As I was rolling a cigarette and basically letting my mind wander, an idea came into my head.  Individual mini-profiles, with a mini blog, friends list, user info, etc.  I know that things are a little shaky right now with the recent upgrade and stuff, so this idea is meant as a future implementation.

That being said, the scope this kind of feature would offer in terms of user-interactivity would be awesome.  I don't know if this is even possible, but I assume there will be code out there that can be applied here.  Since when I get an idea in my head a tend to go with it stream-of-consciousness style, I thought of a couple of things that could go into said "profiles"

- Gamercards
- Icon links to site like Twitter, YouTube, TrueAchievements, etc.  (I already have some 45x45 icons if needed).
- A mini blog
- Internal GamingBrotherhood leaderboard rank (not sure if we're still getting that leaderboard JBlaze demoed)


Here is Phlapjax's profile.

The blog could go at the bottom where the big signature space is (which could be moved to just blow the blog or just under the post count and karma count), icons on the left (where the PM link is).  I'm no expert, I'm sure it could be sorted between everyone.

Anyway, enough of my rambling.  Any thoughts?

I like it.

But, to be honest, it would be alot of work. I am already tied up with finishing the Xbox Leaderboard, and also my military stuff. Although, I would have no problem with doing this at a later time (maybe when I'm through with basic, and any free time I get)

I'll let you all do some brainstorming as to what you would like to see.

Hey, far be it from me to add to your workload.  I understand you have a lot to be getting on with, dude.  :smiley:

I'd be interested to see what kind of things YOU'D like to see with such a feature.  And obviously, I'd also like to see what everyone else thinks.
