I wouldn't mind ads there, I'm glad there aren't any in the main forums.

I think a Tech forum might work here, there's a fair amount of conversation about tech stuff in the Club.

1) Honestly, depends on the games!

2) No - It'd be nice if it was something Spurs related, or at least sports related.

3) Technology and Gaming - It was probably the only reason why I was ever in the Club, and it's hard to keep current with threads there so I don't even talk in those anymore.

Regardless of what you do Kori, we can never thank you enough for the amount of attention and support you provide this community!

I'd definitely use the arcade. And it being ad supported wouldn't be a bother at all. High score bragging rights will be lots of fun!

A Tech forum would be cool. I might not post in it a lot, but I'd definitely read through it.

Maybe a graphics section? Besides the funny photochops that are done, there's a few posters here (jalberto,14dave) that have some real skill, and make some amazing wallpapers and sigs. I've seen posters in the past ask for help/advice/tips. It'd be a good place for posters to make requests for sigs/avatars. I suppose this could also be incorporated in a Tech section though.

How about a forum for members to showcase their talents.

I know that carina gino20 does excellent artwork, there are quite a few people who are very talented with Photoshop (mentioned earlier in this thread), musicians, authors, etc.

I think that if people could go somewhere to showcase any talents, it would make the community even stronger than it already is. Since this website is a part of my daily internet use, I know it would be true for me.

Im sure Pacman will definitely be one of the games.

- how about putting a "respect/interwebs reputation meter" of some kind that posters will get from other members for an intelligent post..probably with settings in the control panel if you want it turned on or off (off for trolling purposes so it will not ruin your rep points). I mean, it can help lower the trolling right?

Go for it! Ads in that section are no problem at all.

Yes, I would play but please don't put "games" or "arcade" in the address line because I like to come to ST at work and they'd probably block it out.

Banners would be fine by me!

If I think of anything else I'll let you know.
