beta site question

[crazyeagle]

ok you all know im new here right??
well now its time to ask a newbie question ( maybe stupid but thats me )
ok where / what is beta site ?

ok i asked now stop laughing @ me  :D

[Stinkerbell]

Pogo uses beta testers to test games before they are released.  You have to sign up, apply, be accepted to beta test, then you're sent a link to the site with a password so you can log in and test the games.

Not a stupid question at all !

Pogo will run an announcement when they are looking for new beta testers.  Keep your eyes open and then apply!

beta site is fun fun fun.

[~Sassy~]

I wanna be on the beta site  I don't know where it is Crazy Eagle but I would tell you if I knew.  :>> I know they let some people Pogo chooses to test their new games they want to have on Pogo. I think once you are selected they give you the website address which takes you to the beta site and you get to see all of the new games and stuff which will be coming out soon. They usually post it on Pogo when they are looking for new Beta testers, so watch your Pogo home page.
Welcome to the forum Crazy Eagle, there are a lot of nice people here. I am sure you will enjoy it. But bring your peace pipe 'cause sometimes you're going to need it.  :))

Pogo puts a BIG ad up on their " new and improved- NOT) homepage whenever they are taking applications for Beta testers. If one of us sees it in time, we usually post something about it, but the notice about Beta testing is always on the Pogo site for all to see at the same time.
Usually there is a window of time to apply, somewhere around a week, usually. They do give you a form to fill out after they ask a few basic questions. They do take people who play the games with autos, as I have been a Beta tester 2 times already and I want my 2 Beta Tester badges ( 2 different Club Pogo accounts) for it, LOL.

I hate to be contradictory (  >:D ) but I saw the announcement on the homepage when I applied and became a beta tester.  Perhaps they list it in several places?

No, we are saying the exact same thing, LOL. I call the " announcements" ads. They are properly called Announcements. :)

BTW, if anyone hasn't seen my new post, Pogo is taking apps for Beta testers right now. Check out the changing ANNOUNCEMENT Screen at the top of the POGO SITE HOMEPAGE. Not here, not anywhere else. Just there.

I applied.

They need me.  They just may not know it yet.

I'm quite sure you will be an asset for them. Question is, do you need them?
Beta testing was fun the first time I did it. The site was up and working and the games were accessible. Not so the second time I was a BT. It was like a whole other site, one kind of like you would expect in the first year of Pogo's existance, with a bunch of rookie programmers.. It was a nightmare. I think maybe I tested 5 games because of all the overall site glitches.
The support staff was the pits the second time too. From what I have read, it hasn't improved. But, good luck, have fun snooping, and hopefully, TIIC  will get their acts together on Beta Pogo.
I've skipped over the Beta site complaints since then, because I know how frustrating it is, but can't change a thing.

I, also, have a question if you are a beta tester do they monitor your computer and what is on it?  I know they do audits if you win a money prize, but do they do this for beta testing.  I really don't want to have to evict Uncle Otto and all his family from their home, they seem to enjoy it so much  ::)

[xgingerx]

i hope someone here gets to be a tester...we need the durt on pogo and there games lol :##

We've done it! Thanks to players like you we've collected enough applicants to get the Pogo™ Beta Test Program started. Unfortunately this means we had to close down the registration process but don't fret, we'll open up registration every 3-4 months so stay tuned and look for the invitations!

Thanks for your support!
