Talk:Gaia Online

message: There should be a section on Gaia's economy. It might be better suited to move some things into this section from other sections too, like talking about gold and the like. Websites such as tektek.org and gaiacast go into talking about Gaia's economy, I'm sure other ones report on it. And the economy is mentioned in almost every news piece I've seen written about Gaia.
Since Economies are so intricate, it might be suited for a second article, however. Especially when you have to factor in things like how real money comes in to play and the like. It is interesting to see how economies evolve when the rules are altered from the current global economy, yet still seem to follow some, but not all rules of the market economy. 150.131.77.65 (talk) 05:56, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

message: There should be a section on Gaia security, for those petafile-weary parents. I'm pretty sure it's safe, but they'd like some confirmation.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.141.195.167 (talk) 19:24, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

message: With the upcoming battle system, would it be worth listing locations that we know about through the battle site, item descriptions, the plot, and through other methods?
I'm sure I've seen other games with location lists... or would this be un-needed research and data that no one else really cares about? XD   
I think it would also be worth mentioning Gaia's increasing exposure to the 'outside' world through 'IRL Raids' such as the Early Show, the Today Show and The Price is Right?

message: I have seen an advertisement for something called "ZOMG!" in a magazine. From what I have gathered, it is a "casual mmo" that Gaia will be creating. There also has been some discussion about it on the gaia forums. Does anyone know about this?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 162.84.155.173 (talk) 15:27, 11 August 2008 (UTC)

message: In regards to this announcement on the Gaia website:
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/announcements/donation-items-name-change-to-monthly-collectibles/t.19031035/
Monthly Collectables have had their name changed from Donation items. It's a bit nit picky, but under the heading "Monthly Collectibles", shouldn't it say "Monthly Collectibles (previously known as Donation Items)"

message: I'm not sure if this was already added and taken away, but I might as well go for it. [The Gaian Bible] is a bit of an epic fanfiction about the site's creators and community. Its had its own thread for years and now has moved to a pretty popular site. Unlike TekTek and similar generators, it isn't a tool, just a rather large collection of myths, folklore and stuff put into prose. I think its a bit of a testament (no pun intended) to how dedicated some people are to Gaia and reflects the humour in the community. Its got its own article on the Gaian Wikia, but does it qualify for a link here, or does it need something more?  Melaisis (talk) 10:31, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's notable enough that it's gotten independent coverage, then it can be included. E.g., has Wired written about it? —C.Fred (talk) 16:43, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

message: As far as I know, Gaia Interactive is still based out of San Jose, California...so why the hell does the article say San Francisco? I thought this was covered, Lanzer can live wherever the hell he wants but I'm more than a little sure their head offices are in San Jose. As is Lanzer apparently because job openings for Gaia Online aren't listed as being in San Francisco.
zOMG isn't mentioned anywhere, despite the fact any visitor to Gaia with an account can play it freely. Its listed as being in beta but it has since its release and being listed as a beta doesn't change that anyone can play it.--Licourtrix (talk) 11:28, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Under Special Events, it says that the zombie skin is a "Grunny".  A Grunny is a green zombie rabbit that infected Gaians and made them into Grombies.  There are three original Grombie stages and the third is reminiscent of a Grunny with the eyes and mouth, but it's still a Grombie.  There are also two other Zombie skins that have come out, but they are simply "Zombie" skins instead of the Grombie skins, because they weren't brought on by the Grunny outbreak.

message: Nice of you guys to hide all of the criticism that Gaia has. This article has nothing but biased praise for the website.--108.7.77.32 (talk) 02:26, 26 May 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Is any of the criticism coming from established game reviewers and not just in (fan) forums? There's an issue with reliable sources in play here. —C.Fred (talk) 02:44, 26 May 2010 (UTC)

message: Hi all, I've just done a huge article update since a large majority of information about the current Gaia Online website was missing or out of date. All I've really done is plug in a bunch of information so there's a few references missing that should probably be put in, as well as dates about when certain things were implemented, and random spelling/grammar mistakes. Hope the article's more up to date now. SunsetFlare (talk) 05:51, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

message: "This arcane art lets you use secret formulas to combine items into volatile concoctions-- they may transmute into rare and valuable treasures, or they might blow up in your face. You can discover these formulas all over Gaia, but the simplest way is to buy them in The Bifrost shop!"Alchemy lets you use formulas to combine multiple ingredients into rare and valuable items.
You can find formulas all over Gaia, or buy them from Bifrost. Each formula can only be used once.
Each formula requires a different set of ingredients. Click on a formula to see which items you'll need to complete it.
  
Once you have all the ingredients, your formula will show up in the Ready Tab. Click on "Complete" to attempt to transform the ingredients into a new item.
    
Keep in mind that your alchemy level needs to match or exceed the level of the formula, or you won't be able to complete it. Some formulas are more difficult to complete than others, and your attempt to complete them may fizzle out. If so, you'll have to try again!
