Oh yeah, I forgot about that ._.
I'm all against paying real money for virtual items xD

@Tori~ You're right~
I've got many great buddies who cheered me up lots during that.
The hacker was pretty lame, she admitted to hacking me in an instant
I'd say that's good proof to report for xD

Well I gotta head off, bed wants me x3

I'll see you guys later! =D
Been fun getting to know ya'll <3

My little sister got scammed at Gaia just a few weeks ago.

Edit: I am against paying real money for virtual items too. But that doesn't keep people from buying/selling them.

See you later Arie. :)

@Arie: Only time I'll support it is when you're contributing to the community. xD I've never donated to a site before though. *pokes around* I would if I had much left after buying textbooks and food. *sighs*

Before Mene, I definitely didn't know all of the sick ways people try to get rich on sites like this. It's scary. T_T

Have a good night! It was nice talking to you. ^^

@Silenia: Scammed? What happened?

i always donate on gaia my friend said i should stop because im questing but i have done my main quest so why not help others

Well, our computer isn't too great. It keeps logging us out while we're at Gaia. So she clicked a link to a site which looked exactly like Gaia. She thought it was Gaia. It showed she was logged out. As Gaia does exactly the same, she was not surprised, and 'logged in', providing her username and password to the scammers. In about a minute all her items were gone.

@lavalem: Where on earth are you good people lurking? xD I find it rare to be on Gaia to find those with a heart or even literacy. ^^; I still like it though. Just not for the community. *feels lost in the sea of users there* T_T

@Silenia: D: Oh god...Those and keyloggers are awful! T_T Sorry to hear that...

Yes - after she told me she was scammed I immediatly checked the whole computer for Trojan Horses, Virusses and Keyloggers. Luckily there weren't any.

Edit: those with literacy are able to be found at the Writers subforum - yet they aren't too friendly there often. And sometimes at Barton's Town or Exchange. CB is a place to leave alone - most n00bs and scammers and trollers go there.

@ ToriKat i lurk in the exchange mostly whats your name on gaia? i have been around there aince 2003 so i know how hard it was to get gold now its so easy everyone is just greedy

@Silenia: *nods* That's a relief. Disgusting to know what people spend their time doing. >_>;;

Ee...I'm unlikely to wander into the Writer's forum. I definitely don't here. ^^;

@lavalem: The exchange frightens me! Mene's is minuscule in comparison to Gaia's...but I'm still intimidated!

I have the same name on Gaia. ^^

Yes, disgusting to know what they do behind their computers and just as disgusting to know what some of them do in real life.

My first account is from end 2004/begin 2005 yet I don't remember it's username anymore. My main account is from June or July 2005.

@ToriKat exchange isnt that bad when you know how to handle people thinking your stupid offering insanly low prices.
i sent you a gift on gaia ^^

Indeed - you have to know how to handle them. In exchange but in Writer's forum just as much or even more.

@Silenia: I believe I joined around 2005...Then I abandoned Gaia for the longest time, because I just wasn't interested. ^^; I logged in again, and still wasn't addicted. *sighs* I was intimidated by everything. I was definitely a n00b since I had never been on any other site before. Not the bumping, l33t types...just completely clueless and naive. ^^; *sighs*

@lavalem: *blinks* Aw, you didn't have to! Eek, I'll get to check when I go home! Thank you so much! T_T<3

xD I guess the attitude is similar to the Art Shops. My friends and I still laugh over how people were like, oh yeah, charge 500g for your art. 8D

What did you get, ToriKat, if I may ask? I've been a member of Neopets, Gaia, Varus, Roliana, quite a few Dutch forums, and now Menewsha. There were times when I was completely down and lost. There have been times I was online seven hours or more a day. There has been one single day when I was online 20 hours. I didn't sleep that day.

@ToriKat i dont mind giving things

neopets i use to play that

ToriKat: I've taken a look at your deviant art, and I totally love Mene - Winter Festival 2007. :oops:
And Mene - Dizzy, Gaia - Sapheir and Gaia - Artificial Affection.

So far I've only seen the first page, but I really LOVE your art.

@Silenia do you still play neopets much?

Currently not - most friends quit and I was mostly there to talk with them at the forums. Sometimes I still take a look there but I don't visit it that often anymore, just like Gaia.

@Silenia: Hehe, I don't know yet. I need to check when I get home. ^^

Thank you! :3 I love doing art during events! I'll have a shop open for the Valentine's Day event, I think. ^^ Most likely won't be able to do as many pictures since it IS during school.

@lavalem: *hugs*

Well, happy to hear that - I'm sure we'll see some more of your lovely art soon enough than. :)

@Silenia well if you ever go on there again let me know i think i have like 200k on there i dont play there
@ToriKat *hugs back* ^^

Okay, if I decide to go back there I'll surely do.

Eep, I need to disappear for a bit. I need to do the key inventory. Technically, they want it done fifteen minutes before the shift is over...buuut...last time I did that I had to stay longer till it was done. >_<

Okay, any idea when you'll be back? :P

ok i might go to bed now so i will drop by tomorrow bye peoples
