I certainly wouldn't say they're all horrible by any means, I just think they're understaffed. :sweat: Just about all the moderators I've encountered have been quite friendly, but a lot of them just aren't readily available when you need them.

Sizzla 03-10-2009 11:59 PM

Oh yeah, every moderator/omnimod I'm friends with or have PMed about stuff have been great. They're not bad people, by any means, but yeah, Gaia's understaffed considering how many members there are and how much work the mods have to trudge through. :sweat:

jellysundae 03-11-2009 11:34 AM

And what a community to try and pick staff from, huh? I wonder just how many users have been banned for lying on the mod applications...hundreds, possibly thousands I'll bet, all in the 17 and under age bracket.
I don't envy the people who's task it is to go through the apps and interview people, not one little bit.

Sizz, is that guy you mentioned before still moding the GD? The one who was getting a ton of abuse on his profile, just because he actually was modding and not just leaving it to go to hell..

Sizzla 03-11-2009 01:15 PM

I'm not sure if he is or not. I haven't checked GD in a longggg time. But there sure was an uproar at the time. :sweat:

... I think I'm one of the only users who doesn't know how to play Booty Grab. Any care to explain it to me? >.< I'm really confused about it; does my own aquarium have to be in my signature/profile in order for me to actually play on other people's?

No. Your aquarium does not need to be in your signature for you to play booty grab, but people won't be able to play on your tank.

When you are in the forums, just look at the signatures, and if a tank has a sign that says Booty Grab on it, click on the tank.

A new window will open up, and you wait for your character to pop up at the bottom of the tank. Then you mouse back and forth to try to catch gold coins that are falling before the minute of time is up. Avoid the red whammies. The blues are bonuses.

When it is over, wait for it to roll back to the tank again, and then close the game window.

There's an entire forum somewhere on Gaia for talk about Aquariums, so there are a lot of threads advertising lots of tanks. :)

(I don't know if I can describe the BootyGrab game process any other way than was explained the post above, so I figured I'd post about where to find tanks. >_> )

Ah, I see. thanks for the explanation. =) I just finished playing my first game. xD It was actually pretty fun. I'll probably be playing it a lot now. xD

jellysundae 03-12-2009 01:22 PM

I'm tired of Booty Grab now =_=

I could spend hours on it every day and make a heap of gold eventually and reach my quest target, but I fear my head would explode from boredom before then. I don't like spamming threads to get people to play my tank, but I'm not going to recoup the gold I spent on my mermaid and turtles otherwise, but it's all just got tedious for me now ._.

Clearly I'm feeling whiney today xD

celestial pocky 03-12-2009 02:08 PM

I've been on gaia since 2005, and what its turned into nowadays is a big mess.
Its not even as fun as it used to be, so I just dont go on anymore..

Here were my accounts though, I had two.

Jeannesha 03-12-2009 04:45 PM

Yea, I know what you mean, jelly. I'm tired of Booty Grab now too.
And also tired of posting in the aquarium forum. That's really the only place to post to make your game readily available for others.

It says that I've made over 130,000 from other people playing my tank. That's a lot of dough. But you don't get that if you don't keep your tank out there for folks to play.

btw...Kilarra hasn't resonded to my PM yet. So I'm still waiting. How will I know when/if she's read it?

Sizzla 03-12-2009 04:48 PM

Once it's been read, it'll move from your outbox to your sentbox. :D

Jeannesha 03-12-2009 04:52 PM

Ack...I take it back.

Kilarra just reponded to me either last night or early this morning.
She says she can't see anything that shows what happened, but she's trying to find out who could help me.

She sounds really nice, so hopefully I can get this resolved.

On another topic... they're having more fish drop the green coins in Booty Grab for the rest of this week.

jellysundae 03-12-2009 08:06 PM

Yeah I read the announcement for that, makes me feel compelled to play it more even though I've had enough of it now xD. Do you think it's worth making a thread in the aquarium forum for Mene people? So at least we'd have some people to talk to in there that we know, instead of just mindlessly bumping?

Rabid Rainbow 03-12-2009 09:23 PM

I say go for it.

But post the link here if you do. :D

jellysundae 03-12-2009 10:08 PM

I dunno if I can be bothered, it would need to be done properly, with the thread set up somewhere else then moved once a fair amount had made a post, so the first pages weren't filled by other people's spam.

Angel Spirit Girl 03-12-2009 10:14 PM

It sounds like a nice idea, Jelly. :yes:

Cosmosnickers 03-13-2009 08:54 PM

Gaia...how familiar it is. I rarely log on anymore but if anyone wants to ever chat on there or add me, you can find me under Artenimes.
My current theme is a snow fairy since I was hacked and lost most - practically all - of my rare/expensive items (bye, bye Demonic Pendant and Coco Kitty). *cries*

Michelle_x0x 03-13-2009 09:03 PM

I have a Gaia, yes. And yes, I use it. xXx Michelle.
I don't use it as much as I use other forum sites, but I still use it sometimes. xD

Yume` 03-15-2009 04:58 PM

I have a gaia account.
There's actually a link to my profile in the website button on here.
Anyway.. I'm not really too fascinated with the site like I was a couple of years ago, but I'm still there.
Mostly to just buy art and chat with friends.
If I do leave, I'm gonna direct them this way.. ;)

Rabid Rainbow 03-15-2009 07:05 PM

NEW MCS. OH LAWDY THAT NYMPH IS SO PRETTY AND SHINY.

Discuss.

Guivre 03-15-2009 08:31 PM

I forgot to check in today, lol. ; ; Probably because no one has been in my favorite thread all week. D=

The nymph is nice, I think they kind of missed in the design of the other, though I haven't seen all the poses. I just don't think the color choice is very good. They needed to make it match the TM from december '07 I think.

Tre Le Coco 03-15-2009 10:20 PM

someone post image? I can't log in at school >.>; lol

Tijdon 03-15-2009 10:47 PM

Those items are fuckin' horrid. The art made it look very desirable. Then I went and looked at their collectable page and previewed each of the selections on my avatar. I wanted to vomit. It is by far one of the most poorly done items. Techno-mage is just stupid. Its a bunch of junk clustered together. Looks like the got the idea after visiting the dumping yard to try to find a 'new' server to support more ill-equipped moderators.
The art for the spring nymph is amazing. I will give them that. However, with going down the list. Who the hell wants another grass hair? You have one of those Elemental Hair things that have green, 'grassy' looking hair. Now my hair looks like a fucking bush. I have no idea what the second one is. It looks like I got a strand of a willow tree stuck on me after climbing one. What the hell were they thinking with a BACK corset? I mean seriously. I like to have my avatar facing forward the majority of the time. That selection is useless unless you turn around and you have nothing over it. The Floral ornament isnt too bad. I will give them a B for effort on that. The Forest Wreath is pathetic. It looks like the fuckin Green Laurels from the Giftbox that was released in 2003. Just larger. Ivy wings... jesus. :roll: I thought this was suppose to be a nymph. Not a flying freak creature from the depths of the forbidden forest.
Tree background.. awesome... Yeah, Where is the rest to make the wonderful picnic scenerio.
Deep roots, anyone ever want to cosplay a tree? Didn't think so. Other two options are not viewable. Though judging but the Bonsai tree one. You are holding it.
