Escapist profiles...

[FamoFunk]

How often do you have a look at someone's profile, it at all?

Do you look because you want to try and find out more about that person, or to find out what stupid idiot is commenting on the forums?


I nearly always look at people's who've quoted me or written something really bloody funny/retarded.

ITT: Do you care for the profiles and stuff?

I bet for a lot of people, it goes like this:
"*Reads post*
Hrm....
*clicks Profile*

Yep, male/female."

Honestly, I'd kinda like one's sex being displayed along with avatars/usernames. Not necessarily pasted for everyone to see, but perhaps in the drop down one recieves when clicking their username?

 

[SnipErlite]

Occasionally, usually following their name link in a thread to find a post they've made in the past. Or to find out their gender...that's about it really.

OT: Nah, not really. I'll occasionally check a profile, but usually for a specific reason like checking post history or a global location out of curiosity.

 

[DeadlyYellow]

Eh. I typically look for basics: Gender, age, and country. It tends to lend some context to a person's post.

 

[MassiveGeek]

Well, I look on others to make sure I have correct information if I'm gonna reply to them. Or I look because I think they seem cool. -shrug-

Not much more to it.

Roffle! Thanks!
If you play BLOPS a lot on the PS3 then, yes, LOOK AT ME NOW!!!

P.S I looked at your profile now.

I tend to look at people profile if they had befriended. I want to know who he/she is if I going to be friend with them (well I befriend them regardless but I look into the profile to see what similar interest we may have).

Scintillating, wasn't it? I'm thinking about adding a pool or dojo. Maybe resurface the drive.

 

[Berserker119]

I look at one guys profile a lot, because I read every post he makes. Other than that, not much at all.

That would be remarkably useful. I know that I usually only look at profiles to see which gender various Escapist users are.

 

[Dango]

If I find someone's post interesting, I'll take a look at there profile. And sometimes if I'm bored I'll just click around all of my friends profiles, just to see if anything has changed.

How about a pool in a Dojo, yes?

Sod the drive.

 

[Sassafrass]

Every now and then, yeah. Mainly to see what country they are from, so I can adjust my guesstimations on currency accordingly into the nearest £, ? or $.

 

[Casual Shinji]

Sometimes I take a look at someone's profile to compare my looks and social status and see which one of us wins.

I usually lose though.

 

[SeanTheSheep]

Well I think it's already been said. For the most part, profile checking is done for:
Checking gender
Checking nationality
Checking age

And that's pretty much it.

I personally, also use it to check if they're using an anime girl as their avatar despite the fact they're a guy. Usually, yes.

 

[Lord Mountbatten Reborn]

Every so often. Normally depends on the post they just made. No idea why but I use the profile to commence the judging in earnest.

 

[ReservoirAngel]

I never look. Details about someone are frankly irrelevant. What matters on a forum, to me, is what they post.

 

[Melian]

It's nice to learn a bit more about people whose posts are interesting, or who have interesting names/avatars. Other than that; no, I rarely look at profiles.
