A very Gaia Online Valentine’s day

Tateru Nino — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 03:15:01 +0000

Valentine’s day elicits rather mixed responses in people. Some love it passionately, others loathe it with an equally fiery passion.

Gaia Online is covering both sides this year, with a mix of limited edition Valentine’s day items for lovers and haters of the occasion.

Acting out of convenience

Tateru Nino — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 16:20:32 +0000

Tateru Nino — Wed, 13 Sep 2006 01:55:00 +0000

Some folks say there’s no such thing as bad press.
