Click someone’s BBB Profile, then their YM Id. This brings up the “Send message to…” window.
The View Profile link there appears substandard to me 🙁
It goes to members.yahoo.com/interests?.oc=t&.kw=xxxxxx&.sb=1 which is really a Member Search, and THEN one must view profile from there.
In some/most cases the Member Search doesn’t even find the person.A simple profiles.yahoo.com/xxxxxx avoids both these anomalies.
Examples, using 2 BBB eagles 😉 :-
Eagle_Kiwi CAN be found
whereas
aneagle001 CAN’T be foundwhile the alternative simpler format finds them all easily, AND indeed DOES show their Profiles, not their “Member Search” results:
http://profiles.yahoo.com/eagle_kiwi
http://profiles.yahoo.com/aneagle001
http://profiles.yahoo.com/reallyoldbastardGood feedback, Ian. That’s the default behavior of our forum software (vBulletin) and I’ll check into whether they’ve changed that in their latest version. I wonder why they did it that way to begin with?
Why not take it a step even further and use this URL to send a message directly to them, opening Y!M (or Trillian)?
??? It has that there already in vBulletin Spike, exactly as you suggest. ???
Though it doesn’t have another option, to ADD this person to your YM list.
I notice that vBulletin DOES have such an option for MSN at least – but I guess there’s some reason the same can’t be applied to YM.Oh, sorry, my fault, I meant to suggest that this be added so you can add them to your list: (heh, got them mixed up)
