Why is Lake Kindred Lite so hard to find? Maybe just put a second link right next to it with a - in between that just says Lite or something? Any consideration is appreciated!

Lake Kindred lite was designed for mobile. When using a mobile device, the main page will redirect you to the lite version. It was not actually meant to be the version accessible otherwise.

Could somebody please explain how stats in Lake Kindred work???

Health: When this runs out, your Kin will will faint and the battle will end.
Magic: This tells you how much magic you can use for Skills and Magic. When it runs out you won't be able to use them.
Kin Loyalty Points: This tells you how long your Kin has before it reaches the next level.
Player Points: This tells you how long until your Player level increases.

I don't quite understand the purpose of having recent RIGs and Tiers soulbound. Some people want to sell or trade the items as they are rather than risking opening them or having to choose. Why was this done to items like the Pleasant Present and Vivid Enchantment Tiers. Personally, I detest playing chance items so I sell whenever I get one so I can get gold. Having cockblocked the option with soulbinding, it makes me less likely to buy things that will put me into the above situation. Sure, I realize they are just extras for people purchasing, but you've established a situation where people do like to time their purchases when they can make the most bang for their buck. But, if people find such restrictions unsavory, they will be less likely to go out of their way to hit tiers or GC purchases for coupons. I know I probably would hold off engaging in that activity anymore since it no longer holds a desirable advantage anymore.

I definitely want the silly soulbinding removed in past and current tiers and RIGs. If it's a method to force people to buy GC instead of getting them via gold, then it's definitely a sucky way to go about things.

As designed, sorry! We do allow you to sell what you get when you open the item, but not the package itself.

Can La Victoire get a serious organizing/updating? The filters for zOMG Items, Happy Birthday, Housing, Romance, and Gifts show nothing, and the Fun and Chance filters don't appear to have been updated in quite some time.

We definitely agree that this needs to be re-organized, we'll be doing this as soon as we can but it isn't a high priority at the moment.

I have noticed that Gaia has increasingly begun to get involved with groups and guilds across the site, which I am really pleased to see! Would you consider teaming up with the Fishaholics Anonymous guild for a sort of "re-release" party when the fishing game is complete?

Amazingly enough, this is NOT a question about anything Bunny Ranger related! xd

Anyways, I was wondering if for the chat feature if you can add a sound whenever someone posts in the chat room! Now the reason I ask is because sometimes I'm in a chat room with friends and while I do things in the background, I can forget to check to see if someone has posted and because of that It often is a few minutes before I even think about responding.

Along with this there should also be the option to turn the sound on and off since there are going to be some people as we know that may abuse the sound and use it to annoy people.


No plans at the moment, but definitely a good idea.

Can we have a sticky in site feedback for the purpose of requesting items to be re-released in future RIG's? A lot of items have zero listings or very few listings and the inflation on some these items is insane. You can give guidelines on what items cant be re-released and what we can request.

About a month or so ago I asked about the inconsistencies with this sticky in the aquarium forum about onsite advertising and with what some mods are saying. The sticky says this...

" I like to bump with pictures... does this mean I can't?
Picture Bumps are inappropriate onsite advertising if they contain a link back to a thread or guild.
This is taking a low-content post and changing it to be an advertisement- there is the specific intent of increasing the number of people coming to their guild. This is not allowed.
The image alone is okay, it is the linking which is an issue of inappropriately advertising with referral links.
"

However bump shops get away with linked bumps, and some mods have even said that using linked images to bump is alright. You said that you would check the policy and get back with us about it but it hasn't happened. I don't want to accidentally break any rules due to this sticky and with what mods are saying... sweatdrop Can you please check this over and let us know what is allowed and what isn't?

Can you consider making less items that change with the avi’s base? Some people like to dress opposite of their avatars gender, so when an item comes out that would be fun to use (swimwear) it’s a bit annoying to have a boob mod attached to it. Or I've noticed leg mods sometimes change depending on base.

If not, could we not just have two different poses to reflect male vs female versions of the same pose to be usable on both bases?


It is our policy to keep the poses for both genders as alike as possible, but due to the differences in the base shapes and shading, we can't always make them exactly the same. Also, the chest mods are really popular, so they will just be popping up from time to time. sweatdrop

In the Temple Sealed Kickstarter, we've received small information about the Loyal Raffle Ticket. I understand that it gives us a chance to win the Citrine Ticket. However... Can you explain to us more about "exchange for staggering prizes?"

Because I don't know by "exchanging" if we need to collect # amount of tickets to exchange for a prize or be it similar to MC envelope/RIG/CI. sweatdrop


Other prizes include MCs, Bundles with exclusive Tier content and RIGs.


I think I should be more clear on the question. sweatdrop

What I'm trying to say is this: How do we exchange for staggering prizes?


