If you mooch about on the Special Reserve and Freeola sites you'll find little problems or annoyances. e.g. why can't I do this, I can't understand that or couldn't we do the other.

So we would like your comments in this BUG TEST. An extra prize will go to the person who contributes the most to improving this site with little tweaks or solutions.

LITTLE TWEAKS are the operative words. You will not win anything for suggesting that we spend £35 billion on a re-design.

You must post your comments under this topic (or the similar one on the Playstation 2 forum) to stand a chance of winning.

Good luck


The Winner will be decided on Christmas Eve

Our refined search is being updated.

To clarify it at present:

Refined search gives you two alternatives. You can either pull down a menu (to limit the search to say PC games) and enter search words, or the start of words. Or you can just click on any of the wide variety of links.

If you have problems with searches can you tell me exactly what you have had trouble finding?

Their advanced search is confusing, they need to make it simple and easy!

Jimmy yu say a search box would be good but if yu think about it it would be arful. Take the search engine they have at the momement. It has to be improved in order for it to work.
Otherise Nice idea JIMMY

Perhaps Reddies could be given for every so many good posts that a person submits...this would help keep loyalty and stop newbies running away and never comming back!

Possibly it could be done but wouldnt that involve some sort of forum search engine???? I think what Idea is implemented would be up to the Webmaster, and what they can do with the site.

I think a search facility where you could search for an article,post by author, date or title would be great but I believe the go back 10 pages suggestion is easier to implement.


Is there any progress on the alphabet on the cheats page Tony???

How about giving a game to everyone who makes a post. That would make people like the site more.

Oh you'd go out of business, well that's fair enough.

In that case i don't know, the site's allright i suppose. It does seem to be slow to update sometimes though, but you've probably covered that (well i wasn't going to read through 11 pages of suggestions. I'm too lazy). Anyway, the most important thing is fair prices and useful reviews, which you already have (except you only seem to have 1 reviewer... is this right? That would be a good addition).

Ah well, enjoy your extra game whoever has better ideas. (Will this mean that they will win it in addition to the winner on the day they get it or will no one get a game for their post?).

Hmmm, i seem to have more questions than answers. Guess that's allways the case. Have fun folks.
