Pogo's increasing lack of game playing service

EA Pogo sucks and has for the last 2 years.  Been a member for 10 years and have watched Pogo go from excellent game source to zip if you want to play quality games.  The servers don't either don't connect or loose connection after a move or two.  Games such as Jungle Gin, Daily Sudukow, Scrabble,  haven't been able to maintain a connection for me since July 2021!!  Garbage games geared for Kids are all the only games that stay connected.  Sick of all the issues that Pogo doesn't bother fixing.  Instead, it's concentrating on more graphics, worthless new games like "Luminex" or whatever it is. FIX YOUR SCREWED UP SERVER issues if nothing else.  Don't tell me to clear caches and all that garbage that I have done a million times with no success.  I even switched providers with NO IMPACT on SERVER issues at all.  Instead of being a daily fun, challenging game experience..it's become a maddening challenge just to stay connected.  I am so aggravated with the lack of Pogo's service that I am on the verge of not renewing my membership.  All the money I have spent on buying games, Avatars (which I absolutely enjoyed putting together for the Thursday House of Fame contest which of course is a thing of the past.  When Pogo goes bust, they only have themselves to blame.  I would recommend Game House before Pogo any day.....at least there are no connection drops.  So disappointed and annoyed with whatever this new and"improved" Pogo site doesn't have to offer.

  • I agree with you oio. I cancelled my subscription after 14 years of loyal service and agree that Pogo is no longer the best gaming site on the web. I have no answers for your connectivity issues but would be willing to try playing with you in any of the multiplayer games if you're ever interested. I bought a Nintendo Switch thinking it'd be a better, more reliable gaming system and in some ways it is. Just not as satisfying as Pogo used to be in its heyday.

    My Pogo screen name is Martoman. I'm on every single day despite my complaints and have earned over 17,200 badges during my tenure. I say this to prove that at least at one time I was Pogo's biggest fan. It's still plays a large role in my day to day despite all its flaws. Just throwing out a lifeline because sometimes having someone else to play with who gets you can make all the difference in the world.


    Hope all's well.

  • @martoman129 You now doubt have first hand experience with Pogo from way longer than me, mantoman. I really enjoy Jungle Gin and Scrabble and Spades to name a few of my faves that haven't been playable since last summer. I look for you on the site for as long as I am a member which I believe ends this month. 17,200 badges..WOW!!! Stay well, mantoman. (:>)

    @oioapprentice HI oio, i tried finding you under the user name oioapprentice in order to try sending you a friend request but couldn't find you. Again, my Pogo screen name is Martoman, not Martoman129, in case you'd like to send a friend request to me.
  • POGO WAS the BEST game site for computer play, and now it is HORRIBLE since EA bought them out.  Practically every time I want to play (and that is daily) I cannot play because

    when I click on a game to play I get nothing but a black screen.  PLEASE CORRECT THIS PROBLEM ! ! ! ! ! !   Pogo has GREAT games and a HUGE VARIETY.  I am almost 82 years 

    of age, and my computer games are a great part of my life now, PLEASE,  PLEASE, PLEASE get this PROBLEM SOLVED ! ! ! ! ! ! !
