If the hover info does come back it will be much better. The previous behavior was an unintended side-effect that I would have to reimplement, and why display a signup number when I could just as easily display the signup date?

I just found out about this. Great new look, not that the old look wasn't great. :>)

I love the new look of the profile page. Thank You for all the work you do to make this the best site in the world :-)

Out of curiosity, whats up with using purple all the time?

"-----why display a signup number when I could just as easily display the signup date?"

I find the signup number interesting in what it actually tells -- the number of people who have registered over the life of FR.com. You can't get that from a signup date.

Also, the instant 'hover' gives me instant information without having to make the extra step of going to the home page of the person.

When a newbie comes on, and is unfairly attacked, there seem to be as many or more in the thread, who defend the newbie, as those who attack.

I just discovered the date imposed under a poster's name. I didn't expect it and was quite pleasantly surprised. Thank You!

But --- I still like the numbers! Maybe I'm just a 'visual' person, I don't know. I also like to instantly see how many people have registered and am amazed how many have joined in the short time since the 100,000 mark. FR.com is the place to be!
