Hello!

While rummaging through your clothes you discovered a key in your inventory under the Game tab. You can feel an aura of power and agelessness, and can barely see faint symbols that remind you of alchemy. Touching the keys gives you warm memories back to your first day on Gaia, and you intuitively understand that you have received one key for every year you've been on the site. A mystery!

i didn't know the admin will look into your closet D8
thats that mean, we got hacked... ;n;?

No, you have not been hacked. Every so often they give you a certain amount of keys depending on how long you've been on the site. They're used for Alchemy here, though I'm not sure what formulas they're for.

EDIT:
Another way to know it was an admin, the name should be in yellow/orange unlike how normal usernames are blue.

Don't worry, it's not a real person and it's not a hacker, it's just like any other gift they send out except that it changes for however long you've been on here.

The whole "While rummaging through your clothes you discovered a key...." is just to make it sound interesting. Instead of just saying "Here's a key for alchemy for being on here for another year", they wanted to make it seem a little more interesting.
