LittleMe Jewell Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 @Tommy Linden - The Profile 'About Me' appears to be broken. If we write something in the About Me section and save it, we will then see an About Me tab when viewing our profile: However, if anyone else views the profile, they don't see the About Me section - which seems to sort of defeat the purpose of typing anything in there. This is what my alt sees for my profile - no About Me tab 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garnet Psaltery Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 I just looked, and it's still not there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parhelion Palou Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) It was after 9:30 PM in California when LittleMe tagged Tommy, and approaching 5:30 AM there now. Isn't he allowed a life and some sleep? (I know, for what we pay LL their employees should be available 24x7. ? ) Edited October 12, 2018 by Parhelion Palou Time conversions are such a pain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks - not sure why mine didn't actually "tag" him. 10 minutes ago, Parhelion Palou said: It was after 9:30 PM in California when LittleMe tagged Tommy, and approaching 5:30 AM there now.

Phil Deakins Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) He would, or should, have got it. Unless something has changed very recently, those tags don't usually stay orange any more. I'm surprised that the one that Love created has done.

Phil Deakins Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) @LittleMe Jewell test ETA: huh! Maybe it's changed back to how it was in the beginning. Edited October 12, 2018 by Phil Deakins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleMe Jewell Posted October 12, 2018 Author Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Does it make a difference if you just type the name without actually selecting it from the list that usually pops up? Testing: @Phil Deakins (typed, not selected) and @Phil Deakins (selected from list) Yes, that seems to make the difference. I'm pretty sure I simply typed his name and didn't actually bother selecting it from the list since I knew the spelling was correct.

Phil Deakins Posted October 12, 2018 Share Posted October 12, 2018 (edited) Interesting. I'm pretty sure that even when selecting from the list, it hasn't usually stayed orange. It did at the start, but then it stopped doing it. Sometimes it stayed orange when posted, but when you came back the orange had disappeared. And sometimes it was orange while you were writing a post but the orange vanished when posted it. I noticed it because I always prefered the orange.

Administrators Tommy Linden Posted October 12, 2018 Administrators Share Posted October 12, 2018 If I am not mistaken, we actually turned this feature off, as it would require a fair amount of additional moderation on our part. I don't recall this being a utilized feature before, but if I am wrong, and everyone has been using the About Me section up until this point, please let me know. If not, then I stand by my original thought in that it was intentionally turned off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solar Legion Posted October 13, 2018 Share Posted October 13, 2018 (edited) If it is shut off, it shouldn't be able to be filled out. As far as usage is concerned ... I cannot speak for anyone other than myself: I've used it to make my sig line a bit more clear while adding a tiny blurb. Personally I find it far more useful than knowing who visited a given profile or who a user is friends with.
