    I answered no. Yes, we have too many games. But it's not fair to delete certain games just because of personal preference or when the games started. Just because an older Gameogre member doesn't like the game that a newer Gameogre member started up a week ago doesn't make it right for him to delete it.

    Forum games are tricky:). I prefer to let most of them stay open unless they are being abused or are exact copies of other games we have.

    Forum games are tricky yes.....but most of them are not "game-like" o.0

    a lot of them are self opinions and otherwise spam beyond all recognition.

    The old games should not be closed for "not being popular" enough. Close spammy ones only.

    I agree with ogreman's previous statement.

    However, it does sometimes get to the point where there are simply too many threads. It's a fun subforum, definitely, but I also agree that inactive or duplicate threads should be closed. The problem with old, unused threads is that often many people forget what they were originally about and they tend to morph into spam threads.

    I do think we have too many. Forum games has the MOST posts out of ANY forum. It is also the youngest forum. Messed up!

    agreed with closing down very similar forum games, They serve no purpose, as forum games are supposed to be fun, unique and addictive. Can't say that there are too many though (considering the active ones).

    Like I said, I agree that there are too many but who wants to be the person that tells someone that their game sucks and will be closed. It's a matter of personal preference so I say unless they are completely pointless (like that one a while back that basically told people to spam) then let them go.
