I hope you got some nice items in the drops from your fish iPanduh.

iPanduh 02-23-2010 09:39 PM

They haven't died yet.
: (

Angel Spirit Girl 02-23-2010 11:00 PM

Oh! I thought they had died. :oops:

iPanduh 02-24-2010 01:36 AM

No I think they are at like 209 days. : |
But I think because I was having them with the care keeper they haven't died yet.
Because my watermeat is like 25 weeks life expectancy.
That's like 180ish days.
I'm going to leave them in my aquarium and let them die.

CALLING ALL GAIANS! Even if you quit, please come on in!
 
Hey guys, I'm just curious as to how many people on here are from Gaia, or have been on there. I myself was for many, many years.

My username was first Dark_Fire_Ninja and then later became A Doors Best Friend.

I got hacked twice within a few days apart, not really feeling that my account was secure, and being heartbroken that I lost everything that I had worked up over 5 or 6 years, I quit.

I used the site primarily for roleplaying, which was totally awesome. But, due to the sheer size of the site and guilds, the roleplays were much more active. I like here though, it's nice ^^

What about you guys? Here are some questions to introduce yourself with, chat away with others too!

What was/is your username?
Are you still on the site?
If not, why'd you quit?
What did you use the site for?


Can't wait to hear from you guys! Maybe we'll all find someone we knew XP

The Real Nikki 02-24-2010 05:28 PM

I've been on Gaia for five years myself, my friends have all grown out of it, and I felt that it was time that I did too.
My username is Two Cent Rake. I go on every once in a while, but theres no one to really talk to, and the fourms are so fast paced and random, I don't know.

ISOS Duke 02-24-2010 05:35 PM

Welcome! XP It seems like once you find a thread you like you have to stay in it or it'll disappear or become swamped instantly!

The Real Nikki 02-24-2010 05:45 PM

I know! Eh oh well..

Lucca_Kitazari 02-24-2010 05:48 PM

i still have my Gaiaonline account. the username is 12psychotik4life, but it use to be princess_sarrah13 and before that it was called knight_of_dark_moon.

Huffie 02-24-2010 05:54 PM

I've had kind of an on-and-off relationship with Gaia. :XD Mostly off, to be perfectly honest!

Quote:

What was/is your username?
My username there is Huffie, first site I used that name, actually!
Quote:

Are you still on the site?
Sort of, I mean, I pop on every few months, I haven't officially quit, I just don't really go on it.
Quote:

What did you use the site for?
Well, I liked the avatars, and I kept hearing about it so I joined. But I was never really very into it because the site kind of intimidated me and found it really hard to make any money. :lol: The latter seems to be quite abnormal for most people!

Kole_Locke 02-24-2010 06:17 PM

I still go on Gaia every now and then but I really just don't have the time I used to dedicate on it. It was fun for awhile but it changed too fast.

ISOS Duke 02-24-2010 06:20 PM

When did it change? I know it changed last year or sometime around then, has it changed again sense?

My username is Willow-Kitsune; the same name I use pretty much everywhere except for a few sites where I use AcaciaKumori or some other variation of that name.

Yes, I'm still on the site. I've been there since 2006, but I wasn't active for a year or so in between then and now.

I didn't quit. :3

And I love the avatars and the items for the avatars. That was one of the main reasons why I stayed there(and here too, actually). Lately I've been using it to keep in touch with my cosplay buddies through our guild. |D

lonelyotaku 02-24-2010 06:45 PM

I've been on gaia for a couple years and haven't gotten hacked lately its been noob central though but sometimes i go on there to show of my new avi(one looks like Miranda Lotto and the others a bleach character).

ISOS Duke 02-24-2010 06:47 PM

Neat-o, glad to see you guys here! I hope you continue to like the site ^^

drachenlady 02-24-2010 08:01 PM

My name was drakenlady on that site as it is on almost every site. I played for almost 3 years until my idiot boyfriend started hacking accounts and used my computer. I tried to stop him, but he was addicted, so there was an IP ban on every account used on that computer, therefore I lost all 3 of my accounts, drakenlady, Guardian of Xibalba, and Codename White Devil. I still want to smack him for that. I considered going to San Jose and demanding my account back, but when I saw what I was addicted to, a troll-infested cess pool, I left it alone for good. Oddly, though, he still uses Gaia. I'm fine not having any of my accounts, though. Youo can still look up my usernames and view my avatars, but they are permanently unhackale and forever frozen in time never to be deleted or robbed.

