I'd just like to say that I'm a gaian and have been since they started up and none of their events are as cool as the ones here. I just wanted to know what you thought!

I agree. Gaian Halloween ended with fighting and bickering while the Mene Halloween was pleasant and continued on celebrating Day of the Dead as well. While Gaia barely did anything with Valentines Mene combined it with the Chinese New Year and had neat things to earn.

I'm actually liking the Mene events better and I've only been around for this one and the Easter lol
The Easter for Gaia was kinda lacking this year but I don't think I was on there enough either

I've been a Gaian longer than I've been on Menewshan. Gaia occasionally spits out decent events but the community always ruins it for me. Everyone is always trolling or flaming and it's just never really pleasant.
Mene however has such a wonderful community and I thoroughly enjoy meeting the people I do while participating.

This is only my second Menewsha event and I'm already liking Mene's events WAY more... even though it's currently 'borked'. P:
On Gaia there are just too many immature flaming kids, who ruin the events, especially the community orientated ones.

Fox girl seems to be on the same track as I am. The community oriented events are great as long as the community is great.

Ditto, well since 04. This is my first Mene event but so far I think I'm liking it much better than Gaia's. ^^

I like the mene events way better. They make them so that everyone (or almost everyone) gets involved, and the forums are much more lively.
In Gaia, it was more a thing that some people did, some didn't, but they never got as much atention as this even did.
This is my first Mene event, but it still is way better than any Gaia ones :D
Go mene!

The thing I like about many Gaian events is that there are plot updates in the form of comics about the site NPCs. I always find it really interesting to see what is going on in the "world" of the site. I like the events on both sites, though. I think whether or not you have fun depends a lot on if you can find a good thread with lots of fun people to hang out with. Both sites seem to have a habit of experiencing event glitches, however... *giggle*

Dude, event wise Menewsha wins hands down. Gaia's events have become boring and the prizes you get are not all that great. ;__;

I've only been here for few months now and only got to participate in this event and the Easter event. Not only are they far better and more entertaining than the gaian events. But they're more challenging and are much more fun to try to complete.

Gaia is all about, "donate to us" now or we eats you. Or at least that's what it seems to have become so none of there events are any fun anymore.

All Gaia seems to be about nowadays is money. With Mene however you can earn cool items without having to pay in actual money.

i hate the gaian events, there nothing to it, all gaia cares about is money money money, it allways brings out new items to do with an event expecting people to buy them, i dont mind buying mounthy collectables but they've just gone to far, it's not fun anymore it's not entertaining it's just sad!

Mene on the other hand, goes out of it's way to get people involved in event, this last one has been by fair my fav, and i cant wait for the next event, they dont seem greedy when it comes to money (i do understand that the site does need funds etc but there is a point when a site can get greedy) *thumbs up to mene* we all love you guys for caring about your members ^^

Mene is greater than Gaia in my humble opinion...I never go on Gaia either. I don't like anything in there anymore. Here I always find that I am wanting something and enjoy dressing up in here alot more and interacting with friends whenever I can...since you know at times real life can overtake me at times..^^;

I've really grown tired of gaia but they did have some good events before. Like the balloon fights and the olympics. Pretty much anything with Durem in it. Just saying. Also I've never had a problem with the community themed events, cause I always find nice people. (Hint - the LBGT themed threads tend to have a lot of cool and fun people and SUPRISE straight people are usually totally welcome)
But yeah if it weren't for the friends of mine that I still have on gaia I'd be totally done with the site for good.

The airship event on Mene is neat, original, and you can earn a ton of goodies. The one on Gaia, which served as a Christmas event, was just get rid of your crap, earn crap, lose gold, and generally just lame.

I think I would have to agree with the majority here. I've found that I've enjoyed Mene's events a bit more than Gaia's and the people here seem to just be friendlier during them, which makes the event more enjoyable I think. With the Easter event it was nice to see people working together, I wasn't here for the Val one unfortunately, and even then people were still chatting pleasantly with one another. With Gaia I did like the plot comics, but when it comes down to it that was sort of all I liked about them. It didn't feel quite as welcoming as it does here. :D

I noticed recently that the Gaia events are horrid. For the past few years in fact. I love how Menewsha does all their events. I love Menewsha's event more. They actually have ones that every participates in we all get along. I hate how on Gaia I hear so many complaints about what is wrong or heck just plain complaining about anything. So during their events I tend to stay to myself and not post anything. This way I don't run into anyone who is childish.

Even though steampunkish theme isn't my style, I love this event. It is fun as heck to collect their currency and I love how they have event currency you can use to purchase items instead of using your own money. It's really cool. You can save your money instead of blowing it like in some of the recent Gaia events.
