Genders in profile
still it would be nice to have genders displayed so users can refer to another user with the correct noun (he/she)
can this be done please?
Re: Genders in profile
Hmm ... And I'm not sure we have space on the mini-profile that you see next to posts. Would it help if you could see this info when you clicked through to the full profile?

You never know if that sweet little butt from that femaly blood elf paladin, that's swaying from side to side in front of you, is played by a 6'2", 450lbs, sweaty, unshaved trucker who smells of onions, stale smoke and beer.
And I think it should by the users decision to display or not display his gender.

Oh, of course. But I don't see much problem with giving that option.Karathyriel wrote:And I think it should by the users decision to display or not display his gender.

Re: Genders in profile
Haha, yeah I saw the little hiccup. Scared me for a minute because it was right after I moved a topic and I was like...
D: I broke it!
Re: Genders in profile
Actually the downtime was for a phpBB update. When I went to set up the Gender field, the board started yelling at me about an important software update that had to be done immediately. I was under the impression that it wouldn't have any real impact on users, but I didn't realize you'd lose your posts in progress. I'll try to be more careful about that in the future.
(And I did the Gender thing after the update was done and we were back up.)

Re: Genders in profile
It's a neat idea. However, the field does say something about the gender of your characters, and I'd think a larger, multirowed field might be better then. Also, it cut off my text, so it's still empty. I had something quite witty though out.

I don't have a truck, I don't drink beer and I quit smoking in 2002.

Showers good!
Okay, I'm done now. >_>
