[StargateGirl]

If you are having problems with the arcade, can you please post them here?

Thank You!

Well - I don't know if it's the arcade or my slow puter - but when I play Bomberman - my guy is like going really slow - like something is really bogged down processor wise. (if that makes any sense whatsoever)

It could be that you have many programs hidden in the background. Mostlikely adware. What speed is your internet connection?

[Raevengeance]

it's an ADSL connection - at i don't know what speed

Mine doesn't even show the icons to play the games. I tried clicking the links in people's awards, but they tell me I'm not a priveliged member or something like that. I can't play any of the games.

I haven't had any troubles playing games since you upgraded them!

It's probably the computer because when I play at work he goes really slow. My computer at work is slow.

I see what you are talking about minnie the same thing happened to me today on my work computer. Which is weird 'cause I've played the arcade on my work computer before. hmmm.....

I dont know why, but everytime I play a game that takes a long time to play, like snake and tetris, I get a score and I submit it but then it says Error guests may not used arcade, but I already logged in. I know its not my computer because it has happened to me on at least 6 different computers. Does anyone know why? It doesnt happen to every game, but if I try to play a game that takes a while to beat it always happens. thanks :)

Oh I must have missed it. lol sorry. I should pay more attention.

Nanners - Snake 2 isn't working for me now - I clicked-ed the space bar to start the game - it said "score: -2" then it said "game over restart/submit" (or something like that anyway) - but the snake thingie never appeared on my screen.

[StargateGirl]

I'll check it out 1 sec

try to play it now.

[Raevengeance]

I'm still havin the problem - :'(

I even cleared out my I.E. cache in case that was the prob - it did go longer this time - but I didn't see the snake thingie

[StargateGirl]

Before you click the space bar do you click inside the game first and then click the space bar?

[Raevengeance]

I think I've tried both - clickin inside the game then the space bar and not clickin in the game then the spacebar - but i double check


just double checked - i have to click inside the game area - or hitting the space bar just makes the whole window scroll up - but I tried clicking outside the grey playing area and clickin inside it first - neither worked - I couldn't see the snakey

[StargateGirl]

When I play I have to click inside the grey area and then click the space bar.

If I click the space bar first the window scrolls down.

I tried that - but nothing is letting me see the snakey thing

the game 'starts' but i can't do very well if i can't see the 'apples' or where my snake is.

[StargateGirl]

grr... I have no idea. I could try and delete the game and reinstall it. But I doubt that is going to fix the problem since you are the only one at the moment that is having problems with the game.

hmm.... I'll talk to Luis to see what he suggests.

I can't get on to the arcade!! When I click on it it takes me to the forum's home page!

[Raevengeance]

Les made a post about - a month or two ago - and at the moment the arcade is down. When they did an upgrade to the forum - it took all the add-ons they had added previously off. She just hasn't had the time to reinstall them.
