I remember that there was a part on your profile that said "Last Active:...." on your profile..It was here when I was visiting from Kongregate like 5 weeks ago, but now it's gone. What happened to it? Did it not work out?

This has been made before and as some of the mods stated it was causing the sites glicthes and make it run slower so they removed it.I did like it though.

Shall I just briefly explain what I've heard was the reason?

It slowed the whole site down majorly, because it was constantly fetching information about when a user had last been online. It just took too much of the site's capacity, so they took it out again.
Maybe it will return, if they can get it to work properly. But don't expect it, at least not anytime soon.

Question answered three times. Only post if you have something to add, or a question about it.

But what was the sites capacity then, because I wouldnt think it could take that much space, even if it was feeding constant information.

The site capacity hasn't changed much between then and now. If we wanted this to work, AG would need a higher capacity and a stronger server.

Maybe it is because of the two leaderboards. They feed constant information and need a lot of space. Maybe they needed to pick between one or the other.

I think you'd need to ask a site administrator that question. I have absolutely no idea, but Shpigford should know, I guess.
And it all depends on how the script runs... Maybe... *is not a programmer*
