I thought the updates looked different. Good idea, the fact that only the world name was shown annoyed me a little. I was like "What is the post about? Should I click it? I don't know...." and I'd sit there thinking for a little while like that.

I'm pretty sure I'll get used to the new feature. But I only have one suggestion,
Can the new updated items have a bolder font? I'm having a little trouble telling the new stuff from the old. They all kinda look the same to me. agh, hopefully it's not just me...>_<
Um, I've been having problems with it not listing all my updates. I go to worlds and realize there are more posts than there are listed, and they don't come up when I refresh.
I had a feeling that somehow the backroom updates would change like this. I like it so far, but I'm still trying to get used to this. Seems like there are new ideas everyday, Can't wait to see what else gets updated! :)
This is so awesome!! Thanks you so much!
Some people have really weird world titles, but no i can read posts based on their tittle which will make it much easier to decide to read it or not lolz
Haha, fun watching the progression over the hours. I like this feature, even if things are a little more crowded. It's easier to see everything at once though and now I know which posts to skip. *cough*
it DID confuse me at first, when i first logged on today, but i found it useful, because now, i don't have to click on their world to find out what they posted about...now i know what i would be reading about before i read it, therefore i don't have to waste time going to a world post i'm not even interested in.

Personally, I didn't really need to see post titles in the backroom. I think half the fun is seeing an update then going to find out what it's about. And sometimes people just put "Insert title here" or something when they can't think of one.
That being said, I like how you just rearranged the set up from what it was a few minutes ago. It flows better with Date, Source, Snippet, Member from left to right.

Well, with the explanation you put here, that sounds cool, when I first saw my backroom just now, it looked so ugly and clutered because of all the black text sticking out in that column.
I'll take your word that it will be nice after we're use to it >.>
What bothers me the most right now is the fact that, if it's a World post, the "snippet" box is left empty - *refreshes backroom for reference* - oh wait there it is.
I am amused how like, EVERYONE'S world name is way too long for that box, though.
Hope you're right in that the annoyance is temporary. :
I first thought that the absence of the World's name would be slightly problematic, but after seeing my extended Dashboard, I can see that the problem is fixed right there.
I noticed someone else's post right before I saw your update, so I was wondering when you were going to post about this new feature. Five seconds later I noticed you had. ; )
The initial confusion was temporary for me; I made a post somewhere specific and when that world title didn't pop up I went WAIT WHAT until I noticed right underneath it was an official update.
So my immediate deduction about what happened seems to have been correct.
awesome........~~! *glomps* it might be confusing without the world title *to help us know which world was updated* but lets hope their post titles will make it up.. XD
