About me in profile

Hello. I have a suggestion for the support forum.

What if the staff made the profile field called "About me"? I've seen this profile field in many FM forums, and basically what users do (including myself) is take the default "Comments" Profile Field and change the name to "About me" and there the user can edit it however they want, say a bit about themselves, or anything they want.

I've done it in the Forum I am Head Administrator as and it looks like this:

Let me know what you all think. ^^

We can not change the comment field, because it is used for moderation.

And creating a new profile field?

I really do want this. There are some ups and downs but I think overall this would be great.

Poll is currently closed, @SLGray.

Upon poll fix, voted yes!

Poll fixed.

Everyone who creates a poll (suggestion), you need to make sure there is a zero in the box for run poll for.

This sounds like a good idea Smile

I voted "yes" on this. It's up to the person to fill out what they want in this particular field, it's up to them to put in as much or as little as they want. They can also leave it empty if they don't want to fill it out. I would like to get to know people but I ultimately believe they can fill in what they want to.

Do you agree or disagree ?
