I last used AG 2 days ago (I was not active yesterday), and I just logged on today. When I did so, I noticed the following added features (there may be more):
Activity Showing Dot: The dot to the left of your username has been activated to show activity. A green dot means online while a red dot means offline.
Last Seen Browsing: In between the Member Since and any contact info entries is a new line that says "Last Seen Browsing Armor Games". This only shows up if the dot on a profile is green. However, I am not sure why this feature would be implemented or how it's supposed to work.
New Forum Rank: The following is not an actual rank, but it is a new icon in the Rank position of a forum post. It looks like the AG2 logo (shield only) and hovers as "New User". I saw this on Alpha7912 when he created a thread complaining about the password glitch. When I checked his profile, I saw that he only had 2 AP, which is not enough for Wood Serf. This makes me think that the "New User" rank replaces the absence of a rank for those with less than 10 AP.
Note: There may be other new features. If you see any features added in the last 2 days but not listed in the thread, you can post it in the thread.
Asked Joey about the pirate flag this morning and he explained it to me. It will replace the unset or unknown country flag next time I push out an update.
Great job Boppins! I wasn't expecting any new features until AG3 came out. It was a great idea, especially since this new update will greatly improve the social aspect of the site. How often does the dot and other stuff get updated? Is there an internal clock within the site that counts down before the site is automatically updated with the new information regarding the activity of the users? Or is it almost immediately updated as soon as the person logs out or visits another page?
