: sad Crazy) Comments::

Paris_Rocker_chick

I'm Native American so since my parents won't let me live in a teepee or hut i want to be able to on gaia. I mean it could have the same space just leather walls and wood holding it up and dirt. And you could sell bear skins.

Grath

My suggestion is to make it not use shockwave. Not being able to use a house because the program Gaia uses is bigoted against Linux (It has windows and mac versions. But noo, no LINUX.) pisses me off.

Moonside

When we can cook food and plant stuff in our own gardens for gold/items I'll officially love Gaia heart

whee

The Caffeine Queen

I think the cloaks should be able to become just moons and suns we can put on the walls

bai_ai_ning

I just want my avatar to move, now that would be something. You could use the hand to grab your character and move him around. It would be cool if you could look after your avatar and train it, like back in the day of the tamigotchi..........or what ever they are called sweatdrop

El_Chico_de_Fuego

Housing option of being a hobo (Live in a box....*snickers*)

angrypuppy

I think houses are a great way to get to know more about other Gaians, just by seeing what colors they like or what items they choose to leave laying around, so more stuff you can personalize, even with just a list of names or something, would be nice!

OnsenMark

how about vermine, like rats or cockroaches that you can trap or squish? And as a bonus, for every pest you catch while viewing someone else's home, you get 1 gold per pest caught

Since I'm too lazy, and since Meriko has formed a very nice list of wanted items, I'mma just quote her. whee

Meriko

Furniture:

Night light that attaches to a wall tile and looks like it's plugged into an outlet.

I would have thought they would plan it out so you could have your girlfriend or mates own the same house?

It'd be nice if you could put things on your wall besides shelves and windows. How's about some posters of...hm....NPCs? Hahaha....then everyone would know how much you love Sasha, Moira, Ian, or Edmund 'n all the rest!

Other things to put on the wall could be picture frames or Gaian event posters! 3nodding
