gaio OnLINET Hello everyone! Back in 2014 I've taken a leave as an admin on Gaia after 12 years of work. I travelled, relaxed, worked on new ideas, and studied new programming techniques. Though I was away, I had always kept Gaia close to my heart. That's whywhen recently the opportunity for me to return and take charge, I immediately jumped on the offer Gaia had been a passion for me and other admins who created the community 14 years ago, and at it's core we believed that there should always be a community on the internet where we can truly be ourselves and have fun while we're together. We've created many games and features in the past, as well as hosted countless storyline and holiday events. Gaia started from having 250 users online and grew to having millions of Gaians. The internet had evolved a lot since then, but Gaia still have you, the core group ot users who enjoy being on the Gaia community. To all our users who see Gaia as their home, I want to thank you for being with us, and l'd like to spend more time in serving you and the whole community. Gaia had been under a different management team for the past few years, and now that I'm back on the helm, I will spend my time and effort coming up with projects that you guys will appreciate. Gaia was created because I made friends with some really creative artists and we all love anime and games. With the new management team, I'd like to draw from that original source of inspiration and spend time coming up with more creatively driven projects. Whatever the projects may be, I think you'll enjoy seeing what we will come up with in the following months. I have with me other old time admins such as LOcke and CP, who will be helping out in coming up with crazy new ideas and making new stuff. I look forward to working with the old gang just as much as having fun making new features for you all But for the coming few weeks, there will be lots of work that needs to be done in the Gaia office as me and others transition back. So I do ask for your patience while we figure things out, find out which projects to tackle, which feature to fix, or what events to launch, before getting back to all of you regarding details to what will come next. Happy to see you all again!!!

Tip Post Posted: Wed Apr 15, 2015 12:08 am BI T Site Ruiner LIMITED QUANTITY ntil next week or so Offline Hey Gaians! I had a great idea today. What if instead of fixing the community market, we just make everything worse? Ah, that was kind of ambiguously worded Let me try again: What if we ruin gold value by ruining gold value? Ah, simply an amazing idea! Look, what I'm saying is that instead of making the site a better place for everyone, we just try to milk more money out of you as we run out own website into the ground! That's it! Toss aside your hard-earned money and drive this website down even further into the dirt! Cha-ching! This completely pointless and money-driven "get-rich-quick" RNG-riddled mess contains a chance to win up to one trillion gold or a gigantic stash of GoFusion Charms! This worthless, site-breaking chance item even includes a chance to win the amazing Baby Golden Ticket, which can be exchanged for the opportunity to work with a talented Gaia artist to design your own unique item with one posel Because we need MORE reasons to trick you into buying such a worthless thing! The best part is that only 1,999 of these will ever be sold until next week or so, and one of them is guaranteed to be the lucky winner of the Baby Golden Ticket! You can increase your chances to win by getting as many of these pathetic things as you can, but only if you hurry! This chance item will be leaving the shop on April 18th at 11:59 PM PDT, until next week or so. Thanks for the cash, losers! Check It Out! Rules and FAQ!

Monetizing non-buyers Should you sell engagement currency directly? Trade has to serve both parties - . Clear need for non-buyers to trade for exclusive items -Need for buyers to trade stronger without direct sale Encouraging user trades has other positive effects Some buyers become distributors, contributing to sales -Additional supply of items to ecosystem Higher perceived value of engagement currency Likely to be perceived as unfair - Devalues investment of time by non-buyers, who may feel second class Transparent advantage might be considered cheating . - Consider carefully before selling engagement currency directly gaio 17 Confidential- Do Not Distribute ONLINE
