World of Raids Blue Tracker
It's been a while since World of Raids has released a new feature outside of editorial content, so we're very excited to announce that we now have a Blizzard Blue Tracker here on the website that compiles all of the Blizzard posts from the official forums. This is directly influenced by a poll we held, in which nearly 20% of you said you visit the site for blue posts. We'll continue to monitor our Feedback & Suggestions forum, so please don't hesitate to make your voice heard on what else you'd like to see on the website.
A few quick notes on the tracker:
- The number to the left indicates the number of blue posts in each thread.
- A thread created by a Blizzard employee will have its title colored blue, so you can quickly separate the announcements made by Blizzard from posts they're simply replying to.
- EU and US forum posts are noted by flags specific to that region so you can quickly see where the post is coming from if the blue name isn't familiar to you.
- Blizzard employee names on the blue tracker are colored blue, and clicking on those names will allow you to only see posts made by that particular Blizzard employee. If you want to filter out all the random posts on the General forums and get to the meat of Ghostcrawler's posts, you can, and it's one click away!
- On the post details page, like this one, you'll find the original post (even if it wasn't made by a Blizzard employee), and all of the Blizzard posts in that thread. There are also source links to the first post in the thread, and every subsequent Blizzard post.
Over the next few months we'll continue to not only improve the Blue Tracker, but also add even more features to the website. You can access the Blizzard Blue Tracker here, or by clicking on the Blue Tracker tab in the navigation.
Note: We've removed Blogs from the navigation. While not totally gone, to be frank, they suck right now. They'll become more visible again once they're up to standard visually!
Blue Posts
Sadly there aren't very many blue posts today, as Ghostcrawler appears to be on vacation for New Years. I suppose he deserves it after the posting frenzy he's been on since Wrath's release!
Blizzard Store Delivering (Source)
Blizzard Store is still open for ordering (http://eu.blizzard.com/store/index.xml). However, the deliveries will be on hold from December 30th to January 5th.
We wish you happy holidays!
Ghostcrawler Has Left the Building! (temporarily) (Source)
I'm going to be out of town for a few days. I may not be able to post much so I was trying to put in some extra time tonight. In the past these forums tended to unravel if players thought their feedback wasn't being heard as evidenced by, in their minds, lack of blue posts.
The truth is, you don't need a blue post to make a good thread good. We'll still read it. The sadder truth is that blue posts are often the worse thing to happen to a thread. :)
Recruitment Update
We're going to be closing the World of Raids Staff Recruitment on December 31st, 2008 and we'll then begin contacting everyone after the new year (probably on January 5th). We've gotten a lot of emails so far, so if you'd like to contribute to any of the positions don't delay in emailing us! Find out more here.
