You guys do realize that if you're using your Gaia accounts to "attack Gaia", to message the devs about guilds not being updated, you run the risk of your accounts being banned for harassment?

The reality is that Gaia is much, much, much larger than when many of us first joined. I've been around since 2004 myself. And you guys are right, not a ton has changed over the years. The updates that have been made have been helpful, but there is a long way to go. The reality is just that with the site being so much larger, there's more to update and more to work on - guilds are but one link in a very long chain of things to be worked on.

My point here is just to be careful in how you go about this. If they've already deleted the e-mail address you were using to contact Gaia admin before, how hard would it be to ban a few accounts that are flooding their inboxes with demands about guild updates?

Oh, I know what you are saying and have already taken some precautions. That's what friends are for- if you get banned, you best have your expensive stuff off your account. HOWEVER... It is not against ToS to send 1 PM to Lanzer and if there is nothing threatening to him in there, there is no harassment,. If I inform him of my intention to go to FB and start my campaign there- that is my right and since FB is not owned in any part by Gaia, it isn't against ToS to post my heart out there. And if Gaia doesn't like my FB posts on their page, they can always delete them. But I have the US Constitution on my side- called freedom of speech and since there is no threat of bodily harm or violence, nothing harassing being said, not violating Gaia ToS. I am being careful. We are just asking for what we are entitled to- the best experience for ourselves on this site. Why should we be singled out of all the best we can get?

Ah I was mistaken, I misread your last post. I thought multiple PMs were going to be sent to Lanzer. You're right then, theoretically it would be ok.

Best of luck! I hope your campaign helps your cause. 3nodding

Before I forget, is there still a Spring Cleaning forum, or has that been closed down by now?

It's still there being utterly pointless since Gaia seems to be working on things as and when anything wink

No problemo.

I'm not sure why Gaia didn't make it a hot topic ...

One of the site moderators- Pirhan- bumps it almost daily to keep it at the top of the forums! Gotta love her!

Also, sending 1 pm to Lanzer or anyone else isn't Spamming, and we aren't making any threats, other than stating we are boycotting buying gaia cash- and that's not a threat, that's an anti-threat.

And has anyone noticed that Uncle Kenny has been absent since he tried to get us to stop out campaign... HAHAHAHA

And I did notice that Panagrammic made one of the Dev Notices the other day- I am going to PM him! Wish me luck

Good luck and keep it up! 've been a member since 2006 and in these years I've always felt like Guilds got the shaft.

That would make a lot more sense. The future of the website is an important thing that affects everyone, and therefore should be constantly noticeable for everyone, not just those that were there for the announcement a year ago.

That...is very true xD
Adding commas to trades made sense, but how long did it take them to do that?
(Besides the time it takes to develop the feature. That I can't blame them for <3)

As a European, not having comma's was annoying as all hell! XD
