Lol, like Gaian retirement homes? razz

Dude, if it allows me to swear my head off, as needed, and actually talk about actual adult s**t, then yeah. I want my damned rocking chair bitches.


Oh I wish you could tip guild posts. rofl

Have you seen the 'new' HRW shop? They've gone back and re-priced all the items. Remember those 100G undies? They're now 35K. Enjoy.

Whelp. Thank Gaia. I will never purchase another gold shop item again, in all likelihood, as I have not purchased cash in a year and a half now. Just wow. The funny thing is I stopped buying cash on a lark. When I came back from abroad last July (I was only gone a little over a month) I saw how many cash shop announcements there were. Like, one every two-three days. I thought it was unusually excessive (how naive I was!) and went: "I'm not going to buy my collectible until they go a week without pushing cash." then, "Five days.", "Four", "Three?", "Seriously Gaia?"

It was the beginning of the end. True to my word I've not spend a cent since that day.

I didn't look. I am surprised they jacked the price up that much. I figured all gold shop items would start getting raised up. When you can sell a free piece of paper from Towns for over 1 million g, it's like the gold shop stuff is free in comparison. I think I'm starting to learn my way around the new economy. When I got back on a few weeks ago I had just over 500k, now I have 4 billion. All the items I've sold are mostly junk from DC and Towns.

Yeah, I have 22 mil. That's it. That was from right before the economy really inflated. >_< I haven't been active on the markets, buying or selling, since then. I see no reason to. With the way things are going I could sell something today and tomorrow couldn't afford the same item with the money I sold it for. The longer I wait, the more valuable, and consequently useless the gold is. Thank god my account is old enough I pretty much have everything I could reasonably need.

As for my dream avvis? They'll stay in tektek. xD The prices on even a skirt...

I can't really comment since I'm still on but if I could I'd commend you for even trying to adapt to this nonsense.

It's pretty outrageous! I just do what I can. The items and gold and such are really just a means for interacting with people for me. I do bump contests for the socializing aspect of it. None of it really matters. Which is why I won't be spending any of my hard-earned cash on it. I don't even watch the free videos. GC does not matter to me.

It's said tho' since it used to. ._. I remember when cash first came out. Dude, before that? Going to the post office to mail in my little $2.50 money orders to the office. Those red scarves they had one time, I bought like $20 worth just because I thought they were cool and I had come to love Gaia so much by that time. There was nothing like it and there isn't anything else like it. Bah.

Life moves on and things change, not always for the better. I kind of wish the new management would just get bored and leave. Then a new team can come in and actually get s**t done. Work on the old features and stop flooding us with useless ish.

Fun short story: I was messing with Go Fusion and clicked the 'buy charms' button for S&Gs but it errored out saying the item couldn't be found. I then decided to try to look for the bundle just to see how much they were bleeding people for... couldn't. I just couldn't. That cash shop is beyond packed and no amount of sorting will ever make that mess manageable.

I know! Every time I look in there I have no idea what I am looking at. And everything comes in multiples. The pictures are not very explanatory. Just like you I don't have time to read hover text for ALL of the items in there!

Yup. Somehow, someway, Gaia has managed to outcompete with itself. There is literally so much junk in there it's impossible to not only choose but to buy as much as you would want providing you were willing to buy anything at all. I remember when there were only like, five items max in there...

It cracks me up how they don't respond to the multiple threads on the same issues in SF but the moment something unfavorable comes to light they delete threads or ban accounts. The l33tgate thing was interesting. It literally proves that the admins are dumping illegal (gold they generated from nothing) into the economy and buying things from users. They're also magicking things into existence to sell. The whole tipping point, ironically, came when they bought an item for a ridiculous price from a user who only posted the item so others could see it. No one had that much gold. Yet an admin account, later linked to said admin, that was only a few weeks old or sommat had enough to pay for it.

This thread is just full of admin excuses.

What makes me sad these days is that all I can do is complain about Gaia. I can't, like, chat about that cool new feature, update or thread. Nothing is cool anymore because it's all dated and tanking. >_<

I'm curious how the zomg update will come out.

I read a little bit about the gigantic purchase made. I definitely want to read more into stuff like that. It's just really interesting.

Riddled with cash shop nonsense. -rolls eyes-

Check SF a lot. The threads will pop up but the admins will keep deleting them because of the bad press. Kind of like when you say Goldemort's name and accounts get banned.

That's what I was thinking too. Anything to get people to buy more GC.

Dudette, I saw your avi and, for a brief moment, my heart actually lightened because I thought they were event items. Like, new ones. xD Silly me. As though they do anything close to the old, free fun events of the past. Only more cash shop items and kickstarters.

Checked out Tentacl yet? I'm wildly curious to hear tales from someone who's ventured into the depths and come out without too many diseases. Pfft.

Aww! Lol. I am holding out hope for a good Halloween event. 3nodding I've got way old school grab bags in my storage. I was surprised to see they weren't going for more in the MP.

And no way am I even entertaining the idea of Tentacl. lol

What do you think of the staff alert about raising the booty grab max payout?
