Crazy adventures in this world we call, GAIA.

Final Thoughts on Moderation? I rarely have time to sit and read through PMs....being on GAIA Online for me is not all fun in games like most of you. It consist of...reading PMs...after PMs after PMs (for most moderators). Then moving onto hacking and scamming cases...~_~ I then go on the Donation FAQ thread...reply to questions and clean out Barton Town Forums and Ragnarok Online forums. I rarely visit Guilds forum due to my main goal to ...help better organize the Barton Town forum. sigh Sure...I have several thoughts of quitting GAIA Online....I just might do that some time this month. I haven't had a decent "fun" on GAIA Online...people view the Moderator status as being a police enforcer. But they don't know that GAIA Online won't be "organized", "cleaned", "community oriented", and "safe" for everyone of all ages. If I could tell those that are always hateful towards the Staff of GAIA Online ... try keeping this place intact. Oh sure...its easy...WRONG...it sure as hell NOT easy to moderate. I've always kept my Customer Service attitude when responding to a PM...but occassionaly you will recieve someone who is not satisfied with GAIA. We give the user as much reason as to why GAIA is like this. I remember this one incident where a user was so furious with me about the spam in Barton Town forum...that I was close to snapping at her. It was not my fault that users are creating threads minute after minute, seconds after seconds...I can't catch every single spam thread. I'm just a HUMAN being who needs rest away from the computer. HELL! I have a life outside GAIA Online! Just respect what we do...and let us do our job. This is a voluntary gig..... But anyways, I should put my PMs to friends' only for the time being. Maybe it'll give me time to answer my already piling inbox. And before being a Moderator ....that was what...1 or 2 years ago O_O? I STILL get PMs ....due to me being The GAIA Times Journalist back then. Hopefully, after a good night sleep...I'll have more thought on my future of Moderatorship....cause its no longer a walk in the park. Back when I began as a moderator (June of 2003) it was so peaceful to moderate a community of 500 users...but now...GAIA has reached...what...thousands or million users per day??? GAIA to me, is no longer a community...but its full of people with different agendas....every of which has good and the bad. I miss good ole GAIA...but now...its not what it is anymore. crying Hrmmm....after Anime Expo 2005...I might decide to step down from Moderator-hood or GAIA Online indefinitely. I haven't enjoyed a decent GAIA experience...since the sudden BOOOOOM of GAIA's user registration. The last event I've enjoyed being at was.....The FIRST Annual GAIA Online Anniversary Ball..back in 2003....but anyways...I'll be finishing up my Moderator duties and go back to becoming a regular user...in which I have not been since who knows when. I've become tired.... many of my friends ask me not to step down. The reason I join the GAIA community is to enjoy it...I'm not enjoying it anymore...I'm fearing the community.... crying hopefully....I'll change my mind because I like to help people and keep a positive attitude about it...but right now I really want to quit being a moderator. Just to let you know...I've always been the crazy, happy-go-lucky moderator that will talk to you in a friend to friend tone. Not a moderator to a user....that is not what I do.... crying *Edit* Lately, I've been very uncertain of my Moderating abilities...I think maybe its time to step down. Cause everything I do...seems to be inaccurate...

	<center>*hugs Arwen* I'm so sorry. Not that I did anything wrong, but I'm hoping just saying that makes you feel better. It's just seems that the younger generation think of the mods as super heros or something, and the older generation just don't comprehend the vastness of Gaia. I wish there was a way I could help you, but I can't. sad

Commented on: Thu Jun 02, 2005 @ 11:48pm


	Aww, seeing those crying smileys make me sad. sad Don't worry, Arwen, everything will be just fine. Yes, you should definitely take a break from Gaia and moderating. Quitting is not something that I would recommand. It's true that you do have alot of responsibilities on Gaia, so I advise you to just stick to the PMs and forums where you'll be most likely to find spam, miss placed, and other threads that need to be moderated. Besides all of that, I wish you a good luck on everything. heart

