Been gone for a long time, and it looks like I've missed quite a bit. Hoping to see some familiar faces and make some new friends.
Drop me a line and let me know you're still here, or introduce yourself if we haven't met.
If anyone has the bandwidth to help me avoid wading through a ton of old notifications, I'd also appreciate any advice you could give to help get caught up - what have I missed? What's new?

Well hello there friend! It has literally been YEARS!! I recently got back on here as well and I am still trying to figure out all the new stuff. Welcome back! Glad to see you on here again.
Nice to see folks again, and meet some new people! I've gone ahead and sent friend requests to the people I hadn't met yet, and look forward to getting to know you better.
A few years ago I was really active here, particularly while working a graveyard shift that gave me lots of time to be online, and back then I was Crew for the Gaming subforum.
Since then I've gone into tech support and am now a Training Specialist for a game company, officially teaching the nerds to be better nerds.
My wife and I are doing our very best to navigate the epidemic, as they've got health issues which require us to take every precaution. Our son is turning 10 at the end of the month, and we're struggling to figure out how to celebrate that milestone.
How has everyone else been? Old friends, catch me up! New friends, tell me about yourselves! It's nice to have folks to chat with! mrgreen

Oh hai thar. Welcome back! My name is Naru. I've been on and off Gaia since 2004. Good times. Well, zOMG! is still a thing (you should check it out) and the Developers aren't doing anything but patchwork. Something about how the original Gaia website cannot support the newer technology....??? They can't make new quests or storylines, basically. Also, from your other post, Animated items are no longer animated because of above reason. You will notice a lot of ads and pushing for you to spend IRL money on Gaia Cash to buy buy buy things. Lanzer left, sold Gaia to another company, the new company drove Gaia into the ground and then Lanzer came back and bought it back. In my opinion, current Gaia and Gaia from even 5 years ago is not the same. I miss how each holiday event was more interactive with NPCs, how they had a Manga for the storyline. Now every event is basically a gold-sink or really basic. I guess the OG Gaia Admin either left or stopped trying.