Ah, I see. Rewards will be randomly assigned in our backend and doled out to users who have the tickets in their possession. Once that is done, they will be given a sellback value so that users can remove them from their inventory.

I been trying to use the money tree all week to earn Gaia cash but most of the videos won't even load. I have tried it on several different computers and I get the same problem every time. I know all my computers are fully updated in regards to flash players. Also the TV cash earner is not working with the one that you have to open up to 10 pop up windows. Is there some sort of bug in these systems?

Do you have ad-block? That is probably what is stopping it. Outside of that it is more than likely a problem with the ad provider not allowing you to do the offer.

Are we ever going to be able to delete old threads? I have a long list of threads, the game ended or quest was done. But they are just taking up space and I wonder why they don't let us delete them, like we can in the guilds.


Whether threads in a forum can be deleted depends upon the forum settings. As guilds are private and "owned" by the person who creates them, they have the permissions to delete what threads they want. The forums are public and are set up so only admins can delete the threads. There are also reporting reasons we don't allow Gaian's to delete the threads.

Something has been bothering me for a while with Kindred:

Does our kin level versus the one of the kin we are battling have any influence on the probabilities of getting a kin's egg?

If yes, at which level is it optimal? Same level? Up to only 2 levels above it?


No, it shouldn't make a difference what level or Kin you use. Its simply a random reward drop based on which Kin you defeat.

I love what you have done so far with our new Kindred game and the addition of you adding both the Grunny and the Prunny's. I was wondering if you would be doing the same for our dear Sno Yeti's? It would be awesome to have them included into kindred along with a possible evolution of what the ElfTech's did with them at S-Corp with the G-Virus. Just as how ElfTech247 described back in 2005.

ElfTech247
The Yeti testing has been going well. They are very responsive to weapon equipping. 137 has attested to their marksmanship. They will most certainly rival Jack's forces should he try and pull anything.

Finally, the G-Virus seems to have taken on some interesting properties. When chilled, as happens to all things in the artic, it seems to form a biomechanical bond. This is an interesting symbiotic relationship- the mechanics are powered by natural cellular energy, while the organic material seems to gain the added function of the mechanics. I am certain furthering this research will prove vital to our success in bringing Santa back to life.

Mrs. Claus has been very anxious as well. She wants this done and Santa alive. I keep telling her these things take time. Usually it results in her screaming at me for various reasons. We're going as fast as we can. Weapons attachment and upgrades have been succeessful, and the biological properties from yeti testing might be the breakthrough we need. I haven't slept much lately, but at least it will all be over soon.

ElfTech247
We didn't expect the Yetis to develop such aggressive tendancies when given a sample of the G-Virus. Two very curious things happened. We saw the symbiotic relationship form between animal and machine, but we also saw the Yeti gain an odd understanding of the weapon they were fused with. They suddenly knew how to use it like an expert. This is indeed very interesting; though it did result in the loss of security at the time.

Upon elimination of the problem Yetis, the mechanical parts fell from the lifeless bodies- perhaps they had nothing left to gain from their partner, or perhaps there was another factor at work. We will be looking into ways to implement this technology into the suit upgrades.

Santa has stabalized as well as someone in death can. His body has been prepared for reanimation. We are reasonably certain that the G-Virus, with the assistance of the mechanical suit, can bring Santa back to a fully functional level. We need about 2-3 more weeks for testing though, since we are not sure if this has any side effects we should be aware of.

As you can see I am very interested in S-Corp and the ElfTechs. I would love to see these experimental Sno Yeti's added also into Kindred like you did with the Grunny. whee

I don't know if I'd say it has no future, there have been a few time it was said it was going to die and yet there it still is. It may just need to go through it's next evolution.

***This is outside of the fact that it seems between .5 to 4% odds an Edwardian Shoe, which requires 1260 of for one formula, will drop. I OBVIOUSLY want those odds changed because after spending 22Bil+ just on 750 trunks and to have only 23 pairs is pretty bad considering I need equal parts for the formula. Even just upping the amount of pink and red shoes would be CONSIDERABLE help from "nearly impossible" to "difficult but obtainable"."


Thank you for compiling this list. We'll review the chances, of course some rarity is intentional, but we want everyone to be able to use Alchemy so some chances can stand to be bumped up.

Is it possible Kin could somehow be integrated into towns 2 in a similar way to zOMG summons? I'd really love to have Saplynx, or one of my other kin follow me around T2


This isn't likely. It was easier with the zOMG! summons as they were already flash files, all the was really required was resizing them and placing them near the avatar. The Kin however are png spritesheets which our Towns 2 is not currently setup to read and display for anything other than the Avatar itself, in addition they are missing some of direction images they would need to be able to go in all the directions the avatar could go.

Where do we post for item layering issues? Not bugs.

Reason being the Anti-bite mask has been layered wrong for a few years now and it is my favorite item (when layered correctly). I would like to post about it somewhere but not sure if I just post in the bugged items or if there is another place.


