Hacking Protection

This is the most popular scam i've seen.
Name removed
Dear [username],
Your account is going to be banned unless you fill out this form.
Username-
Password-
Hopefully we can get this figured out. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
-Gaia Mods

Ok here's some reasons not to believe that
1. Mods will NEVER ask for your password. They could care less about it. The have it stored on the main harddrive and it won't be shared.
2. If you know you havn't done anything wrong don't panic about this. This "Mod" is just a greedy person that wants to steal your hard work!
3. Why believe this? If you've been good and followed Gaia Terms Of Service(TOS) then there's no reason there gonna ban you. Just don't panic and fill it out.

The Towns trick
This guy walks up to you in towns. You chat for a bit and he seems like a good guy to be friends with. Then he tells you to go to the next barton over....

Towns dude
Hey, Your my friend right? Why don't i tell my secret buddy your pass. He'll give you everything you ask within 10 mins. Come on just give me your pass and you'll be the richest n0b of Gaia!

1. You havn't known this guy for more then 30 mins. Why trust him with your password?
2. His "secret buddy" Is no more then some dude that logs onto your account and takes everything away. Leavin' your account nakid and not able to log onto
3. This happens a lot in towns. I know it's tempting. you know being the richest ever. But whatever you do don't believe it.

Hmmmm...this is another way i've been hacked.
A scary potato o_0
OMG OMG OMG!!! Your sooooooooooo lucky! You just won 1 million gold and anything you wish for!!!! All you have to do is give me your pass and I'll get that stuff right quick to you!!!!!!! biggrin biggrin biggrin

Okay 1. That's really scary 0.o.
2. You don't even know the (scary) girl/guy. Why even trust them Plus who just GIVES away stuff like that rolleyes

The Email thingy
This has been used oh SO MANY times on me!
name removed
Hey we work for an organization to help gaians that have been hacked. please email Username,Pass, What you want and why you want it to (name removed)@yahoo.com! then log off for 5 mins and log back on and there's your stuff! ^v^

1. Once again no one just GIVES millions in items away.
Just don't believe it please!

Please all Gaians. Do NOT believe what people say. There's no way to get gold except to earn it or if soemone's nice they give you a donation.

Private message Protection

ever know when your gonna leave for a few days?
I see that soem of you leave on vacation or visiting family or something. But you need to keep your Inbox nice and clean.

Be sure before you go to delete any replied messages. And if you can send a friends@gaia Pm saying your leaving and not to send a million messages to you. Be nice! sweatdrop

You have to go visit a family member for a few days and there's no online access availible.
I'ts simple. do this
Me pretending
Hey everyone! I have to go visit some family member and i won't be on for a few days. So don't worry/ And i kindly ask you don't send me 100 messages a day or my important PM's might be lost.
Thanx guys,
-Cherry Slushie

See? just be nice and they'll understand ^v^

Also. The Gaia Terms of Service says to keep your Pm's nice. Nothing you write should be over the PG-13 limit. What if your talking to a young mind about cybering(in detail)? Oh my! Don't do that. You shouldn't be cybering anyways.
(For those who don't know Cyber means to "hump" or a kind or "sex act" between 2 or more avi's. Whatever you call it, It's against Gaia T.O.S )

The Arena's
Please be kind to avitars in the avi arena, and art even if it's not that great
Avi arena
MOST people enter the Avi arena hopeing to win the 50k Prize! Don't be rude to them
rude
Oh your avi is so plain/clutterd/ugly. You shouldn't have enterd the arena rolleyes

You should cheer them on. If not just put "Bump" or something like that.
The one's that don't really need to be in the arena are so many Mule account or Nakid Avi's.They could have used that 1k to buy some better items then waste it in the arena D=
Art arena
Please be nice to all drawings there
Sure you may see some art that's not in golden led and the perfect million dollar art. But Gaians put there hardest into there work. at least say it's a good job. If not you might crush them and they never draw again! I used to be a poor artist. but since i was never crushed i've gotten better. let them get better to!
House arena
This isn't one i go to a lot
Just say great house or something even if it's all starter stuff.

Posting pix
It's fun right? Course! But there's rules
If you post a picture of yourself on Gaia please keep it PG-13 incase there's young eyes around ninja
For women Don't take pix that show your breasts, butt, or fronter area. No body wants to see it.
For men. No one want's to see your Fronter area either or your butt. Maybe you with a shirt off is ok. But no extreme nudity
And for the love of Kayleigh don't post pix of you and your boy/girlfriend kissing or having sex gonk gonk that is just down right nasty! Keep your love life to yourselves!

Your profile!
Keep your Profile PG-13!
Yes,yes i know Profiles are fun to makeand all. But don't put pix of Bewbs everywhere on it. gonk
As i've seen Gaia say. Make you profile as if your mom was to find it. Now would she really like your profilr with bewbs all over? I think not. So make it nice and creative but also under the PG-13 limit and you'l be fine! biggrin

Your journal
Just put what's happend today in gaia or in Real Life.
You can almost put anything as long as its ok with Gaia's T.O.S

The Market place!
For 1k you can get your own shop!
It's your choice whether or not to sell an item for the lowest market value prise or 199999999997420932843 gold
An example of that choice is, You have a coco you want to sell to get a guitar of demona. Do you sell it for 47k since the loest is 47.9k or do you just smack 1 million on it and wait for years for it to sell? sweatdrop
