Reputation details no longer visible?

Post by nik592 »

It used to be, when I clicked on a player's profile, under their time/exit penalties, the number of recent games was a link that would list games they'd recently timed out on/been booted from. This no longer displays - is this a deliberate change or an unintended bug?

OK. Now I know it's not just me. I thought I was having browser issues.

You can see it in your own profile, not in others'.

It's definitely a bug. The question is whether the bug is that the details don't appear, or that there is a meaningless "Reputation details:" heading.

It's been broken for awhile. Someone submitted a bug.

I noticed it not too long after I submitted a suggestion regarding the section, but no one voted for it so I'm telling myself it's just a coincidence...

A Player's Profile should be PRIVATE!

Some parts could, some parts shouldn't. What's the point of having a profile otherwise?

You used to be able to see it in others as well. I found it useful to look at the pattern of people's exits particularly in deciding whether or not to red thumb them after they vanish on me. Now I only have the (usually) single game I play with them, which isn't a lot of info to make a decision on.

You can still look at their game history, but that's much less convenient, I agree.

It's more than that. Now you can no longer tell whether someone has a bad reputation because of timeouts or for other reasons. I think that's a serious loss of information for the other players.

Language is a source of misunderstanding. (Antoine de Saint-Exupery: The Little Prince) But it is also the source of understanding - it all depends on how you use it. :-)
