This first post will be updated to reflect feedback Last update: 11/21
Chess.com is in many way a social site. When I log-in, I like to immediatly see who of my friends are online. Maybe I will PM them, maybe I will post to a group where they are member, etc.
V3 has, in some ways, degraded the social aspects but it might be easy to enhance?
A) Group Home Page:
The friendly faces (avatars) of newly joined members as well as the hightest rated members of the club no longer appear on group home page. In addition, match statistics and vote chess statistics no longer appears. Furthermore, the "Admins" appears below Group section, match section and vote chess section as is generally not viewable without scrolling.
Groups are foremost about people, so this is a sad loss. But it should be possible to improve the V3 layout?

V3 (Admins not visible without scrolling. No recent or highest rated members or match statistics).
B) Home page
It used to be easy to see who of your friends were online. Now, with just a few notifications, the "Friends" section is below what you see and you have to scroll.
Could the "Friends" section be moved up as the 1st or 2nd item (at least for the classic mode)?
