Complete your profile

Your profile is what hosts and other participants see. Filling it in is optional, but a photo and a short introduction make people more likely to greet you.

What you can edit

Field	Notes
Photo	Cropped square; public
Nickname	Public; can be changed later
@username	Public and unique — it is part of your profile address, so think before changing it
Introduction	A few lines about you; public
Gender	Optional; hidden by default
Date of birth	Optional; age and star sign are hidden by default

Steps

1. Open your profile page from the avatar menu.
2. Choose the field you want to change and edit it.
3. Save. Most changes appear immediately.

What is public by default

• Always public: photo, nickname, @username, introduction.
• Hidden until you open it: gender, age and star sign, your participation history, your followers and following lists. Each has its own switch in the privacy settings.

Common questions

My change disappeared. Text and images you post are checked automatically. Clear violations are rejected straight away; borderline content can be reviewed afterwards and, if rejected, reverted to the previous value — you receive an email when that happens.

Can two people have the same nickname? Nicknames are not unique, but @usernames are.

Do I have to fill everything in? No. Gender and date of birth can stay empty.
