I wonder if anyone actually bothers to make a profile here, much else update it. I just updated mine since I usually update every other profile I have for other sites like myspace.com.

I usually change the quote in my signature every month or two, and occasionally the status line, too. But other than that, none of the information really changes at all. (It took me a couple of months before I remembered to change my occupation to "Ex-Student". )

I updated the information in my profile a couple months ago. Some of my interests have changed since I last messed with it, and I needed to change my occupation from "overworked college student" to "unemployed college graduate". I also changed my signature for the first time in years.

Well, I just updated my E-Mail address. Not much else has changed for me since joining (well, I've gone through two or three girlfriends, moved to a new apartment, got a new car and now I'm older, wiser and much meaner, but that's not stuff that my profile includes anyway).

I updated my signature in January after having the same one for nearly two years. Other than that, there's nothing I have really updated (not even my status line, which has remained the same since 2001.

Regularly. Which considering what it says, isn't a good thing.

Every time my status line changes, I general swap out most of the other information as well. Also, I always read the profiles in the recent visitors list when they don't show up as having been visited recently. Some people put neat jokes in, and I do not want their hard work to go unnoticed.
This reminds me that I was about to do this.

I usually read the profiles of all the new posters. Helps give me a sense of what they're going to be like. Of course, most people's profiles are stripped to the bare essentials: publicly displayed name, status line, and date joined. Boring reads, really.

I haven't touched my status line since... um, before Capps said no to having HTML in them. I still can't believe I've been a member here for almost six years.

I only update my profile when I need to, which isn't very often. Otherwise, it's just to change my status line or my signature, which also isn't very often.

Interesting... I guess not everyone goes through with major changes in their lives on a yearly basis. I know that I had to modify my profiles in myspace.com and here since I quit the USU Board of Directors in December 2004 and became a Quality Control/Game Tester for a multimedia firm. I get to try the new PSP next Monday and be paid to play games on the cell phone and test console and PC games all day. Besides that, other things also changed like my look.
