iGuest 3 Report post Posted March 1, 2005 Can a member of admin add a new forum, entitled "Forum Games" this forum would be a place where users can play forums games such as word association etc.Also would it be possible to make it so that posts made there would not accumulate posts? (Spam and all that)Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
