Honest question: What is the activity screen used for and what value can be obtained from it?

 

It shows ALL NEW messages in real-time as they are being posted in ALL areas of Atari Age. When people spam one section, it makes the whole utility worthless. Many people use the ACTIVITY screen to watch for activity in their favorite areas/topics, or to find NEW areas of interest that they never knew about. Click the ACTIVITY box at the top of the screen, you'll quickly find how useful that feature is. :)

I prefer to use the View New Content button.

Interesting, so it's like a feature to see what's 'trending'? Technically this topic is trending, but probably not proportionally to the number of posts per hour since most are pretty empty posts by few people.

Yeah, if the posts had some useful content and were not just some adolescent game to jack up the numbers, it would not be an issue. But the mindless spamming effects all of Atari Age, and a lot of users. Now that people are aware that this activity effects so many others, hopefully it'll stop, if not, we'll know the true character, indifference or contempt of others the posters have.

Oh, isn't this the "Guess a number between 1 and 100,000" thread?

 

Besides, are there any Intellivision or other video games based on musicals?

And no, I won't believe that all those chess games origin from the musical by Andersson, Ulvaeus and Rice.
