    Remove the game forum

    It's all postwhoring, and the "games" aren't even games. They're "Last person to bump wins", "1000th poster gets 100$", "The horrible mean insult thread" (and of course it's popular variant "The insult game thread"), "One word, same word", etc.

    And the ones that do have real game to them are plagued with people like gowereinside, Darkomni, etc. postwhoring.

    Maybe you guys could just get strict in there and delete all posts that aren't games or are done simply to increase one's post count.

    RE: Remove the game forum

    Yes. Trash it like the old G-Bin. Who cares if everyone's post count goes down.
    I've noticed recently that I don't even see the people who post there post anywhere else.

    Edit-If a game was really "good," it could probably go in chit-chat(like The Hospital).

          LOL

          Yes someone needs to get rid of it for real. The man reason i went to the game forums to post was for a bet.........If i got 500 posts before my friend got 1000 credits the winner would get $5. Eh a stupid bet, but seemed reasonable at the time. So inconclusion i need 22 more post and they won't be in the game forum. YAY!

            I think the game forum should remain.
            At least there's a place where people can make extremely small posts and not trash the other forums with meaningless one-line's worth posts such as:
            Penis
            XD
            or
            Israel
            And since the Garbage Bin has been somewhat cleaned up in some aspects, I wouldn't exactly count it as an outlet for things like these.

              Or, perhaps, all posts in the Game Forum just shouldn't count toward postcount?

                Do what Spazzbite said and delete all of the crappy threads like that one. Problem solved.

                gowereinside's postcount -everything except like 5 posts rofl

                  I agree. It is a terrible forum.

                    Oh I guess they could keep it and don't let the post count go up so the very select few who want to play games and not post whore can do so at there leisure. Genius! But as for me i get to keep my post count....right?


                    btw: I lost the bet because he said he had them but decided to buy some songs and is demands his $5 bucks and seeing how he is like 2 times bigger than me i guess i will have to pay up*sigh that jackass

                      I've seen this done in other forums.

                        I think that the game forum is some easy way to increase ones postcount. It is horrible. Just go with what Spazzbite said and
