[1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6], [7], [8], [9], [10] and [11]. Damn, that's a shitload of new references. I'll take a few days to integrate this stuff into the article. Shrumster 21:51, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Vandalized

Everything under History has been clear by some douchebag. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.246.197.150 (talk) 21:09, 6 June 2008 (UTC)

Browser Based

This should be covered by browser based —Preceding unsigned comment added by Atomic1fire (talk • contribs) 23:12, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

Commercial?

The current page says that Kongregate is NOT commercial. However, the site's intent seems clearly to be to make profit, thereby making it commercial. The ads are one clue to this. The $5,000,000 (yes, five million dollars) a company has invested into the site is another. More info on the $5 million: http://erts.bloggingstocks.com/2007/08/17/kongregate-fun-and-games-with-5-million/

Chat section

Can somebody clear this up? Most of it clearly doesn't belong in an article... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.117.53.10 (talk) 00:49, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

I'll have a look thorough it, see what should and shouldn't be there.

Badge creator

"The main administrator of the site is in charge of creating badges.[citation needed]"

Completely wrong, Greg, the communtiy manager is responsible for creating new badges and challenges. However he technically holds the rank of administrator in the chat and elsewhere. I don't have time to find a reference right now, but as it's already citation needed, may as well be changed. perhaps some mention of greg as community manager. 79.73.23.242

Card game

Should this page talk about the card game at all? While not completed, it's still a big part of teh site, as teh cards that make up the game are a huge attraction (I'd add this myself but I'm not quite sure how I'd go about doing that). 76.84.12.144 (talk) 13:20, 23 January 2008 (UTC)

The awards that Kongregate has won

Wikipedia does not say anything about awards that Kongregate has won, like the two Webbies. -Juze- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.193.133.212 (talk) 12:53, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

How To Kongregate

Whoever is adding "How To Kongregate" shouldn't. That site explains how to obtain badges via hacking and Cheat Engine, and is certainly not approved of by Kongregate staff. --61.68.136.98 (talk) 09:46, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Kongai

Now that it's active, Kongai should really have its own page. While obviously not irrelevant to the main article, it (a) has nothing to do with the purpose itself of the Kongregate site, and (b) is significant enough to merit a separate entry, due to its impact on casual gaming and its impact on game design theory (Sirlin, et al). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.180.76.224 (talk) 19:37, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

---

In the synopsis section I removed this false information (vandalism?): ..."and it is targeted towards children between 6-10 years of age. It is a turn-based game, in which the best strategy is luck, and it is similar to Yu-Gi-Oh! in the sense that it has very limited action, as well as repetitiveness which leads to boredom."...

I changed the sentences so that it still says Kongai is a turn-based strategy card game. -Searth (guest) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.119.37.27 (talk) 20:01, 3 August 2008 (UTC)

referrer link vandalism

is it possible to get protection for just the link to kongregate's homepage as idiots keep vandalising it by changing it to their referrer link.... —Preceding unsigned comment added by UltraMagnus (talk • contribs) 08:21, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