If you believe that the layering is wrong, please post here: http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/site-feedback/avatar-item-glitch-report-thread/t.69242947/
Please be aware that asking for a change does not always guarantee that it will be changed. We try to have the original artist make all changes to their item, to keep it working the way they intended. Also, many item types have specific layering we have to stick to in order for them to interact the best way they can with other items. That being said, I encourage you to still try posting there. It is always possible that it can be updated!

Would it be possible to set up an optional alert system for the Gaia blog? Make it like staff alerts, only blog alerts?


The problem is the alerts bubble is a tad bit ....full. We need to completely redesign how the alerting system displays methinks before we go adding more of them.

Features - Chat System Bug

Whenever I go into a widely used chat room (ie. The GCD Hangout), I have a crippling slow lag that doesn't go away and then crashed with a warning about a script that isn't working. This is very annoying that it is to the point of being unusable along with the long post history that I can't delete them to save space. Will you get rid of this tech dilemma?

Script specifically to the crash warning: http://w.cdn.gaiaonline.com/src/_/1395/pkg-gaia_core.js:8

Browser: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:40.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/40.0


We'll have to take a look and see what is going on.

I really hate to beat a dead horse but it seems I have to (although the first time I posted, I didn't follow the rules accordingly, sorry), to try and get a reply.
What's the status on when these two items will be released?

I'm pretty sure these were made for a sponsorship pitch that never went through, therefore we can never release it. Sorry about that. sad

Question:

Baby Golden Ticket can create a item car or bike like RIO Star (road rolla drive) and Dream Town ( Winger Thunder)?


To the best of my knowledge that is possible. Buuuuut I am not fully versed on all of the rules and the one who I would ask isn't available at the moment so I can't confirm that.

Sorry I'm not much help with this. sweatdrop

What is up with the wing stickers? You said they're supposed to be updated daily, but they haven't been changed since day six, several weeks ago! Will there be a way for us to get the majority of stickers that were never put up? It really is unfair that we have to miss out on so many of them because someone couldn't remember to update the grant.


Hmm, after looking into this it looks like somehow the grant links were broken. We will release a bundle with the stickers/charms for the missing days in an update soon. We'll let you know when they're coming out in a Staff Notice. Thanks for your patience on this!

In Lake Kindred, is it possible to consider filtering the avatars used for captchas? Some are way too hard to know which item is present.... especially in cluttered ones like this:

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.


Actually something I think would be a bit more feasible would be just to have a reload button the way most 3rd party captcha systems do.

Now that Lake Kindred has released we can start making the Golden Fragment Formula. Thank you for being so patient!

Hey....eye/face mods, the ones with multiple expressions, it'd be cool if ya'll made them with one specific color and then have a few recolors instead of the ones that are out now that have multiple eye colors in each style. Its kind of frustrating when you love the expression but the eye color doesn't match your character v.v And you should totally do green first wink emotion_awesome


Haha! Thanks for the suggestion!

Can you make recipes using the Kindred potions?


Yes, there are actually already some recipes that use the potions in Alchemy, but we can add more!

In Lake Kindred, I have yet to need to use a refresh potion and I get them incessantly. *eye twitch*

It would be nice to get more antidote potions, since it's possible to be poisoned early on but not need refresh. Maybe exclude refresh from the drop pool from the first stage please? Or increase the drop rate of antidote.

Especially since several of the new alchemy formulas require a number of them.


Thanks for the feedback- we'll make way more alchemy formulas that need Refreshing potions. ninja

Citrine Ticket it's for re coloring an old item, can it be used to convert an item to paw base? Or just recoloring, like OMG hats, halos, yadda yadda. If it already exists for the paw base of course. xp


Sorry, you cannot use that ticket to convert an item. You will have to pick an already existing item (that follows the other rules) to recolor.

For the past several weeks I've been getting a "General Error invalid-owner" message when trying to access the avi builder. Is there any way to fix this?


I've just deleted your data from the avatar builder table in the database. When the site cache expires this issues should be fixed for you. It may take a day to expire though, so try again around this time tomorrow. ...Sorry for having to make you wait, I don't have something offhand that will clear the cache for your data.

For the Azure Paw ticket am I able to being Brother Mustachio over to the paw side even though it is a lqi?


I beeeeelieve that is possible, as long as the item has passed its non-release grace period (usually 6 months after it left the shop)

Will there be an School Update for the Gold Shops?
I would love to see new Updated Uniforms and

Would be nice for all Students who are going back to School. Also, we need more Variety for Cosplays.


I don't really know what they have planned, but I'm sure they would appreciate the suggestion!
Thank you!

Monstrous Mistress Doragun's thumbnail should be the legs like the other two.

Thank you for appeasing my OCD about this kind of thing....


I'll look into this. Thank you!
