@AMslimfordy Would it be possible to add a text field to the friendship request like the options at Linkedin, for example, 'because I admire you're walkthroughs', or 'I like your comments' I noticed you because…'
I would like to give a reason myself why I want to be friends and sometimes wonder why people want to be friends with me. I want to add that I don't have any idea about the technical implications of this request.
-
Noted.

thanks and happy holidays!

Hi @AMSlimfordy, not sure if this has been asked before, but is there a possibility to have the PMs at the main site to describe the recipients of the PM when the PM includes more than 4 people. Cause I have a PM with 4 friends and it just states "Conversation between 5 Recipients and you." Kind of weird, cause there are only 5 people in the conversation (4 of my friends and me), but this says 5 + me.
It would make my worrying mind a lot less worried to be able to check if I send the invitation to the right friends after I hit send. -
I'll take a look into this. Thanks.
-
I miss this feature almost every day: How about if when you open a group, there is an option to return to your groups or all groups? Is it already there, and I'm just blind?
-
I am still working on improving my scores on older levels of ABO, but on so many of those levels there are few comments, and not much even in the archived section. I know the Daily Challenge mostly focuses on newer levels, and that makes sense, but if we could have say, a weekly challenge for those older levels that would be great. There are many levels where there is barely a word, if any, from the top 100, or even top 200 scorers, often leaving me and others wondering how some of those scores are even possible. Maybe a weekly challenge for each of the AB games?
-
@mvnla2 Click on "Community > All Groups" via the main navigation bar.
-
Yes, I know, but it would be easier to have something in the group you're in. Maybe I just being lazy?
-
I think an additional link would be repetitive.
-
@AMslimfordy Ever since you've started making Mighty Eagle walkthroughs for every level, I've found it increasingly difficult to find ME walkthroughs since they're all just piled up by which game they're in. Could you please classify them into episodes like you do with traditional walkthroughs?
-
OK, for the non-web-meisters -- What do you mean by "check out the tag?"
-
Just noticed that when you go to your groups, the "last active" time and date doesn't seem to be related to either your activity or any activity on the group??? I've even tried refreshing several times.
-
Slim -- Thanks for the explanation of tags. I'd never even noticed them before, let alone look at what they link to.
-
I would like to see ABN come up with score addict achievements for the episodes (especially in ABo & Seasons) that don't have them in GC due to point limitations.

