Would you like to see an arcade section?

There are some pretty advanced arcade systems for vBulletin which allow users to play games like Asteroids, Breakout, Space invaders, etc. Would you use a feature like that? Let us know what you think.

Re: Would you like to see an arcade section?

I voted no but have mainly because I probably would not use it. The yes questions relates to the question that I would use it. Otherwise it would be a neat feature on the site and who knows and maybe I Would play a game of breakout.

Re: Would you like to see an arcade section?

I vote no simply because they are something I probabally wouldn't use. Also I really don't see what they would add to the community or the site by having them. Of course it really isn't my decision but those are my thoughts on the matter.

They are basically a tool to encourage people to register and participate on the site. Its crucial that we keep the site growing and conversation flowing. While I understand that people cant post if they are playing games, the ladders might instill a bit of competition among users and keep them active on the site.

What I might do is install one on a trial basis and see how people feel about them. This is the one I was considering. Screenshots are in posts 2,3 and 5.

Re: Would you like to see an arcade section?

I was thinking about an arcade section for my own site a while back and i got a huge response from people saying YES!

Its a great way to unwind and adds a level of diverisity to a site. after you've replied to all the new posts you can go play a game and then check back at the new posts.

I'd say try it, I for one will be playing

If we could incorporate some kind of Vanguard related minigame, that maybe kept track of high scores... that would be cool.
