Gaiapedia:Sandbox/List of Gaia Online glitches

Gaia Online is still at alpha stage, here is a list of glitches current and past users reported.

Glitches Galore
Organizer, suitcase, storage are very glitchy, best if not used as some users appear to have lost items while saving. Feb 2006 letters cannot be traded. The Faktori (furniture store) is down as well. And users are not able to delete PMs at the moment either. The robots on Towns are not accepting any bugs/trash. Finally rare event boxes/trunks cannot be opened.
 * Status: Unsolved
 * Reported: February 23, 2006
 * Description:

There are no workarounds for these issues at the moment, please be patient.

Delete PM Workarround
Private messages may be deleted one at a time by clicking the subject line, scrolling to the bottom of the PM, and hitting the delete button. This will only delete the private message you are viewing at the time.

Avatar Glitches
Members' avatar images are currently glitching sporadically. Their normal avatars are replaced with other members' avatars, malformed versions of their current avatar, or Gaia Houses. Resaving your avatar may fix this problem, but there is no known solution at this time. Please be patient while this item is being attended.
 * Status: Fixed
 * Reported: February 18, 2006
 * Description:

Seeing another user's avatar instead of your own while posting or surfing the site does not mean you have been hacked. Please do not file Hacking Reports if you are experiencing this glitch.

Bank trading glitch: Error Taking Item out of Your Inventory
This is an older issue. Apologies in the delay for reporting it. Gaian users seem to be unable to trade the last item out of their inventory into another account. When they try, the "Error Taking Item out of Your Inventory" message appears.
 * Status: Unsolved, Workarround Avail.
 * Reported: February 11, 2006
 * Description:

Workarround: While there is no way around this at current time, buying an inexpensive item and leaving it in your inventory as a placeholder will allow you to get whatever item you've trapped in your inventory out and to send it off to other users. Alternately, using the gift system to gift the final item to whichever use you plan to send it to may work as well.
