Subject: Since Oct of 1999 I have played at IYT.. it was actually the first Game Site I was introduced to..

I still have a few games at IYT.. I appreciate BK and enjoy this site way more.. this is the first site I click onto.. and even though there are more benefits here.. there is one thing I still like better over at IYT.. and that would be the graphics for "Go Moku" aka Five In Line over here.. I prefer playing that game over at IYT, when I play it over here I seem to get lost and not able to think ahead.. not sure why.. I just make more mistakes playing it here..

ScarletRose: I still have about 4 games on iyt as a non member too. It was the first game site I ever played at after reading about it in a pc magazine. And I am glad I did. I met some wonderful people on there. But the wonderful people on there have got less and the weirdos have took over. I am all for free speech but when someone starts slagging everybody off with foul language simple because they can I think it is time to draw the line in the sand.
The ignore is pointless. It is hard to follow a conversation because most of the replies you see are people responding to the one you have on ignore inbetween.
Having said that no doubt some probably think the same about me

Mousetrap: Like many others, my first game site was IYT. Ironically, during a major crash a while ago, a user there introduced me to BK. I like BK more mainly because BK has better options for members and non-members alike and because Fencer is certainly much easier to approach with problems. Plus, IYT always seems to have a major problem every 6 months or so.

gambler104: recently my membership lapsed over at IYT.. I usually continue to support the site.. since it does have some good points still.. anyway.. I was very disturbed to see that most the ads on the site were sexual in nature. I didn't feel it was appropritate for a game site.. and due to mainly being a paid member I was mostly unaware of what ads were being used..

I like the level of speech one is permitted on the message boards.. although, even though the site is more relaxed in that area.. it is often over abused and the rating system isn't any good for it..

ScarletRose: I too didn't renew at IYT,and I was there since May 1999.The boards are a mess and the site is badly mismanaged and neglected.I've never thought much of absentee ownership.Pat Chu avoids his members like the plague,while Fencer clearly takes an active roll in the community.
