Oltre alle opzioni basilari, gli utenti hanno anche la possibilità di inserire informazioni aggiuntive, personali. Nessuno di questi campi è richiesto, e solitamente gli utente decidono di lasciarne alcuni (o tutti) vuoti.
- Avatar - An avatar is a small picture or graphic associated with a member. Some forums may allow members to upload or link to external avatars, while others may only allow members to select from a provided set of images.
- Personal Text - The personal text is usually displayed directly underneath a member's avatar when they post.
- Birthdate - When a member provides their full birthdate, their age is calculated and displayed on their profile. If the calendar feature is enabled, it is also placed on the calendar. Particularly self-conscious members may choose to omit the year in which case their birthday will still be displayed on the calendar, but their age will not be calculated.
- Location - A member may choose to give a general idea of their location. It is not encouraged (or wise) for members to give their specific location in the form of an address or lat/lon coordinates.
- Gender - If desired, a member may have their gender displayed. Selecting the blank line will prevent any gender from being displayed.
- Messengers - Members may provide their various messenger usernames or numbers for clients such as ICQ, AIM, MSN, and YIM.
- Custom Title - Forum administrators may allow a member to choose their own custom title. Custom titles are displayed below the member's name when posting.
- Signature - If provided, a member's signature is attached to the bottom of each of their posts.
- Sito web - Un utente può segnalare il proprio sito web fornendo il suo URL ed il titolo.
