Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

• Thank you everyone for posting in the thread. From next week on, I will be online every Monday at 6pm. Other times I will spend on updating my profile and journal, and answering private messages. See you next week!
• Though we are really working hard to say more... it starts with the staff listing with profile and journals, and this thread is just one of many things that we have planned. I hope that when you get to read through everything by our staff members, people will have a good idea about what is going on around Gaia.

Q: Will we ever get real wings for the avatars that are "realistic".
What I mean buy that is that they are attached to your back and do not look so high on the shoulders.
A: The answer is yes - the infamous back wing quest is planned. We will start rolling quests out as soon as possible.

Q1: What influenced you on making the Von Helsons vampires?
Q2: Are there going to be 3 MC's per month indefinitely?
Q3: What is your favorite sushi?
Q4: In terms of gold and items, are you an average Gaian, or are you insanely rich and have 6 of each MC ever created?
A1: Doesn't their names sound rather ominous to not be vampires?
A2: We're leaning towards 3 MC because it feels really bad two release 2 items and see both failing, and people saying how they don't like them... However, it is more of a confidence factor. If we have two items that are really strong, we wouldn't worry over making three of them.
A3: I love Hamachi (yellowtail tuna)
A4: I have about 100k accumulated over the years. Other than that, I do not have much MC to make me super rich.

Q: Will you guys ever make the elf ears for all the different color skin avies...? I want dark elf ears.
A: I'll remind the team again

Q: What was your reaction to L0cke setting your car (more specifically, the trunk of your car) on fire? Your take on the story? Who else was there?
A: It's just a car, more important that we had fun.

Q: Are you planning to upgrade/expand the Guild System so users can do more with their guilds?
A: Yes, guild system need a re-write pretty badly. We might remove the guild creation fee, add a lot features for spending guild gold, and make it easier to manage guilds.

Q: With the upcoming Vampires (or whatever they are), are Zombies and them going to be sworn enemies? Or better yet, is there going to be a rivalry between species on Gaia sometime in the near future? Like against humans, zurgs, zombies, etc. Also how would all these species play out in the upcoming Battle System?
A: A vampire's enemy is usually not a zombie... but I can't give too much away

Q1: -Did you ever take a UFO out for a spin during the Zurg plot? (mainly directed at Lanzer)
Q2: -Is Gaia HQ handicap accessible? My brother, who's handicapped, likes to evaluate offices and wanted to know.
Q3: -Are you familiar with... Pee Salad?
A1: Yes
A2: Yes
A3: Pee Salad? No ….

Q: One thing I've been longing for is the ability to sort game items. I feel it's more important and useful to be able to do that than to be able to sort the equip items. Is the staff looking at ways to be able to do that for the upcoming Item Inventory rewrite?
A: Yes, we're thinking of an approach that can accommodate different types of items since there will be more than the three item types in the future.

Q: My question for the night is what kinds of things will we be expecting with the new marketplace write-up?
A: Darknrgy had shared a lot of info here:

It looks pretty awesome so far!

Q: If someone got a warning like 2 years ago, is it cleaned from their record or does it haunt users forever?
A: Depends on the type of warning or ban. Small things will not affect someone's mod application if that's what you wish to know.

Q: Are the Von Helson Sisters going to have a big role in the new event or is it going to be more focused on Vladimir and Louie? Why haven't the Von Helson Sisters profiles been updated? Is Labtech alive?!
A: Yes, though I can't say much beyond that. And yup, Labtech is still alive.

Q: A question about towns, will you be incorporating even more ways of transport? Like how the UFO works? Possible cars? Hoverboards? Skates with special animations, etc, etc. Make the jet form of the mecha fly over houes, people, trees, etc. Make certain things allow you to go faster. Things like that.
A: Yeah one of the bigger ideas for a Towns update is to have transportation. Cars would be cool, and having public transport like a bus or plane would be fun.

Q: How are you going to choose the beta testers for the battle system?
A: We would probably choose the most engaged users on Gaia as our beta testers. That would be determined by stats such as time online, post count, etc.

Q: Will we be getting different themed towns, such as Isle De Gambino or Durem?
When is the new layout coming out?
A: Definitely. Probably after we installed the new Towns server. New layout comes out real soon! We're working on how Daily Chance would look like in the new system.

Q: Definitely. Probably after we installed the new Towns server. New layout comes out real soon! We're working on how Daily Chance would look like in the new system.
A: Nope, we used to play a lot of RO and I think that has more influence on us. Oh, and I think that MapleStory came after Gaia.

Q: can you give us any summer event hints?
A: Summer event will happen all over the Gaia world, we can all fight with water!
