Hello, I started Gaia in about '06, when me and all my friends would go to the public library after school and all play together. I was a big lover of towns, zOMG, slots and games, and making avis on tektek.

I stopped playing around 2012 and never had a computer since to really get on.
Since then I've gone through a few bad relationships, even more bad friendships, graduated culinary school, worked in kitchens then lost my ability to work in kitchens, gained a few close friends, and now I'm back!

I'm Ray, 31, they/them nonbinary who loves horror, video essays, sodas, cats, and is happy to be back.

Haii! I started in Gaia back on 06 or 07, when one of my friends showed me and got me addicted to anime as well. Gaia was a huge part of my teen years, and I remember having so much fun and making great friends here. I've really missed it.

I miss when the servers were full on most games, and you never had to look far to find new interesting people to chat with.

I'm a days, I'm a mom, a business owner, and I've turned into someone who's kinda cool. I like foraging, gardening, mushroom picking and just plants in general. Still an anime addict. Not easy finding people with similar interests lol

I kept seeing this guild pop up when I was looking for stuff to do in forums. :3 yay.

welcome!

my partner has recently gotten into gardening! originally as a cost cutting measure, but now they love it and built a second garden bed. we do zucchini, peppers of all kinds, thyme, mint, cucumbers, eggplant, and most recently pumpkins, which are a massive pain in the a** but really cool lol

i really love anime but i'm VERY picky; as a result i haven't watched a ton.

i'm def corny with DBZ, love Cowboy Bebop and Trigun. Yu Yu Hakasho's theme song oddly informs most of my personal morals and politics.

and hell yes to the moms out here!

hello fellow NB!

i do a lot of youtube/streaming stuff behind the scenes when i can, so i share that passion. many of those passions!

i'm sorry about the bad relationships. i had several before i met my partner.

i have a disability that compromises my immune system, so i completely understand the not working in kitchens, maybe from a different angle.

Glad you're here!

biggrin Being Picky is good. Anime is so vaste, I personally feel like most people have favorites. I personally just can't watch the ones who are too childish or cringe. I'll likely get a lot of hate, but I can't even force myself to watch one piece lol has nothing to do with the bazillion episodes because I've finished all the other long a** animes out there xD

Heyyy, how's it goin?

Figured I'd join and see others around my age who were around during the glory days.

I joined around 2004-2005 when I was like 13 or 14. This is actually my second account after my first got hacked and never recovered (RIP.)

After the first account got hacked, I kinda fell out of Gaia over time and once in a while I pop in to get my nostalgia fix. I am not into anime as much as I used to be but I can always appreciate a good one. Most recently my favorite being Attack on Titan because the story was so good. But I love anime from my generation mostly. Open to suggestions! Good story is a huge must.

Happy to see some of us legends are still kickin'.

Oh hey everyone, thanks for letting me join!

I joined Gaia back in '04 and have come back here and there for some reason or another. For some reason I've always been drawn to Gaia, either the art direction, the marketplace, or the general community.

Its both cool and bizarre being back after all those years though.

Current day I work for a small TV Production company producing a few outdoor esq tv shows. I get to play with cameras and travel a lot (I also have to edit non stop) so I can't complain too much,

Excited to hopefully meet and chat with a bunch of OGs! heart

oh man i don't even remember when i started playing, definitely younger than i should have been allowed! i'm 30 years old and came back after my friends and i were talking about gaia. i noticed it was still running, so i signed up right away! i honestly can't say how happy i am to be back. its fantastic that a relatively small group of people have kept this site going.

this site was honestly one of my biggest motivations for drawing and that also played a huge role in my life growing up.

as for me as an adult, i'm married and i work as a data analyst. i play a lot of video games but i also frequently go to ska concerts.

it's nice to meet you all!

Hello Friends,

I need to go to bed shortly as I as I am quite tired, but I think I joined around 2004 when I was 13, I have not been active for about a decade. I recently decided to poke around the site out of nostalgia and found this guild to be an interesting idea. I hope you all have a wonderful day and the weather is great.

Ahoy ahoy;

I definitely started towards the tail end of high school 2003, 2004 maybe. A friend at the time was already on here and convinced me to join. I've met some really cool people through here. Some I still keep in touch with. I remember lots of vampire shenanigans lol XD

My OG account is out there...somewhere in the aether.

This is a fun trip down nostalgia lane.

Yay fellow enbies!! I joined gaia back when I was 14 in 2006, I think it might have been over the summer. I had an old quizilla friend introduce me to it over on aim, and then I become an active member through out most of my teens. I can't remember why I stopped, it think it was in 2010? I might have gotten distracted with tinierme and I'm really sad it shut down ksdfjksdjf my avatar on there was so cute ; _ ;
