General Discussion - GGG Post Tracker (To Better Equip You to Stalk the Devs) - Forum

" rz2yoj wrote: So today I spent a few hours throwing together a tool to track developer posts across the forums. I wanted a one-stop shop to keep myself up-to-date on the word of Grinding Gear. So here's the fruit of my efforts: http://www.gggtracker.com/ I just got it up and running so if you click the link and get a "domain not found" error or something like that you probably just need to wait and try again later. I'm still putting some finishing touches on it which occasionally require restarts (~10 minutes) and the DNS changes may still be taking effect. Hopefully others will find it useful too. Feedback is appreciated. That is all. You have my full respect sir. ! +infinity on idea itself. This is amazing, will sticky it in my Opera tabs. GGG thank you for all the great things you are doing. You have combined every element of all other great Rpg's and joined them together as one Diamond, that will shine Forever. This is coming straight from the heart <3 Last edited by Farystar on Jan 21, 2013, 12:33:37 PM	Posted by Farystar on Jan 21, 2013, 12:33:25 PM Quote this Post
Please actually put the posts inline, so I don't have to click each link. Combine all youtube/news/twitter/etc activity then with those posts, and sort by date. Allow filtering by medium, and also collapsing all full texts to just titles. Here is an example of a good dev stalker: http://www.play4dead.com/ns2/ IGN @dime	Posted by dime on Jan 21, 2013, 1:05:30 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post

A suggestion, what you think about adding integration of not only the POE forums but Twitter and Reddit too ? Chris is a frequent Redditor: http://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/16yqdl/kripparians_summary_of_open_beta_changes/c80rj0q And Carl shares his happiness with the last minute core game redesign on Twitter. https://twitter.com/QarldeV/status/293093995947626497 I'll put that on my to-do for later. :) " dime wrote: Please actually put the posts inline, so I don't have to click each link.

I've only really used trackers on the Curse network (e.g. http://www.diablofans.com/blizz-tracker/ or http://blue.mmo-champion.com/) so our usage is a bit different. The post contents themselves are indexed though so this is certainly something I can do in the future. Stay up-to-date: gggtracker.com	Posted by rz2yoj on Jan 21, 2013, 2:14:21 PM Quote this Post
Thank you man for this! Well done! Add to tabs :) Aaron Ciccheli, a guy who made millions running Diablo and PoE RMT sites, owns a significant portion of GGG. How's that for a conflict of interest? 7.5% of your supporter pack money goes to this guy.	Posted by Pibadi on Jan 21, 2013, 3:11:13 PM Quote this Post

Coming from a friend of the OP, I'll bet if GGG asked rz2yoj to properly implement it on the site, he would do it in a heartbeat. Who knows, maybe GGG would like some contract work done; rz has done many cool contract pieces in the past.. cough cough IGN: Blaze_Ember	Posted by vmrob on Jan 21, 2013, 4:15:16 PM Quote this Post
Thanks OP, really useful.	Posted by SenpaiTypeBeat on Jan 21, 2013, 4:32:14 PM Quote this Post
Great job OP, thanks for the tracker but design is little heavy, thus its nearly impossible to use on mobile. No longer a forum dweller, please use PM for contact purposes.	Posted by ignarsoll on Jan 21, 2013, 4:41:53 PM Quote this Post

What I try to say was I could view the page without a problem but it was really hard to navigate and interact due to my galaxy s2's screen size (It was impossible to read the text without zooming etc.) Maybe everything is fine and the problem is me, I can admit that I'm spoiled by the responsive design trend thanks to frameworks like bootstrap and foundation.
