message: Regarding the actions of the person removing details from the history:  Is there a reason to remove the founder's and other individual contributor's info, rather than making it more rich and complete?

replies: text: Take a look at the history and let me know which facts are not accurate.  I would be happy to add that Daniel Goldman and Janice Linden-Reed left in 1997 if that would address what your fundamental concern seems to be.  You can check in with Daniel Goldman, Vinod Khosla, Greg Harper, David King, Erick Hachenberg or Jack Heistand with regards to when the discussion with AOL began, or when the research into prizes began.  If you were part of the discussions in the company, consult your old email or board decks.  That being said, I believe it is all publicly verifiable facts right now.

replies: text: I agree with the approach to divide the history into sections.  Each section should then contribute to the appropriate Wikipedia page.  I don't see why discussions with AOL or research into prizes matters, even if they occurred.  Virtually all Internet content companies wanted distribution via AOL and there were many online games available that offered prizes before Pogo.com ever offered them. Let's get the publicly verifiable facts referenced appropriately and maintain a NPOV.  Monsieurbandwidth 07:46, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Dispute between FixIt2000 and Monsieurbandwidth on the history of Pogo.com

message: I am glad to see that this is being discussed on a talk page, but sorry that the edit war seems to be continuing alongside this discussion. Can I ask both of you to pause your editing of the article for a bit, and particularly to stop reverting, and discuss further. I will try to help if I can. i am an experienced wikipedia editor (and admin) but not at all knowledgeable on this specific topic (although i am a computer professional). Perhaps in explaining your views to me you can make them clearer to each other as well, and come to some agreement or compromise. DES (talk) 19:38, 11 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Third party view

message: I just added a sentence about how only Club Pogo users get to use animated smileys. It should be noted that Club Pogo members get to earn rank badges within games, engage in 2 challenges per week, with an option for a personal challenge weekly of previously offered badges since they began being offered in July 2003. A very important element of this are pogo exclusive games, such as Poppit!, Squelchies, etc. What about the release of Pogo Island? This article is lacking much, due to a dispute between two people. This is an encyclopedia for everyone, and I become disheartened when thinking possible Pogo members may look at this site and not be as informed as they could possibly be. I don't want to step on anyone's toes, but I do have a lot of editting experience (Plus I've been a club pogo member for 3+ years). Any suggestions? WiiAlbanyGirl 03:59, 27 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I really think the Club Pogo section is weakly written, and many additions can be added to this in order to make it substantially descriptive of the benefits of Club Pogo, while being objective. If no one has any adversities to this within the next 5 days, I am going to overhaul it. WiiAlbanyGirl 19:39, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggestions 

message: For the sake of the page name, I think it should stay, but in the article itself, I don't think it's necessary as it is usually referred to as simply "Pogo" without the .com part. When people visit the article page, they'll be able to figure out that the address is pogo.com. --David7581 04:18, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Do you think I should make a seperate article entitled "List of Pogo.com Games" and have all of the games listed?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Aaron122894 (talk • contribs) 20:13, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of Games 

message: Pogo has vastly changed its subscription model since the last time this article may have been update. While minor changes were made to the article that have to do with the free section, there should be a new section that discusses those changes in greater detail then the part where it goes (now available to free members) 67.159.157.197 (talk) 04:04, 18 March 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Restructuring of the article to reflect its current status 

message: I see no indication on the pogo web site re: the UK. Is this no longer correct? Or is there some other UK pogo web site that I did not find? 
I did find a Pogo UK page and it says they discontinued it for the UK in 2013. http://news.pogo.com/uk-pogo-and-club-pogo-uk-sites-set-to-close-on-may-21st-3013/  Does not mention prizes at all for UK residents. So, I have deleted the reference to prizes in the UK. If I am incorrect, someone can cover this topic in a later Edit. Peter K Burian (talk) 19:11, 8 May 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Can players in the UK win anything?? 

message: The article is littered with claims without proper sources. I'll try and find as much as I can when I have more time, but if anyone is willing to help out with sourcing this article and making it more relevant to the Pogo site today, that'd be amazing.
