I think what's wrong with the games is that there are so many ads on the page and it takes forever to load them all. I just tried to play a game again this morning and thought they would have corrected the site by now, but apparently they haven't. I will go back to the Arkadium website and play the games I want. So I won't be seeing ANY of the ads from AARP. I say there should be a limit, and when it starts messing with your site, then it's more than enough ads. Also they apparently don't read the message boards or they would see there are problems. Like everyone else who's interested in selling you something, they don't care. |

In Response to What is wrong with the games today?: When I can finally get a page to load, I end up getting an error message. Everything is incredibly slow. Posted by mitcham Remember to clear your cookies and your cache in order to play the new games . Also, if you need to view the games with larger sized pages, just hit Ctrl and Plus + simultaneously to increase the size of the pages. If you hit them again, it will increase again. When you need to decrease the size, just hit Ctrl and Minus - . ( The control ,Ctrl, key is found at the bottom left of your keyboard, and the + ,plus, and - ,minus, keys are found at the upper right. Good luck with your games! |

They are well aware of the problems with their web site and either don't have the expertise to fix things or the desire. As you can see from the rest of these posts, this is a long time on-going problem. No one at AARP's Tech Department ever reads these posts so to complain is just blowing smoke; but, it does make you feel better. NCTARHEEL In Response to Re: What is wrong with the games today?: tried playing the card games and recently they just don't work. Have tried everything. It is so frustrating. Why don't they fix the site. Posted by jpr1653 |
