I've been wondering if we're allowed to install scripts. I really want to install the KittoKittoKitto script:

http://kitto.yasashiisyndicate.org/

I don't know if it's a TEXT based online game script, but it is a game script. Help please!

It is an online text based game in php written with MVC framework.
I think that it would depend on if you want to make a small game for yourself or for friends as well.
This text based game can be as advanced and resouce drain as a fully working wordpress website with a lot of viewers etc.

@"un4saken" what do you think about text games written in MVC ?

It's okay as long as it doesn't use cronjobs which run every minute or so.

What if you set a cornjob to perform something every so often like 15 mins or 30 mins ? I know that it could ruin some gameplay, but I believe that could be the only one way of allowing such games like that?
