Alright I think this might have been suggest but from the list I compiled I don't remember seeing it. So lets do this.

I go to talk on profiles and I have to scroll for like 10 seconds on my laptop to get the the comments and it's so annoying! I think if the about exceeds a certain about of lines(10 or 20 or something) then it turns into one of those boxes that scroll, don't change sizes like the comment box or the box I am writing this thread in right now. Don't know what they are called. Anyways these abouts are bothersome to be, don't know about you guys. Call me on my being a baby about 10 seconds of my life, but that adds up. Anyways if this is just me then sorry! :P

I think this would make the profile pages a lot cleaner, and get rid of the scrolly issues.

There should be a button to click on so that you can go down to their AP and badges that they have.

I personally would not like to see a scroll bar. Sometimes it is nice being able to see the whole about at once, but I do agree that the art is pretty anoying.

My favorite is when people do these 2 things. They copy and paste the list of Ranks and points, then they make a list of ranks and pute the x in the box each time they go up a rank. Why would you post something like that? You already have the rank helmates right in front of you! why do you need to make a lamer versain of it?

I think there should be a button next to the big bolded word 'About' that either sends you to the comments or the bottom of the page.

Ahhh, now that is a good compromise People can still have their full abouts, but there is a quick way to get past it if you want. Excellent.

Ya, this would probably work better than a scroll box. Considering then if you wanted to read an about with the scroll, there would be even more scrolling than originally.

I don't think you should point out specific users.

In people's abouts they put too mcuh stuff so you have to scroll down a lot to get to their comments.

Yeah i think that is a good idea.

Although, is ten seconds really that much?

Its more like ten seconds every few minutes if you have a conversation.

I like the idea. Don't point our certain users, though. I don't think they will like that.

What the point of putting it on the bottom? That would just make it weird.

Why not just put the about at the bottom?

The point of having the About on the top is putting it above the fold, I would assume. Making them super long just kinda messes with it.
