[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

they actually have decent games there? usually i just end up getting spyware.

[taleya.livejournal.com]

yeah, I've found some goodies. Mostly mac, but there are a couple interesting PC ones..

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

any search key word suggestions?

[taleya.livejournal.com]

look for the adventure/strategy ones. They tend to be cleaner - everyone goes for the crappy ass puzzle tetris /bejewled clones, so they're loaded with spyware.

I guess the OP missed the disclaimer on the community info page

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

nah... just ran in to someone who didn't understand the question.

How did you not understand:

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

you're throwing this out of preportion.

aparently i missed the "/snark" at the end.

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[irishmasms.livejournal.com]

perhaps.

but any true assistance in this community I would highly suspect.

[ravenshrinkery.livejournal.com]

Gotta love the underdogs. Some of the best stuff ever made can be found here. And yet you actually have to have some clue to run a lot of it. Even more clue is necessary to appreciate it. What a joy.

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

duh.... but i would also consider that techies like US!! are most likely playing free and hacked games then listening to the morons we answer questions to.

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[irishmasms.livejournal.com]

perhaps. but only those same morons would discuss hacked games in an open forum like this

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

which is why i queryed free ones.

[redqueenmeg.livejournal.com]

bubbels! Play bubbels! (Yes, it's spelled that way.)

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[redqueenmeg.livejournal.com]

It's hard for me to read that because of the "it's" grammatical mistake in it, and the "comiserate" spelling mistake. These tend to make me ignore the rest of the statement. Perhaps the OP is having a similar problem.

[ihateemo.livejournal.com]

Aye, gotta love that site. I got Dreamweb from there - brought back some memories, I'll tell ye...

::puts on abestos underwear, and fills the flamthrower with kerosene::

Oh, I understood it. WIth clarity, even.

"Where can I find some free PC games?" is how I understood it, unless you've suddently started talking in sanskrit, and then translated it into english via Manderin Chinese.

I even mulled around for a few minutes of real time (which is close to a half hour of subjective "think time") before deciding to be snarky.

I was under the impression that you had not read the community rules. For tech to tech questions, a bit of groveling is usually in order, unless it meets certain criteria.

Hence, I'm calling this thread frozen, unless someone wants to step it up, in which case I'll break out the Plasma cannon...

Re: think before you shout out dawg.

[abstrak-tokatl.livejournal.com]

nah, i figured it was dead a while back. after i saw the snarky.
