Your New Profile
There are so many new features of the User Profile that it deserved its own separate placement.
When you click on Profile and your personal profile comes up, you see a variety of headings. It will always open on Summary.
Summary: The Summary shows you all of the personal information which you entered when you signed up, as well as any custom titles you’ve earned, status updates you’ve chosen to make and your social networking information, if you chose to enter it. It will also link you to your recent posts or threads if you have made any. You will also see off to the right a panel, which shows which members, you are following and who is following you. If you are following someone, and they follow you back, you become friends.
Activity: Your Activity panel shows you everything that you have done on the forum. Posted in an RP but can’t remember which one? Check your Activity.
Following: This allows you to see all of the updates and changes that the people you are following have done to their profile, as well as where they have posted on the site.
Friends: These are those who you are following and who followed you back. Those who are currently online show up first, larger than those who are offline.
Groups: This shows you which groups you are currently a member of.
Notifications: This lets you know when people follow you, or you become friends with someone.
Gift: You can gift things to people. This part of the site is under construction, so you may not be able to utilise its full potential at this stage.
Badges: Badges will be awarded when certain milestones are reached. We will also be taking suggestions on badges that you would like to see.
Karma: Karma is a new feature, which has worked on other sites in the past. You can either Exalt or Smite someone. You cannot do either to yourself. Please be responsible with this function. If people start abusing it and bullying people, we will be removing it from the site.
