Section for gameowners only
« on: August 18, 2008, 02:24:39 PM »
Hi,
What i am missing these days is a forum (section) just for people that own a pbbg (browser based game), or are in a high stadium of creating one.

Just a section (sub-forum) where you have to apply first with your game, the admin gives you acces and you can discuss matters with other pbbg developers. This way the chat within these forums is on a high lvl and you can share tricks and other related 'secrets'.

I know it would be a real hustle for the admins to administrate all the incoming applications from people that wanna join this special group, but it would add a whole new level to this website and makes it a spot for game-owners they wanna visit more often. Not some site where you leave after you created a game or found the needed information.

Just an idea :)

Greetings,
Matthieu

I like the idea, though if I wanted in I'd have to get off my lazy but and actually begin work on one instead of trying to plan it to death ;)
Idiocy - Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.

It's a cool idea that should be done. I agree with what Go_on said. It would be a great thing for those of us who have committed to staying here even after we learn to build a game.

I think it's worth to try.

I love the idea!

There are some things I wouldn't share on a public forum, but would share on a semi hidden one.
Also, this would make it easier to find out who owns which game (in case you want to do some business), which is difficult now since most people do not put links to their games in their profile.

I agree.

Questions when you run a game are very different than when you want to create one.

Just give access to anyone that has a game online with at least 100 players.