	Grabs his Baseball bat and hand gun, then stands beside Arwen wink I think you should take a break. Maybe make a new account, and start a new small life, as one of us.. A no body. I think you'll actualy like it xd I beleive ya when ya say that Moding must be hard,a nd it was easy. I have run and helped run several boards before, i knwo the score. Its simple at first, but then a few months later, it's utter hell. Int he begining the place is nice, small-ish and cosy;everyone knows everyone. Then there is a big boom in sign up's, next thing ya know your swiming in spam/hate/moding Pm's gonk But yeah, like I say, I'll help ya, and I think you should take a break. Im quite sure you are dying to run into the Chatterbox and post the biggest thread of non stop, minute to minute posts of pure and utter spam blaugh lol Again, I wish ya good luck Arwen 3nodding

	cry I've submitted my resignation for July 9th. Heh ^^;; I can't turn back now...so...my last month to moderate...and I'm free. I'm just tired of it all...No more breaks..I took too many breaks..and came back with 121 PMs in my inbox. People say things... stare so...time to quit and move on. I'll stay with GAIA..but as a user....no more beign a Moderator. 2 years and going on 1 month..its enough GAIA memory to last me a life time. Thank you to all users who have given me encouragements...and hope everyone enjoys all the upcoming things for GAIA Online.

	Arwen, I've always appreciated the work you have done for the site, and your long dedication to it. I will always remember you being willing to help clear out a group of cybering lesbians from me and my friend's mini-side-plot RPG in Barton Town. smile Granted that was around a year ago, but regardless, you were/Still are the savior of barton town, and you did/do an AMAZING job. I may have never thanked you before, but I surely will not forget it. smile

	I'd be sad...but that'd be unfair, as most of what you've said is entirely spot-on. I mean, I don't remember Gaia as anything other than a metropolis - when I joined, the average usership was 2k or thereabouts. Whatever community there was was already vicious, spiteful, and hateful, for a large part. But I can imagine that, when you did start out as a mod, it was more peaceful. Not that I'll pretend to understand how stressful it is to mod one of the largest forums on the Internet (and I believe the most active)...but I can't imagine how stressful it must be to deal with users who expect you to be perfect on a day-in, day-out basis. And if it's getting you down, then yes, resigning really was the best thing you could do. Though, a lot of people will miss you as a mod - I know I will.

	I still remember when I was a newb a little over a year ago. You were hte only moderator to actually help, rather than just yell and move threads. Im gonna miss havin ya around, even though I rarely need a mods help any more.

Commented on: Sat Jun 04, 2005 @ 12:03am


	I can't imagine dealing with 10 angry inconsiderate users at one time.. @.@ I tried to tell one to be glad for what Gaia goes, and she just went of and screamed in all caps.... Yeah. You were/are a great mod, your name always stuck in my mind. I thought it was cool. XD Have fun enjoying your time as a non-mod, I'm sure it'll be an interesting experience.

I wish you luck for the future and I must say, I do wish you would stay as mod. Thanks for being there for Gaia and I hope you stick with us as a regular user for a while. 'Imp heart

	Gaia Online We have 1984898 registered users One million new users in nine months. We're going to have two million users next week or the week after, I just know it. cry I think you made the right decision to step down. Gaia has just turned into a three-humped, retarded beast at a violently high rate. We have people putting "chat with me plz" in GD because they can't use their eyes and their hands to feel their way around like their supposed to. They can't even read the stickies. I remembered about a week before I entered Gaia, I was in the dorm room of another Gaia user, riki99. We were pretty much in awe because the number of users just reached one million, and we were in a panic that Gaia would just fall on its a and collapse from having too many users. Apparently, it didn't happen then, but now I'm thinking it just might. Here I am now, almost eight months on Gaia, not quite a newb and not quite a veteran either, and I still think it's going to fall on its a. Not because of user overload, but also because it's being overrun by dregs who can't follow simple rules that are there in front of them and can easily be learned if they take the time to look through them. That, and both the oldbs and newbs think that "prince watercress suxxxx he has 10000 posts and still dresses like a looser." It wasn't until January that I figured out that the majority of newbs on Gaia are desperate, gullible people who think that the site is all about the items and not the fun and that gaining gold is easy. Sorry, buster, it took me eight friggin months' for me to get 10,000 posts and almost 140K. And I'm still wearing the peasant clothes because I'm too lazy to buy or even equip anything else, other than the fact that I like it. Hope the last 26 months you've spent on Gaia didn't completely wear you out. Hope the next 26 aren't complete and utter bullcrap. ~PrinceWatercress Official Gaian Snitch

