Actually wait. If you give the dude on the right the hair of the dude on the left, then you have me.
Well your avatar checks out.

drmike: Just as a FYI, there's even a thread labeled if your games are out of order.

Usually it's a good idea on any support forum to at the very least take a look at the front page of it to see if your issue is being discussed.

Dartpaw86: I looked, I didn't see that thread, sorry.
What do you mean you didn't see it? You saw it and you followed its advice to the letter.

I do like my star wars memes and it's a little too late for this one.

Breja: Ok, I have to ask since so many people have their panties in a twist over this... how is this such a big problem? I mean, it's been al ong time since we could arrange our libraries ourselves, the only way to do it now is by tags, and those aren't broken, so how is it important how the mess that our collections are looks like exactly at any given point?
Tags aren't the only way to do it, though. You can also organize it by purchase date and title, and now anybody who had it set up like this has it wrecked.

Yeah, you can but it feels pretty worthless. I mean, my collection of barely over 200 games is pretty small by most folks standards around here, and still trying to find a a particular game by purchase date would at best give me a headache :P And it's not like that order is lost because of that glitch. Once it's fixed (assuming it's not "soon") restoring it is just a click away.

I'm not saying this should not be brought to GOG's attention and fixed, I'm just surprised how big of an issue it seems to be. Back in the days of manual sorting I'd get it, it would wreck whatever order you made in your collection and I'd be pissed off too. Today? It's a slight inconvenience at all. I'm still more pissed years later about how ugly the library looks now than about this glitch :D

Purchase date order is still available in the "Orders & Settings" tab on the account page. Once the game is found, then typing the name into the search in the games library. At least two letters are required for the results to automatically update, but the whole name doesn't need to be typed.

Oddly, copy/paste from the "Orders" page to the search field on the games account doesn't seem to work for me.

Alphabetical order does seem pretty much lost for now.
