Possible issues

 * I personally don't like the fact that Wikia is becoming more like facebook. Because an issue I know I have is that you can get unwanted people viewing your info, and the possibility of ridicule for no reason. And if Wikia becomes more like facebook, and that issue happens, we'll most likely lose users. Because really, who wants to be ridiculed? -- Jä zz  i  15:10, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * I disagree- sociality lets users know that there is more going on in wikia than just editing. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 15:11, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * If you don't want people viewing your info, don't add any. Except for edit count (well and your title if you're a founder, admin, etc.), it's all optional. -- Fandyllic (talk &middot; contr) 26 Jul 2011 8:15 AM Pacific
 * The information shouldn't be here, people can add their own information to their userpages if they'd like to. They don't need a guide to add information. Especially not a guide that's some giant thing on your screen. It's pointless. -- Jä zz  i  15:18, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Adding to my point of having it collapsible-- Tama 63  15:19, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * The Info Box will be to big and will take up to much of the Userpage Tama 63  15:36, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * It's never a good idea to give out your name or hometown on the Internet anywhere. The closest I give is that I live in Pennsylvania. Lemme tell ya something, Motor Ed, Rath is so much better than you! 15:38, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * You can leave it blank or have a silly one like a pineapple under the sea-- Tama 63  15:40, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * You dont need to give away any info if you dont wanna. TheBen10Mazter (Talk -Blog -Contribs) 15:41, July 26, 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment By Danny "The information that you add will only appear on wikis that you've contributed to. Wikis that you've never been to will just see your username and avatar, as they do now. As folks have pointed out, you can share whatever information you feel comfortable sharing."