	We're going to miss you Arwen - you've been a great positive influence on Gaia and whenever people talk about their favourite moderators your name invariably comes up. I hope that resigning lets you enjoy Gaia again. I understand where you're coming from, and if you don't enjoy what you're doing then why bother? Keep in touch and learn to enjoy Gaia again. :hugs:

Have you ever thought about using a new avvie? I bet you might enjoy some anonymity... Although I bet you're attached to your old one. lol, maybe you can RP a vacation. surprised

You know how much trouble you caused my Donation FAQ thread D I can't edit anything on the first post xd Anyways, my name stuck out cause its Arwen domokun But you're right ^_^ if you can't keep your cool for 10 customers during the Holiday Shopping season...its hard for you as a person to help these people. Subliminal Message ^^;; but look at all the cool things that are gonna appear ini GAIA in the coming Months wink [.Impartial.Sanity.] Heh ^^;; I'm going to miss helping people...but you know what? I can still help people o,O Its not like being a user you can't help people....we all help someone. Its just not having the so called "moderator power" will delay in the help process. But I don't really care about that Mod-status....its just a title o,O and a few extra quirks. Nothing more of a few buttons ^_^ InsaneHyperDragon I still have responsibilites XD

Commented on: Sat Jun 04, 2005 @ 03:43am


	YuZuRiHa NeKo but there won't be a GAIA Online XD PrinceWatercress heheh XD I have to agree with you as a person! And thank you D Anilina S. shock Thank you Ms. I want your hair but I can't >.> I wish you the best and don't let anything bother you. Zen_Gentleman_Lifeguard I like my avie ;_; I rarely change....the only thing I've ever changed was my hair.....heh. OMG RPing xD haven't done that since becoming a moderator. Angel_hacker I can't really answer that because...there was no moderators back then...just admins moderating the forums. Having the honor of being chosen by the Admin Team (Lanzer, L0cke, CP, VO, Ling) was the best thing ever. I was able to help people not just by lingering in the Question & Feedback forum (back then) I was able to help the whole of GAIA Online. THAT was the greatest experience of all...and being able to OMG....CLEANING those forums was the best thing ever!! That was my motive as a moderator...but now it seemed to have evolved into even more...not just helping but...punishing those that ruin other users experience. But anyways...Moderating was never a fun job....its more of a duty then a having fun. You can't have fun banning someone....you can't have fun telling someone you can't get your account back...or have fun telling someone you're violating TOS. That is not fun....but someone has to punish those that ruin other people's enjoyment of GAIA Online. About mule accounts....I took a stand against mule accounts the moment I joined GAIA Online. And till this day I do not have a mule account. I hope to keep it that way as a GAIA user....with a goal.

Commented on: Sat Jun 04, 2005 @ 05:02am


	I would never ask you not to step down, it is voluntary and no one expects you to keep it up forever, I (and I'm sure many others) would prefer that you step down rather than being driven away from gaia entirely. -If that is what you feel you need to do. Sorry to intrude upon your journal, but I saw you post in the Q+A and direct someone to your journal and so here I am.

	This is a ramdom question, but i've allways wondered, did you get all that good stuff on your avvie? did you get it from being a mod, people donating, or did you earn it?

	As one of the older users of Gaia I must say I too miss the good old days. Personally, after reading a few of your entries, Arwen, I think it's time the Zombie Mod got some good R&R. You were one of the more appreciated Mods, but with things as hectic as they are, it sounds like you've made the right decision in stepping down. Hope everything goes well for you as a regular Gaia user, and yes, I'd HIGHLY suggest putting your PMs on friend's only so you don't get hundreds of PMs that need a Mod after you aren't one anymore. Much love to ya, Arwen. heart

Moderators AND Administrators of the site DO NOT get free items/gold. All the gears I have on me was earned by me...I did not do any quest >.> all from my blood & sweat.

