I am still on the hunt for a safe community to play games and meet people who share common interests AND where there is none of the riff-raff found on other social websites like MySpace and Facebook.
I loved Gamerival and Grab before they changed ownership and got greedy! I had been playing games and socializing at those 2 sites since 2005 - having met the most wonderful, friendly people, many of whom I am still close to today, even though I avoid those two websites completely.
But, I still love playing "my" games almost daily - it is such a great stress reliever! Yet, I have not found the type of website to my liking that allows me to send challenges or play along with others. I have been playing at Bigfishgames, Freearcade, and Miniclips and love them - but I miss the camaraderie.
Recently, still hoping, I checked into 22 sites (some I probably checked before, but it doesn't hurt to double check!) - I found only 11 to be so-called safe.
Here are those results:BAD: (in addition to Gamerival and Grab)
- gaiaonline.com
- pogo.com
- slingo.com
- gamesgames.com
- shockwave.com
- steampowered.com
- spawnpoint.com
- gamesville.com
- aeriagames.com
- king.com
- littlewoodsbingo.com
- bigfishgames.com
- cafe.com
- playfirst.com
- flyordie.com
- casualgems.com
- gamegum.com
- shockplay.com
- fumbbl.com
- spogg.com
- arcadedude.com
- bigpoint.com
Eventually I will try out each one in my desperate search for the ideal game community. If you happen to know of a good site similar to that which I've described above, please, by all means, let me know. I'm at my wit's end! (Hmmm - perhaps I ought to start my own????)
