So I joined gaia online last weekend because Tasha's on again, off again boyfriend was over and OMG had to have me join there because it is the spiffiest website ever. Last weekend I spent, well, in all fairness to the site, very little time looking at it. I was talking to Scottie. Gaia was very low on my list of priorities.
Anyway, I looked at it tonight. No, I'm not sure why either. I would have had more fun playing on neopets... I have a character. I have a clear vision of what I would want her to wear. I clicked around in the shops and didn't find a simple thing to fill the requirement. It would have been fine if you could change the color of the clothing, but you can't. Oh for the want of a color. Plus, I don't have many points. Ok, fine, so you can earn points by just clicking around the site. But unless you are clicking around a lot it's a painfully slow way to make points. My character is running around in a rag because I don't see a point in buying her something that I don't actually care for. Technically, I equipped the peasant dress last weekend. I tried to unequip the thing because I would actually prefer the underwear to the dress but the bloody site kept giving me an error message when I would try. *rolls eyes* Not that it's that important but meh.
I spiffed up my profile with a premade them I found online -credited, of course- (If I for some reason become very active in gaia I'll actually make one myself. But atm I don't see a point in putting more time into something I don't see myself spending much time on.) But the default themes were fugly. So I changed it.
I looked on the forums and found... very little intelligent conversation. It's like the chatboards on neopets. *shudder* But the thing about neopets is that I joined guilds there that contained people capable of intelligent conversation. (And in almost every guild I became council. bwahaha) I don't know if there is any hope for that on gaia... prolly, but since I hardly ever even have time to go in my neopets guilds... Generally I just come on lj now. I like it here.
I don't really see any point of me looking on the site very much... I would like to customise my character, but the way to make points is annoying. If I were someone who would enjoy posting there it wouldn't be a problem... but atm, I'm not particularily interested. I have my lj, or neopets. Once I customise my character though, then what would I do?
I need to go to sleep. :P