Tanaie 02-24-2010 08:22 PM

My name on Gaia is Tanaie as well. :3
I've been a member for about 4 years now, and I've been hacked twice. Dx
Luckily I'm back on my feet and have gained everything I've lost and MUCH more. =w=;
(Without needless begging)

I really don't have a reason to go on Gaia. I just do because I can. xP

Cherry Who? 02-24-2010 08:44 PM

Hi, miss_SMG! Since we've already got a thread specifically for talking about Gaia, I went ahead and merged your thread into it. :)

Crystal_doll 02-24-2010 11:59 PM

i only have one account :3 i love doing the puzzles there and the pin ball game but thats abt it :3 gaia's boring me lul

Doodler 02-25-2010 02:33 AM

I Have a Gaia!! Im Doodler 10 :D :D

Wavi 02-25-2010 05:02 PM

Awwwww, I love your reasons and your avis are adorable.
I pretty much made multiple accounts because I wanted to get different clothes for different characters. XD

Most of them sprang into being after picking up some kind of inspiration from elsewhere. My main Gaia account was always meant to be a little Mini-Me, with similar hair (I was SO happy when the curlz style came out!) and clothes that I'd wear, a "normal" look. My first secondary account came about after a discussion in the Purkle Couch guild over there, some chance comment about my avie having a naughty alter-ego and what would she be called and look like.

So I made her, same hair but different colour,and a cheeky outfit, all purple themes as the guild name is a play on words for that colour. Let me see what I have lurking in my photobucket...

Damn this image is old, my main's still the pretty, original mouth *mutters* Mulie still has as she hasn't been re-saved for about 3 years.

jellysundaehttp://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y17...asualjelly.png HotFudgeSundaehttp://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/me...914135_6.00_11

Think the boy-child might have been next, a lot of female Gaians have a token male account tucked away somewhere, just so they can mess around with the guy's clothes.
http://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/me...583673_6.00_00

Then I decided I wanted a cute girly account, partly inspired by a Kurdish guy that I worked with. He always called me Poppet, but when he talked about me to someone else, he'd say Poppetta, so that's who little pinky chick became.
http://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/me...685734_6.00_10
I'd dress her in items and colours that I wouldn't wear on my main at the time. That's her winter look, this is the favourite for warmer weather.
http://public4.tektek.org/img/av/090...54/db40353.png Only fairly resently changed her hair to the cute crop. She used to have purple eyes, we won't go into how pissed off I was when that option was deleted >_> So she got red ones to show her anger xD

Hmm, next came a guild mule drive! Again inspired by something (can't remember what though). We all made "wicked" accounts with fruit names.
http://i44.tinypic.com/10ofoxv.jpg
Mine is WickedPeaches, she's down at the front there, in the shades. We had a uniform as you can see. Goth skirt, lunar cowl, net top, black top hat, black boots and a colour of legwear and hair to match your name. Sadly Gaia altered the layering so the top goes over the cowl now so the original outfit looks like rubbish. But she's stayed true to her wicked roots, possibly got quite a bit worse actually :lol:
http://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/me...915081_6.00_01
Many of the other guild members made a "sweet" counterpart to their wicked accounts, but I never did because I already had a sugary girl xD This one!
CelestialCupcake http://a2.cdn.gaiaonline.com/gaia/me...275076_6.00_00 Still trying, after 3 and a half years to find the right items so she can live up to her name fully. She's another who lost her original eye colour, they used to be golden, not murky brown >_>

After that I went for a Fire and an Ice account, neither of which ever got completed due to lack of funds, and I can't recreate on Tektek because the layerings wrong, I didn't think to save their images before I stripped the accounts at the weekend, doh! Next a sunny, summery one based on a green, white and yellow daisy theme as they're my favourite flower. And lastly, the one that was just for the sake of experimenting. No gold spent on her, just wanted to see what she'd end up with item/gold wise if all she could have was free stuff collected from the DC and quests.

So that's MY reasoning for having more than one account xD

And I suppose all those different ones are mainly because on Gaia, you can't have wide-ranging themes for just one account, because you have to pay to change your hair, or delete and recreate your avatar to get a different eye/base colour...so your only real option is making extra accounts.


rondel 02-25-2010 05:15 PM

I have a Gaia account, but I basically quit completely. I was hacked so someone could break the rules and buy gold from a website, got a permanent trading ban. I tried appealing, they didn't listen. I tried over and over and over until finally one day they said if I appeal one more time they'll ban my IP. I then told them that they might as well because any time I'd post I'll be saying how horrible they are and convincing others to not support their website. I then went and posted in probably 30 random threads what happened and tried convincing others. Haven't been back since.

squeenita 02-25-2010 05:18 PM

I have 2 accounts, Vivyan, my original that I have had since 2004, and one that I just found that has been just hanging out, since I forgot about it.....heh......

rondel 02-25-2010 05:35 PM

Oh, I also have a mule that basically bumped and polled every thread possible. He even posted comments on his own profile to make gold, so he made gold kinda fast.

Locaisha 02-28-2010 10:19 AM

*raises hand* me! me! me! ooo pick me!!
