I'll just sell all my stuff when I'm done with it and buy massive art. haha

I'm still there. I can find rps there. Yaoi rps. I can't abandon them XD

Well, I wonder what gaia will do after the current CEO is gone and they realize that Tenticle is another of their failed ventures.

I...don't really think Tentacl has failed yet?

Gaia is gone. (This CEO will kill it)

And Tentacl will only flourish if the heavy cash users of Gaia go there....too much basic shit costs money.

xD I feel bad because I am actually on Tentacl and I enjoy the site. My friend and I have been posting around and their one game is mildly amusing. I am hoping it doesn't fail because I do not really see myself going back to gaia and outside of Tris I am not so active on a lot of avatar sites.

i dont see it thriving so there is no point in joining, i will just continue to ride the gaia train on it's deathspiral

I joined Gaia almost 10 years ago... It will be 10 years in August. (holy crap I can't even comprehend that)
I quit and gave away all of my items to a friend a few years back and I haven't looked back once.
Not too long after they opened up the cash shop and all of their RIG items went for 120k, I left.
You could spend about 30 real dollars, and end up with a million gold by the end of the day. It was absolutely ridiculous.
Also all of the new monthlies went for like 70-90k.
I don't know how it is now, because like I said, it's been years since I've been there, but it was not going well the last time I looked.
I remember back in the day when the only cash items were monthlies and you could buy them for like 12k in the marketplace.
Those were the good old days...

monthlies are over a million gold each and that is nothing

Ew, gross. I'm glad I left.
I heard they re-created old monthlies like the scarfs, sash, and minis and made different colors?
I don't know how I feel about that.

@Zosa: I am not so pessimistic about the site. One because it has the commercial commerce of gaia to back it up and two gaia wants to keep its older members. There are ads for it on at least 3-4 sites that I go to. I also think it lets older users be nostalgic about gaia while finding people their age to talk to with out swimming through trolls.

@Anon: XD yeah I went back once and still managed to be poor even though I had a lot of gold. It was silly.

I just made a few billion in a few hours last night. It is absurd. I don't put any more cash into the site, but I used to. Anyhow my billions are not worth much, maybe 3 or 4 nice items, or more if you catch a good deal.

That makes me sick to my stomach. I remember when one million could buy you anything.

I haven't been back on Gaia for ages. I basically only played Zomg cause it was safer than going onto the forums through in truth, I did a spend quite a bit of real cash to get some items I wanted when I was truly hooked on Gaia. I lost interest when things started going way too out of price range on there and every week, new cash items were offered. Only way you could get most of the older items was to come a cash cow..

they did and now all new items will have a recolor within a month of it's release, up to i believe seven also there are loads of old rig and monthly recolors, thereabouts 5-7 recolors to each new item with easily a half a dozen cash/shop updates every day

i had almost 3billion gold and i could only afford two super cheap items, that was half of my gold too, items are in the hundreds of billions for the rare stuff, billions for the common stuff, millions for the cheap stuff and anything under 8 million is not really worth having

Wow. That's insanely ridiculous.

Also, looking at previous posts, what exactly is tentacl?
