The recent appearance of the Warp Portal at the Great Wall of Gambino and the previous events related to the Zurg have left many Gaians wondering what will happen next. The biggest plot updates ocurred during Halloween and Christmas which include their arrival, the apparent death of Flarn (09) and 02 taking over Christmas after unintentionally swiping Santa's mind with the mind of a cow. The truth is that in between a lot more has been going on, but many of this details are unknown to most of us Gaians.
There is a topic that records everything related to the Zurg:
http://www.gaiaonline.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=18753841
But I honestly don't care much about it, I just go with the general plot and always will. xp
Is February once again, so you all know what that means: Gaia's 4th anniversary is coming soon! blaugh
However we had the already implented Valentine's event.
During 3 days we could go around the event forum kissing other Gaians with the button below thwir avatars, for every 5 kisses we received the only event item called the Labu necklace ( I must have collected like 30 surprised ). There was also a special bar that slowly filled up as we kissed more people:
(female bar) (male bar)
Everytime our rank went up we received an amount of gold that increased more the higher the rank achieved. mrgreen There wasn't anything else that could be considered special during that event, just lots of ''PLEASE KISS ME!'' threads. xp Here is my record by the way xd :
The month continued it's course until:
Finally! The 4th anniversary event of Gaia was here! blaugh
The special event banners:
There were more things to do during the event, I along with other oldbies discussed our memories about Gaiaonline since the days the site was called Go-gaia. xd

^(Great thread, I suggest you open it and surf around 3nodding )
As you will notice most of the memories are here in my own journal, but it was amazing the stuff other people came up with that I was not aware of. eek I will also take this opportunity to add two more links, so we can remember more about Gaia's past:

As for the event items we got the blue, red and super anniversary roman candles by answering a quiz:
The questions were of multiple choice related to previous Gaia events, for getting all 10 questions right you got a roman candle. I got over 50 altogether, and most of the questions were too easy for me but lots of users were struggling for answers and even complaining. xp Eventually topics with all the right answers appeared for everyone's relief.
There was also a plot update were we finally got to see what the warp portal was for and the Zurg's following plans:
Poor 02, after all he did for us. sad After all Flarn was alive, and it turns out now that we are to blame for all this mess? I thought it was 011 and 06 attempt to kill their own brother the igniting spark. rolleyes Anyways the Zurg has left, which was seen by most of the Gaia population as something good and as for those who were totally involved with them it was seen as something unfair. I am kinds glad they are gone, too many missed details, and there was a lot of confussion.
However I also believe they will come back, just check one of the Jigsaw puzzles: ''This summer, resistance is futile.'' So we haven't seen the last of the Zurg, wahmbulance Gaia Resistance stay alert! wahmbulance Believers, be ready! xd
Too be continued....
Now for the rest of the updates:
- The Gaia store made yet another update. - The Donation Items were released, and once again we got 3: . Dark Star . Celestial Wrap . Celebrity Date ( xp )
- Weekly comic of the month:
Lanzer also made an important announcement during the last day of the month:
Hello everyone,
We have a lot of big events planned for 2007, and on top of that we're going to work on creating some events, quests and items based on movies and anime titles.
New Line Cinema recently asked us to promote their new movie “The Last Mimzy” on Gaia. We checked out the trailer and thought it looked pretty cool, so starting next week we will be putting some info around the site to help spread the word about the movie. There will be a special Last Mimzy Quest available (and a free exclusive item!) for those who are interested.
In the future there might be a few more partnerships with film or anime studios, but we'll be careful to choose cool stuff that you might like. Stay tuned for more details!
Can't wait to see what Gaia will bring for us next month, there are words of a possible new quest update coming in March. surprised Let's wait and see what happens.
