Title: Game room link suggestion
Post by Fritzlein on Nov 1st, 2008, 8:21am
The most accessible links in the game room are the "Community" links in the upper right that one doesn't have to enter a menu to get to.  I propose that the link to "Mob Chat" be replaced with a link to "Commented Games".

The separate chat room for Mob discussion has not been used for months and was only used a couple of times total anyway.  I think it is a good idea to have a chat room just for the Mob, but it doesn't deserve such a prominent link.

Meanwhile, commented games, which are a fundamental and often-used community exchange are either buried in a menu or are two links away from the game room page.  Not long ago there was even a newcomer confused about how to see game comments.  I think newcomers should have a more convenient invitation to this important aspect of the community.
