Did u not read my complaint, Killer - that's exactly what I DO do - and that's the PROBLEM, not the solution !?
Unless I misunderstand you..... |

Okay, there is new option to comment on games from the game page. The new option will appear at the end of the comments, possibly alongside the button to add-to-favorites.
We also have added new guidelines for comments. No support-type issues should be posted in comments, that is what the Support Forum is for. Also we now have some good comment management tools from the admin side and we are cleaning up some of the spam comments and removing credits of spammers. |

 That new "Add Comment" is surely the perfect solution.
But ..... I must again raise the issue of comments not showing accurately.
I was horrified today after posting this comment: | Quote: | What the instructions DON'T tell you: The number on each Bomb shows
the (minimum) length of word required to defuse it. . . . . So for
instance if you have a "4" bomb, and use it in a 3-letter
word, it won't defuse.
BTW, I'm impressed with the vocabulary of this game - it seems right
up with "real" Scrabble, knowing words like QAT, QAID,
etc. Smile |
to find especially one KEY WORD ("DON'T") has vanished, changing the meaning of the whole thing - and also "QAID" has gone! (Obviously something/someone abhors upper case words, but if so, hey, why leave QAT ?!?) - here's the mutilated version: | Quote: | | What the instructions tell you: The number on each Bomb shows the (minimum) length of word required to defuse it. . . . . So for instance if you have a "4" bomb, and use it in a 3-letter word, it won't defuse. BTW, I'm impressed with the vocabulary of Scrabble Blast - it seems right up with "real" Scrabble, knowing words like QAT, etc. :-)Eagle_Kiwi |

Okay okay, perhaps the New(?) Rule for posting Comments is "don't use any combination of uppercase letters of 4 or more, as it will be auto-erased" - but hey, where are these rules - and even if they were available, who would read them ? SURELY (oops, perhaps I should say surely!?) if something is going to meddle with user input it should TELL (sorry, I mean tell!?) the user as he/she tries to submit !
BTW, I use uppercase (sparingly) deliberately in Comments, as there's no facility for bold/yellow there. |

So that's basically why I leave game comments alone - Gary seems to have those under control, guess I'm fated to just stick with tagging and rating.   |
Thanks! Yes, indeed; I haven't had many problems with submitting comments on games. I have run into problems a few times but by and large; they have been sorted! |
Er, you HAVE been affected Gary - perhaps you just haven't noticed.
One tends to leave a comment then forget it - as you can't preview it or check it straight after posting.
Here's just one example: http://www.arcadeboss.com/game-416-6-Motocross-FMX.html

Please AB, can you give this ongoing matter some attention ?
It's not just me - increasingly I see incoherent comments from others, and compare with what they actually typed, to find they're NOT illiterate idiots, it's just "The System".
No wonder many people choose NOT to leave Comments there.
Latest example:- compare the resultant garbled comment as shown by the system: | Quote: | | NICE I THIS GAME TOO FROM YUP I USED TO PLAY IT ALL THE |
with the quite clear and coherent original: | Quote: | WELL, NICE GAME. I REMEMBER THIS GAME TOO FROM ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. YUP
I USED TO PLAY IT ALL THE TIME. |
