Features?

Hello!!! I'm just wondering when the images for the achievements from the Vol2 are going to be fixed. I would really like to display the images we worked hard to get them. Thanks!!!

We'll be fixing this soon!

Is there any chance that we could customize our own post style?
(like instead of the light blue dashed border in the whisper option, we could change it into another color)

Maybe not customize per user, but we might be able to do more post styles.

Shops - Genkimix

Might there some day be a way to spend Gaia Cash as store credit at Genkimix? Or does the fact that you don't fully own Genkimix make this impossible? If it can be done, it could be a valuable feature for Angel Subscribers.

Sorry this isn't possible.

Do you ever plan on rereleasing Kindred that have been in past rigs, chance boxes, etc. that you cannot obtain anymore? I am currently hunting for [Kindred] Bom Bom the Bunny and that was released back in November 2015 in a chance box. I'm sure there are many other Kindred that were in past rigs/boxes that haven't seen the light of day since the rig/box has left the cash shop and I would like to see them be rereleased too

That's something we can discuss.

Games: LK

Are you gonna do any more updates to the amulets section of lake kindred? at the moment anyone messing around with them for the first time could be disappointed really easily since there's no in-game notifications saying you can't trade or evolve kins that have amulets on them. The evolution thing caught me out recently and I just ended up buying a new kin because removing the amulets was too expensive.

We'll take a look into it!

When will the achievements for the Gaia Gatcha v2 be fixed? Thank you.


I think we just found the missing graphics or figured out what happened to it. It should be fixed this week.

Hello! I'm wonderin' when are we goin' to get the achievement for when we redeem the Gaia Box tickets. It's been 9 months and we have yet to be granted the achievement. Also, we were supposed to have a chance to win a perfect parcel. (It was in the announcement) When will that happen? Gaian's spent money and or gold to get these tickets and we were promised those and yet nothin'. I'm not tryin' to be rude about it, but as I said it's been almost 9 months. Thank you.

Those should be getting granted, I'll ask and follow up with that.

You said last week that you'd get emails out to everyone about their merchandise tickets by the end of the month (this Friday). How is that going?

On track to have it done!

We're setting up the test environment right now, it's a big feature so we have to test it on a completely different set of servers. We should start testing soon

Question
Can you tell us about any possible features or updates to expect in the future of zOMG?


We are planning on two events coming up, one will probably end up being a permanent event. I can't share anything until the engineering and art work are half way done, but we're definitely working hard on this!

Any update on the ''HTTP 500'' problem when trying to purchase a subscription?
I am still trying to get it,but it's still not working. :/

We're still taking a look into it, sorry for the problems!

If Zero is around, could you give me an email address to whitelist so I can start getting emails from gaia again? Hotmail apparently really does not like Gaia.

I think Hotmail let's you whitelist the entire domain, so just @gaiaonline.com

I've asked this before and I know that the staff don't have to respond to repeat questions, but I didn't think it hurt anything other than my pride to ask this again.

Would it be possible for there to be an LK representative here at ATS? It doesn't have to be all the time, but it would be nice if we could sometimes see a response other than "We'll pass this along to Lionheart" or radio silence. The radio silence gets really unnerving after a while. sweatdrop Failing that, regulars updates to the Official LK Update Thread would be nice. (And because I'm me, here's a SF thread with some support.)


Actually last time he answered a question I just posted his answer on his behalf, but I'll ask him to drop by the feedback thread also.

Lionheart is busy with the economy project, hope he'll get some free time soon

Will LK be a part of the summer event, or should we abandon hope now? It would be nice to know in advance so that we don't get hopes up over the next few weeks only to be disappointed.


We are still discussing plans for the summer events, so we really don't know.

Q: When you guys gonna add a clear all button to the notifications? Or stop the spam of it. I give you some credit for lowering the amount done, but the problem is far from fixed. It's still kinda annoying. And none of you guys address it. Ever.


Clear all button sounds like a good feature to have, I can slip that through in-between projects.

Could there please be a "play again" option added to Jack's Surprise Bag 2k16? People who don't have self-control issues when it comes to RIGs* tend to open them in large batches and it gets kind of annoying to be constantly redirected back to the inventory home page. It's not a big deal and we'll survive if it doesn't happen, but, well, I like asking questions... so here we are.
*This is not me. My impatience wins pretty often.


