Hi,
You are not permitted to use free/reseller hosting packages for game servers, but you may use VPS deals for game servers.

IRC servers or any services related to IRC are strictly prohibited from being hosted on any SmokyHosts package.

Looking at such a high demand, i have an idea...

Maybe i can have one very informal forums template and one very professional looking template (the professional looking one will be the default) and then maybe have RPG games embedded only into the informal forums template!

Please comment on the idea...

Actually I think you can do that quite easily with the templates being Exactly the same and allowing members to choose the template that actually have the arcade code installed.

I suppose that would but and using the non-arcade as default will never turn away any of the professional type people.

I, myself, wouldn't really play the games. I have way too many I currently play including games inside games... Stressful. But I suppose it would make quite a few people happy, so I'd say it is worth the shot.

Why not try it, you got nothin to loose. You wont affect the people who are here, the professional ones and you will make the gamers happy with the new arcade.

I dont think that people will find time playing arcade here, but it can added just for the sake of fun and entertainment but not for points.

Some neat professional methods must be got ready for attracting more professional users :)

I personally disagree with the addition of an Arcade (or the like) because it will take away the element of professionalism ...it'll attract annoying users too (as seen on other boards who will just sign up for the arcade and post, well, crap to be honest).

I agree with TheCrymsonLegends first post ;)
