Forums
Many new releases are given their own sub forum where players can share tips and offer help to other players. In some cases, game developers (noted with a bold blue name) will aid in assisting the players. Forums designated for specific games that do not receive active posts for longer than two months are deleted, and discussion moves to the category "Other Miniclip Games".
Like most other forums, Miniclip also houses general discussion forums where users can chat about music, movies, video games, and sports, hold a debate, share and critique artwork, or tell a joke. A staff of moderators (noted with a bold orange name) keeps the forum problem free, by responding to reports and site violations. Overseeing the entire forum is a staff of administrators (noted with a bold green name), employees of the Miniclip company.
Players
A new addition to the Miniclip website is the player's channel. These Miniclip Players can create avatars called "MiniMe's". [1]. Players adds a social aspect to Miniclip.com allowing you to challenge other Players high scores, and win awards for completing certain tasks, both on the site and in individual games. Miniclip Players is currently in beta so is regularly enabled and disabled as new features and bug fixes are implemented.
