What's in a profile?

Hi Bluenosesol, i agree ive done that a few times and wanted to know how long someone has had diabetes and how old they are but it says 1 year when a lot of these people have had it much longer. :?

 

I don't think i've ever looked at someone's profile even though i'm nosy. Mine is probably blank

 

Keeping your profile current (and signature relevant) saves a lot of grief and misunderstanding. Go on, you know it makes sense!

 

Just had a look at mine and realised that it didnt give much away, so I have updated it for all you nosey whatsits

 

I meant hard to understand as in using grammar that is even worse than mine! I'm not a fan of text speak as it takes twice as long to read so what is the point?!

 

Sid,

Notice your a guitar player, are you rhythm or lead guitarist ? Use to play the guitar myself once, not in a band just self-taught at home.

No no no no no no no no, yes, its Jim Trott the character in the Vicar of Dibley played by Trevor Peacock who incidentally wrote the 1968 Herman's Hermits hit "Mrs. Brown, You've Got a Lovely Daughter" I'm a mine of useless information like that :lol:

A bit of both Nigel, mainly rhythm but the last band I played in had a singer who played harp (harmonica) and slide guitar so when he sang and played harp I would play rhythm and take the lead breaks as well. Just mess around at home for fun now though

 

Thanks Sis,

Sliding guitar and harmonica in the band, I am thinking country and western here................yes?

I sometimes visit peoples profiles to look at some of their previous posts and often encourage newcomers to do the same with mine. It can save you a lot of time as there are very few truly new questions; chances are, on a busy forum like this one, someone has asked the same or similar question previously.

Similarly, the search button (top right hand corner of the page) is always useful. Before you ask a question, try it on the search bar first, as chances are you will find an existing thread that answers your question fully, without you even having to ask it.

 

Why do you have to ask to include an avatar? Is it vetted first or something?

 

I'd like male/female added to the avatar, as its not always possible to know by the username and would save embarrassment.

Thanks for the reply Steve, I just think it is nice to have something to identify people with!

 

No Blues, Blues/Rock our singer played regular guitar with a slide not a lap or pedal steel guitar common in Country music.

Good point that suzi, I too have been confused on occasion, but then it doesn't take much to confuse me :lol:
