Hello everyone and welcome!!!
Quote:
Shake a leg items don't fit with anything! Its more like a pants item than a bare mod item since it won't work with any skirt or shorts. It can't work as casual pants either because most colors are natural skin tones. I was so disappointed with it. You can still see the panty line when its with another undergarment. I hope gaia improves this other wise whats the point of having this item?
Bare leg mods have been highly requested since our Right to Bare Arms CI and we have been trying to figure out a way to make these available for users. Unfortunately, since we are a pixel-based dress-up system, we are unable to make existing pants that are conformed to the default leg stance to fit with these new legs. The compromise we came to is as you described: pants that look like skin. Many of our skirts are on the same default layer as pants, so they are bumping these legs. However, each leg included a white tights and black tights version for the maximum usability, and additional adjustments regarding layering with skirts is still in development. These are a novel item, so it may take a little time to get it right, so please be patient while we do the best we can to offer bare legs for Gaians to equip!

It would be cool if Gaia changed the tipping option and made it possible for users to tip however much or little they wanted. That way the person getting tipped would know how much the tipper liked their post.
I'm on the fence about whether or not a minimum or maximum tip cut off should be set, but that could be a possibility if there needed to be limits.

We would like to add this in as well but have no plans to do so at this time.

Gaia’s use of Flash: With a higher percentage of users, including myself, who do everything primarily on a mobile device and may not even have access to a PC, this is troublesome. Particularly with events. I won't get any of the items because the forum battle system uses Flash. This was unnecessary during the previous Halloween event. Why are you doing this now?
There is no particular reason, events have always used a variety of mediums and mechanics. The site in general is not designed for mobile though this is something we do want to change moving forward. We will definitely keep these concerns in mind for future events.

OMG $20,000 for a Saphire Ticket??? Is that a typo??
No it isn't- the Sapphire Ticket is actually $20,000. However we have made it available to win through the Black Friday 2k14 Grab Bag and previously in Generators.
Quote:
I'm happy that we have some new tickets being sold during this sale. But can we please have the FAQ's for said tickets put in the project custom thread?
With people being able to CONFIRM EXACTLY what they can do with the new tickets, you may receive more sales.

Manga/Events (NPCs)
First off, thank you for updating the manga and having NPCs interact with us in the forums! It was great to see that the manga hasn't been forgotten, and it was a blast seeing the NPCs posting and quoting users. I hope we get to more of both in the future, as these features bring me a lot of joy.
Onto the question. Recently, Cindy Donovinh posted asking us for ideas about future community updates (which reminded me that she used to be around more often...). Would it be possible for her to occasionally conduct interviews with various NPCs? The choice for who to interview could be entirely random, or it could be voted on by users in polls, or it could feature an NPC who is currently heavily involved in something happening on the site (an event or a RIG relating to that NPC). I think this would be a great opportunity to showcase some of the NPCs we don't get to see very often any longer to find out where they are now and what they're doing. It would be interesting to do something like this for some of the zOMG! NPCs - many folks who loved the game are rather concerned about them!

Features - Aquariums
Hello, Gaia Staff!
Thank you for updating Aquariums! Unfortunately, due to a glitch, I cannot play Booty Grab at the moment. It is a glitch where when I click on a tank that says 'Booty Grab' on it, it loads the game aquarium tank, but does not load the background or fishes in the user's tank so I cannot play Booty Grab.
Besides the game glitch in Booty Grab, there are problems with the Aquariums feature itself.
Every time I go to the Aquarium feature, it is very laggy that it takes too much time to feed your fish because of the lag. It is also so laggy that I cannot put up to 15 fish in my tank and only put a certain amount of fish in before the lag takes over and freezes the process of putting fish into my tank. Turning off the music does not help the lag in Aquariums as a whole.
Also, if you look up, "Aquarium lag" in the "Search" bar, there are several other Topic Results about the lag issue in Aquariums.
My question is: Will the Aquariums feature be updated anytime in the future?
I would really like to take care of my tank and I do not care about Overseer rewards at this point, but an update to take care of the Aquariums feature's lagging issues would be wonderful. C:

Unfortunately, right now the only way to see the artwork is to open a CI and play it. The CIs themselves never disappear! The art threads are often made by a kind gesture by other users who have purchased a CI and making the images publicly viewable for everyone, and are allowed (and encouraged!) by Gaia. If you're hankering for an art thread, make your own and ask for fellow Gaians to help you build a complete library!

