P was earned? So that the amounts from 10P awards would be eventually added back in? There would probably be an issue with Platinum, so until then we'd recommend playing in Gold Mode instead of Platinum Mode if you're going to use Gold Find. Lanzer ElegantlyLuminous Games -- Lake KindredCould we pretty please have some more interaction with and communication from the staff members working on LK? I know that lionheart is busy with the economy project and that maybe he'll be more active with us now that it's coming to fruition. I get that, I do. But with the way that the settings button was recently added in (i.e., without any notification whatsoever), I'm just a little concerned that all updates are going to be made silently and/or secretively like that. Don't get me wrong- I'm both thrilled and grateful to see an update and I can certainly understand any hesitation after the Sycamorte nerf blowout. It's just... I don't know. The radio silence about LK leads some of us to start putting on tinfoil hats and speculating about when or how the game will end. (Let's be honest: the tinfoil hats are not attractive.) Some simple interaction, whether it be updating the Official LK Update Thread or posting in one of the casual chat threads like the ones asking about your favorite kin, would go a long way towards restoring some faith. Side note: thanks for adding the settings option! As someone who deals with chronic migraines, I'm adoring the auto-mute. Sorry but not all developers and artists on Gaia are as talkative as me and others who frequent ATS. He still loves putting in time to update the game, and supporting LK players, and I forward questions for him to answer as often as I can. Communication is a completely different skillset that some enjoy more than others. Lanzer Jisen Meizuki GameSo I notice there are two new potions for Lake Kindred called Re-roll Potions. I will admit I don't know what the function does the potion do but where do they come from? LionHeart: They will be available in the Kindred store once released, it's a new project that will be released later. Lanzer StrawberryBeetle Features?Can we please have an option to hide all Lake Kindred Pets? Similar to the option to hide Astras/Animated Items. I'll ask LionHeart about it. Takuya Kanbara LadyThornRose Games - Lake KindredCould we see some kin re-released to the cash shop that have a low marketplace presence and haven't been re-released in a while/ever? Such as Casanova the Skunk, Silver Filligris, Teruchan, Gweenee the Dragon, etc? We can definitely look into it!

August 8th, 2017: [NPC] Gaia Staff Welcome Back! Quote: Games (Lake Kindred)So, for a while I had been wondering if the avis in the LK captcha were made by staff or they were taken from user's saved outfits, till I got a captcha with my own dream avi. It's not ok, the avis I saved are private and nobody except my sis should see them before I wear them (bc we match) so it makes me uncomfortable knowing anyone can see them at random not even knowing it's an user's saved outfit. Could you consider using people's favorites instead? Since they're public, already wore by someone and you can see just part of the items used so I don't see a any problem with that. Sure we can move them to favorites. We used to consider that outfits are avatars that are being shown to public, but having outfits that were never equipped does make sense. Quote: Games/Featuresalright guys, there's been too much speculation between users and my anxiety is through the roof-- what are you gonna do about the difference in plat to gold involving lake kindred drops? are you going to lower the gold amount you get or raise th platinum amount you get? (those who use lake kindred all the time and use it as their main income would love to know!) The platinum granting system is governed by a series of code that balances out payout between features, and payout based on marketplace prices. Over time there will be changes to the payout that changes on a day to day basis, and if the payout is still lagging too far behind, we will go in and make some changes manually.

August 15th, 2017: Lanzer whalewatcher Lake KindredWere you guys planning on taking out charge orbs from lake kindred? I recall someone saying they'd be taken out but it hasn't happened yet so i wasn't sure if something happened to prevent that from happening or if it was forgotten I thought it had happened already. I'll talk to the art team who handles the item grant again. codemonkey37179 X_Gokai-Okuzuko_X Features/GamesAny updates on when the summer event and LK update are coming? It's already the middle of August, summer's almost over! Yep, the middle of August, but we've got a whole month of summer left. So probably sometime in the next month. Either that or we are going to just roll Summer, Halloween, and Christmas all together into one big massive event! Just kidding wink Lanzer LadyThornRose Games - Lake KindredCould we get an ETA on the LK update that you said was coming "soon" all the way back in May? And the Amulet Slot Reroll potion that was promised back in March? I think it should be out this month. We finally got the art asset but now we need to finish with Gaia Bulletin.

August 29th, 2017: Lanzer Sailor Buffy Lake KindredWill you remove charge orbs from Lake Kindred completely? We still get them from Kin gifts and Zen Garden. Yes there are still a couple here and there, we should be rid of them later this week. codemonkey37179 LadyThornRose codemonkey37179 LadyThornRose Azura Meira Soooo... are questions about LK being ignored in this round? There's a lot on the first pages that have not been addressed, but questions on later pages have. Not getting LK questions answered is pretty normal for AtS because the one staff member who can work the game doesn't attend AtS and doesn't like talking to users, according to Lanzer a few weeks ago. Expect to ask the same questions five weeks in a row before getting a vague response. sweatdrop Whoa!! He likes the users he is just kinda shy. I wasn't saying that he doesn't LIKE users, but that Lanzer said he doesn't like TALKING to users. I don't think any staff dislike users! He doesn't like TALKING. Great guy though! codemonkey37179 Azura Meira LOL @ this getting addressed but not the actual LK questions (with a few exceptions) Well, because we don't know the LK answers. Code works a bit differently than a lot of workplace stuff. I left Gaia about a month after the LK code started. I worked on just the very start of it. Lanzer had already left a year before that. We all manage our own stuff and help each other out where needed. Gaia is a big site. No one (not even Lanzer) can have all the answers in their head all the time. Lionheart was working on the currency project for a long time. He is quite passionate about Lake Kindred though and I'm sure he will update as soon as he can.

