Any plans on updating the art arena? since it is a bit outdated and a bit wonky to use at time.

We'll be doing some bug fixing later. No plans for an update as we have a lot of stuff to work on for the time being.

Is there any possibility that items such as fortune eggs and certain fish drops be updated to allow paws to open them without having to switch back to their human bases?

We'll look into that problem. Sounds like it might have been a bug, not sure.

I know the issue with trophies has been addressed, however, will we see more concentration in the future on getting trophies delivered monthly, as it used to be, instead of year-long backlogs? It is still a very popular site feature that deserves some TLC. Thank you.

It is something we would definitely like to make sure we're more on top of! Sorry for the wait on it!

Can we get some larger mythrill coins in barton boutique? They used to be super handy for tipping and giveaways but 50b seems a bit low when you're working in the trillions most of the time. Even just a 100b coin would be fantastic.

We'll check the UI to see if we can increase the size this week, if not, it'll probably take a few more days.

We don't have the license for this game anymore, but we are working towards bringing new games to Gaia as we speak!
You are right that we need to improve the existing games, and I promise it is a priority. There are just a few things to finish first....

ITEMS
Hey there! There are alot of user recolor items that are ridiculously expensive, and I know the rules state that the recolored items can be released in the CS at any time.
I was wondering if we can make a new sticky forum or something to suggest items for re-release in the CS?
The only one we have so far is for Rococo, and many of my item suggestions don't go through because they are user-made items. I know that many people want certain ones, for example Bats a Lash, etc.
I think this would be a great idea to implement and would help out many users 3nodding
Please let me know what you think heart

There is also this thread that just blankets the topic "items you want to be re-released"

The team had been testing and adjusting the winning rate from what I know. I'll check with them and make sure that if there's been any problems we'll be issuing refunds to make things right

Hello!
I was just wondering how bonus cash sales of 160% and rising are doing well for Gaia, when a few years ago when we had extreme cash discounts it was seen as really bad?

The sales team did determine that it was okay to give out more bonus cash, and I think that does help with keeping marketplace prices lower with more item availability. It's something I need to spend more time looking into.

This question is directed toward Zero Omega, but also to any Gaia staff member who can answer it.
From my last question on last week's ATS to Zero Omega, which he responded to, he said that the Anime/Manga/Comic forum's sticky rules needs updating along with other Gaia forums' sticky rules as well which I highly agree with.
I was wondering when the Gaia Staff was going to get around to doing this? Is there a specific date you guys are aiming for or is it a future project you guys would like to tackle at some point?
Would love to know! Thank you! emotion_kirakira

It would definitely be a future project that I'd like to have done sometime this year. Right now our focus is building up the moderator team, building up other members of the moderator team (such as our Global moderators), and working through our ticket backlog, ticket submission flow, and Help Center updates to make that process a lot more stream lined.

Would it be possible to take aquarium and housing items out of the daily chance until those games don't use flash any more? can't even open mine to add fish or items, so the daily chance items just keep adding up...
We'll take note and make those changes next time we update the daily chance

Wondering why the MP is not updated to shows whats available and how much the cost is. It shows items available when none are, show the cost of the items (if its there) at a much much much lower price than is being offered, frustrating when I think "hurray" they have some and there's none there.

There's a timed job that scans the marketplace to produce the front page results. I'll check and see if there are any problems that might be causing a lag.

Will Hero's Journey ever finish evolving??? Considering how many items are made these days, giving it one final evolution to finish it off shouldn't be too hard surely.

We've assigned an artist to work on it last time I check, let me find out what the delay is.

What I've been working on (The inventory manager) is almost done. Final testing should be this week, released soon after. The next parts, avatar dress up and shopping will go much faster, because I've made a bunch of parts. Stay tuned!
please make sure to put in an item search for vending, plus a back arrow to instantly get to the last page of your inventory! pressing that forward arrow so many times is a huge battery killer!
and with that, i have to go walk a dog.
Well... Inventory won't exactly work like that anymore.

are we going to have to relearn thing? not against it, just emotionally preparing myself. XD
There will be a 5-hour mandatory class before you are allowed to use it!!
JUST KIDDING!
You will have boxes to put things in. One of the advantages is that fewer items will need to load each time. This makes things go faster.

It might take a while for more furniture items to appear as we'll need to convert features such as Gaia Home to HTML5. We still have features such as fishing and towns first... sweatdrop

(weekly Ask the Staff feature)
I guess it's amusing for you, but I'm just wondering why you are in the AtS if you haven't answered a single user question in the entire thread? I checked your post history and you've just posted memes instead of helping other users.
Consider that my question to the staff in general, I guess.
Jak Bauer's job is morale.
But a lot of users feel like their questions are being passed over for the sake of him being able to post memes, and not just him, but other staff who have conversations with each other in these threads without answering user questions. I thought this was "ask the staff" not "staff talk to each other and post nonsense"
I don't see that this helps the site be any more transparent or accountable to its users like it's supposed to when it's being derailed constantly.
As far as I can tell, you and Lanzer are the only two who consistently provide answers to user concerns.
The rest makes us feel like we're ignored and I don't see how that's good for morale. confused
I understand, but there is a lot going on behind the scenes as well. Especially when there are things in their area of customer service that come up that can not be discussed in public.
So what I normally do in ATS is scan for questions I know the answer to. I think the others do the same. If no one knows the answer it tends to fall by the wayside. Usually, these are art questions.
It is not that we don't care, or that we want to ignore anyone. We do our best. smile

In that case, you're saying there were no questions that Jak Bauer could be answering. If that's truly the case, then fine. But I have my doubts.
Thanks for replying. You're my staff hero <3
I come to Ask the Staff to talk to users, as that's what a good amount of people use the thread for. In terms of questions, I can't answer many, but when there's Project Recolor questions I do try to chime in where I can!
