When gaiaonline first entered the web, it was a fresh idea with a bunch of friends. It slowly grew, until it gained its status today. But with more cash shop items it seems that many of the original people are straying, newbies are becoming more popular, and many people are quiting because lack of items/being hacked. It seems like many websites tend to do this, lots of members and the famous people popping in once or twice. But is gaia ever going to go THAT far? Leave your comments and i'll try to respond, dial-up is terrible.
I kinda enjoyed it when it wasn't so large and not soo main stream. Now gaia sells itself out to the highest bidder with the advertisement and lack of creativity with new items and their MMO didn't live up to the hype it generated.
I like Gaia, but in the last few years, the ideas have been getting worse and worse and soon I think it's gonna just become some sell-out site that advertises through monthly-collectibles and trailer items.
e.g. : some of the monthly collectibles, the trailer items and how they're even supporting offers.
I can agree that gaia will eventually be one of those sites unless they start to reform back to the site they use to be I mean i wasnt there from the beginning but I was there from 2006 and the changes are so massive from what it used to be. I just hope they decide to atleast make some kind of adjustments to the site and reach out to a broader audience. Not too many people born and raised in hawaii have gaia accounts. Im one of the very few that do.
Yeah to be honest I think everything was way simpler than what it is now. New people are having the hardest time trying to navigate through the site, can't find the places where they need to go, post simple questions on the forums and what not. The site has become more dynamic no question but where do you draw the line between becoming dynamic and easy to use or non user friendly, complicating, and frustrating?
No questions about it, it's heading towards THAT place, alright. Come on, the lottery was one of the final straws for me, that, and their gay site redesigns. Teaching myself to move around an unfamiliar setting IS NOT FUN, and neither is the attitude of the powers that be on said site.

The site's been like that ever since the end of 06, but the Gayafags don't seem to complain.....much. atleast not in public where they risk getting banned.
People have complained, but the reason why they haven't reverted is because the new user base had no experience with the older versions, and they are trying harder now to be original but really they are just copying other sites.
The whole Facebook ap is just annoying. my live events are full of them just changing clothes every 5 minutes
2 years ago Gaia was awesome, right about then it went into the crapper.
I suppose I'll be done with it when I find some thing equivalent to the old Gaia.

Is it possible? everything inflated D: i remember when ninja hb was 800k
@above: you remember when Ninja Band was 800k, I was there when Halos were 3k. And the main thing that really pissed me off was when they made it so that you couldn't get any gold from posting or polling after a while. Faggots.
-.- i like gaia.. almost all of the members in our Online Clan is playing gaia. gaia's population is getting bigger.
PS:but i really dont like the items coming out that can be bought by cash. -.-
when everyone can only get somewhere by paying real money, you know that something's gone wrong, junior. Trust me, I was there. There was a time when people could actually get rich by legit means. Now, only no-lifers and established members can get richer.
Cause that's what Gaya is like now - you need a load of gold to breed more gold.

-.- do you mean "legit means"-- like posting in forums, posting comments in profiles, playing some of their games?.

yes, that's what I meant. There was a time when people fishing would actually make some honest gold now and then if they had time to spare. What's more, you could keep getting gold from polling and posting, a long time ago, until they changed it to what is is today.

programmers and hackers are one of the main reasons they changed xD
I think most people playing Gaia are from '05 and after.
Noobs and snobby elitists who think that because they've got a gold, it makes them 'better' than everyone else.
Really, from what I see, Gaia won't get past what it is now.
Gaia's at its peak, as they're running out of ideas for their MC and whatnot.
:\

oh god, 10g per poll <333 made me a poll whore back in the day. and yess before the Gaia Cash shop appeared people made their currency either donating for MC;s or by means of posting and gaming. and the usually Avi Art and other user own shops.

i think there is a limit getting gold by posting right?. -.- the more you post the smaller the amount of gold you can get, am i right?. -.-

Back in the day too, there were snobby elitists. But the site being what it is, then unfortunately, you will have to deal with elitists of all kinds. If you're a noob, prepare to be flamed, is all the advice most members give, except for the guys haunting the forum support and assistance section. :/
