What do you miss most about the old Gaia?

[HiddenMelon]

Helloo, returning user here.

I started back in idk 2006-2008.
I miss TekTek, making outfits and questing for them was so much fun.


Its so strange now, items i used to quest forever for are now just like 1 platnium

I guess i miss the value of gold, the people i used to talk to all the time.
None of those people log on anymore.

I made a new account to start fresh too, so its a weird experience with the new currencies.

Sighs, I miss the fact that the site used to actually be active. I came back because the members of my old guild wanted to restart it, and I am seeing the same inactivity come back.

So, I am seriously regretting the decision.

Probably won't be back on here much longer ....

I also miss a lot of the people who used to hang out here.

Now I am done whining ...I am going to go do something else much more interesting.

I miss having tek tek and miss having the Thank you letters.  

[Remedy Forgotten]

I miss puzzles being my main way of earning gold, now they give nothing.

I am glad fishing is still here. I also miss tektek, as I am not very good at the avi builder gaia has. I also miss a lot of my older friends, that have quit and I have no idea how they are doing.

I miss the monthly collectibles! All of these rigs and flow of new items has this oldbie's head spinning. It's a little bit overwhelming. Also, I miss the activity and fun that there once was before.

I miss Tektek, for sure. Other than that, I think things are generally better than they were. I preferred when the inflow of new items was a lot slower, though. Sure, you had to wait for new items, but you were 80% less likely to miss half the new items. I don't even know what all is out there anymore, and I'm an ATer, so I'm used to being able to point people to the correct item. gonk

I do miss TekTek and just the simpler website, I guess? The events used to be something I always came back for but now it just didn't feel worth it to do them anymore. sweatdrop

I miss a lot of things from when I first started, like the gold currency and my old friends, but then again I'm back because another site I was on went down and no longer exists. Even though it's clearly not the same from when I left I'm just happy that Gaia is still here.

After 2005, the community and internet as a whole really took a turn for the worse. People became more crass and trolls poured in. Now Gaia's a cesspool full of pathetic adults age 20-40 who refuse to get jobs or stop living off of their aging parents. And everything revolves around the Cash Shop now. I just don't see incentive to waste my hard earned money on a website that's basically become 4chan lite.
