Gaming board

I've recently noticed that Daniweb doesn't have a board for gaming discussions. Would this be possible? Surely the point of life is to work AND play?

Would you personally like a games board?

I think that would be a great idea since im having to ask gaming questions in the java forum rather than a specific forum for games.

By the way can anyone gove me advice on how to implement a scrabble computer player?? (Like where do i start, whats the thought process??)

Hello? Can we have some more feedback on this one please? Just a simple Yes or No would be fine....

I would support a gaming board here, but I don't think it really fits the topic of the site. Having said that however I will say that my board also has off-topic areas, as this one does, where such issues could be discussed. I voted indifferent.

I'm against a gaming board. I bet you guys could have guessed that though, because if I was for it, there would already be one LOL. But basically the reason is because gaming forums and gaming sections bring immature high schoolers and script kiddies to the site, and that's not really the type of audience I want to attract.

hmmm, that's a good point dani.

Maybe we should rethink this one?

I think having a message based called "Games" would be good

Right now games are being posted on general discussions and i think they would look better on thier own base!!

Lots of sites have a gaming area and have no issues with it and i think we should also

But still we can surely aim for a "game development" message board, can't we guys....

You know what they say: there's no such thing as bad publicity.
And you don't have to be high schooler to be immature.

My vote is "yes", but I'm not too unhappy for not having more immature ppl posting immature messages around here.
I say what I see. If you find my words offensive, then you find my reality offensive.
