yesterday was valentine's day. i recieved a very rude PM from someone from Q & F regarding a post i made about my omg hat a while back. she accused me of being materialistic because i was upset that the sellback ate my OMG hat, as i'm pretty sure anyone would be when they are trying to sell back a 200 gold pair of sneakers but get robbed a few 100k in the process. i didn't even PM her back. instead, i gave away all of my items to strangers. every last one, given away at random to people in the charity and items wanted forums. i had 857,500 gold worth of items. now i have only peasant's clothes.

i guess i wasn't really trying to prove anything to this girl - if i was, i probably would have sent her a PM back bitching her out because she was pretty out of line. my post in Q & F was pretty benign, and was just like, "am i getting my hat back, or should i move on?" regardless, it got me think about what it is i like about gaia. sure, i liked my items. a few of you know i had an unhealthy obsession with some of them. i like the people more, though. for the past two or so months, i've been so jaded by the loss of my hat and other stupid glitches on gaia that i just stopped coming on and eventually lost all the links to all the places i enjoyed going in the process. i tried feebly to reopen my store a while back, but my heart wasn't exactly in it. i only wanted to make money back so i could buy the stupid hat again.

i guess what i'm saying is, i miss my gaia friends and i liked gaia a lot more when i first found it. i didn't really care about gold, i figured most items were out of my reach, so i just hung out and talked to people.

anyway, this is all melodramatic nonsense. i feel good that i gave random people stuff, although one girl was pressing me to finish a trade in which i was giving her 40k worth of letters after i had logged off. i guess people never change sweatdrop
