I find it takes away from some serious issues that people wish to express. It also takes from the enjoymant of those who just want a bit of lighted-hearted fun and want to get away from the humdrum of everyday life. No offence taken Bye now ........back to the games!!!!

Its the numerous variations of one game that get on my nerves, such as the A - Z games where there are several. I also stress there is no disrespect to the posters. And of course I know we can add other threads to neutralize the games onslaught :o))

	No I agree Muffy a separate board for games would be great, there are a lot of them now so could do with a separate board.

	Perhaps GR would be willing to change the little used history board to a games board

	No it isn't just you. Sometimes threads disappear too quickly off the first page because of the 'games' posts. Jean x.

	Hi Muffy, I agree with you there..Most sites have a separate board for Games. I love adding to the games and always have so no disrespect meant to anyone. xxxxx

	am I alone in wishing that there was a separate board for game threads?.......... I mean no disrespect to the people that post on them.......(they pay their money they post where they like)......however sometimes I just feel they clutter the first page up a bit. Is it just me? xx
