Updates page

I know this might be too demanding, and im sorry if it sounds that way, its just a suggestion. But I think the updates page should be ready in conjunction with the actual update. Like, when the update goes live, it should be already updated. I dont know, i dont wanna sound like a jerk though .

I agree with you here. Thing is, the update page is usually ready in conjunction with the update going live. What your probably seeing is that the page is cached somewhere (probably your browser, but some ISPs do it too) and your seeing the out of date cached version, not the actual page. Shift-F5 usually bypasses the cache and forces a refresh.
/signed. As its already in place, it will take zero work to implement

Due to the nature of upgrades, the update notes would then apear before an upgrade takes place on servers.
This in turn could allow for some really bad exploits (the armor/insignia change, for example), when people who would already be in game at the time would be able to exploit that small window of opportunity to affect running systems.
It may sound like irrelevant detail, but it only took a few minutes after the markets were merged (way back) for some players to buy ectos for dime-a-dozen and make fortunes, while forever changing the economy. This same pattern would repeat itself around every game changing upgrade.
This is why delayed updates, even if for just a few minutes aren't a bad thing.

Markets merged?
Maybe we should also include merging site update releases with RSS? I usually head to my feed first out of habit but it usually updates 10-15 minutes after the website by which time i'll have checked the website or guru forums.
