I’ll admit- I’ve been getting slightly annoyed by your bio linking as well. Providing a lot of information to a user at first can be pretty overwhelming, so I would recommend you remove the bio link, along with the portion about community made guides.
Oh- I see, his description has a bunch of other info.
Once again… the goal is to not overload new users with info, in fact, that’s why I made the welcome to the forums guide in the first place: To make a single guide that could be linked to a user when they joined, so that they would actually read it
If you send a new user like 10 links, they’re first response is going to be “I ain’t clicking on all that”. So linking a profile with a large description to read, most of which is completely useless to a new user, isn’t the best thing to do.
As for me saying it being overwhelming, it is, and people don’t click the link. Most often, they click the TOS link. How do I know this? Every time someone posts this message, I get a notification, because I wrote the Welcome to the Forums guide that they are linking.
