A few ideas

Post by Balgair »

Probably already been suggested, but a few things came to mind when I was looking at the site just now:

* A link on a character's history page to show other characters claimed by the owner of that character. For example if someone looked at my main's profile there could be a box at the bottom linking to all the other characters I've claimed, showing the same information shown on my "Your Characters" page; name, race, class, level, guild etc. Obviously it only works for people signed up, but it'd be interesting to see people's alts.

* On the Top Contributors page, an indicator of whether those people submit data from European servers, US servers or both (just put E, U, or B next to the name :)) I'm not sure if it's possible, but if it is, I'm very curious to know; just an interesting addition.

* On the bit showing your last 10 submissions (which I really love btw, great feature :)), a note of your total submissions per month for each month - I'm a bit stats-mad, and curious to know how each month compares to previous ones (this could also be done overall perhaps, as well as just for your own ones) Plus I think I'm currently on track this month to utterly destroy whatever my previous best was, if I can just keep it up, so I'd like to know what that best actually was ;)

* On guild pages (and maybe character pages), showing a character's rank within their guild could be nice. I know it won't work for most characters, but where a player submits data, I believe the mod grabs info about the players in their guild from the guild list? If that is still the case, could it grab the ranks as well? If it's not capable of working out what order the ranks go in, the submitter could always update that on the website themselves. Or if that's too complicated, it'd still be nice to say who the guildleader is; maybe add it into the manual stuff you can add in the guild info.


Just a few ideas, nps if they're too complicated to put into practice easily :)

1 - I have thought about doing that, but I am betting there are people out there who don't WANT people to know their alts. So I would need to have a way to let people choose which would be seen and which wouldn't.

2 - Would be a cool idea, but with the way the info is tracked, it's not really feasible.

3 - I agree that it would be nice to show more stats. I'll see what I can do =)

4 - I actually used to display guild rank for those members who I had the data for, but I took it out due to some issues with the data. I need to clean up some things before I reshow that info.

Thanks for the input, I am always open to more stuff to show =)

I *SO* love this idea!
