    Same. You can't view profiles while logged out, so I can't verify if the profile looks normal while incognito ala the Something has gone wrong error

    Nah still working, formatting seems fine for me on mobile as well. Though my astoundingly low post count is a bit embarrassing.

    that said while i don't think anyone is posting a sensitive one yet, a reminder that your email is not public information on your profile

    Feel like we should @ someone, but I don't know who the designated adult is anymore amd the FAQ and Reporting thread is among the borked...

  • ChanusChanus Harbinger of the Spicy Rooster Apocalypse The Flames of a Thousand Collapsed StarsRegistered User, Moderator mod
    given you can change your own username, i'm growing a bit concerned about security

    not that i have anything to be revealed here but my email address but still

    I've turned off the ability to edit profiles temporarily. Once I can tell what's happened, I'll turn it back on

    Aw man, I've been legit wanting a name change for like 10 years. One of the letters in my handle isn't mine anymore, and it BUGS ME.

    Happened for me after reading all of the first page and then clicking on next page. I was still able to return to the first page and and actually post something which now might exist on the second page but now I can't go to the tread at all anymore

    Last night both of these-

    https://forums.penny-arcade.com/profile/comments/OldSlacker
    https://forums.penny-arcade.com/profile/Slacker1913

    -showed @OldSlacker 's current profile, now the original shows as an invalid user.

    I was curious how much of the name change was just window dressing, so that seems ideal.

    Inquiry to OldSlacker: Which one do you have to use to login now?

    Geebs that fixes Forums: Did you have to roll the update back, or was that just some new feature you could turn off?

    The edit profile function should be back to normal.

    I'm unable to change my location on my profile. It acts like it saves the new one (even says "changes saved" or whatever), but it never actually changes it.

    Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust
