Gaia Interactive, Inc. acquires RolePlayGateway

I am with mixed emotion announcing that after an intense series of negotiations, the online social gaming giant Gaia Interactive, Inc. (which runs Gaia Online) has purchased RolePlayGateway for an undisclosed sum. Effective immediately, I will be stepping down as owner of this site and will be handing the reins over to the new man in charge, Lanzer.

RolePlayGateway's innovative new method of organizing online roleplay was the deciding factor in Gaia Interactive Inc.'s decision. Gaia representatives stated;
We are extremely excited to have access to this new set of tools. We will begin deploying it immediately to Gaia Online to help our community find the vampire and high school roleplays as quickly as possible, and begin using the staff to write tutorials such as "How to roleplay as Edward Cullen" and "Becoming Emo: a Beginner's Guide".

All Gaia Online members will also be able to embed the RPG Chat in their forum topics, and participate and chat with the RolePlayGateway members using the new chat restrictions, where messages cannot be longer than 100 letters (we chose to do this to help prevent people from being too wordy!). Additionally, any and all roleplays on RolePlayGateway tagged with "Advanced", "Original", or "Epic" will be shut down to prevent them from overwhelming our 9 and 10 year old users.

Together with Gaia Interactive Inc., we can move forward into the future of online roleplay, where teenage emotion is king and vampire-werewolf-angel-demon hybrids are abundant!
