cosine Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Hey, I was just reading through really old posts, and if you look at the 100,000 posts thread, there are promises of an arcade... gahh where is it!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 It came and it went Well, a long time ago before my time there was one, then around the 100,000 post there was one which lasted a while. Now thinking about it, I can't quite remember why it did go, there must be some threads about it somewhere though! [edit] yep, here's the thread: http://www.scienceforums.net/forums/showthread.php?t=12329 a server change got rid of it... and it never really came back!

5614 Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 Now if you're multiplying by infinity then why do you need to add infinity and times that by a million as well??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecoli Posted October 22, 2005 Share Posted October 22, 2005 IIRC, the arcade section disappeared around the time they were redesigning the new page... before vBulletin v3.5 came out. The arcade section was blocked for a time... (it denied all users access privladges and then dissapeared completely. It was a great loss for this community.

eruheru Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 why isnt it brought back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecoli Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 I know some other forums had to get rid of their arcade sections because they were violating copyright issues... Was it something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nevermore Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 It distracted from the intelecual discussion anyway. If you want games go to http://www.2flashgames.com http://www.gamesofgondor.com http://www.flashplayer.com http://www.gamegarage.co.uk and there are many others.

Dave Posted November 11, 2005 Share Posted November 11, 2005 No, it had nothing to do with copyright stuff. Basically it got borked after a server upgrade, and blike's not keen on it coming back. Hence, it probably won't be back for quite some time, if ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm curious if you guys saw my suggestion on the paid subscription thread. Is it a reasonable idea to open up the arcade for donations to the server?

ecoli Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 It's all about you, isn't it ecoli I don't even understand the concept you are trying to put across in this post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I don't even understand the concept you are trying to put across in this post. The concept would be banter. Clearly the joke failed, and now to confound that failure even further, you've put me in the position of having to explain the joke, which as I'm sure you're aware, will make it even less funny, despite you didn't find it funny to start with, which is quite a feat i.e anti-funny. I don't really need another distraction in my life right now. Could be interpreted as, my life is far more important than anybody else's on here, so you can all go without the Arcade, because I could do without this distraction. To which I say, 'it's all about you, isn't it ecoli.' ROFLMFAO It's the way I tell 'em. Back on topic, personally I'm not too into gaming, I get bored very quickly, and find most games just time killers, and rather pointless. So I'm not bothered if the Arcade is brought back or not.
