"About Me" Section

Under our profile, I think we should be allowed to write some about ourselves and maybe post links to our social profiles or websites. This profile could be editable via the Account page. Right now, the profile page doesn't tell you much about a person. Just a thought.

  • I would like this eventually - especially when the game gets more & more crowded.

  • When is this going to be implemented? I'm itching for it.
    Posted 23 months ago by Roxon Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yes. That would be good
    Posted 23 months ago by Tradescantia Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Still waiting...would really like this.
    Posted 22 months ago by Roxon Subscriber! | Permalink
  • This is nearly done — probably next week.

  • -1 because I always leave those fields blank, and, no offense to any of you lovely people, but I don't really care to look up whether or not you like cats or collect antique wrenches. We have the chat system and forums for get-to-know-you activities, if we choose them. I'm aware that I'm alone or nearly alone in this, so no need to flame... I just figured someone like me should speak up. I will make up some bs for the profile if there's an in-game reason to do so, like a "sharing your life with millions of strangers" badge, but otherwise, no thank you.

  • Well, it doesn't have to be "sharing your life", it can be games related informations, like what other games you like, or what you prefer in Glitch. ^^
    I understand your point of view, though.

  • @glum pudding I'm a bit like that my self also. I am a very chatty person and hopefully friendly too. But I'm not really into announcing to much info about my self.[ Seriously you would all think I was a tad boring if you read it anyway] I tend to fill in the Location, with "ON THE SOFA". I'm more than happy to say. Hi I live in England and love Glitch. but that's about it. oh I DO own a cat though :)
    But I DO like the idea of a little bio for those that do have enough to say about them self's so am still +1

  • glum: I agree with you, actually. If I had anything to put there, I might, but... I don't. And I don't really want to put anything there anyway.
    Posted 22 months ago by Houdini Subscriber! | Permalink
  • just a thought: would that make the game more like a social networking site? I mean, when we're playing, isn't it supposed to be the GLITCH world, not the real world?

  • Is it still going to be a 'social' game when it grows up? I always thought the devs tried to push that as one of the main appealing aspectsof the game.

  • To clarify: (1) this hasn't got done yet because other things took priority (but it is still close; just on hold). And (2) it would not be compulsory: one could choose to leave it blank or fill it with wonderful imaginary nonsense or whatever. However, you would see it on other people's profiles … if seeing a link to another player's Twitter account would wreck the game for you then you could always put a bit of tape on your monitor in the position in which it would appear when you are playing? ;)

  • Ugh, tape...I already can't see most of my monitor because of all the white-out I use when correcting typing mistakes.
