A small suggestion

Hi, I was wondering, since OW is a games forum, and all, would it be a good idea to list what games of OW you have under the usernames.
For example, allong with the postcounts, stars and rep points, there's a section for which OW games you've played, so people know what you do and don't know about OW and the games, etc.
Ok, created a duplicate thread trying to edit a poll, sorry guys, have never done a poll before. XD

I think Alcar meant "done" for the delete of the duplicate?

I like the idea very much, but I think the problem is, everybodies would be near enough to same. It's not like a Sims website, where you can list all six expansion packs and stuff packs, Most people on the forums have all the games.

Oh ok, thanks Alcar (And fuzzle guy for explaing it of course)
Hmm, I guess, but since AO and AE are such retro games, ok, not that retro, but you won't find them in stores, you may find newer members not having them.
I guess it would create kind of a privellege or novelty effect, so you can feel special for having it displayed, and having more in your profile post thing

I know a lot about the oddworld games and such but I don't own any of them anymore.

I like the idea, as long as it doesn't make the postbit look too cluttered.

I think that's something that should have it's place in the profile, not in the postbit. I do like the idea, very much in fact.

Having it in the profile seems like it would the best choice, as having it in the postbit could seem just a little too specific of irrelevant.

I'm all for the owned/played Oddworld games displayed in the profile... It's an excellent idea

I think there should also be a star depending on how nice a car you drive. Also a star that is awarded based on different partners you've had intercourse with. Maybe a star could be given for times you've picked your nose in one day.

Or maybe we're just getting a little too complicated. Just maybe.

I dunno about putting a star in your profile depending on those things. My profile would have a lot of stars and it would take attention away from what's important IMO...

You realise, without a doubt, I'd rank 1st.

I was humiliated at my first sexual health check-up when I couldn't recall the number of people I'd slept with. Let alone in the last year. It was horrific.

And then she touched me in places no woman bar my mother has gone before.

It was in that year, so obviously he could have had something happen before the year.
And it's N00b or nob.
