Moved this to the right forum for you :) Maybe edit your thread title to give a better idea of what the thread is about?

Gaia is definitely/can be much more...raw? When it comes to that sort of thing. Not many people feel like pleasantries/make the effort to sugar-coat or be kind.

In the areanas, I can sort of understand this. Say you put in a wicked awesome avatar, that you are sure has a good chance at winning, but no one sees it because all the junk entries/ "I put this up because I wanted to, not because I wanted your validation" entries cluttering the way.
It can be quite frustrating.

the people on here are more friendlier and fun the people of gaia tend to be..mean, trolls, and blarg but here they are funny and kind :P and what not XD

I personally believe that, since Gaia put that zOMG thing up, people's been idiots and the crews they form are pathetic at best. That's why I like soloing on it. Also, the more intense focus on the Cash shop makes me feel alienated from the rest of the site because I can't afford to just go to the nearest store and get a Gaia Card or whatever.

me either... adn then they charge like millions of gold the items in the cash shop on the market.... i dont have the kind of time to post for 2 gold a post to earn the cash for those items...

I find it a million times easier to make gold on Gaia since they have Booty Grab. Most of the time here I play a game and get no gold...

The reason was money; they were monetizing the site, but they went too far, nowadays, everything gaia does is as a business. It's no longer about fun, or about an anime community started in Lanzer's garage. It's all about what will earn the most money. Next to nothing is ever added that isn't tied directly into the scheme of making money.

Its impossible to be kind, friendly, and caring if you are only motivated by earning as much money as possible as quickly as possible.

My theory? It's all because of the gold.

Because they allowed people to get 100 gold off of every "first post" in any thread in any forum, and off of every poll, and simply for searching the site, it inflated and then when the new people came in, they'd sit back and watch them struggle. Everyone was like, OMG-I-HAVE-A-MILLION-GOLD-YOU-DON'T, and buy everything in all the shops and make the newbies feel like crap. On top of this, people started realizing that Gaia had easy gold, so a whole bunch of people flocked there and basically spammed up everything. I remember some mods got overpowered by the GDers for trying to come through and clean everything up. It's just horrible.

gaia mods are sometimes evil :c

I have found some rather lovely people on Gaia. I mean, there are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of people there. Naturally there are way more assholes.

diaveborn 06-12-2011 05:04 AM

I agree with Vela... I've been on Gaia a while and I think if you're new and just coming into certain forums, you'll definitely feel that harsh vibe, but if you get settled a little more I think it would feel better. Not to blame anybody who has a bad experience! Because I do think that would not be anybody's fault except for the people who aren't behaving nicely on the site.
