Tori-Wells [Their reply was not that kind, I will admit, but they do have some logic, and though their response was... cruel... it is understandable.
I wouldn't necessarily classify this as 'racism,' but laziness. They don't feel the need to make ears for the Zombies/Grombies, because, as they said, they are the minority.]
But all the 'superior skins' are a minority of people if you think about it.
I don't see hundreds of platinum or flame skinned people around Gaia. I see far more Grombies than any other types, surely they are a majority of the minority?

The Iron Magus Yeata Zi The Iron Magus C:>
Thanks for signing, guys. Though apparently it doesn't matter...
Gaia just doesn't give a damn.

I also sent PMs to a few people of import, and they just told me to stop spamming their inbox. How can it be spamming if I only send them one message each?
I just feel sick... Wow. Kinda assholeish. I'm gonna sign. Have you messaged Fleep or JK? I've found them to be both really nice. C:>
No. Do you think I should? More importantly, will I be accused of spamming if I do? neutral 
It wasn't spam in the first place to be honest, plus Fleep or JK will be even less likely to call something spam. They reply to almost all their messages as far as I know.

Well, I talked to Juno about it. Juno The Iron Magus C:>
Although your journal does worry me. It makes it seem like you believe we're going to be erased.
But that's all beside the point. The whole reason that the other grombies and I are upset, is that the announcement promises ears for "every body type." Which makes us think that either gaia has forgotten us, or that they don't consider us important enough to warrant a slight change in the wording to make the message more honest.
Put simply, the announcement was a lie. And whatever excellent reasons you and the rest of the staff have given for not releasing ears for us, this issue has not been addressed.
It would go a long way if the Gaia team would just issue a public apology for the faulty wording of the announcement.
Of course, you probably have nothing to do with that sort of thing. So would you please pass along my message to someone who does, or just tell me their username and I will message them myself. Thank you for writing! I understand your concerns. Like I mentioned in my journal, I can't predict what the future of the existing Grombie Skins are. I highly doubt that they will be forced to be deleted - the only viable reason I can think of for that would be if they were causing technical issues that were beyond correction... which, based on my understanding of the current system, is not really an issue. The only other issue that I see is that, if Grombies do end up disappearing in the future (since they are no longer available), we would have to deal with these Grombie accessories. Do we keep them, or delete them, as there are no counterparts? We have a lot of things to think about for the future. The "every skin type" part in the announcement was probably my fault - I should have been more specific to the person who wrote the announcement, as I usually provide the information prior to any item release. With that considered, I do apologize to the Grombie community for that miscommunication. However - I also do believe that this a temporary situation. When the system is upgraded, and if Grombies still exist by then, I will make a personal effort on updating all skins with all appropriate skin-tone accessories. I've have a lot of Grombies PM me about this issue, and after corresponding with them, I feel that we've come to a good middleground - I hope this is the same for you, as you've been the most vocal Grombie I've spoken with, at this point. You guys have been through a lot, and I want to help you. Please know that you are not being neglected, nor forgotten, and that I'm juggling everything I can as best as I can. - Juno I suppose I feel a bit better about this whole mess now.

I bet the first people who responded to you as "spam" were probably just being overloaded by complaints and had a minor freakout.

Yeah I was thinking about that! They have all those stupid Superior Form skins, but why not ears for Grombies and Zurg, who have been here for MUCH longer?! And as far as the ones for the different skin tones... mine don't even match right.

Hmm.. I'll sign it.. but I'm pretty certain that those body types... weren't even supposed to be around anymore. lol I'm pretty certain that when grombies first appeared and they had that mysterious liquid that everyone was supposed to drink it... afterall, they gave one out free to every acct... I think it was a glitch that allowed them to still be around *shrugs*... just speculation from what I somewhat poorly remember here XD

Okay, just to point out. If we "weren't supposed to be here anymore," do you REALLY think they would have given us the choice? No. They didn't NEED to give us the vial. If they had wanted us all eliminated, we would be gone. After all, they killed the original zombies by force.
They gave us the vial so we would have a CHOICE.
