Eh, I don't mind it, especially since it'll probably be gone once all of the flavors are given (so that should be a little over a week)
@ AgentKaz: If I had more money, I would definitely be spending about $20 monthly on Gaia - there's some awesome items out there! D= *was lucky enough to nab Reve and Kottan Bell with gold*

At the end of last year, or beginning of this one, gaia had to fire 13 percent of its employees due to lack of money.

I'd say that Gaia is a subsiduary of TimeWarner now, wouldn't you? If they haven't bought it out then I suspect they'll have maybe 49% of the company in their pocket, and it's their CEO who does all the pushing for cash features...

I've become very disappointed with gaia's constant rando boxes with tons of extreme rares that get AI-ed. The Suspicious Package is leaving on Monday. Any guesses on the name of the new rando box that they will have on Tuesday? :sarcasm:

i have only one account on gaia (still use it to play pinball because i love pinball so much) but i havent really used it for why i got it way back in 2005, which was just to chat and network with people. oh well, i guess that is what things like facebook is for instead.
i also hear a lot of negativity about gaia (and not to go in great details about why i agree or disagree), but it has been a save heaven for me during stressiful times. i used to have a neopets acoount (since they have A LOT of games), and it seems I always got banned for things I never did wrong, because all i did was play games. Gaia was one of the first sites I could be loyal to, because it never banned me from breaking a rule that i didnt break. And I think Mene is now going to be one of my favs after reading the rules, and I hope I shall be on here long enough to see it through the years.

Like the robot and backgrounds....
I wish they gave out some different decorations. I wouldn't mind a little bit of coral for my aquarium...

I'd love that too, but of course, they'll all be costing Cash for those...
I'm getting sick of seeing those robots, they look horrid. >_>
And has anyone noticed that if you placed two of those planets close together, they look like a pair of breasts? *major sweatdrop*
Wow, they finally added the bin option! I'll probably get around to that later, I have sooo many guppies it's not even funny. >_>; (and none of them were from Fishing either)
It seems that they've raised the amount of gold one gets from posting and commenting...I got 50g and above 40g from commenting my friends earlier and nearly all my posts got more than 45g each. I didn't stay too long to post more than ten though, so I'm not sure if it'll be like that no matter how many posts one makes, but hopefully not...inflation's bad enough as it is.

Welcome, Nightly. ^.^
I like that they have a trash option now, too. Yay! No more extra backgrounds for my tank.
The guppies can be made into bass, you know, Fading.
Bass can be sold to the shops and made into helmets and fish eyes and stuff.

It's really sad that you need to trash stuff, though. On any other forum site I can think of (Mene included), the idea of throwing something out is laughable. If Gaia is giving out items all over the place that the users have little or no use for, they need to be rethinking their strategy.

They are giving out loads of the EXACT SAME stuff with no way to sell it back to the shops.
If the items were always varied, or could be sold to the shops for one gold, then they would not need to be trashed.

The whole thing just sounds like a huge headache. Not to mention a waste of time. Who wants to constantly have to be going through their inventory to get rid of junk they didn't want in the first place?

Yeah, I know, but I'm too lazy to be bothered with doing all that...:P
I might do it later on when I'm feeling bored, but for now I just feel like trashing them...
And I agree whole-heartedly with Doomfishy. There's something really wrong going on if you actually have to trash an item on an avatar site.
Since no one ever uses them anyway, why don't they just stop giving them out? It's not like giving or not giving does much of a difference. :roll:

Why didn't they just make them sellable to the shops for one gold in the first place?

I trashed most of my items from the Overseer. ._. I kept a copy of each hanging around just in case I found the perfect outfit for it. I'm tempted to go trashing a lot of stuff I couldn't sell back or sell on the Marketplace. ._.
