EA ruining POGO

You are killing Pogo. I've been on here for over 20 years - yes, since long before even the Club was around. Your changes are and will be be driving everyone away. You never once asked members what WE want. We want public and private chat. We want messaging (email and the guest book). We want minis or decent avatars. We want gifts and tokens. We want all the things Pogo HAD. ALL of the Early Access games are terrible. They offer NONE of the things Pogo has always been known for - and why people have stayed. I remember when I could look on the main page on a weekend night and see over half a million players in Pogo. Now, you're lucky to get 10% of that. Why? You aren't listening to what we've been telling you for the past year to keep. Instead, you give excuses about Java and Flash. Well, guess what? Other game sites have all the things we want without Java and Flash and everyone I know will be leaving Pogo when the changes are complete. And I will be leaving with them. How sad. You should just shut the site down now. Why wait? Oh, and here's a novel idea - STOP making the changes you are and SAVE Pogo. Get rid of the kid-level cartoons and make this a fun, adult game site. You can do it. No more excuses about Java and Flash. Updated internet technology allows you to program BETTER games, avatars, communication and graphics. Early Access looks cheap and childish and like stuff that belongs on Saturday morning kid shows - in the 1960's!
HEADS UP POGO !!
…STOP killing Pogo before it's too late. Early Access is a TERRIBLE idea. Help us. SAVE Pogo. Make it BETTER, not worse. Simply admit Early Access was a bad decision and poor business model and make it a site that will draw people in and keep them - instead of driving us all away, which it IS doing. I can list 4 other game sites that players are leaving Pogo for. As I tell anyone who asks me about these sites - none of them are as good as Pogo was, but they are all far better than what Pogo is becoming. I speak for countless others when I say none of us want to leave Pogo - we've made many friends over the years and that is the main reason we've stayed - but none of us will stay if you make these new changes. Again, STOP killing Pogo. SAVE it.

  • I completely agree !! You just said EXACTLY what I have been wanting to say.  The games are terrible !! Most of the games that I loved with pogo have gone or will be shortly.  They used to have a great variety of games to choose from and now it seems they are all majong and match games.  These changes are NOT what I want to continue to pay for.  I have also been a customer for almost 20 years and I'm extremely disappointed in the changes !!

  • You mentioned other game sites. I would be interested to know what these sites are. Thanks

    Hey @sparkybdj, this thread was created well over a year ago so it's unlikely the original poster will see an older reply like this one.

    I'm going to lock this thread as it's quite old, but feel free to create a new topic if you'd like to discuss Pogo and aren't finding a related thread that is more recent, thanks.
