Non-Disney Online Games SmallWorld - New build is online!

[aliceblue]

It's luck of the draw whether you see something bad or not. I saw a lot of obscene things in VMK using dictionary dancing, but I can say I just saw the most disgusting and vile chat I've ever seen in a game a little while ago. This was in a public room. Certain words shouldn't be allowed no matter what, I feel. If I see anything like that again, I doubt I'll be logging back in. Way too offensive to me. And that's a shame because I enjoy the game.

And yes, sure I can block those people's chat. But I don't want to see it in the first place.

Not to be pessimistic, but I figured it was just a matter of time before more people experienced this.

My question is: What is the purpose of the report button? I don't recall seeing anything in the FAQs or help section about it. Has anyone reported someone for offensive/obscene chat?

I guess I assumed that since this game was aimed at adults, our only recourse was to block individual players, but according to the Terms of Service, certain types of posted content/behavior are considered a violation:

I reported a staff member yesterday

It does work, but I know they are only present right now in normal business hours in NZ time, I think they are +14 hours from me here in EST.

Right; I saw that.

Really curious about how they respond in-game to offensive player behavior, though.

As far as "Contact Us", I submitted a question about my deleted character a few days ago, and haven't gotten any indication that they've received it. I wonder if it's even up and running yet.

It's harder to restart a game once I reach this high a score (no patience)...so close to high score list but yet so far lol.

Hi,

Where do you find the high score list?

Does anyone know if the Mini golf working yet? Has anyone been able to pass the Golf mission the last few days? I've tried several times and it freezes after the 2nd or 3rd hole. I thought it would be fixed by now

I really like this game, but I haven't been able to spend a lot of time on it because of work, and some computers problems, but I have been reading all your posts, and looking at pictures you have posted. You have some really great looking rooms. I was wondering how you get the pictures of Disney and VMK for your art on the walls? I haven't done too many of the missions, but when I have time will some of you be willing to help me with the 3 people in my room, and anything else that I need people for? I did ask some people to play pool with me, but they didn't speak english and I really need the Dog Whisper for my dog, I tell her to stay, and she does, but then she doesn't do anything but stay even though I have tried to get her to beg, follow, and some other tricks,all she does is stay...but she's a keeper

Just go up to the game in the Game Planet

Hey all with a Seeqpod stereo, it's a must that you put the Tokyo Disneyland Tiki Room in your default playlist!

This TofuBeast is not happy that she has to sell back some of her furniture just to buy a pool table.

I protest.

The picture frames in the game allow you to put your own pictures in there (you host them on flickr) so many of us have put Disney or VMK shots. If I see you online I'll be glad to come help, but a quicker way is to look in places for a room that has VMK in the title or description. You can almost always find someone willing to help there.
For the dog, make sure you are typing /pet stay /pet here or /pet follow exactly as I have done here. Don't use your pet's name, put pet. Pat her when she does a trick, or before doing a new one. She won't know anything but stay, here, and follow to begin with, but if you keep practicing those she'll learn new ones fairly quickly.

If you click to play any game, you'll find the high score list before you play, and after (if I remember correctly).

I believe they said it will be fixed in the next build, which they were hoping was Friday. Thats their hope at least.

I am totally stuck on the mission for Swarm. I can't score higher than 75,000.



I guess this is what I get for never being any good at Galaga.


Does anyone have any tips?

The way I beat this was to only stay along the outside of the 4 walls. Stay away from the swarm -- go in the opposite direction and keep shooting all the time, all while staying along the outer walls. When you've finally killed all the insects, shoot all the hive blocks (if I'm remembering this correctly).

Oh goodness. I didn't even realize that I could go all around the screen... I definitely thought I only had the bottom.

Thanks, Days. Got it on the first try this time.



I am brilliant. Annnnnnyway....... how 'bout them Red Sox?
