RE: Useless info in Profiles.
It is to keep the layout uniformed and clean.

Also, if you intended to not display each item depending on the users profile then you'd end up with a lot of new templates and template calls to show or not show the information.

The way it works are the templates use the variables $memprofile[]. $memprofile['icq'] etc. These are pulled straight from the database. To allow easier customisation and everything the link is built in to the templates and when a user doesn't have an ICQ number the following is applied:
code:
if(!$memprofile['icq'])
{
  $memprofile['icq'] = "None";
}


Why? Because its simple and allows more customisation.

"Picky, picky, picky". I don't really see how it is an issue.
