I am not sure if this has been suggested or not.  I love all the news from titan release to a global event. I was wondering if HCS can put a filter off to the side on home page to sort the news some.  B)

 

For example New titan release or death, global event, temple, medals, and so on.  ;)

 

It is only used on what you click on and it default back to full page when you leave the page. 

 

 

It is not a game priority but I thought for me that like the global events and titan hunting it is hard to see sometimes if titan been killed or not. and yeah exact location is not always easy to find though scout tower does show a lot. :blink:   I like to go to home page to see what is new and what odds and ends is happening in fs.  :)

 

 

I was thinking a bit more about this topic and wonder how many new players might find their way to forum out of curiosity while using the filter to see what is going here in forum. :ph34r:

Front page "log" filtering has been asked for several times already - and should, IMO, already have been implemented.


Homer : Marge, don't discourage the boy. Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It's what separates us from the animals .. except the weasel.

 

Eddie Izzard : The National Rifle Association say that guns don't kill people, people do. But I think the gun helps, you know ? I think it helps. I think just standing there going "BANG" - that's not going to kill too many people, is it ?

 

I don't mean to sound pessimistic, but it seems that everything I eat lately turns to poo ...

I am glad it has been brought up before. I figured HCS is very busy with a lot of update projects. I do hope though that a staff member would make a comment on the filter idea.  

 

I know scout tower tells a lot but if you are new player more and likely you would go to home page which means there is so much information on the page that it is hard to digest what you are looking at. 

 

I know as experienced player I stop by to check up on forum votes and inputs as a shortcut and I will sometimes look there first if I get homepage notice of something posted in my log area of game.  I think when I am gone a few days and such the filter would help me catch up since notifications from homepage does not always tell what is going on just a general note. 

 

If HCS can please respond to this idea would be awesome and if this a straight no way deal that is okay please close the thread with ending comment. Thank you  ;)

I've made a VERY SIMPLE suggestion more than 2 years ago...Just create a new 'box' by the side called 'Tavern Rumours', and keep 'News Update' for things that are really news...So simple and logical.

I can point this out to Hoofmaster. Pretty much yghorbb's idea.

A Tavern Rumours sidebar for the Tavern Rumours.

Leave the News sidebar for the actual news.

Wouldn't worry about it that much unless it's a quick add...From my knowledge it wouldn't take too long but i've never looked at FS code who knows :P. Like to see a stellar app first and maybe some additions to ease those new players into the game more. Then worry about this.