I thought I added the play again button to all the possible items. I'll add that when I get a chance.

So hey, this is a nice change! I usually don't get home until late on Tuesdays, whereas Wednesdays I'm home all evening. I'm sure there's others who prefer knowing Ask the Staff is a regular Tuesday feature, but...

Perhaps you could make the non-Tuesday AtS a more regular thing? Like once a month, or once every couple of months?


Sure thing, we can definitely change things up every once in a while.

Have you guys considered making a draft button for forum users?

It hurts my soul sometimes when I lose my posts, and it would be pretty nice to have a draft or something like that to avoid losing walls of texts that I've written haha.


Oh okay, I can do that. Let me add that to my list. Yeah I hate it when I time out and lose my post.


How about having the form auto-save every 15-30 seconds on top of having an explicit save button. Though, I'm not sure when the draft would be removed from storage, because if the user never submits the post or they go to another thread... conflict of drafts? Unless you allow allow one draft per-thread? neutral


I'll implement it similar to GMail. Drafts are per thread, but on Gaia it'll probably be temporary, until we actually build a page that can access all drafts.

I hope that we can have a live stream. Currently planning through that.

Could we get npc character pages/ref sheets (like a lil page like a wiki?)

It would be so useful for competitions and getting to know the world of Gaia.


I would love to see that too. We should have our own Wiki. Though that'll take some time as we still have quite a bit to take on as far as features go.

Option to disable item "previews" or descriptions from avatar customization searches?
Example:
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Make that look like this:
User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.

Or an option to disable descriptions entirely.

That's odd, is it blocking any feature?

It's not blocking any feature sweatdrop It just stretches the page downwards and it's sort of annoying when descriptions for items vary in length and I lose my place on the items I'm previewing. It's honestly just a pet peeve, and I'm wondering if it'd be possible to have an option disable item descriptions and just have the MP links.


This feature's been added to the wishlist. When I work on dress up next time I should be able to add it.

can we get a link to guilds in the app? after all guilds have been brought up to the same coding as regular forums right? and there in the app. so can we get guilds on there too? maybe get some more attention to them


Maybe eventually. We certainly want to bring as much as Gaia as we can into the app. Right now we are focusing on Inventory, Dress Up, Shops and Forums. After those 4 are done we can think about what comes next.

Can we have a setting in our settings that automatically disabled all of the like/dislike voting things for all of your threads? I know there is an option to disable it when you make the thread, but you don't always remember to check it, or when you do, you preview the post and forget to re-check it.


Hmm, I can make it so that the preference will stick. Shouldn't be hard to do. I'll add to the to-do list.

Matching the back panel to the banner graphics doesn't work if the banner uses bright colors like Lucky Catch did for a week. Many of us found it very painful and distracting; especially those of us who are light and/or glare sensitive. It actually caused headaches. Could the back panel be toned down when the banner is very bright? It shouldn't be hard to do.


Okay, I've given that feedback to the art team. 3nodding

I do plan on making forum options stick, so that things such as post style and voting preferences will be saved.

Item artists -- could we have some more clothing mods to cut collars into shirts?

Not anything crazy like a plunging neckline, but... it seems like there's a lot of items with high-collared shirts. I think a lot of them would look cute as a low-collared casual top!


YESSSSS

I love clothing mod! I'll pass it along!

even if you ignore someone you still get guild announcements from them if you're in there guild. can someone please explain why this is possible when all other features of the ignored person are blocked? i have received them from users on ignore and others have received them from me on ignore so i know this can happen. can this be fixed somehow so if you have someone on ignore they cant receive your guild announcements?


Sounds like a bug. I'll add it to the bug list, should be an easy fix.

I love having a voting based ranking system. Having specific forums built that way will be fun!

Achievements - NPCEvent

Many long whiles ago, Gaians were supposed to be given an achievement for participating in at least one of the 31 NPC-run contests. The forum was archived with promises to grant the achieves later.

There have been a few events since then where someone pretty much had to grant the achievements by hand.

Question: Is staff working on a script to grant this achievement and be able to grant future forum achievements more easily?


I do know that we have more achievements coming. I'll definitely look into better ways of granting achievements.
