Yes we do have plans to make new games or replace the old ones with HTML5 games, though it's a slow process.

Will there ever be a "full reset" option for zOMG? Or at least a refinement of the quest reset system? The game's still pretty unplayable for some people with bugged out NPCs. I couldn't say exactly why myself, but it seems like some event flags aren't reset along with the quests, making some quests unable to be completed after a quest reset.

We can definitely look into a full reset feature if people are still having quest problems. we'll add to the to-do list.

When Gaia Gold users sell items in the Marketplace, they have to sell their items for minimum 10 000 000 Gaia Gold to match the value of 1 Gaia Platinum.
This often makes it very hard and time consuming to sell items that were worth 1 Gaia Gold or lower than 10 000 000 Gaia Gold. At the same time we don't want to trash our items, we want to give our items to other gaians who needs or wants them. Can you make it possible to give items away for free on the Marketplace?

This wouldn't be an issue if you have switched over to Platinum, which we highly recommend. Otherwise you can also donate items for free using the "donate item" function which will send it to Dumpster Dive

Now that Net Neutrality has been overturned in the United States, what does this mean for Gaia Online? Will we have to pay extra to visit Gaia?
Now that Net Neutrality has been overturned in the United States, what does this mean for Gaia Online? Will we have to pay extra to visit Gaia?
Lack of net neutrality probably wouldn't affect sites that doesn't create a lot of bandwidth such as video streaming services. So Gaia probably isn't affected. The real impact will happen many months later as the FCC is keeping a close eye on this very issue and many states are preparing to sue over the decision.
In the long run this will affect the bigger players such as Google and Netflix first as ISP can get the biggest profit out of them with minimal social outrage, and the pricing structure will probably begin to affect lower tier services down the road, but it's hard to speculate at this moment. Expect that in the future, certain companies will be charged more for using more bandwidth, and the cost will be passed down to the provider's customers so we should be seeing price increase from the providers. It will be too big of an issue to directly charge the customer is what most people are expecting.

Can you do a small change to "Runway::Museum" to include the theme and prompt?
For example:
This page: http://www.gaiaonline.com/runway/museum/?runway=4918
is linking to the museum of
"THEME: Boredom in candyland
Show us an avatar dressed in monochrome surrounded by a colorful world."
thought it's nowhere to be seen on that page in particular.

Will there ever be better ways to manage and organize our items? Inventories build up and clutter very quickly on Gaia. People amass collections in the hundreds and thousands, but it's a bit daunting trying to get around your inventory. Would we ever be able to create custom categories to sort things around how we want? Or even item galleries where we put collections on display for other Gaians to look at, but they're separated from our inventory so as to not get lost or mixed up with anything else.
Sorry for long question. sweatdrop

Yes! We've been working on something, but I've gotten behind on my part of things. Hoping to catch up over the holidays. Stay tuned.

Lake Kindred: Is it possible for you guys to merge all Exp against Element stats under the Exp stat? Right now there's an overabundance of Exp against Element amulets, and for those who already have all their kins at level 50, any amulet with that stat is considered useless.

We've talked to LionHeart about this and the amulets are designed that way so that there is the aspect that the better amulets are harder to obtain. There is a chance that we will release even better amulets down the road.

I saw that the people had gotten their Achievement by purchasing the merch tickets (aka: Artist Alley and Merch).
However, I checked my achievement page and didn't achieve. According to the Winter Box Ticket, it said that it included the achievement.
So will the people who purchased Winter Box and Grab Bag ticket get their achievement or not?

We're going through and getting to those that we ended up missing, should have those out by Wednesday to everyone.

Lake Kindred: Could there be an option to turn off animations and their wait times? Right now, certain kins, such as Cabochomp, will take an overly long time to attack. A lot of users are also experiencing lag over large kins such as Sycamortes. Having an option to disable animations for their idle animation would help with the problem.

Unfortunately LK was not built with the option to turn off animation, so to add such a feature now would take a big overhaul. So it'll be hard for us to implement it right now.

Items:
Can we get maybe a little more male/masculine items perhaps? You look at RIGs especially lately and there's 1-2 male options amidst a sea of 6-10 female options. Even if I do like the male clothes in that RIG... the odds of getting male items is lower because there's fewer of them.
Guys play Gaia, too. sweatdrop

Any chance these will be wrapped up by the end of the year? If not, what's the current timeline looking like?

We are looking at before end of the year!
That's the time table that we want to hit from the ones we know about and have ready to go with. If we do see that we're going to run into any issues, we'll be sure to keep users updated on an individual level and provide compensation for the delay as we've done before. It's something we definitely want to be wrapped up with as much as others.

Gotcha. I hope it all goes smoothly and I'm not pestering you again next year Same as well! And as always, thank you so much for the patience. I know that the experience has been incredibly frustrating for everyone and the patience you have all shown has been exceptional. Luckily enough we won't be doing something like this again so there won't be these kinds of hiccups. x_x

Any update on the chatterbox vote solicitation? Last week I was told that it would be talked over to see if it should be revised and I'm just curious on the current status of that. 3nodding

We haven't had a chance to discuss it yet, but it is on our list of things to talk about.

even when you do convert most games to HTML5, can you leave the flash versions accessible?

i don't even want to imagine the time and cost it would take to convert zOMG to HTML5. x_x
and with that, i have to go dog walking.

Oh my god... I wonder if CodeMonkey is up to the challenge? lol emotion_kirakira
He is not! Lol. The Zomg team, from what I have been told had a lot of devs working on it. I have heard numbers that at one time it may have had 12 devs working on it plus art staff.

Will you guys ever work on improving the mobile app? I really want to have better functionality on it. Half the time the pms don't send out and I'm unable to view things in the forums. I would volunteer to help make it but I don't think I have the necessary experience. sweatdrop Just a question.
We will.
