Up/ Down

I was thinking that the Main Page should have a status indicator somewhere, since the game is frequently down for maintenance or the server load or whatever. Here's my idea:

Up

As of Monday, January 5 2009, Erepublik is currently up.

Down

As of Monday, January 5 2009, Erepublik is currently down. Reason: Server Maintenance (Source)

Sticking one of these somewhere (Above the links, in the Welcome box, on Status) in a template would be great. Even better, you can add a bot that queries the servers in the browser (a la moot) that switched the templates automatically.

Just a proposal, but I think it would come in handy. What do you think? --AgentChieftain T / H / E 02:45, 23 August 2008 (BST)

A bot could easily do this work, specially if the two messages are encapsulated, I can write the code. The problem is having the bot running 24/24, a thing I cannot do --Mini "Template boy" Bill wanna chat? 09:44, 23 August 2008 (BST)

I can give admins the code needed to automatically update the wiki page when the server is down --Mini "Template boy" Bill wanna chat? 14:11, 1 September 2008 (BST)

You can do this easier: just do a php generated picture printing UP into a table with a background picture DOWN.--Debildevil 13:25, 25 September 2008 (PDT)

So all you do is get the admins to upload a picture to the site, and if it can't load the backround (Down) will load? ----Raldios (TALK|HIST) 00:52, 27 September 2008 (PDT)

I don't think this could work --Mini "Template boy" Bill call me! 04:32, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

Why wouldn't it work? Whenever it is in "cool changes mode" any page/pic you attempt to load will just redirect you to the "cool changes" page and if it's really down then ofc pic won't load. It's a good idea, try it. --Aryamehr talk 07:42, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

Ooooh, ok, I hadn't understood it. Now I have and I think it could be a good idea --Mini "Template boy" Bill call me! 07:44, 28 September 2008 (PDT)

V1

Wow, I hate the new main page to very lengthy extents.

Why? Propose a new one (in one edit) and let's discuss.... --Belea2008 14:08, 13 October 2008 (PDT)

I liked the "old" one, not any "new" one, just as I like the old Erepublik, not the new Erepublik.

I don't like the Main Page much right now neither, mainly because it seems a bit more confusing when you are looking for specific information. Eg. Info makes the impression you get to find general info on the game and such, but it only represents/explains the info-option in-game. Maybe for the time being, add at least About and use it as an information page for potential players? DaLe 07:37, 14 October 2008 (PDT)

Solved. Mouse over an item... --Belea2008 17:45, 9 November 2008 (EET)

The entire interface of the game has been changed to be a lot less user friendly and a lot more difficult. Where once I could read about general topics like the Politics page, now I have to search through everywhere for a page that remotely represents what I'm trying to look for. It's an OCD nightmare that I can't get over.

FAQ

The FAQ has been updated. I'd suggest to add a direct link to it here on the main page. DaLe 07:37, 14 October 2008 (PDT)

Done. --Belea2008 17:45, 9 November 2008 (EET)

Ugly

The front page looks ugly and bad imo, we should change it to something more colorful and more advanced and hotter with more information, articles, links, images etc. opinions? --Aryamehr talk 00:05, 26 November 2008 (EET)

Any ideas? Move the content of the page to a sandbox and let your imagination flow... --Belea2008 00:34, 26 November 2008 (EET)
