Hi.

It's been a while since I wrote in this. No-one has given indication of reading it, nor do I think anyone does.

Gaia has been alright, I guess. But Gaia is still a lonely place and somewhat lacking fun. When I joined in 2008 life was easy, Gaia was fun with the games, and did not involve a) BG, b) inflation or c) lack of want. Gaia was cool in the months I played. Aquariums had been released, Pinball was alright, Towns was alright. Evolving Items were good - Fallen Wish, my EI god, Nano-C, Holy $#17 as demigods.

2 years on, I recame. I played Pinball perhaps twice, then I met MystiBlu (MystiMcMuffin) who told me that a game could generate much faster Gold than Pinball. And then I got hooked into Gaia, and later into HACT. Then Pokemon became a part of my interwebz life, like it had outside of the internet; I always had liked Pokemon games, even if Crystal was almost 10 years old. I shut my tank down on September 26, 2010, a month after I had found a cool Pokemon RPG (which, I admit, isn't cool).

I disappeared from Gaia for 1 year and a half; going through dedication to Pokemon and getting promoted to staff in September 2011. I got hell shortly before February 2012 when it finally got to me that a) I was bored, and had thought of leaving ages ago and b) that I wasn't wanted anymore. So I visited Gaia on February 3 to escape and found a new interest in it. But long had the days of getting Octopii passed, with my eyes in Pokemon I had failed to register the "omgcheapoctopii" urge in my head when I saw them at 15k a piece on June 25. Turns out they were removed in October, which sucks. The ironic thing is that I had bought a Screen King and Red Wing in July, but forgetting Octopii.

It's exam time now - May 2012 - and I want to keep Gaia away from my work really. Gaia is like a drug. So I've withdrawn my fish and replaced them with a mass of Goldfish for 2 weeks.
