    Referrals

    How does one go about getting referrals posted to their profile page?
    Thx.

    When members register, they're asked to input a member's username if they were referred. Each time "maryjane" is entered, the referral is attributed to you.

    See, MJ, it's not us this time. It's their fault. Give 'em heck.

    Next question: can a member correct that post-registration? Jason, can we make that entry in their profile if we knew who was referred by whom if they can't?

    Erm, I'm not sure. Perhaps. But it doesn't really have any functionality besides the number tally so I'm not sure why it's that important…

    Jack, don't make me out to be a trouble maker. I'm trying to maintain my reputation of sweetness and innocence...like the candy my name is associated with.

    Jason, It's not important...I'd been curious about this for a while. I now know how it's done. Call it a public service announcement.

    Maybe we should have a referral contest? That would give it value. The person making the most referrals would win a free subscription to Volconvo Magazine. Then all we have to do is find someone to actually produce Volconvo Magazine.
