New rivalry page and the ability to filter rival updates

I don't know about everyone else but I was personally getting very irritated with the rivalry page. It was not nice to look at and I found it difficult to quickly find and comprehend the information I was interested in.

So what did I do?

The selfish thing of course, I devoted some resources to fixing it up so that in my eyes it was awesome :) I am extremely happy with the results and it leaves the page ready for all sorts of extensions in the future. I can now easily browse my rival updates without getting a headache.

Whilst I was re-designing the rivalry page I thought it was the right time to implement the next epic account feature, rival update filters. This was a UserVoice suggestion and it satisfied 12 user votes.

This feature allows you to use buttons and filter your rival updates by
  • new comments
  • new rivals
  • new entries
  • new gear
  • stat changes
You can see what the interface looks like in the screenshot of this post. Everyone should also note that this filtering only works for rival updates made from now on since I have only now started categorizing them.


Anyway enjoy the new rivalry page and the new epic feature, I know I will be :P

Great upgrade. Thank you for implementing this. It helps to cut through all the updates when I haven't been on PoaH in a couple of days and I've got a crapton of updates in my rivalry.
