which is a bit silly.

An interesting feature, I'd say.

It seems like Facebook's notification feature, tbh. I suppose if you configure it properly, it could be useful. A full "disable" checkbox might be useful.

 

[kineaesth]

Yeah, I agree. Some of the information seems useful, as it instantly shows you upcoming events or announcements without having to navigate to the specific group.
However, I'm not really sure if some of those options are necessary. Would it be better to be able to select notifications for specific people? I have around thirty friends, so someone with 150 friends automatically getting notified of every game, demo and trailer their friends own would be swamped.

 

[Druckles]

I guess for some people they'd appreciate them.

I particularly disapprove of the fact it's on the home page. I miss the instant click to HL2.net chat.

A new interface is hard to master under the influence of alcohol.,

 

[Vegeta897]

Wtf lol. I own all that?

THAT'S MY PRIVACY INFORMATION

Chill out. It's all being fixed.
