pet dragons 1 app on fb,
wolfpacks app on fb.

I've never used neither MySpace nor Facebook, so I have no clue what any of the fun applications are. Lol.

How about a DJ Ap

I think that there should be some fun text adventures, for all users.

Zonebbs is fun, and a great place to talk to your frends, but we need some more life, more fun, to pass the time between the time that your first frend logs off, and your second frend logs on.

I would like some good text adventures, maybe even a MUD client to be added to the sight.

Even if your not a text adventure person, there are still games you can play like stones, anagram games, word games, and others.

But if you are, it should be an option.

Goraxis, you make my mouth water. I LOVE text adventures, and am just geting into Muds. (I just started playing Dark Legacy and I realy like it.) I think the zone should also have some fun stuff besides anagrams and hangman and such. I love those kinds of games, but sometimes I just feel like playing another type of game.

like what exactly?

the zone has alternate universe, but nothing is ever done to that.

if we did install yet another text adventure game, what sort of thing would you go for?. i think what ever you choose, the admins will need to keep updating it so that it does not get boring... and that just takes time which they don't have.

as for a dj ap, how would that work on a site like this?

well, you could make an eccessible dj ap, and you could load the sounds from another sight like http://www.freesound.org
I did say a text adventure that everybody can play, including standered members. I don't have a paypal account because I'm not old enough, in Canada, so I would like that, I do like text adventures, and we could even put some sounds in to make it more interesting.
We could also make a chat system in the game.
I love anagram mania and some of the other games, but there needs to be more fun around, while talking about stuff is fun, playing games and talking to people is even more fun.
Also, I think we should make a link to monopoly on RS games if the guy who runs that sight is okay with it, mostly blind people play it, if not all of them, and you can set up privit and public games, with robot players, real players, two different boards to choose from, and a chat feature.
I also think there should be a hotkey for the chat feature on the sight, it's hard to get around so menny edit boxes, especially with jaws.
I think there might already be one, but if there is, I take it back.
I think the admins and everyone else that created this sight did a fantastic job, and keep doing a fantastic job every day.
I don't think the time thing is an problem, it's easy to put a few links in to text adventure sights, and I'm sure they can convince the admins of the sights to let the zonebbs chat system on to there sight, or use there own if possible.
We don't need to use this sight for text adventures, or even build any, we can just put some links in the games heading.
Some games even come with sounds, and all the sight admins need to do is download sound packs onto the server.
I was thinking along the lines of old windows CE tipe adventure games, or muds that we can run off the VIP mud accessible MUD client.

I agree with Dan. Alternate Universe is the closest thing this site has to a text adventure game, and unless it starts getting updated more often, it is pretty boring, and I think others would prove to be the same, unfortunately. I'm all for the idea. I just don't know how much it will get used.