I have a bug report and a question
Bug:
When I start a new discussion and hit the cancel button, I get a page not found message. The link goes to http://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forum/forum/discussions
That link should probably be http://www.angrybirdsnest.com/forum
Question:
When a highscore looks fishy (a plausible score from an unlikely user), what's the correct method to request verification. (Flag it as fake??) -
@burpie,
You can flag it as fake, but I think I remember slim saying that that was not the quickest way. I think he said that if you make a comment on the walkthrough page that that would get his attention quicker. I personally don't like to do it that way. I prefer the flag method. Mainly because it does not add anything to the strats on how to complete the level. -
That is correct sparty, vandals can be flagged via comments, others should be flagged via the leaderboard and will eventually be investigated.
-
I can vouch that Slim acts on things when he sees a flag. I flag someone or other virtually every day, lol.
-
Truly speaking I wasn’t Reading all 472 previous posts but my idea is to separate android and iOS possible score enters cause not all of them are available through these platforms.
It will be also great to have a possibility to mark that mighty eagle (falcon, …) is done. For those who don’t want to beat 3 stars scores there should be a possibility to enter score with number of stars achieved. Generally I think this site is great. I treat is as my backup :)
-
To be able to filter leaderboards by platform has been mentioned before. But I'm not sure I understand your reasoning, since iOS and Android have the same levels for all full apps.
We are a bit limited with respect to horizontal space. While this option has been pitched before, I think it is becoming less and less likely to be implemented.
Users can enter their score regardless of number of stars it yields. If it is below our listed 3-star threshold, you will know it is 2 stars or less. -
I meant that not all the apps are available for both platforms. Mostly for android (free ones) but as I remember there were some levels that doesn't appear on iOS.
When I'm typing any result in a score box there is always a three star indicator or maybe I don't know where to look for it.
-
What you say about apps is certainly true, but we don't have an über-cumulative ranking system. The farthest we go in terms of comparison is by-app. With that respect, Android and iOS and pretty much identical.
The button you see is a link to our 3-star walkthrough, not an indicator of number of stars earned by your score. -
I wasn't thinking about comparing but rather about "having it all done". Anyway I think that your site is great.
Thanks for all the explanations. -
Glad to answer them!
-
Slim, any thoughts on the ABN team coming up with score addict achievements (for the leaderboards) for the ABo and Seasons episodes that don't have them due to GC limitations?
-
I can discuss this with BirdLeader, but here's what stands in the way:
1) The way "Score Addict" thresholds are listed on ABN's leaderboard is via the achievements listing. Therefore, there is inherent contradiction with the premise. That's not to say that we couldn't tweak the system, but...
2) There's always the outside chance that Rovio introduces an in-app achievements system -- i.e., detach itself from GameCenter. This is certainly not unheard-of, though I'm not sure if it's a project Rovio is/would work on. Or...
3) There's always the outside chance that Apple will bump its GameCenter limitations. Again, no existing indication that they plan to, but you never know.
However, as I said, I can discuss things with BL and maybe create a mathematical algorithm for such things. -
Thanks Slim! I'm just looking for new challenges within the games as I will fairly soon have everything done (except for having all the Falcons in ABSW which will be a while longer).
-
I would like if there was possibility to add walkthroughs and users' comments to favorites.
-
In groups, the last active date refers to the last time someone posted a comment at the top level. It would be super nice if comments posted at lower levels also changed the last active date also.
-
I'm not sure if the calls for "last active" are under our control, but that is not the only trigger. For example, plenty of people who have no comments have "last active" times.
-
True, top level automatic posts, like someone joined or got a badge, count as last active, but they appear at top level. Actual comments made below the top level don't register as last active.
-
While we can change the time it runs, time zones shouldn't make a difference. If you sleep 8 hours a day, you'll "miss" 8 hours of the challenge, regardless of what time zone you're in.
-
I just noticed that posts in the groups use peoples nicknames, but you have to use their user name if you want them to be notified. Can this be fixed?
-
While I'm at it with suggestions, is it possible to fix all pages so that they scroll only below the gold bar?
-
@leggy For now, I think we will stick to 24h cycles, but we will keep these comments in mind if we start leaning that way.
@mvnla2 We may add parenthetical references, as appear on the walkthrough pages. I have also requested that such a feature be added to the admin site as well. For the time being, however, checking the URL on their displayed name will reveal the username. As for the "frozen bar" suggestion, this would present an issue on mobile devices, which are quite limited on space to begin with. -
@amslimfordy, is it possible to fix random links such as somebody typing in, "hello, @all" and then when you click on the @all, it goes to an error page? Also I have clicked on some peoples nicknames, then the rollover button "My Main Profiles" and often it takes me to that error page with the rio birds saying they've taking a trip to rio, or in one instance it went to somebody elses profile??? Only 200 points off of Sling God Slim:D...
-
This forum will be migrated in the not-too-distant-future. Mentions in the forum are less controllable on our end.
-
@amslimfordy, where is it migrating to?
-
The current forum is very separate. It will be integrated within the main site.
-
Great news, there are not very many differences, but I think that the integration will be good for everyone, why is there a number next to friends that says how many friend requests you have only in the forum, and not in the main site? @amslimfordy:)
-
It's everywhere.
-
Yes, but it only appears when you actually have a friend request on the main site, but on the forum it is a permanent feature, even if there are no pending friendship requests, btw, this is not a complaint, I was just wondering if there was a specific reason?
-
May just be a bug.
