I'm not sure how this was on the old site, but I've noticed that forum/customizing profiles seem to be totally separate from Got Plot creator profiles, which seems strange to me. Shouldn't those be linked so users can immediately see everything another user has done? It also seems strange that--unlike with most forums--there doesn't seem to be an option to see what specific posts/comments a particular user has made. (tbh I mostly find this useful in tracking my own posts, because I don't see an option for that either.)

How come there isn't any creators links anymore? I keep looking and I can find it anywhere... Am I the only one who can't find it?

Do you mean the Browse by Creator? It's part of the custom search:

@Cap: I was commenting regularly on those Blast customs ever since I came back, though I definitely don't comment on all of them since I'm not into the really old figures lol

It's funny seeing the basefigures change over the years, I wonder what action figures will be like in 20 years.

I wouldn't mind a "Random Custom" button too.

I hope Blast from the past section make a comeback..I used like seeing the random previous customs that use to pop up and sometime re-discover some hidden gems

Really, you guys missed it? It didn't make the cut because of lack of interest. I never saw anybody post any new comments on the blast from the past customs? Did you guys just look and not make new comments?

Well I was one of the few that visited posts & used to comment once in a while...but I do appreciate the realm history of custom figures made in the past and how customization has evolved thru the years. Its like the last spotlight these older customs will get and what made it special is that it was randomly done and picked.

Blast from the Past was nice because I saw ideas that were done before which helped when thinking of more customs to make by either using similar parts or character concepts.

Okay, I see that now, but I don't think there's a way to get from Got Plot back to a user's main profile. Unless I'm missing something, clicking a person's username in Got Plot only displays their Got Plot contributions without linking back to their main profile.

The user link does take you different places based on the context of where you are. I added the Stormtrooper head next to the user's name when you are viewing a Got Plot to match like when you are viewing a Custom.

Sorry, not sure I understand the Profile question. There is only one "Public Profile" for the entire site. It will show everything that the user has submitted to the website: Customs, Got Plots, Comic Strips, etc.

Showing comments by user is something that is on the list to look into adding. However, since the forums is now an integrated part of the website, it would most likely show all the user's comments anywhere on the site, not just the forums

Maybe she means how if we browse comics and click a person's name, we only get shown more of their comics, instead of showing everything they've made, as if we were viewing their entire public profile.
