Obviously I haven't been working much on the inventory project. Life, it seems, happens.
But I did have some time the other day to try to file some of the items from the Daily Crap that I wasn't already overrun with.
And I went to my index file.
And I pulled up the page as indicated.
And the item wasn't there.
I checked the page before and the page after, since that's where 99% of the items end up with all the shuffling. Nope, it wasn't there either.
I was confuzzled. Had I really made that many mistakes? (It does happen, you know.)
I sat and pondered, while I was checking other items needing to be filed, whose index data was just as wrong. What the living hell happened?
It took awhile, but I finally figured it out. Gaia had moved all the Astra items out of the main inventory so that they show up in the Astra inventory only. I don't know the purpose of that, since flash doesn't work anymore, so they are only really static items, but this is Gaia. You'd think I'd've learned not to ask why.
With all those items gone, everything in the equippable inventory moved. Ok, not *everything*, but 90% of everything. I'm going to have to go through again and update the whole friggin' index file.
Yes, I'm annoyed. No, there's nothing to be done because Gaia has every right to do whatever the hell they want with this site. It's theirs, and other than the protections mandated by law, we have no rights here other than the right to leave.
I'm not leaving. At least not yet. But I am steamed about this. And more, the time I spent sorting those friggin' Astra items.
Ptui.
