Hey everyone. Since the new layout started, there have been quite some problems, and this is NOT a thread about to discuss them. There's an extra one already. A thing I wondered about was, why aren't there any notifications or alerts/pop-ups for important information? PLANET stated, that there was a test-phase for the new layout, which ran under new.speedrun.com. Not sure about it, but this info as well as knows issues such as the current problem with requesting games or incorrect/weird ordering of in-game and real-time runs in some games, may simply be brought to the people so they don't have to look at the forums for every little detail. Some people may only be "users" which don't interact with the forums at all, so that would be quite neat.

There doesn't have to be a super complicated system for it, I think even a simple message in the current notification system would make it quite easy to make people aware of stuff easier without much efford.
