Hi,

I just thought this forum should have an arcade..
It would be really fun.

Just a suggestion

There are enough arcades on the internet already. And that would take away from the professional atmosphere. :P

Im afraid that having an arcade on such a forum as TalkFreelance would remove it's professionalism. Besides as others have stated, there are thousands of arcades on the net.

That's how it's been on sites forums I've visited also, people would like to have a fun little competition to see who could get the most 1st places and then everyone gets bored soon after. If an arcade existed here I might play Tetris every once in awhile but it would be useless to have.

Yes, it would definitely hurt the reputation and professional theme for the site. Games as best left for actual arcade sites. (Hint, use firefox or another tabbed browser and multitask!).

This won't be happening, this is a place to discuss freelance issues.

As others have said, there are plenty of sites online that provide online arcade gaming

An arcade may be fun, but it would be a ridiculous addition to TFL.
