Link to My Games from Forums

by **apwessen** on Tue Feb 14, 2006 5:56 pm

Nothing big, but it would be nice if the top nav bar had a link to "My Games"

i agree, apwessen
i'll try to include that in the next update

Up top? The part that's not really a seperate frame under the address bar?

A My Games button should be added to the top so you can go directly to the my games screen from the forum.

Also, the "you have no new messages" notification should be moved from the Club Forum screen to the same general area.

I know these have already been suggested, but I thought I'd throw 'em back out there.

I'd like to second the PM notification... It really would help. :wink:

by **thegrimsleeper** on Sun Feb 26, 2006 11:38 pm

Especially since some people could care less about the forum...

I just got my ass handed to me in a teams game because my mate couldn't be bothered to check his pm...

of course, he couldn't be bothered to check the Game Chat for a few turns either... :evil:

These are good suggestions, grimsleeper. Now, when you have new messages it shows it in bold right there next to the Inbox menu item.

There is definitely something lacking with forum navigation and I plan to bring the left hand menu into the forum when I have more time.

Lack, you truly do r0x0r the sockdrawer.

Have you thought at all about turning the top and left bars into frames?

by **moz976** on Thu Mar 02, 2006 10:28 am

I think just adding a my games button to the top bar would be the simplest solution. putting a frame for the left bar would make the forum ugly IMO

OK so I am a lazy bastich

Im so lazy while I'm browsing the forums, I don't want to have to click 'Home' up top, then only 'MyGames'

Any chance we can get a 'MyGames' button uptop the forums there ??

You could just open the forum in a separate tab or window. That's what I do.

I find myself, while waiting spending time browsing the rest of the site, I usually open new tabs to do this, but sometimes I click out.

A couple of usability suggestions:

1) put a My Games button between home and how to play
2) have some sort of graphic change when your turn is up. ie. invert the colors of the banner or place an icon in high visibility space so that when a user clicks from one message to the next, and game has advanced, then the user is alerted.

- - - side question - I will be installing the greasemonkey script, and the Firefox auto-reload - do either of these put extra demand on the servers?

im not sure how many people may think this is a goood idea but maybe you should have a tab by the home and how to play that says my games so when your on a diffrent page in this site you dont have to press home and than my games

by **HighBorn** on Tue Jun 13, 2006 3:31 pm

we have a plug in for that te rss feed and the notifier

by **zip_disk** on Thu Jun 29, 2006 4:27 am

It doesn't matter much to me since I have a bookmark on my toolbar but some others might appreciate a direct link to their My Games screen from the forum. Could make the CC banner a link or just add it to the existing site menu beneath the banner.

Priority: Really, really low. 0/5

by **strike wolf** on Thu Jun 29, 2006 9:18 am

I think you might have a really good idea there.

by **gavin_sidhu** on Fri Jun 30, 2006 4:45 am

great idea

by **fluffybunnykins** on Fri Jul 21, 2006 2:44 pm

would anyone else think it cool to have a link straight to 'my games' from the forum?
It could sit up there next to the 'home' button... or even replace it, and then the cc logo could take me home, daddy!
you know, two clicks is just too many :roll:

by **AK_iceman** on Fri Jul 21, 2006 2:46 pm

I think this has been suggested already, but yes i do think it would be better. Dont want to get carpal tunnel from those extra clicks. :lol:

by **HighBorn** on Fri Jul 21, 2006 2:48 pm

ohh yeah carpal tunnel has nothing to do with those 500 extra clicks you do while pages load :roll:

lmao

by **lackattack** on Fri Jul 21, 2006 3:00 pm

this is coming in the next update

by **bretzsky** on Fri Jul 21, 2006 3:26 pm

well I've wired it up to my head so all I have to do is think, no more clickity click involved for me, even though i do click once and a while just to be old-school
