[Accepted] Change the status page to accurate information.

#1 » Post by Regent » 15 Oct 2018 02:27

Nothing more, nothing less, as the title states.
Referring to this page: https://truewow.org/status?realm=0

People keep hopping into the realms without bothering to read the tiny little word that says "records" on the status page and jump in assuming that we still have over 700 people online with 2 weeks of uptime.

Please re-add the count of the number of current online players on both realms.
OR
Please remove the records section from that page (population & uptime). (it's no longer relevant and it's just a remnant of bygone era).

Thank you.
Rest in Peace,

Perhaps you can remove entire top right side of that page (unless you want to keep "Classes Online") and move current Uptime to the top of "General Information" but rename it to Last Server Restart: x days x hours xx minutes ago..

The list below contains more than enough of information on who is online imo.

I agree with both of these suggestions.

I don't see any reason we should present ourselves as hiding anything or living in fear of what our population is. Nor do I want people to view our website and think we are lying about who we are. We are small, but we are dedicated. Staff and players alike. Better to be upfront, honest, and guide people into seeing why we still have such a dedicated community here even with a small number of people.
Welcome to the new decade! Let's hope the Roaring 20's come with just as much jazz, but a bit less prohibition and Great Depression. 8-)

Implemented. Removed the Records section. Accepted!
Thanks for your suggestion!