I'm not the original asker, but for me, I would love it to be longer because I am a serial donator / gifted and would like to have a longer record of it. Sometimes I blow through the gift history in about fifteen minutes, and it would be good to see it longer for my 'records'.

-Sarah
It's something we have thought about it, but we haven't decided to implement. Users should be able to list an item for whatever amount they want, most of the time when a user sets a price for a super high amount it typically doesn't get purchased. Most users who price items for incredibly high prices are doing it to show off the item, rather than trying to sell it.

All of the bundles on the site should still have tickets available. We don't re-release them due to the fact that payouts change and to allow the artists the chance to work on new projects.
Don't meant to be a dog with a bone sorry >>
Just to clarify, does that mean that there are chances to win tickets in those bundles or a definite ticket available and waiting in those bundles? (I dont want to give people false hope that there is 100% def a ticket available in them, when its instead that there is a chance to win one)

Rest assured that we aren't stealing the money from you. Simply file a billing ticket and provide some information about the purchase so we can research it and credit you the Gaia Cash. Not receiving your Gaia Cash for a purchase is usually a result of something stopping the process between PayPal and Gaia when the Gaia Cash is trying to get granted (such as hitting the back button on your browser, refreshing the page, stopping the page load, etc).

This wasn't a huge issue to me until the kickstarter achievement with the princess title came out. I spent the gold to get the title, and I was terribly, terribly disappointed to see that princess was in the adjectival section. I want to be a timid princess. I wasted hundreds of billions of gold on it because I assumed that princess would act as a nominal.

I'm sorry that the achievement did not have the titles as you were expecting. You are correct that Princess as a prefix it's a little out of place. Sadly, as this achievement has already been given out and is in use, changes to it will not be made, nor will the achievement restrictions be lifted. What we can do though is add that title as a suffix in a future achievement.

Sure, why not! If you're in dire need of a special coloring you can request it with a rainbow ticket as well.

Some really dark purple hair and some dark green hair would be nice and I mean really dark and not in the weird shades like Galaxy Purple or whatever color that green is in most wig RIGs. We need more twin tails, braided twin tails and more regular braids in these colors too.
Can we get some?? PLEASE??
Having these for Paws would be great too.

Would it be possible to add more general achievements like for forums, or equipping items? Maybe an achievement for collecting paper/bugs, trading in trash or fish, buying tattoos, etc. There's so much to do around the site, adding fun little easter eggs in the form of achievements would give old and new users alike more reasons to explore every site feature.

Specifically Duplicate Marketplace Item Listings. As I mentioned in my Bug Report thread here, there are a few items which have more than one item number.

Dino March (Any) = http://www.gaiaonline.com/marketplace/itemdetail/10078417
I realize it's been an issue for a while (I was personally a victim to it a few years ago and didn't even think about reporting it), but now with the extreme raise of item prices, it could pose a serious problem with scamming, both intentionally and unintentionally.
A seller could link a buyer to the listing with a higher ABP and/or no LBP, while in reality, the item may have several listings in the Marketplace at a cheaper price.
Is there any way you can fix this issue or consider looking into it again (if it was indeed already pointed out before) ?
And should someone consider themselves a "victim of scamming" due to this issue, would we report it?
Thank you all for your hard work!

It boils down to the Marketplace only recognizing item IDs, as opposed to item names. There may be multiple items with the same name but have different IDs, as you point out. We'll take a look into this and see what we can do to address it.
If a user feels that there was a user that maliciously tricked them into being scammed, they can file a scam report with evidence showing that the user had the intent to scam you. Otherwise they can file a Help Center ticket and we can look into reversing the transaction if it was an accident.

