2 days ago i sigend up for Kong. It sucks, Armor Games wins hands-down without a doubt. The only good thing i saw were the ' awards ' this makes a game fun and interactive to play! winning awards for AP!! So... why isn't this on AG?
And if somone comes up with the usaul " Somone could hack the game, duh " then i will get angry. Maybe just 1AP for a easy award. 3 AP for a medium award and 10AP for a hard award. So yeah. (0_0)
P.S if you have no idea what i'm talking about just play any game ( well, most games will have them ) on KONG to see. You dont have to register or anything. just play a game.
Sorry Danny, but I have to leave it with what Cenere said... :S
See, I participated in a similar discussion in this forum about the same subject and it went absolutely nowhere...
It's simply something that will not happen here on AG as I understood it... and besides, this makes AG original and not 'one of the many gaming websites' out there!!
no offfence to AG but i like kongregate more, it got more people onlne all the time you can chat with you find game MUCH easier and stuff and its easier to get friends since its no live chat here like in kongregate.
Well blubber, just have a look in the threads about a chatbox on AG... then you know why it's something that will never be re-installed here! There are several threads on it in this forum, I believe the last thread about it even consists of several links to the other ones...
And why are you here on Armor Games if you like Kongregate so much? o_O Please understand, I'm not trying to convince you to leave... please, DO stay! The more users on AG, the better I think! It's just something that got me wondering, and it's not only towards you Blubber, but it's to all users that defend Kong in the threads where that name pops up... know what I mean? =)
I joined Kongregate back in November 2007. All I can say, is that their forums are unwelcoming, compared to AGs and that AG develops and sponsors better games.

I Joined Kongregate back in 2006 and i thought.... wow this is a cool game site and i was right maybe their Foru m isnt really good, but there you can search on anything and find anything on there here you can only find games. so if i wanna see if someone i know i here i can find them.

That is Kong's trademark. It is their pride and joy: A chat that combines chatting, highscores, awards and now Kredits and game info.
If we took that idea, let alone just the awards function, we will get quite a few flamers from Kong that will flame this site for 'stealing, 'lagiarism' 'losers who cheat'. It will be a heavy toll for mods to keep them away, and make many good users leave.

I joined Kong in the beginning of 2008, and it was my first adolescent gaming site. I chatted for only my first week, as there are flamers at all times. And yes, the forums are not as tidy, as welcoming and as friendly as on AG. I rowed with quite a few users over my ideas, while here you can debate with words and intelligence, not senseless spam.
but there you can search on anything and find anything on there here you can only find games. so if i wanna see if someone i know i here i can find them.
Kong is a true gaming site, I cannot deny it (I play games there too). But other than that it is not as good in AG at keeping a community together that works in harmony. Why, many people made fun when one of the admins of Kong left for good.

I don't see where you're going with this Blubber... this IS a gaming website with a community, nothing more, nothing less... and on a gaming website it is normal that you find only games when you perform a search! So what's your point in this?
On the not being able to find friends, I can only say that that's why you can make a friends list in your profile and so... easily find your friends! =)
If you are talking about a proper search engine to search for everything present on Armor Games, try the Search Engine made by DDX!! That should work just fine for you...

I joined back in Sept 08, and I don't think the forums are unwelcoming. I've found lots of users in SD to be remarkably friendly. It's just that the average age on Kong is higher, so you don't get as much friendliness as you do here in AG, but you don't get as much juvenile BS either.
As for the games, I'd say it's kind of even. AG does have some exclusives, but kong accepts lots of games, and so has some real gems hidden away which AG doesn't have. Plus lots of Kong exclusives get there eventually. That said, the games exclusive to AG are excellent and there are a few really good developers who've made their home here.
Lets just say, Kongregate is better in their way and AG is best by that way
True, I have to say.
this IS a gaming website with a community, nothing more, nothing less... and on a gaming website it is normal that you find only games when you perform a search!
Exactly: A good gaming site with an excellent Community (Both comments and forums).
so i stay here because of personal preference; i've been here so long already, so why not more?
There was a time when I was trying to beat my Kong points with AP (They don't have the same values, sort of biased). But these days I am far ahead on AP compared to my Kong points (Which are easier because badges make points quick and fun).
I looked at kong for a week and didn't like the forum's layout.
Wow, short stay: I found Kong about a year after Kong, through a link on Kong (Their Profile) and I signed up immediately, because I loved how the site felt. I'm happy my first instincts led me to the right place.
