i love it XD ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Beware of PHONY ADMINS! We've seen lots of reports lately of people being scammed by jerks pretending to be mods, admins or NPCs. In order to help you determine who is an admin and who is just a jerk, we have compiled this handy reference guide:
Mods, Admins and NPCs...
Have their usernames tinted in purple, green, teal, red or orange.
Will NEVER EVER ask you for your password.
Will not send you PMs asking if you want to beta-test the Battle System or any other feature!
May have [NPC] in front of their name, but never anything else like "[MOD]."
Aren't jerks! Except maybe Ron Bruise...
Jerks...
Do not have purple, green, teal, red or orange usernames.
Will ask you for your password so they can hack you!
Will tell you that you will get gold for clicking on mysterious links (they are lying).
Will try to trick you by having phony names like "MOD BANNING BOT" or something. The only automated accounts that will PM you are the "admin" account and "[NPC]" accounts with red usernames. And they will NEVER ask for your password!
Will add things like "[MOD]" and "[NCP]" (notice that it is nCp instead of nPc) in front of their names to try to trick you! Some people use [NCP] as a roleplaying thing; those people aren't necessarily jerks. But if they ask for your password, REPORT 'EM!
Are JERKS!
If anyone ever asks for your password in a PM, even if they seem to have a reasonable story and you're totally convinced that they're a mod (hint: they're not a mod if they ask for your password!), report the PM right away so we can ban the heck out of the jerk who sent it to you!
If this all sounds too complicated, just remember this: don't ever give anybody your password for any reason! There is absolutely no reason that a real mod or admin will ever, ever need to ask for your password!
Beware of buying Gaia gold or items for real money!
The following section doesn't apply to Monthly Collectibles, Gift Credits, or anything else sold officially on gaiaonline.com; it only applies to items bought on third-party sites or auction sites.
Paying real money for Gaia gold or items is against our Terms of Service and is a total waste of money. The gold and items being sold on the internet are botted or hacked, which means that people who buy them will get in trouble!
Here is a timeline of what will happen when someone buys Gaia gold or items with real money:
[1] A Gaian pays some jerk on the internet for Gaia Gold or a rare item. [2] The jerk takes the Gaian's money. [3] We catch the jerk botting or hacking (we always catch 'em). [4] The jerk gets banned! [5] We check the jerk's trade history and see that he sent a Gaian a large amount of gold or a rare item. [6] We ban the Gaian for profiting from botting/hacking! Ouch! [7] The Gaian is sad because he wasted a bunch of money just to get banned! Alas!
