Getting Reacquainted With Old Friends... Can I Change The Default Questions In The Classmate Profiles?

So, it's been 10, 20, 30 ... no, 50 years?  Can't be!  Wow, how times have changed.  We need to do some serious catching up and your high school web site can help you do just that.  Of course there are the message forums and message center areas for your classmates to communicate, but how about helping them to really build out a great profile?  How?  You can customize the questions that your classmate answers when they join the site.

Aside from all the default questions of contact information, where they live, occupation, etc.  Why not ask all the questions that matter to you most.  You can ask questions about the your high school years.  Sports memories?  Favorite teachers?  First dates?  But also ask about things that will help connect you to the years since you have seen your friends.

We have assembled a list of suggested questions that you can add to your classmate profiles page by going to the Profile Generator.  Many of these questions have also been suggested by other admins as well.  If you have good ones for the list, please chime in down in the comments area.

Here's our original list of suggestions: Where do you live now? Where else have you lived? If you could build a second house anywhere, where would it be? Still have family around "your area"? How often do you get back to "your area"? Would you ever move back to the area? Do you still see/talk to/hang out with any classmates? Who? What did you do right after high school? What do you do now? How did you get into that? What did you want to do or think you were going to do when you finished high school? Past jobs? What did you always want to do that you haven't done yet? High points of your life since high school? Married? to whom? When? How long? Kids? Grand kids? What do you like to do in your spare time? Any vices? Travel much? What's the farthest you've been from home? Favorite place to go? Places you want to go? How old do you feel? Any gray hair yet? What would we be surprised to know about you? Did you have any nicknames in school? Any nicknames now? What's your favorite memory of FHS? Least favorite memory? Biggest thing you would do differently if you went back to your time at FHS?