In the Daily Treat (free GC offer) there is sometimes a message that appears saying there is no offer available, but that we can click a card to receive some gold. This gold is a very small amount, considering inflation (50g - 200g or so).
Will you make it so that the payout for the gold option is to scale with the % inflation or make it give a Daily Chance item as a reward instead of a paltry amount of gold?

This is regarding GC sale typos. It was advertised as 35% off, but it was really just 30% a day or so ago. Please exercise due diligence when making your multitudinous announcements for majority of them do involve actual money. I don't like getting the feeling that I was being fooled.

In some nice Jewel tones or the more darker richer colors....such as Sapphire, Amethyst, Onyx, etc. I am tired of pink, white and bright pastels.
I loved the sweater for: Minty Skate Date, but it wasn't in a color I would wear.
I would love me some shirts, sweaters, Etc. that come down to around the thighs that are not connected to arm mods, in colors that I would wear. Because I am so not a pastel type of person and please no cosmic or galaxy purple....

This question deals with GoFusion Charms in unopened Caches.
You have included the Heart Charm in the Philosopher's Cache as a rare drop.
And it's pretty awesome because it makes owning GoFusion items more realistic.
But Diamond Charms and Star Charms are still only available in the Daily Chance or Cash Shop.
They are still really hard to get.
I think that by including them in Philosopher's Cache's as rare drops would help a lot of people out.
You don't have to make them super common, make the drop rate extremely difficult to get.
It would cause a lot of people to sink gold in the Bifrost too because they would want a shot at getting these Charms.
Good gold sink and it makes GoFusion more realistic.
We all win here.
My question is...
Would you please do this?

I like bidding on Flynn's Plunder, but there are some items that just dominate her store, like game items for example. Is there anyway that other NPCs could get in on the action? Specifically Mirai and Barret with their fish and decorations, Crecento with formulas and rare components, and Bildeau with rare housing items?
My idea on this goes beyond just those three NPCs, I've got a whole NPC auction house planned out.

Games Booty Grab
Any comment on last week's Aquarium Snowflakes glitch?
For those unaware, if a user had an Aquarium Snowflakes decoration in inventory,
the user's tank became ungrabbable - if another user tried to play Booty Grab during
a glow period, the fish didn't show up for the game.
It was disheartening that despite several threads in several forums, staff did not address
the issue at all, and it was a user who figured out the solution and told affected users how
to fix it. Then the rest of the GA community spread the word, all without (to the best of my
knowledge) a peep from the staff. While last week was a short work week, an acknowledgement of
the problem with perhaps a noncommittal "We're aware of the problem and are looking into it"
would have been appreciated.

In response to the Shake A Leg question. A work-around could be to make them equip like tights, boots or stockings. There are plenty of items that change your legs without being pants and may be equipped with a skirt or underwear of the user's choosing. Also, in the future, maybe consider removing the shoes. I was a little disappointed they weren't actually completely bare legs.

Hi there! This was something we considered but it would limit the expressiveness of the legs considerably and cause really strange glitching with regards to dual equipping with slimming pants, which we have a lot of. We decided for the first release of bare legs to just try the skin-colored-pants version but your version is definitely possible for future if bare legs are requested!

They could be utilized to specifically target you cash buyers and relieve the rest of us from certain "specials". Your cash buyers are the ones complaining least about the announcement spam and are more attentive to your sales. I'm thinking special discounts / items could be granted randomly within them if they were updated constantly. "2 hours only, additional 10% discount on anything in the CS - click here" aww I missed it - aw I don't have enough GC for that, better buy a little bit more GC - buys. "Reward granted - you got a LQI recolor"

Making them maybe $75 max tiers each, or whatever seems suitable for the business. Most of us only get paid every two weeks, so its discouraging to miss out on some of these. Plus it encourages a consistent income demand for Gaia.
