This is really a question for ATA, but....

I don't know if anyone has asked it because so many posts are still under review over there.

Why are clicks on a poster's name taking us to their journal instead of profile? I don't want to see journals. I just want to see the basic information like gender and location.

Anyone else agree with me?

I forgot about those little icons next to the name. I was just in the habit of clicking on the name.

Now I feel stoooopid.

It was changed a few weeks ago.

I for one like it, and the profile button is still easy enough to click.

Basically, the Admins have said they're not changing which page it goes to but are planning additional changes which should make navigation of other people's profiles easier.
