Last user activity shown on online/offline info

[Blood Raven]

Hey there guys, i've had a small idea in my mind lately that could prove to be a useful little feature of the hive (well, atleast for me)
Well, you see, when browsing old threads and resources, sometimes you want to see if the users who submitted/commented on a content are still active. However, doing so can be a boring and slow work, since you have to go to each one's profile and look his last activity from there.
You know that little green/gray dot on people's posts that indicates if the person is online/offline at the moment? I'm quite sure you do. So here's my idea. When the person is offline and he/she has a gray dot, if you mouseover it on any of his/her posts it would show the last activity date for that user, the same information that is written on his profile, so you know if he/she's still active users of the Hiveworkshop.
Well, as with many changes, there will ofcourse be people that are against this change (for whatever reasons), so you could add a toggle button in the user options or something, for the people who don't like the changes .(wonder how they'll take Hive 2 then...)
Well, thank you for reading and consideration.

I like the idea.
Could especially be useful in the resource sections. If you have a question for the creator of a resource you can quickly see if he/she is still active. If not, then it is futile to message he/she anyway.
It's just a quicker way to find information already on the site.

If it can be implemented easily I don't see why not.

Agree with the suggestion, it can prove useful to Moderators to clean their respective areas as well.

I actually also don't like Hive 2.
But, I support this idea.

I like the idea. We could even have another extra color before grey, one that resembled activity the last month.

 

[Heinvers]

It would be nice.

I wouldnt care if it exist or not but in some cases.. maybe.

you know, if you hold down ctrl and click on their avatar it opens their profile in a new tab

Middle click does that aswell (in firefox), but wouldn't it be nice if you could see it without opening new tabs? Like if you have to check 10-20 users...?

Hmm. I would like to see the recent activites and such of some users but not all. That would be information overload. So maybe a subscribe like option that gives u info about some users. Just for the initial phase should this idea be approved

 

[-Grendel]

yeah, i do like this. makes checking each user much easier.

I agree with lokharke, if it's possible to make it load on demand, that would be nice.
