Hey folks.

Um... I've been away from Armor Games lately, y'know? Busy and stuff. But now I've noticed something I missed before...

Every account used to have, among other info, the current rank of the user. It used to say:

" [USERNAME] is a x year old Male/Female in [location] and is ranked x out of y users."


Yeah, so... troll me for not noticing it earlier or not being around when the changed occurred or was commented upon, but...

Why was that info removed?

When that happened?

Um... it'd be of much help if any of you could explain to me what happened.

Thanks.

Quite some time back. They were fiddling with the stuff and it got taken away. Testament to how long ago it was that I don't quite recall the exact reason though.

I don't believe we were ever informed as to why this feature was removed. One of the many things that just up and vanished during the maintenance that occured this past spring.

it was probably during the spambot crises, that was enough of a distraction to keep us from noticing that

"Wahahahaha! Now that they're all distracted by those pesky spambots, we can finally remove their precious rank, location and age features! It's the perfect crime!"

Even if that was the admins' thinking, which is doubtful, it didn't really work because people noticed the feature was gone within hours after its removal.

It was probably removed accidentally somehow in the process of eliminating the adbots.

actually i was just thinking that it might have dissapeared around then because i think that was around the time that i noticed it was gone and i didn't see it being reported in the forums so that's my explination
