Scibble Cat Fights

I enjoy playing games 1-14 in Scribble. I stay far away from the "expert" games of 15 and 16.

Thanks Tom for creating these fun cooperative games! (I like muddle too!)

However, I notice a lot of players in games 1-14 being constantly ridiculed and berated for every move they make. Some people are *beginners* and I think a lot of people forget this when playing. Not everyone is a troll. Not everyone is out to ruin a game. The perpetual bad-mouth lecturing and name calling is turning a lot of people off.  I understand the game is cooperative, but some players are extremely over-the-top rude to other players when they make a word play that isn't *perfect*.

I referred a couple of buddies to this game and they couldn't believe how mean some people could be.

I hope I am not alone in feeling this way, but give the beginners a chance.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

Thank-you,
Jay
  
p.s. I am weary of posting this message due to the inevitable attacks. Sad but true. As a webbie often says in the games, "Please, be nice." I agree. JJ.
