Ability to use the 'Back' button

Just logged on to find my character had been killed. He had been attacked by two different natives. Naturally, I was curious, and looked at the first native's profile. I then tried to go back and view the second native's profile, but the combat messages with his name were gone. It would be nice to have the ability to back up one screen and check the other profiles and information on a screen. --Meatiershower 17:17, 10 March 2006 (GMT)

  • If using firefox or safari, you can probably middle click (if you have a 3 button mouse), or right click and then "Open in new tab/window". That way the profiles open in other windows and you don't lose the messages. --Simon 18:46, 10 March 2006 (GMT)
    • Yep, that one works with firefox on a right-click.MorkaisChosen 16:11, 16 March 2006 (GMT)
  • I don't think there's any way to accomplish this functionality because you are technically reloading the game.cgi page by traveling from it and back to it. The game.cgi is a dynamic page so it won't retain the information if you refresh the page like that. Making all the movement pages static would just become a storage problem when handling static pages for thousands of players. Consider opening profile links in new tabs or new windows as Simon has suggested. (As a side note, in my experience with Firefox, if you stay on the game.cgi page, you can use the back and forward histories to a certain degree.) --Lint 21:46, 10 March 2006 (GMT)
  • Sorry, but I don't think this will ever be available for the reason stated above, you can use the workaround though - it should work in any decent browser. --Simon 11:04, 14 April 2006 (BST)

Beak up this article?

This article is getting semi-long, and I'm always afriad I'm going to delete something when I'm adding my comments to it. Do you think we should beak it up into diffrent parts like they do daily on UD? -Che 03:44, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I am active over there, and it gets complicated without a large and wiki savvy community tending the changeover from day to day. I agree with you, though, these pages are going to get cluttered soon, and coming up with a method to maintain them will be much easier when it is still a smallish community. Maybe we need a seperate suggestion thread for wiki maintenance and governance?--Nosimplehiway 16:17, 10 January 2007 (UTC)


Move to Implemented

If there are no objections, i'll move the Talking Parrots and Statistics: New Statistics suggestions to Implemented. --Frisco 16:19, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

  • Go for it. I started moving some of the implemented things over to the Suggestions:Implemented the other day. It was slow going though finding which parts to move. I did however split the Implemented page into groups of 10 suggestions in an attempt to make the pages smaller. Put newly implemented on the main implemented page and then we'll bump the 10 oldest off to /4 when it reaches about 15. --Simon 13:02, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