September 12th, 2017: Lanzer ElegantlyLuminous Hi, everyone! Games -- Lake KindredWill there be a Lake Kindred portion of the Halloween event this year or, failing that, could we please have the kin, kandy, and seed drops be reinstated in the Labs? A lot of us were really disappointed that LK wasn't included in this summer event and even though we understand why, it would still be nice to see something, however small, for the next event. edit: Also, a belated thank you for capitalizing "events" and "manga." It's much appreciated! This Halloween will have a zOMG tie-in but not LK unfortunately. However I'll ask about new kins for you guys. Lanzer Twisted Lady Games-KindredThe potions to change a kin's amulet slots were added to the MP months ago, but there's still no way to actually get them. When can we expect to see them? We can increase the drop rate, let me talk to Lionheart. Lanzer Lionheart said that it should be out real soon. Sorry to keep you waiting!

October 3rd, 2017: Lanzer Chrystal Liena Lake KindredSince Lake Kindred is not going to be involved in the next Halloween event, would it be possible for the Gaia Lab and Gaia Lab Open areas to receive a small update? Like bringing back the Halloween Kandy and Pumpkin Seeds along with adding some CIs? I'll look into that. The team do want to add more LK stuff outside of the event. Lanzer Shrimp_Man Lake KindredCan someone tell Lionheart that the daily gifts are still granting 5 Charge Orbs? We cleaned the grants quite a few times but some still fell through the crack! I'll tell LionHeart after this. Thanks for reporting. it amy Dragon_Fire2016 hello my question is on lk?why couldnt when you get the items if ur right answering the avi items???? I think what you're interacting with is a form of CAPTCHA The box is asking you to choose an item that is shown on the avatar, to prove that you aren't some sort of robot. It does not grant you that item.

October 24th, 2017: codemonkey37179 Shrimp_Man GamesI saw last week something about fixing HTML5 hanging when you switch to a new tab, does that mean I can finally actually use LK on my Firefox when I have all my other tabs or do I still have to use Chrome? I'm going to suggest using Chrome for now. Yuroppa Jisen Meizuki Yuroppa Queen of Memories Tickets Is there a chance that you could rerelease opal tickets so people could create their own kins? Unfortunately the Kindred Opal Ticket has been retired. They will no longer be sold or released. [ edits Yuroppa's response to bold the word "released"] It's bad enough that I'm aware that Opal Ticket is retired. But to never come back again, even if it gets revised just sadden me more. gonk It's always possible for a ticket to come out of retirement, or to return in a new form! But at the moment, we do not have any plans for kindred-related tickets. Lanzer glengrin Lanzer The Black Heretic Games- Lake KindredSo I know there won't be a Lake Kindred portion to the Halloween event, but will there be a Lake Kindred part to the Christmas event this year? Sorry Lionheart had been busy with the forum work and didn't get time to release the LK halloween event yet. I'll ask him again today. So to confirm, there is actually an LK Halloween event this year? Everyone was so sure there wouldn't be. You're going to see a lot of very happy people if there is one. Sorry the short answer is no. There might be a chance that Lionheart can find time to do it, but no guarantees. Yuroppa Kuro Kori Ryu KindredSo I know the Kin seals are dead and gone...not going to be released again... But what about the kin that were created with them (aside from the Capture Seal)? If I recall correctly, the rules stated that they may be released again at some point...and I dont remember ANY becoming sold out (or getting below 100 units available for that matter) Would rereleasing the user recolored/created kin be possible, especially for the newer players and players who didn't get a chance to get them the first time around? I can pass along the suggestion to the right people! Lanzer ElegantlyLuminous Games -- Lake KindredCould we maybe see Waffles as a kin or, alternatively, a recolor of Gure the Cat in Waffles' colors? It'd be cute! Waffles is just so adorable. emotion_kirakira Waffles would be cute but I doubt he can deal any damage sweatdrop

November 14th, 2017: Lanzer ElegantlyLuminous Events -- Black FridayLast ATS, one of you lovely staff members mentioned that there are a few kin currently being made-- thanks for that! It'll be nice to see something new. However, that got me to thinking: will there be any kin, either brand new or recolored, featured in this year's Black Friday sale? They might not make it in time for Black Friday, I'll need to check with the art team first. Lanzer OV8ION GamesCan we expect holiday events coming up this December for zomg and Lake Kindred? There's a small event in zOMG, and I'll need to check with Lionheart to see if there's something for LK.

November 21st, 2017: [NPC] Gaia Staff Welcome Back! Quote: Games - Lake KindredUsers have been asking for over a year now for some LK RIG rotation. Usually at least four different users ask about it every AtS and get no response. The previous staff once mentioned the possibility, and it would be great if that could be seen through to help keep the game interesting and to prove to players that the game hasn't been forgotten/abandoned. Autumn Trunks and Autumn Fishing Holes are big on peoples' lists. Spooky RIGs added to the labs would also be cool as well as new RIGs added to Milky Way, etc. Please show LK and the LK community some love! We'll keep it in mind! Lanzer DSDragon star Will there be two new Black Friday kins like there were in the last two years this year ? I'm afraid we don't have kins for sale this year. I don't recall the art team talking about one.