	Saga, thats no essay, thats the Bible, rewritten in Arwen's words surprised Im sure Arwen wont mind me goin slightly offtopic here, and maybe you'll see my point there too. People are complaining that Gaia is goin down hill, and is being beastified. Then why dont we change that, and help those who are turning it like that. Thats why I made my guild, or reconstructed it. Basicaly we (there is liek 3 or 5 of us sweatdrop ) are gonna invite newbs to our guild to pretty much educate them, and teach them bout Gaia, how to have fun and not to ruin it at the same time. But anyway, I mean, why dont we help more people out, teach them a thing or two. Like the aims of my guild, educate them. I just know there is gonan be some people lookin at this like, "Yeah, educate newbs, no chance" But that is somethin me and the others are determined to try, and acomplish. After that huge boom in spam the other day in the GD, we relised that pretty soon, all of Gaia will be like that. Deterence is better than cure, no? Anyway, just some food for thought. Sorry again Arwen for wasting more of your journal space sweatdrop

Commented on: Sat Jun 04, 2005 @ 09:46pm


	(I think it's cool that you take the time to reply to all your journal comments... 3nodding ) Arwen, what do you think you'll do with your time off? Are you seriously thinking about going back into RP? Otherwise, are you just going to hang out around the forums? I bet you're pretty busy IRL with work and all. But it'd be cool to hang out. (It looks like you already have a journal fan club... sweatdrop )

	I completely understand why you are stepping down Arwen. I've been modding almsot a year less than you have, and I've quested resigning a few times myself. I've always looked up to you, even when I was just a little baby Gaian xd I'm sorry its no longer fun for you. I hope after you resign things will go back the way they should be; when GAIA was fun and not a chore. Take care Arwen, hope to speak to you again. Who knows, maybe I can actually make it to AX xd

Commented on: Sun Jun 05, 2005 @ 02:09am


	Aww... Sad to hear that you'll be stepping down from your current position. I had also looked up to you, among others that stood out in the mod group, but, like everyone had said before me, it's for the best. Even I feel guilty and regret having told people to PM you to resolve further problems... sweatdrop This forum has, indeed, boomed in monumental proportions and there just aren't enough people willing to volunteer to help those who help others. Well, I hope that maybe you'll have some fun again and enjoy GAIA as it had been intended to be made. 3nodding ^_^

Maybe an option instead of demodding would be become a decicated moderator? Maybe it will get you a new challenge and a little less stress.

	Well, it's not as if you're going to be gone, so I can't say I'm sad about it. Your name was the first mod's name to become familiar in my mind, as I spent so much time in Barton Town during my early days on Gaia. I've always looked up to you, as you seemed to be one of the most patient people on Gaia, seeing as how BT is turning out. If you think this is the best thing to do for yourself, I approve of it 100%. Hell, I sure don't want to be a moderator. xd

Commented on: Wed Jun 08, 2005 @ 12:34am


	I don't know if you enjoyed it or not, but I certainly enjoyed the Elven Guild Shelala you organized... that was in April after the FIRST annual Gaian Ball... and it was when I first met you. I say take a break from moderating if you have to, but I encourage you not to quit Gaia altogether. There are still those of us who remember the old days fondly... and there are still spots on Gaia where it's still something like old times. Heck, start posting in the Yakuza again. I don't know... only you can decide what's good for you, but I can say that I do miss seeing you randomly post in places just for the fun of it.... ~Your distant but always there friend~ Kelwyn EDIT: And now that I've read all the comments... Good for you! xd I really do hope to take up RPing again from time to time... it'd be fun, cause you were always so good at it. 3nodding

	I hear ya Arwen. Being a mod a couple of years ago was swell. It really felt like we made a difference and yet we still got to have fun and be a regular user. I had to quit for the same reasons. Too much stress and I was not having fun anymore. It's sad that mods have to feel this way and quit since Gaia needs mods, but mods need to be human too. Oh well. Good luck!

	heart I would just like to thank you for taking your time to moderate, I never knew how hard it was on you guys untill I read this. I will never complain about a mod again!
