I got some angry letters this week, but it's all good! Keep it coming!

 

The Red X

Hey buddy, i went to look at your upcoming games but all i see is red x’s. Get it sorted out. - Steve

-Sorry about that. For a while, the screen shots for Socio City were broken. Now they’re fixed. Thanks for the heads up.
- Chris


Re: im poor

HOW DARE YOU PREACH TO ME!!! IF YOU REALLY WONT GIVE ME YOUR GAME FOR FREE THEN YOU CAN DROP DEAD!!! I HOPE YOU GO POOR JUST LIKE ME. ONLY WHEN UR POOR I WONT GIVE YOU A FREE GAME WHEN IM RICH AND FAMOUS!!! -louis

- Sorry you were offended but I still stand by what I said in the last mailbag. Heck, I even have web games you can play for free on this site. So relax and get over it. - Chris


Loser Alert

Okay that guy John [in the last mailbag] is a total loser. I can just picture him at his computer all day and night sitting in his own filth while his girlfriend is out porking every guy in sight and spending his money. John, guys like you make me sick. I gotta IM for you. Why don’t you unplug your damn computer and smell the bloody music buddy! She’s playing you like a [expletive] fiddle! Chris shouldn’t have been so nice. Chris you can’t go easy on these wankers...- Nathan

- You think so? Well the next letter begs to differ… - Chris


Back off!

Chris what gives you the right to demoralize someone like that? He was just complementing you on your game and instead you have to question his relationship. He seems like a sweet boy who finally got to spend some quality time with his girlfriend (thanks to your game no less). Why do you have to mock him? -Jessica

- Well I guess I could have just said, “Glad you enjoyed the game!” and then moved on to the next letter. But this mailbag is about more than just stroking my ego, I want people to write in and share various things and I’ll make my own observations. I’m sure some people will agree with me and others won’t, but that’s pretty much the point of this mailbag. I really want to get to know the people who play my games and have them know more about me in return. I feel it’s better than being just like all the other faceless game sites out there. - Chris


Where’s the hint guide?

When I click on the hints and strategy buton on your golf game, it doesn’t take me anywhere. Is there ever going to be a hint guide or what?- Stan

-Hehe yeah, I’ve kind of procrastinated on that one. I’ll try to get the hint guide up by the end of the week. For now, the hints that are displayed on the loading screen should get you by in the meantime. - Chris


6. Lots of Ads...

I like your web games, but they’re kinda cluttered up by ads. I think I even got a pop-up too... Are they really necessary?-Jan

- I’m not really big on the ads either, but the web games get A LOT of traffic. If I didn’t have any ads on those games, I’d go broke from all the server bandwidth charges. Believe it or not, I’m not getting rich off the ads themselves. Some days they bring in good money and other days they barely cover the bandwidth charges. But again they help keep the games free, so it’s definitely worth having them.

Even still some of the Ads bother me and try to get rid of the excessively annoying banners. But sometimes a few slip through the cracks since the Ad Network I use is primarily responsible for the Ads displayed. We do have popups but they’re strictly on the actual web game pages and nowhere else on the site. [/Full Disclosure™] Also, I’m perfectly fine if you guys use popup blockers. Finally, if you see an inappropriate ad, please drop me a note. - Chris


Santa Klaus

He is near. You must be ready.-Anton

- I guess Mr. Klaus is getting an early start this year? Doesn’t matter to me though, I’ve been a good boy so far. All 29 days of it.- Chris


hi

hey was up nothing much here about you .- ashely

- Not much here either Ashely. Just finishing up another mailbag. - Chris
