Conquer Club

• Allow information used for scripts and add-ons to be stored on the CC server for each person's account instead of on the individuals computer.

• I don't know all of the technical stuff of how this is done, but I am fairly positive it is possible because it already stores which forums you read (i.e. When I read a forum at work, it shows up as read at home also).

• It will allow users who use multiple computers (like myself) to be able to use all of their add-ons and scripts to their fullest potential.
• Be able to use snapshots with BOB between work and home.
• Know when there is new chat with chat sniffer even though you are on a different computer
• Allow you to have "watched games" that you don't have to update on every computer
• Probably many more that I don't necessarily use

Greesemonkeys and all add ons need to be installed into firefox directly, just harass your boss at work to allow for downloads.

That's why this is a request for change.

What would be required is an API of sorts that would allow some basic name/value pair info to be stored in CC's databases, so instead of the browser holding the values (bob snapshots, chat values, watched game whatnot) CC would.

Just sayin...

This would take up more space than you think. Unless you're asking them to allow certain scripts to store certain information, you're basically just opening up space for any script writer to use for any purpose - that could fill up fast. I like Andy's idea of integrating these things into CC itself. I love the idea, I just don't think it's feasible as it stands.

I agree. If they get integrated into the site, great. But I don't see some of them happening for a long time. And yes, I am saying only allow certain trustworthy scripts in (not everyone who wants to write one). Only allow scripts that have proven to be useful to many players and that you know people will benefit from this like the 3 that I have mentioned.

I think I'd rather see continued integration of various Bob-esque and other script features into the actual website of Conquer Club.

In short, no. Suggestions don't get "accepted."

This post implies that this suggestion in particular will never be implemented because it isn't a good idea:
