Looks good! What does the green text in the black box mean (i.e. the 6 and 65 in the first 2 pics)?

@maudlin27 That was first examples of ratings changes. You can actually see the final format in the next picture

Global rating changes after one game during current session

What about this?

https://forum.faforever.com/topic/3364/visibility-of-a-game-lobby-hosted-by-a-foe?_=1644828214490

Can you make those foe-host lobbies go away?

An option alike "Hide Foe Messages", but instead of messages it will hide foe-host lobbies?

No one seems to be interested in this besides me and that one other person.

@fiercelv there will be options to hide foes messages/games

Some preview of news in Home page

[QuietJoy]

Can i suggest just removing titles for games? Most multiplayer game lobbies don't use them and it would make the game list less cluttered. I often see offensive titles too unfortunately.
If the game list just showed the map, map name ( + version), min and max rating, mods and maybe a cpu max that would be enough.
If no min/max rating was used during setup, then it's all welcome.

@scout_more_often Players is not used to use ratings ranges when they create game. There will be too much misunderstands => community will be more toxicity

[Eternal-]

Actually not bad tho

@Eternal the only issue with your news hub implementation is that it does not seem to be putting the article in order of Importance

Some filters

[MrBeast]

Filter of no gaps, crator would be good addon B)

[Eternal-]

@zxccursed Planned custom maps filter

[maudlin27]

The problem with removing game titles is they often help flag there is no point joining (eg someone has hosted to test something, or has a player name in the title because they just want to fight them, or dont want people with x cpu or y number of games, or will be hosting a ffa or a vs AI teamgame, etc), while all welcome can be used to indicate you’re less likely to be kicked.

If people are hosting with offensive titles then taking a screenshot and making a report would be better than removing all titles.

@maudlin27 could just make it a setting to hide names or not hide them
