Who Wants A Forum Dev Tracker?

Drakus · 30th June 2008, 11:45

I was wondering if any one else would like to see a forum dev tracker similar to those found on other MMO game forums? I know I can't patrol the forums 24/7 searching for every dev post for new info and I'm sure most of you can't either. I think having a dev tracker would make a very valuable asset to the Mortal Online community.

Not that I want to create more work for the devs...

Or do I???

If it's not an inconvenience for the Devs, then I'd be all for it.

There is threads with good summaries from Q&A's from random threads. And as i said before, everyone can rate threads. As of yesterday i've started to rate all threads where the dev's answer things with a 5 just to make it easier to find.

hmmm...

Show forum leaders link at the bottom of the index page ?

You click on a dev name (say Mats Persson). It gets you to his profile.

Then you click on Find all posts by Mats Persson.

i tried compiling mats posts into the info summary out of his post-search from the profile... i did the first couple, but now there's like tons of info laying around & i have no idea what goes where and who and how...

the goal of the summary is to try and create a big picture out of the info bits, but with forum postings seeing the posts without the rest of the thread would make loosing sight of context way to easy.

They drop tantalizing hints in the tiniest and most obscure of posts sometimes... A dev tracker would make our lives a whole lot easier

A developer tracker would be welcome!

Would this tracker come with GPS?

OMGPIE · 2nd July 2008, 22:24

Landor why do you want GPS with this tracker?

Landor · 3rd July 2008, 19:31

To make sure that they are at their office 24/7 making this game.

rick · 3rd July 2008, 19:36

mats posts are the only ones that seem to have game details. come to think of it, he hasn't posted in a few days...

Landor · 3rd July 2008, 20:25

yea but he only really post when he really wants too.

Currently a Dev Tracker would be the ultimate bible of spam

Start with the developer group and follow our posts for now.

There you go

I just use the search function. Easy and already built in.

Mukan · 10th July 2008, 06:04

I think a Dev Tracker might be neat, but it wouldn't be nearly as useful on forums like these as opposed to some other games because the Devs here like to actually have a chat instead of simply posting only when they have details.

Which, I think is completely awesome.
