I'm wondering why the next server will be named Gaia?...It'd make a lot more sense if they named it Jupiter, We do have every other planet besides Jupiter *Not counting Earth cause who would want to play on a server named Earth?* named after a server...So why Gaia and not Jupiter?

O hai. Head of JoyMax here. We are naming it Gaia because we feel Jupiter doesn't deserve to be a planet.The mass of Jupiter is 318 greater than the mass of Earth. Its a jerk showoff of an astronomical body, thus it doesn't deserve to have a server.

They arent. They are named after gods and places in ancient history.

Yes but my point is that they have so far used every "GREEK/ROMAN GODS" names in the solar system...why not Jupiter?

Because the servers have been following Gods and Goddesses not planets.

They should name the next server after the most important nation-state in the world: Sealand.

http://www.sealandgov.org/

I want a +1. How does one obtain a +1?

Also, what is a +1?

Gaia is actually one of the goddess in Greek mythology.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaia_(mythology).
Its also another word for "land" or "Earth" (which Jupiter doesn't have, Jupiter only has gases) Its also the name of the moon of Jupiter.

The reason why they didn't name it Jupiter is because then SRO will Sailor Moon

Question answered :P

Jupiter is not only gases. It has a liquid metal core.
