UK site..better?

I am..dhnjkfn.
Why is it that the toontown UK site is much more..fun, and interactive, and has games like a DANCE OFF thing, when the US site barely has a complete guide.
Someone, help me out here.
What is up with that?
Dance off game;

Ah, that dance game is cute!! They also have a memory game..
I guess they're luckier? I dunno. Maybe they think since we get test we don't need minigames on the website? Pssh, we should get 'em.

Oh pish posh.
I just find it unfair.
Like, yes, we have test. Big deal.
But how hard would it be just to put some flash games on the site?
Maybe to play with while updates and stuff are going on.

The main reason i beleive its this way is this.

Because of the low advertising budget that Disney allowed for UK and Europe, there is hardly any TV advertising and it's not seen in the mainstream gaming shops either, well if it is it's very little. Most UK and Europe residents either find it themselves, find out from others who found it or some small obscure article in PC magazine (as I did, originally)

For this reason Disney made UK website bright and colorful, like a big advert for TT when you come across it, this is obviously to make people who find it on net to think, this looks exciting, lets play it.

The US market, is more highly advertised (to my knowledge anyways) and more widely know about, so I assume they don't feel the need to make into an advertisement.

Still US site has lots more plusses then negatives.

1 Up and until recently, there was no clear way of knowing TT was down on UK website, used just lock and was no way knowing what for. I used have to login here to find out exactly what was up
2. The user guide and extra info was added more recently too
3. The Games and Toon Club, were this year additions too, the site been going 3 years tho
4. We still dont have top toons showing
5. Because of its complexity, its often very slow, and goes down far to often.

You can have the UK site, I'd rather have the less complicated, safer and more reliable US site anyday.

As far as I'm concerned, and I'm sure others would agree, its mainly a launch pad for the game, I dont spend much time there, I want it as fast and reliable as possible. If i need info I come here.

Do you live is US? If so why pay extra for UK subs, as far as playing goes, its all the same, anyone can visit UK login site regardless?

We have just moved our toons from our US account to a UK one, and are away to cancel the US account completely. The US ban far too easily, and ive yet to hear about anyone from the UK being banned.
My daughter just got banned twice in a row, once for parking - which is fair, but the second time was for misspelling some words (shes young) to an sf who she is pals with in real life.
Personally I think if you are joined to the US site, you run the gauntlet of being banned for nonsense, and if you are unlucky enough for this to happen to you, then they are never off your backs, and monitor you constantly - fun.
